Lately, I've been getting a lot of skin problems like pimples and whiteheads on my face, maybe because the weather has gotten drier. Makeup doesn't seem to be able to hide my skin problems, so I'm worried.

When I first started experiencing skin problems, I thought they were just acne, but there are actually many different types of skin problems. Specifically, the causes and treatment methods vary depending on the type of skin problem.

So today, I'm going to organize the types of skin troubles I've found, their characteristics and causes, as well as skin trouble management and prevention methods, and even dermatological treatment methods!

1. Types of skin problems

When it comes to sudden skin problems, understanding the type is crucial for proper treatment. Let me explain several types of skin problems and their causes!

 

1) Inflammatory acne

Among the skin problems, inflammatory acne is the most common. This common skin condition is caused by excessive sebum production. Acne can also be aggravated by chemicals in cosmetics and hair products. Inflammatory acne can also be painful.

 

2) Whiteheads

Another skin problem is whiteheads. One common cause of whiteheads is clogged pores. If dead skin cells aren't shed in a timely manner, pores become clogged, trapping sebum and causing whiteheads. Other factors that can contribute to whiteheads include using cosmetics containing pore-clogging products and leaving makeup residue on your skin.

 

3) Warts

Warts are another common skin condition. They are caused by HPV infection on the skin or mucous membranes, causing bumps to appear.

 

4) Whiteheads/blackheads

Whiteheads and blackheads are also common skin problems. Whiteheads are white bumps that appear when pores are clogged, while blackheads are black bumps that have oxidized sebum and turned black. The cause is said to be excessive sebum production.

2. Skin trouble management/prevention

There are many different types of skin problems, so I'll share with you some skin problem management and prevention methods that you can practice on a daily basis!

 

1) Get enough sleep

Getting enough sleep is crucial for managing skin problems. Since sleep deprivation can contribute to skin problems, getting at least eight hours of sleep a night can help prevent them.

 

2) Stress management

Stress can stimulate the body's production of the hormone cortisol, irritating the skin and potentially causing skin problems. Therefore, managing stress in daily life can help manage skin problems.

 

3) Skin hydration

Preventing skin problems and maintaining skin health is crucial for preventing moisture loss. Drinking plenty of water and applying a mild moisturizing cream after washing your face are crucial to preventing dryness.

4) Thorough face washing

It is said that if you wear makeup, washing your face more thoroughly than usual helps prevent skin problems because makeup residue can cause skin problems.

3. Skin trouble management treatment

If you have recurring skin problems, it may be helpful to identify the cause and receive treatment appropriate to the type of skin problem.

 

1) Peeling treatment

To manage skin problems, you can consider peeling treatments. For sebum and impurities removal, try the Aqua Peel, or for acne and redness relief, consider the Aladdin Peel.

The price for one session of Maypure Aqua Peel is 20,000 won, and the price for one session of Aladdin Peel is 100,000 won.

4. Q&A

1) Can seasonal or weather changes cause problems?

: Dry air during seasonal changes or winter can strip moisture from the skin, causing flaking and disrupting skin balance. In these cases, the skin barrier becomes weakened, and even minor irritation can trigger skin problems.

 

2) Can I wear makeup when I have severe skin problems?

: It's best to apply minimal makeup after calming your skin. Be careful, as applying makeup when you have a breakout can worsen the inflammation.

 

3) What lifestyle habits are good to prevent skin problems from recurring?

: You should avoid touching skin problems with your hands, and it is important to wash pillow covers and towels frequently to keep them clean, as these can also cause skin problems.
