Hello everyone, I'm a dermatologist six magic mirrors.
In the blink of an eye, it has entered the summer, and the hot weather is about to hit, but as always, many beauty lovers are still worried about various skin problems, coupled with the epidemic situation, it is inevitable that the original flaws on the face will be further aggravated by wearing masks.
In the face of oil, peeling, speckles, acne, acne scars and other problems, only by truly understanding, can we find ways to try our best to solve, so that the skin can be white and supple without filters.
Problem 1: Oil out
I don't know if you are like the magic mirror, after wearing the mask, the phenomenon of oil coming out of the skin area covered by the mask is more obvious.
In addition, excessive intake of high-fat, high-protein foods can also lead to significant oil production. If it is accompanied by anxiety, irregular sleep and rest, etc., it will indirectly lead to increased oil production by affecting endocrine.
So how can we improve the "big oil skin"?
First of all, cleaning and moisturizing are indispensable. Facial cleansing can consider oil-controlled facial cleansers, such as Freeprus, Winona, Skin Springs and other facial cleansers suitable for oily skin.
Of course, only oil control is far from enough, but also to do a good job of moisturizing work, daily you can choose hyaluronic acid ingredients, refreshing moisturizing cream, such as: Winona's soothing oil control gel, Skin Spring Mat milk and so on.
Secondly, a light diet reduces the intake of oil, spicy, sweet and milk; regular work and rest, less staying up late can also help alleviate the problem of oil production.
Finally, if you want to improve the "big oil skin" in the long run, you may wish to try photon rejuvenation, which can reduce the oil output and make the skin more delicate.

Problem two: Peeling
Many people complain that the face is easy to peel, the card powder is serious, and it is necessary to constantly repair the makeup, which greatly affects work and life. In fact, this situation is more common in people who are born with dry skin, and occasionally in people who take oral Thiel silk oil control to fight acne.
When encountering this problem, first of all, do not over-cleanse, try to choose a gentle cleanser that is suitable for sensitive skin. For example, brands such as Winona, Avène, and Skin Spring have facial washing products suitable for dry skin and sensitive skin.
Secondly, don't overuse tools such as cleansing brushes and scrubs to remove dead skin because of skin, which will only make your skin barrier more fragile and will not solve the skin problem from the root.
Also, be sure to moisturize well. You can't just apply moisturizing water or use a "big spray", this can only temporarily relieve dry skin, not only can not lock in the "moisture", but in the summer will be due to the evaporation of water on the surface of the face and lead to more dry skin.
After the hydration is over, remember to apply a large amount of creams with moisturizing factors such as hyaluronic acid, B5, and ceramides as the main ingredients. Occasionally, you can also choose a mask based on hyaluronic acid for hydration and moisturizing, such as Kefumei, Fuqing, Winona, Philoga and so on.
Before applying makeup, try to choose a moisturizing cream with a good moisturizing effect to base it, and try to choose a foundation liquid with a moisturizing effect when applying makeup. In addition, if you suddenly encounter a dry and peeling situation, remember to make up makeup in time.

Problem three: Melasma
Melasma is common in young and middle-aged women, mostly in the cheekbones, appearing as similar to oval yellow-brown patches, although there are certain genetic factors, but in fact, sun exposure, long-term oral contraceptives, pregnancy may lead to the appearance or aggravation of melasma.

What should I do if I have melasma? Don't worry, although it is not easy to cure, there is still a cure:
First of all, sun protection is very important, not applying sun protection to go out is equivalent to running naked! For routine commuting, pay attention to choosing a sunscreen with a sunscreen factor of more than SPF 35, and choose a sunscreen with a sunscreen factor of SPF 50 when going to the beach or plateau. Cloudy days and rain should also be painted, and it is better to cooperate with umbrellas and hats.
In terms of skin care products, try to choose products based on antioxidants and whitening, and identify these whitening ingredients: arbutin, vitamin C, vitamin E, and niacinamide. Winona's light translucent white essence, Koyan's white bottle, SK-II small bulb, Xiulico vitamin CE essence, etc., are all good choices.
Of course, the effect of the drug is stronger, and the external use of chirpura (hydroquinone cream), azelaic acid, oral tranexamic acid, etc. are also effective. However, these are required to be purchased after a doctor's evaluation and prescription, and cannot be decided by yourself.
There are also many ways to choose from in terms of medical beauty, and the combination treatment of fruit acid peeling, vitamin C introduction, and photon rejuvenation is also effective.

Question Four: Moles
Long moles are actually not a disease, there is no beauty and ugliness, and it will not affect the life style. How many moles grow and where they grow depend largely on innate factors, of course, if you do not pay attention to sun protection the day after tomorrow, moles will also appear one after another.
Therefore, if you feel that you have a lot of small moles on your face, in order to prevent further growth, sun protection is necessary, you can refer to the previous question of sun protection.
If you want to remove the mole, for a relatively flat mole with a diameter of less than 3 mm, laser removal can be considered, but there is a certain possibility of recurrence and activation of the mole cells.
The radical cure for the mole is surgical removal, and the current cosmetic suturing technique can make the scar very light, and after healing, it is a faint thin line. Surgery is suitable for all moles, but it depends on the individual's aesthetic needs.

Problem five: Acne
Acne is a common problem for many people's skin, and we can divide it into the following types:
Closed-mouth comedones (also known as backlit rashes) – slightly raised rashes of skin color; inflammatory acne (red acne) – red or pustulent acne; acne scars – both red or black.

There are many solutions:
Closed mouth acne
Closed-mouth pimples are mostly caused by blockage of the sebaceous gland outlet of the hair follicle caused by congenital pericocal keratosis, which is the prototype of acne, so it is important to control the closure.
Usually, you can try skin care products containing fruit acid or salicylic acid, such as NeoStrata with main fruit acid, Boleda with main salicylic acid, and The Ordinary or Xiulico essence with fruit acid or salicylic acid.
Of course, you can also come to the hospital for the doctor to evaluate, and then treat it with adapalene gel, azelaic acid, and direct brushing of fruit acid or salicylic acid.
Inflammatory acne
In the period of inflammatory acne, skin care products have limited help for acne, and it is best to use medications, such as topical clindamycin, fusidic acid or bansai gel, which have good anti-inflammatory and anti-infection effects.
Oral minocycline or azithromycin antibiotics may also help shorten the duration of the disease, but they may be evaluated at the hospital first. In addition, the home version of the red and blue irradiation device can also help relieve inflammation.
Acne scars
Finally, for acne scars, early red acne scars and acne pits, you can try creams that inhibit scarring, such as Xiliaoto, KangRuibao, and Virtuema.

However, once the black acne marks are formed, it is best to carry out the combination of photon rejuvenation and fruit acid peeling, and the serum with whitening effect also has a certain function of helping to fade the acne marks, such as Winona's arbutin serum.
Of course, in cases where it is not completely alleviated for the time being, it is also necessary to use concealer and foundation appropriately.

Question Six: Dull skin tone
This problem is difficult to solve, because we are yellow-skinned people, yellow skin color is still normal; especially yellow can go to check the liver function; feel that they are generally yellow, it is best to improve their life schedule, try to develop regular work and rest, go to bed early, get up early, exercise appropriately, healthy eating habits.
If necessary, you can improve your skin texture by means of medical aesthetic means such as photon rejuvenation. If you can't completely improve in the short term, you can choose your own foundation or BB cream or CC cream to try to brighten the complexion.
If you encounter one of the above skin problems, you must learn to identify the problem and find a solution, so that you can effectively improve your skin texture and give everyone a bright feeling.
