Skin healthy reflection of the actual conditions of a healthy body. Conversely, dull skin can become less luminous indication body does not fit in the circumstances.
Can promote the skin because so many other important functions outside the senses as taste and wrap the body from the threat of natural conditions. It helps set the body temperature, also protect from viruses and bacteria, and not less important to the function and secretion of fluid.
In secretion functionality, such as removing the skin of oil called sebum to maintain humidity and skin delicacy. While the liquid form of perspiration, which mainly consists of water to body temperature to remain in normal limits.
Complexity often less than we realize. Did you 1 cm2 skin contains an average of 1 m blood vessels, 100 sweat glands, 3,000 cell sensor at the end of nerve fibers, 4 m nervous, 25 instruments sensitive, 200-strung nerves end sickness, 2 instruments strung cold, 12 hot-strung, 10 hair, and 15 oil glands?
Therefore, treat skin to be important, and if need be one-time with special care.
Ultraviolet ringleader destroyer
As a body wrap, the skin is a face shield main threat conditions outside the body; ultraviolet sun rays one. Ultraviolet rays (UV) it is so often accused the main factors for early alias premature aging Aging. These rays, especially UV B penetration strong power, placed in sequence number one in the list of causes. No wonder the skin that ripen early in many parts of the body found in the open, such as the face, arms, and legs.
Early manifestation of aging can be the color of the skin that is more black, dull, even the spot blackish-brown spot called melasma; sometimes called chloasma. If not immediately addressed, spot-black spot that usually occurs in women it can be more widespread.
"Blazing sun, which contains ultraviolet it is bad for the skin. For many years before as a result of the display is visible rays with the naked eye, skin have been damaged. When biopsi to see the destruction, all people will be various ways to avoid sunburn," said David Bureau, skin experts from New York.
David Bureau of the right occurred during the early aging, skin will change so that people aged 30 or 20 years visibly older. Even stimulus ultraviolet rays that continually make the skin can be damaged or even exposed skin cancer.
Damage to the skin that are often experienced by those aged above 30 years - though can also occur in young people - can also be caused by external factors such as levels of pollution, the environment, which can be different with the carbon content of smoke, dust and dirt piles at the other skin.
Apart from the outside, the internal conditions of the body also affect the skin health, such as hormonal factors, the descendant of factors, stress, and free radicals.
"Every time you inhale oxygen breathing with the inevitable result of oxidation remnants of oxidation called oxidants. Oxidants is forming free radicals that, because no longer have a place to stick in the body, and to roam everywhere, into other cells . As a result, the cells are hit by broken quickly, "said Edwin Juanda, a dermatologist many volunteer patients to beautify themselves.
Free radicals that can cause reactive changes and chemical damage to various components of living cells, such as protein, lipid, carbohydrate, and acid nukleat.
Replace the skin every 28 days
In outline, outermost layer of skin is the epidermis (Stratum corneum) are thin as onion skin. Underneath is the various organs that have been called before. In the fat tissue is thick. The next layer of muscle (meat) and bone, which is not longer part of the skin.
Suitable natural process, practically every 28 days once the skin cells will regeneration or rejuvenate themselves. Tuesday skin, which will round up to the surface and form a strech, before eventually die and become part of the layer of epidermis.
In the skin condition which ripen, which occurred otherwise. "Cuticle layer, which contains skin cells alive, is also where various layers and duct gland, thinner. The layer of epidermis had called, because the cells in the skin of dead or dirty continue to pile up," said Edwin Juanda.
Edwin also align the view that layer of dead skin does not happen automatically, and if flake will take a long time. That is also why, skin needs to be done specifically, because clean skin care day-to-day course will not be able to remove dead skin.
However, according to Edwin, does not mean that there is hope for people with early aging skin to get back healthy. There are several ways that can be done. For example, that spot is very small (freckles) can be removed with use equipment that is fine. "To spot the right to use more width bleaching cream smeared in the night," he said. He reminded, the use of bleaching cream must be done carefully and under the supervision of doctors skin. The use of excessive, especially in a long time, thus making the skin look black.
However, when it was not able to overcome the problem, "I'd not want to use laser crusher pigment such as the Ruby laser. But this is only for cases of severe, because the results vary for each individual. Doctors who do so will do more tests to find the first dose appropriate, "said the doctor FKUI the graduates.
Compared with black spot, wrinkling in the face of more difficult removed at all. Although several methods can use with real results. One of them perform with Chemical peeling. In this case, skin smeared face special fluid that makes skin epidermis. After recovery - with the time long enough - wrinkling-wrinkling become lost.
Another way to the action face lift operation; a necessary cost of this large and should be done by expert doctors. Another possibility is to use sour cream vitamin A, introduced by Prof.. Kligman from the U.S.. Spread sour cream with vitamin A such as Retin-A or Vitacid, or Melavita in the face every night, a few months in the skin of the face will become faster and wrinkles are reduced.
However, sour cream vitamin A have side effects, so make skin slightly red and sore in the first few days of use. In addition, cream, it is not necessarily suitable for everyone.
"So, all the action is done to treat skin teenagers again, so is layer underneath to grow faster. All the way is quite safe provided that is done with very careful," said Edwin while reminding the need to consult a doctor with the skin.
Treatment
Likewise with the board. Edwin, chemists Mark Potter who had the task of collecting medicines for the troops Operation Desert Storm must face the dry climate in the Middle East, said the need to be done to dismantle skin piles of dead skin is not useful. "But be careful. If not, your skin will even lose the humidity, even more damaged," he said.
According to Potter also, in addition to re-create luminous skin, "have functions that are more than simply beautify themselves, for example, the turnover skin cells will be faster, but also improve the flow of blood that important in providing food for the skin surface."
The simplest way suggest that he is using soap to scrub the skin so that all fat and piles of dead skin missing. All kinds of bath soap can be used, such as soap, but JF sulfur-containing sulfur more effectively dead skin epidermis, while preventing the formation of acne. However, for allergic sulfur, a soft baby soap will be more precise, because it does not make a skin allergy.
However, according to the Bureau of David, soap less good for the skin dry, because it can cause irritation. Because of this need to search and secure the soap contains oat-active substances, which are beneficial. While this can easily be obtained with soap that contains active substances such as vitamin E complex, which is useful to combat signs of aging, pelembap oil, or other substances, such as soap or Priti new LUX. This type of soap able to work double, in addition to really clean, and also maintain flex skin health.
To face the Texturized skin smoother, softer and thinner, more precisely when used in soap or face special facial soap such as Kao Biore, Oil of Ulan, or other products.
However, to in the day-to-day care, more Potter recommend not to use cleaning soap. There are two ways in which both do so. First, using a mask with the chemical content of enzim able to bind skin cells die, destroying the network, while up. "The slightly less practical, but significant action in , namely rub the skin with a soft mechanical."
Although not as much as soap, cleaning products epidermis is quite easy to obtain in the market. Start from the traditional Mangir, Mangir shake the practical output Mustika Ratu, to body scrubs from Kao can be used for this purpose. AHA, oat anti aging.
Like with other products that are in now is called the AHA (alpha hidrocxy acid) or fruit acid group. AHA considered able to overcome the weakness of scrubs that only remove the outer layer, but can not improve relations in the antarsel. AHA, often referred to as a miracle substance anti aging and able to peel the skin rubbed off without, reduces wrinkles and make skin more fresh. For substances that also moisturize layer underneath the skin and stimulate formation of new cells.
"The AHA is not suitable for all ages. They are aged 30 - 40 years can still use them. But the aged above 40 will be better if the use retinoic acid or acid retinoat," said Edwin Juanda.
Because, he said, when the AHA can only entrance to the cell layer, the acid retinoat that contain vitamin A that is required is able to penetrate skin cells into cells. "Skin that is ugly and dull it will be changed to become more Nation, a thick, red, and fresh again."
Not strange if many products now skin that get cargo AHA as Plenitude Excell-A3 or Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion. When pelembap with AHA able to infiltrate more in, then moisturizer without the AHA will only moisturize the epidermis.
Business skin to maintain humidity needs to be done carefully. "It must be difficult to enter into a liquid layer of skin that assesses without explaining very complicated. Imagine, fluid in the body, we can only exit the channel through perspiration," said Edwin.
That's why, night cream seen as an effort to maintain the humidity and how best to restore skin condition. At the time sleeping, metabolic system really rest will be to improve the cell-selnya. "So the cream will come in the night and easily work with the maximum in a long time. As if the day, yet again the influence of the sun spat that make the skin smeared AHA or so retinoat acid irritation," said Edwin while explaining that the doctor will usually provide a strong medicine for the treatment in the evening. However, for that is not undergo treatment, Edwin
confirms the opinion to keep the skin smooth without cream night to be able to breathe. "Kutani night can only form moisturizer that can be used at any time if someone's skin is too dry. This is not the same can be beaten the average for all people. For oily skin, do not put cream is recommended night, I could pimply."
However moisturizer still needed even though the skin is in a state of healthy and fresh. According to Mark Potter, in addition to the skin with nutrients, particularly oil and vitamins, moisturizer will also be encouraged to do regenerating skin. Moisturizer with emoliennya will be able to overcome all kinds of weather conditions that damage the skin. "Without the net emolien, moisturize no meaning. Evidences, if it is to save money in the freezer, do not forget to lock it."
Solar curtain shield skin
Moisturize In addition, other treatment products that are needed to prevent early aging is sun block or sunscreen. Although the actual body has been equipped with defense systems such as the layer of cornea, melanin, and antioxidants, but the high level of radiation, this protection mechanism can through, so that should be added protector from the outside. In addition to clothing, artificial defense system from the outside is the most effective sun block.
Because in the tropical sun with the intensity that high, sun block can be used every day. Cream that contains both the SPF (sun protective factor) high, easily obtained, and do not cause allergy. Recently many marketed products that contain substances such as antiultraviolet product output, L'Oreal, softener sports from the Tanjung Sari Ayu, or Nivea Visage.
When mentioned body lotion containing SPF 15 means that the cream will continue to sunlight only a fifth of teens. Conversely cream with SPF 60 will only continue seperenam forty sun to our skin. Thus, the larger the value of the SPF, the more effective function as a sun screen.
"This means people who use SPF 30 sun during the 60 minutes, synonymous with the sun without suncreen for 2 minutes. If the smear SPF 15, with the sun for 4 minutes," said Edwin. Therefore, he recommends, they are only sometimes are under the blazing sun can use the learner-SPF 15 - 30. Meanwhile, the more often blazing sun baked better when using a learner-SPF 60 or more.
Sun block can be smeared in all parts of the body that is open, especially the face, but not until the affected eye. This cream can be used each morning as the base powder.
Selecting skin care products that need to be careful, do not tend to result worse than the previous situation.
Not infrequently someone allergic to certain products. Harmless, when to use them before, the new products are tested a little skin in the back part. When the allergic reaction appears, immediately stop and try not to use cosmetics or materials from the same brand, because reactions which arise usually had more intense. "But the main, avoid cosmetics that contain mercury or mercury that will be a cumulative effect on the kidney," said Edwin without make affraid offenses.
Also beware of products that have perfume in cosmetics because so often the main cause of irritation. Tracing the order of chemistry, a fragrance can be made from 300 kinds of materials. "If you must choose between products made from 10, or 200 types of chemicals, then choose a little chemistry content," said Mark Potter.
Another thing that needs to be a preservative substance - the second cause skin irritation. Note which types of products you buy are never easy to mold or damaged in several months, because of indications that the rate low.
Handling of early aging did not give maximum results only when external factors are resolved. Edwin therefore often encourage clients to maintain health by consuming more nutritious foods. With adequate nutrition, vitamins, the body will be enough, so that slowed the aging process.
"Fruits and vegetables are the types of food a day-to-day is good for the skin because it contains antioxidant substances. Avoid excessive eating meat because it will cause too much oxidation, the remaining burn any more."
When the food consumed is still perceived to be less contain antioxidant substances (eg vitamins A, C, E, and melatonin), can only drink antioxidant supplements. "Drugs are not free to do anything, the original size accordance with the recommended dose," said Edwin while reminding others to keep confidential the skin with the freshness of drinking water at least 2 l per day.
