Skin Problems

9 COMMON SKIN PROBLEMS

**ACNE** Acne is something all of us can relate to at some stage of our lives. The main causes of acne is mainly due to our bodies having an over stimulation of hormones, producing excess sebum coming in contact with dead skin cells and bacteria clogging the pores. *Consequences: Redness, brown spots, overly irritated skin, uneven complexion, scars*

**SCARS** Scars can occur to a variety of reasons. One of which is due to sub-optimal recovery following an injury or cut made to the skin. Facial scars are a result from acne outbreaks that were not treated early. Post acne, when the skin is recovering, discoloration will occur, leaving marks or scars (brown pigment or raise thickened) on the skin.Consequences: Lifelong scars, indentation on skin, dark spots

**DRY & SENSITIVE SKIN** When the skin is dry, it is more sensitive to external aggressors. Surface lipids, produced in smaller quantities, no longer form a homogeneous barrier. As the skin barrier no longer performs its function as effectively, it allows external aggressors and irritants to penetrate deeper into the skin. Skin thus becomes more vulnerable and is more strongly irritated.Consequences: Blotchy red skin, sensitive to touch & heat

**OIL SEEDS / MILIA** Oil Seed / Milia affect both men and women, especially those who smoke or sleep late. Also, frequent usage of rich, oil-based beauty products, especially moisturizers and eye creams can cause the growth of milia seeds.Consequences: Unsightly appearance due to bumps on skin / scars due to unskilled extraction

**OILY SKIN** Often a chronically oily skin has coarse pores and pimples and other embarrassing blemishes. It is prone to blackheads. In this type of skin, the oil producing sebaceous glands are overactive and produce more skin oil (sebum) than is needed. The oil oozes and gives the skin a greasy shine. The pores are enlarged and the skin has a coarse look.Consequences: Acne, blackheads, large pores, fungal infections

**UNEVEN SKIN TONE** Uneven skin tone is a common problem here in Malaysia- the skin appears shallow and the glow in youthful skin is absent. The main causes of dull complexion are due to lack of sleep, stress, collagen depletion and poor skincare habits.Consequences: Appearance is tired & not radiant

**PIGMENTATION** Pigmentation comes in various forms: freckles, liver spots, age spots. They are basically the discoloration of the skin. This is due to excessive pigment (melanin) resulting from over-exposure of UV damage or aging. *Consequences: Severe uneven skin tone & age spots*

**AGING / SAGGING SKIN / FINE LINES / WRINKLES** Aging causes our skin to get thinner and drier. One of the main factors that cause fine lines and wrinkles is the over-exposure to sunlight through the harmful UV light which damages the collagen and other supporting structure for the skin plumpness.Consequences: Loss of elasticity, skin loosens & sags, dull & old appearance

**DARK EYE CIRCLES** Dark circles under the eyes have many different causes and despite what most people seem to think, fatigue isn’t the only one. Dark circles may result from hyperpigmentation, triggered by chronic eye-rubbing, sun exposure, or genetics. Alcohol can also contribute to dark circles under the eyes. *Consequences: Known as “Panda Eyes” due to the dark rims encircling the eyes*
