Kulit Bertekstur Jadi Lebih Mulus, Cari Tahu Rahasianya

"Textured Skin Becomes Smoother, Find Out the Secret"

Dream - Everyone wants smooth facial skin because besides giving an attractive appearance, healthy and glowing skin also reflects overall health conditions.

Although having seemingly perfect skin, various skin problems still occasionally arise experienced by many people. Some common skin problems include acne, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and uneven skin texture.

"Causes of Facial Skin Problems"

Mona Gohara, a Skin Doctor and Professor at Yale School of Medicine, revealed that almost everyone has varying levels of skin texture, which can be influenced by skin conditions, facial treatments, environmental factors, or genetics. "Sun exposure can also cause textured skin by reducing natural oils and damaging the production of natural hyaluronic acid," she said. The key to achieving radiant facial skin is to follow a routine skincare regimen as advised by dermatologists.

"Do Exfoliation"

Try to do exfoliation routine. It can be done using a scrub or chemical formula. Chemical exfoliation using glycolic acid, lactic acid, or salicylic acid can help remove dead skin cells, stimulate cell turnover, and produce smoother skin. Lactic acid is great for dry skin, while salicylic acid is suitable for oily skin. It is recommended to exfoliate once or twice a week to avoid the risk of over-exfoliation and skin irritation.

"Serum Vitamin C"

This serum is effective as an antioxidant to improve texture and brighten the skin. It is recommended to use it every day, but it needs to be balanced with the use of sunscreen because Vitamin C can make the skin more sensitive to sunlight.

This serum is beneficial in overcoming damage caused by sun exposure, eliminating dark spots, and stimulating collagen production for firmer skin while reducing fine lines.

Use Sunscreen

Use sunscreen every day to prevent sun damage and skin texture problems caused by UV rays. Sunscreen helps prevent the loss of collagen that can cause fine lines, wrinkles, and skin sagging. Make sure to use sunscreen with at least SPF 30.

Use Retinol

"Retinol and retinoids help to blur the texture of the skin, stimulate cell turnover, and increase collagen production to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Use retinoids two to three times a week at night, after conducting a skin sensitivity test first."

Use Moisturizer

Moisturizing the skin twice a day with a moisturizer containing hyaluronic acid and ceramide improves skin texture. Hyaluronic acid helps retain moisture and gives the skin a plump appearance, while ceramide protects and smoothens dry skin.

"Chemical Peel"

Chemical peel is a procedure in which a dermatologist or dermatologic surgeon uses a chemical solution to improve the texture of the skin by removing the outer layer of skin, stimulating cell turnover, and collagen production. "The healing time varies depending on the depth of the treatment, usually between 1 week to 21 days," says Gohara.

"Chemical peel with medium depth is recommended to address skin damage caused by sun exposure, but caution is needed for dark skin to avoid the risk of hyperpigmentation. Report by Amanda Syavira/Source: Health.com"
