On the method of fruit acid skin change in the treatment of melasma
Fruit acid skin change, in the treatment of melasma, has attracted much attention in recent years. Fruit acid is an organic acid extracted from natural fruits or yogurt. Among them, glycolic acid is commonly used, and has unique effects in the treatment of melasma.
The cause of melasma is quite complicated. Most of them are caused by endocrine disorders, sun exposure, genetics and other factors, resulting in hyperfunction of melanocytes, excessive melanin production, deposition in the skin, and then patches.
Glycolic acid skin change, the reason is that glycolic acid is hydrophilic, which can reduce the adhesion between keratinocytes, promote the shedding and renewal of stratum corneum cells, and accelerate the excretion of melanin. And it can stimulate the synthesis of collagen and hyaluronic acid in the dermis, making the skin firmer and smoother.
The application of glycolic acid for skin replacement should be done with caution. Before surgery, it is necessary to carefully observe the skin condition of the patient to know whether he has a history of allergies and the degree of skin sensitivity. During surgery, choose the appropriate concentration of glycolic acid solution according to the patient's skin type and tolerance. The operation should be accurate, and the residence time should be controlled to avoid excessive irritation of the skin. After surgery, proper care is also required. Patients are advised to strictly protect against the sun. Because the skin is more sensitive to ultraviolet rays after surgery, a little carelessness will easily cause aggravation of pigmentation. And it is necessary to moisturize, maintain skin moisture, and help it recover.
However, glycolic acid skin change is not a foolproof solution. Some patients may experience temporary erythema, swelling, desquamation and other reactions, which can be relieved by themselves. If the operation is improper, it may cause serious complications such as infection and scarring. Therefore, the person who performs this operation must be a professional healthcare worker, familiar with the operation skills and precautions.
In short, glycolic acid skin change is an effective way to treat melasma. However, when clinical application, when weighing the advantages and disadvantages, according to the individual situation of the patient, a reasonable treatment plan can be determined to achieve the ideal curative effect and ensure skin safety.
