Why am I having acne in my 30s,40s,even 50s❓️❓️❓️

𝗙𝗹𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘀: An imbalance can lead to breakouts.This usually occurs around periods,during pregnancy,peri-menopause and after stopping (or starting) birth control pills

𝗙𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗛𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆:Some people have a genetic predisposition to acne especially if a close blood relative has/had a history of acne.

𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀:When we are stressed, our bodies produce a hormone that exacerbates acne which is why acne can be an ongoing problem when we are under constant stress.

𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗴𝗻𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:Sometimes acne is not just skin deep,it may be pointing towards more internal disease.

𝗛𝗮𝗶𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗸𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘀:Always be on the lookout for non-comedogenic,oil-free products

This is a picture from the New England Journal of Medicine.The man in the picture was a truck driver for 28 years and never wore sunscreen.The truck drivers face aged 20 years faster on the side that was always next to the window!

Remember windows block the sun's UVB not UVA rays.While the UVB rays lead to skin cancers,it is the UVA rays that are responsible for damage to the collagen and elastin fibres with resultant premature aging.

Want to stay looking younger for longer❓️
Slather on that sunscreen 🌞,seek the shade,avoid the afternoon peek sun exposure, wear protective clothing .

WHAT ARE SKIN BOOSTER INJECTIONS?
Micro-injections of hyaluronic acid gel(think of it as a very thin filler)addressing the tone,hydration and firmness of the skin.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Skin boosters increase the water content of the skin because hylauronic acid attracts 1000 times its weight in water,thereby intensely hydrating the skin.
It also stimulates new collagen and elastin production thus remodelling aging and sagging skin.

HOW OFTEN AND HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
Most boosters are designed to be carried out in a package of 2 or 3 sessions. The full improvement can take around 4 weeks, and the results of a skin booster should last up to 6 months. After that time you can repeat the process or just continually ‘top up’ your skin with individual treatments at 6 month intervals.

➡️Yes, depending on the stage of hair loss.
➡️If the problem is identified early, then the hair can completely regrow if the tight hairstyles are stopped and necessary treatments are started.
➡️However, longstanding traction alopecia can cause permanent destruction of the hair follicle; in this situation the hair loss is permanent.

➡️Bruxism is a condition characterized by teeth grinding or clenching, which often occurs during sleep.
➡️ It can lead to dental problems, jaw pain, headaches, and other discomforts.
➡️Botox injections can be used as a treatment option for bruxism by relaxing the muscles involved in jaw movement, thereby reducing grinding and clenching.
➡️During the procedure, a healthcare professional will inject small amounts of Botox into specific muscles in the jaw.
➡️If you're considering Botox for bruxism, it's crucial to consult with a qualified healthcare professional who has experience in administering Botox injections. They will be able to assess your specific situation, discuss the potential risks and benefits, and determine if Botox is an appropriate treatment option for you. MediSkin Clinic

"𝙄𝙎 𝙄𝙏 𝙉𝙀𝘾𝙀𝙎𝙎𝘼𝙍𝙔 𝙏𝙊 𝙎𝙀𝙀𝙆 𝙏𝙍𝙀𝘼𝙏𝙈𝙀𝙉𝙏 𝙁𝙊𝙍 𝙈𝙔 𝙏𝙀𝙀𝙉𝘼𝙂𝙀𝙍'𝙎 𝘼𝘾𝙉𝙀?"As we conclude ,let's delve into this common question parents ask.

➡️It is important as a parent to not make your child overly-conscious of the acne on their skin by being overly-concerned or fixated on their appearance.

➡️Having said that,keep an eye out on your child's emotional response to the acne,as this condition may affect their self esteem and confidence with some children ending up withdrawing from people.This is an important indicator to seek treatment for your child's acne.

➡️Seeking early treatment also helps reduce the chances of scarring and prevents mild acne from progressing to severe forms.

➡️Remember acne is very common during puberty,it's almost like a rites of passage into adulthood.So don't wait for the first pimple to appear. Teach children good skin-care habits e.g children should be taught to wash their face at night too by around 9 years of age.This minimises the blockage of pores .

➡️It may be comfortable during winter,but hot baths dry out your skin.Take a lukewarm bath and use a gentle non-fragranced soap .
➡️Choose 100%pure cotton clothing and avoid wool or fleece as these cause irritation.
➡️Moisturise often.Switch to a more heavy duty emollient like vaseline petroleum jelly.
➡️Central heating,radiators and heaters may keep us warm and snug,but they also strip moisture from the air.Avoid sitting too close to heaters and place a bowl of water near heaters/radiators.
➡️Aeration-While it is tempting to keep windows closed to keep the heat in,this gives perfect thriving conditions for house dust mites and moulds,which are very common triggers of eczema. Open windows daily!
➡️If no relief,seek medical attention.

Always a pleasure treating this epitome of knowledge and wisdom. Auntie Joyie Zimba ,thank you for trusting us with your skin.

Studies have shown cell-phones carry more bacteria on them than a public restroom!Coupled with the accumulation of make-up,oils and environmental toxins throughout the day,cellphones are a sure trigger of acne breakouts.
➡️Minimise skin-to-phone contact.If it's a long call,utilise bluetooth,earphones,loudspeaker etc.
➡️Clean the phone regularly, once or twice daily.Alcohol wipes in your bag do the trick.
➡️Use a benzoyl peroxide wash to unclog pores and eradicate bacteria.

Here are a few tips to help with this rather distressing condition.

➡️Wash hands twice,first with soap then with emollient.
➡️Pat dry instead of rubbing dry with a towel
➡️Immediately apply moisturiser and reapply throughout the day(Aquaphor healing ointment and vaseline petroleum jelly are some of the best)
➡️Use gentle skin-care that is alcohol and fragrance free
➡️Wear rubber gloves(vinyl with cotton lining) when doing dishes or handling harsh chemicals and detergents
➡️Apply your doctor-prescribed medications
