Acne, black and white dots – rashes on the face do not please anyone. We propose to find out why they appear at all in order to deal with this once and for all.
Types of skin rashes
Our skin is an extremely sensitive and delicate organ that is sensitive to external and internal stimuli. Most often, the skin expresses its dissatisfaction in the form of rashes. Here are the most common ones.
Акне
Yes, those same pimples that annoy teenagers and infrequently, but still occur in adults. Inflammations of this kind occur due to a violation of the output of sebum to the surface of the skin, when the ducts of the sebaceous glands are clogged and an ideal environment is formed for the propagation of propionobacteria acne.
The next scenario is predictable:
the skin becomes inflamed, sometimes itchy;
a pimple ripens;
the owner of a pimple does not leave the desire to squeeze it out, but this cannot be done.
Acne has several causes:
genetic predisposition;
hormonal imbalance;
improper diet;
illiterate cosmetic care or its absence;
gastrointestinal tract diseases;
stress.
In winter and during the off-season, or, conversely, in extreme heat, many people have herpes on their lips – multiple blisters.
Allergic rashes
They appear on the skin in the form of inflammatory elements of a reddish color. Yes, they can be masked with foundation, but itching remains – it makes the manifestations of allergies unbearable.
There are several reasons for allergic rashes.
Violation of the barrier properties of the skin due to poor-quality or too aggressive cosmetics.
Genetically predetermined skin reactivity. Anything can become a provocateur, but most often – foods with a high allergic potential (citrus fruits, eggs, chocolate, honey, nuts).
Rosacea, or rosacea
Characteristic features are red cheeks and a noticeable vascular network. Unfortunately, these symptoms are almost always obvious, especially during an exacerbation. It is extremely difficult to disguise them. You need to consult a dermatologist for advice.
Factors that predispose to rosacea can be very different – from genetically determined vascular disorders to the use of certain foods (red wine, spicy or hot food).
Herpetic eruptions
In winter and during the off-season, or, conversely, in extreme heat, many people develop herpes on their lips. At first, these multiple vesicles are very itchy and cause pain, and then they dry up and, if you do not peel off the crust, they pass without a trace.
The exacerbation is caused by a decrease in immunity. The herpes virus cannot be removed from the body, therefore, with a cold or severe stress, when the immune system is weakened, relapses occur.
Allergic rashes appear on the skin in the form of inflammatory elements of a reddish color.
The solution
Of course, everyone dreams of beautiful clear skin without rashes. But such a scenario is possible only for absolutely healthy people, and there are few of them. The rest have to deal with skin imperfections, but with the right approach, solving problems will require a minimum of effort.
As soon as you notice that the rash has become more frequent, consult a doctor.
Review your lifestyle: analyze your diet, think about whether you sleep enough, walk, play sports. Choose cosmetics, focusing on the type and condition of the skin. Remember that care must be competent and systematic.
Remember that during the period of exacerbation of rashes, you should not self-medicate and deal with the problem with the help of cosmetic masks, peels and scrubs.
acne tips
Now let’s talk more specifically about acne. What can be done for acne? Adjust your diet by limiting your intake of:
sweet;
fatty;
acute;
coffee.
And although a direct link between diet and acne has not yet been proven, long-term observations suggest that the abuse of these products provokes inflammatory elements.
As soon as you notice that the cases of rash have become more frequent and it is getting harder to cope with them each time, consult a doctor.
If dietary restrictions do not give a result within two months, visit a doctor – a specialist will help determine the cause of the rash.
Review the cosmetic care algorithm, it should include the following steps:
