What are the methods for treating skin problems?

In fact, to be honest, there are not so many fancy tricks. The core is the three logics of first stopping loss, then repairing, and then maintaining stability. As long as it is not a pathological skin problem, most people can slowly return to a healthy state by following this idea, and there is no need to stock up on a table of so-called "first aid artifacts."

Last year, I met a girl who was born in 1998. She followed the trend of using high-concentration azelaic acid to eliminate acne marks. As a result, her cheeks became red and stinging. Even washing her face with warm water felt like it was killing her. She asked me if I had any essence that can quickly reduce redness. I asked her first. She stopped all the acids, whitening essences, and functional masks she used every day. She was reluctant to part with them at first, saying that the bottle of essence cost more than 1,000 yuan, so she used it for another two days and broke out into a small rash before she finally stopped.

When many people encounter skin problems, they want to find something to "fix" them quickly, but forget that the first thing to do is not to cause more trouble. In fact, there are two different voices in the industry regarding the initial treatment of skin problems when they first appear. One group is the minimalist group, which advocates using nothing but clean water and mild moisturizing cream, and relying entirely on the skin's own self-healing ability to recover. The other group believes that ingredients close to the skin barrier can be properly supplemented, such as ceramides and cholesterol, to help speed up the repair process. I have come across this myself. My feeling is that if there is only slight redness and dry itching, minimalist care can basically heal it in three to five days. If there are stings and rashes, using some reliable repair products can really reduce the pain. For example, the girl just said that after stopping all effective products, she only applied a simple ceramide repair cream in the morning and evening, and relied on wearing a hat and mask to protect herself from the sun when going out. The redness was basically gone in less than two weeks.

Don’t think that once the redness is gone and the acne is gone, it’s just two steps. I’ve seen too many people start to do it as soon as they see some results. They try a new A alcohol today and apply a whitening mask tomorrow. Within two weeks, the problem returns, and they blame the previous repair products for not working. Just think about it, you fell down and broke your knee, and you ran three thousand meters as soon as the scar formed. Can you avoid bleeding again? The newly restored skin barrier is just like the newly formed scar. It is very thin. You need to give it a stable period of at least one or two months. During this period, try not to do anything, stay up late, and don't eat high-sugar and high-fat foods. Don't put extra burden on the skin, so that it can slowly grow strong.

Of course, not all skin problems can be cured by skin care. If you follow this logic for more than half a month, and the problem not only does not improve, but becomes more and more serious, don’t hesitate to go directly to the dermatology department of a regular hospital to register. Many symptoms that look similar to allergies and acne are actually skin diseases such as rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis. Skin care products are of no use. Taking medication as prescribed by your doctor is the fastest solution.
