Skin blemishes: what are they? The most common facial skin defects.
Before you understand how to eliminate facial blemishes Let's see together what the most common imperfections are and why they arise.
Causes and symptoms of skin dryness
Have you always had dry skin? You're in good company! Many women and men suffer from dry facial skin. This condition can be due to: several factors Both internal and external to the body: climatic conditions, seasonal changes, excessive exposure to the sun, frequent washing, long hot showers, poor diet, poor hydration, genetic inheritance, use of aggressive creams and cleansers, medication intake, hormonal changes, the passing of time, smoking. Also some diseases are directly connected to dry skin: among the most common atopic dermatitis, keratosis pilaris and psoriasis.
From a technical point of view, dryness occurs when the skin begins to lack Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) and consequently loses the ability to retain water. This reduces the amount of fluids available to hydrate the tissues, causing the infamous dryness.
As for the symptoms of dry facial skin, among the most common are:
- Loss of lucidity;
- The skin becomes more sensitive;
- Tense and rough skin;
- Cracked and flaking skin;
- Anticious itching;
- Redness;
- The appearance of cuts and cracks.
The reasons for oily skin
Let's now move on to the oily skin, another very common condition that knows no gender or age.
The main element causing oily skin is theexcessive sebum production, the lipid substance that normally plays a protective role from dust, pollution, atmospheric agents. There are people in whom the production of sebum is particularly high: this is how the “oily skin” factor comes into play, easily recognizable by its thickness, dilated pores and a greasy, usually shiny appearance.
Among the most common consequences of oily skin are seborrheic dermatitis, dandruff, annoying and painful pimples until the worsening of inflammation and the appearance of the dreaded acne.
But what causes oily skin? Sebum production is controlled by hormones such as testosterone, progesterone, estrogen, and cortisol. However, genetic factors can also influence excess sebum.
THE signs of oily skinFirst of all, the oily shine, but not only that: in some cases, oily skin manifests itself with a deceptive roughness and an orange peel effect.
Face Wrinkles
Here we are now to the wrinkles of the face, cross of every woman… but also of many men.
An unequivocal signal of the passing of the years, the wrinkles on the face are formed for a set of very specific reasons, including:
- Reduction of collagen and elastin;
- Reduction of sebum production, resulting in thinning of the hydro-lipid film and increased skin dehydration;
- Reduction of hyaluronic acid synthesis, slowing down the normal skin hydration process.
In short, as the years pass, the cells become lazier, slowing down the skin's ability to renew itself. Added to this are external causes such as smoke and the photoaging, that is, the state of skin aging caused by ultraviolet rays and too much exposure to the sun.
