[Ding Dang, my pores are very thick, and there are blackheads. Is the XX face washing instrument, blackhead sticker and scrub cream popular on the Internet useful? ]
Children who love beauty, once blackheads appear on their noses, can’t even eat strawberries happily.
There are many products on the market under the banner of removing blackheads and shrinking pores, among which there are many [net red].
Of all kinds of cleaning products, which can effectively improve blackheads on the face? [Face Washing Artifact] Can We Still Use It? What should I do with blackheads?
Today, Ding Dang was eating strawberries… Doctor Zhang Liwen from the dermatology department was invited to give us a detailed analysis.
Washing face artifact, not so [God]
In principle, face washing instruments are roughly divided into two categories:
One is to increase local mechanical friction through the brush head, just like washing sneakers cleaner with a brush than with a towel. Second, it has the function of acoustic wave oscillation, which is similar to going to an optician’s to wash glasses. It will be cleaner than we do at home.
But can washing clean prevent sneakers and glasses from getting dirty again? Can the pores on the surface of sneakers be reduced? Of course not.
Similarly, reasonable use of face washing artifact can reduce dirt on the skin surface to a certain extent, and even loosen blackheads through sound wave oscillation, making blackheads easier to be brushed off.
Although blackheads have gone, the [pit] caused by thick pores is still there, just like taking eggs from a chicken coop and there will be new eggs in a few days.
Therefore, face washing instruments can indeed wash the face cleaner, but it is difficult to fundamentally improve the bulky pores.
Nasal patches and facial masks are only superficial efforts.
Wire drawing mask, mud mask, blackhead nose patch, rice, film in eggs… These food have certain adhesion or adsorption, so some people want to [pull] blackheads out of pores through them.
Not to mention whether these things can really pull out blackheads, even if they can be pulled out, they may also [stick] down the protective cutin on the skin surface.
This not only has no contraction effect on pores, but also may destroy the skin’s epidermal barrier function, leading to skin damage and even infection.
In addition, sebaceous glands continue to secrete grease. If pores cannot shrink in time, blackheads will continue to appear. Therefore, methods such as pasting and tearing can only treat symptoms, not root causes.
Friction, Beware of Damage to Skin Barrier
Scrub cream, scrubbing with sugar or salt, etc., seems to increase friction to remove old waste cutin and blackheads. Well, the idea is good, but the effect is often unsatisfactory.
Besides, excessive use or improper operation may damage the skin barrier function and cause other problems. Sugar, salt and baking soda what are better to eat only.
To do a good job of cleaning, you only need to wash your face carefully.
To prevent pores and blackheads, the most basic and important thing is to clean and moisturize the face.
Fully clean the face, it is recommended to clean it once a day in the morning and evening, and choose cleansing products with different cleaning powers according to your own needs.
When washing your face, use 1 ~ 2g facial cleansing products, focusing on both sides of your forehead and nose, which are easy to produce oil on your face. After gently drawing circles with your fingers and smearing them, clean them with clear water or towel stained with clear water.
After washing your face, dry it in time instead of air-drying it, then spray moisturizing (refreshing) skin water, apply moisturizing cream, etc. to do a good job of moisturizing. Doing a good job of moisturizing also helps soften cutin and prevent blackheads.
To make a thorough improvement, we need to find a professional doctor.
Since washing one’s face can only achieve the preventive effect, what should one do if one wants to completely improve pore bulkiness and remove blackheads?
The answer may have been guessed by everyone: under the guidance of professional doctors, choose a suitable treatment plan.
1. Medicines
Retinoic acid drugs have the effects of removing excess keratinization, regulating keratinization of hair follicle mouth cells, reducing sebaceous gland secretion, etc. To a certain extent, they can reduce and prevent blackheads, but they often take effect slowly.
It should be noted that such drugs are irritating and may cause local skin redness, itching, tingling, etc.
Therefore, it should be used under the guidance of a doctor. It cannot be used during pregnancy and lactation.
2. Tartaric acid therapy
Fruit acid mainly stimulates skin regeneration through chemical exfoliation, thus achieving therapeutic effects such as shrinking pores and rejuvenation.
Fruit acid treatment may cause adverse reactions such as stabbing pain, burning sensation, temporary skin flushing, etc. Some people may also have skin burns, erosion, temporary acne aggravation and other reactions.
Therefore, the use of tartaric acid skin replacement should also be carried out under the guidance of a doctor. Especially for people who are sensitive to skin, if they treat themselves without consulting a doctor, they may aggravate skin sensitivity due to the wrong concentration and excessive use.
3. Cosmetic laser
Intense pulsed light (IPL), erbium laser, CO2 lattice laser, radio frequency and other technologies can stimulate dermal collagen proliferation, initiate tissue repair, collagen rearrangement and so on to a certain extent, thus improving skin elasticity and luster and shrinking pores.
However, these technologies require higher instruments and operation methods, so don’t behave in such a way.
If you really cherish your face, don’t choose a beauty salon and do laser therapy. This is not to say that all beauty salons are not good, but because the qualifications of the operators in many institutions are not good, and if you are careless, the consequences may be very serious.
For the problems of bulky pores and blackheads, cleaning and moisturizing should be done well at ordinary times. When the problem is serious, it is always the best choice to find a professional doctor for treatment.
