Unclear education on the skin: what to do?
Every person sooner or later faces various cosmetic defects on their body. Some of these formations are absolutely safe and disappear themselves, some are dangerous to health and require treatment.
By the way, any formulations on the skin beauticians recommend to remove it in winter. Absence of heat and sun rays accelerate the healing process and reduce the risk of side effects. All the formations on the skin of cosmetologists are divided into two groups. The first includes those that were formed due to infection, and the second - benign increases, not associated with infection.
Benign enhancements of skin elements
Such defects have a number of features:
- They are not dangerous to human health, but if they become inflamed( due to the characteristics of the body), then they need to be disposed of surgically.
- Over time they increase, so it's best to get rid of them while they are small in size.
- Many cosmetic salons remove such formations by means of electrocoagulation( electric current).On the skin area for 40 minutes, a special anesthetic cream is applied. After that each formation is cauterized. At the site of removal, a crust is formed, which must be treated every day with a special preparation. When the crust disappears, there remains a small speck that eventually disappears on its own.
- Sometimes the formations are very deep, so the healing process after removal is slower. To speed it up, it's best to do mesotherapy with hyaluronic acid, vitamins and antioxidants several days before removal.
Hyperplasia of sebaceous glands
How does it look? On the body appear small round foci( from 2 mm to 1 cm in diameter) with an umbilical impression in the center and a slightly granular surface. The color is almost the same as that of the skin. Sometimes the formation of a little yellow. Above the surface of the skin acts slightly. Formations appear on the skin of the face unevenly: on the cheeks, on the forehead, near the nose, at the temples.
How to get rid? It is necessary to pass the course of electrocoagulation. It is best to remove the foci of hyperplasia immediately, until they reach a large size. With age, they increase, and over time, in their place, a depression can form. In addition, increased salivation can provoke a more rapid development of hyperplasia. Therefore, after removal and dropping of crusts, cosmetologists recommend using special means that reduce salivation.
Syringoma
How does it look? Syringoma - this is the seals that appear on the sweat glands. They are small and round, slightly loosely, the size of a match head. They are slightly yellow or color in color. Such formations can appear at any age, beginning with adolescence. Syringoms, as a rule, appear in the lower eyelid area.
How to get rid? From this scourge electrocoagulation well helps.
Xantelasticism
How does it look? Xantelasms outwardly resemble small bags of fat. They appear unevenly on the skin area of the eyelids. The shape of such formations is irregular, to the touch they are soft. Their size can range from one to five match heads. Color - yellowish-white. Typically, such formations are found in people aged after 30 years and those who have elevated cholesterol levels.
How to get rid? With the help of electrocoagulation. However, if the cause of such formations is an increased level of cholesterol, then cosmetic procedures must be combined with treatment, which is aimed at lowering the level of cholesterol. Such treatment is appointed by the therapist and includes the use of medications and a therapeutic diet.
MILIUM
What do they look like? These are small white points that have a regular smooth shape. They are formed as a result of blockage of the sebaceous glands. In their origin they are similar to the black dots that appear in the region of the nose and chin. However, milium can appear on any part of the face and even on the skin of the eyelids.
How to get rid? In most cases, such formations can easily be disposed of independently. These are surface formations, so they can simply be removed with a needle. Sometimes it happens when these formations are deep. In such cases, a coagulator is required. Milium can disappear on its own. But if their number increases and they grow in size, then you need to contact a beautician.
Keratoma
How does it look? In cosmetology keratomas are called seborrheic warts, which have an oval or round shape and a yellowish-brown hue. Keratomas can be small, and can be large in size. Their surface can be covered with loose brown crusts. Most often, one or two pieces appear on the body. But if there are more of them, then this indicates serious problems in the body. Keratomas can appear on any part of the body: on the forehead, on the neck, on the face, on the chest and so on. Often they appear in those people who sunbathe a lot.
How to get rid? For health, such education is not dangerous. If there are only a couple of them, you can not delete them. If the keratomas rapidly increase in size, bleed, darken and become inflamed, they must be removed. Before removal, the doctor conducts a histological examination of the suspect site. Keratomas appear in people whose upper layers of the skin are thickened. Therefore, peeling( home and professional), the use of scrubs, the use of therapeutic milk with urea and fruit acids are prescribed.
Defects of the skin of infectious nature
Papillomas
How to look? These are small droplets or pouches of skin color, which seem to hang on a small foot or attached to the body with a round button. They can be single or the entire area of the body can be strewn with them. The appearance of such formations indicates that the human body has a virus of the papilloma. Most often, papillomas appear in the neck and décolleté, under the breast and in the axillary region.
How to get rid? The patient is prescribed complex therapy, which combines electrocoagulation and strengthening of local immunity. Often doctors prescribe oxygen-ozone therapy, the use of ointments with immunomodulating action.
Since papillomas are surface formations, they quickly heal. If there were too many of them, then when they reappear and after their removal, systemic immunocorrection is prescribed.
Warts
How to look? These are formations having a rough surface and irregular shape. In size, they can be large and small. Most often they appear on the skin of the hands and feet, but can occur anywhere.
How to get rid? It is necessary to remove such formations, since they can be contagious. Warts are the most famous virus problem. They are removed by electrocoagulation or cauterization with liquid nitrogen. Cosmetologists recommend to resort to the first option of removal, since it is less traumatic. In addition, after electrocoagulation, healing is faster. Anesthesia is done before removal.
With multiple warts, complex therapy is prescribed, which includes the removal of warts and systemic immunocorrection. In addition, it is recommended to undergo a survey in order to identify the cause of the decrease in immunity and the appearance of warts.
