Do not crush acne, be careful with your hairstyle!
Do you know the myth that "crushing acne cures quickly? under the judgment and guidance of a dermatologist. Crushing an acne by self-flow causes damage to the inside of the pores and causes bacteria to enter, causing inflammation. At first glance, even if the rash seems to have become smaller, it is not recommended to crush it yourself because it often leaves acne scars.
In addition, acne is hard to heal due to external contact stimuli. If you have acne on your forehead, it is best to shorten your bangs or avoid touching your skin.
In addition, I would like to avoid making makeup for a long time, but when using cosmetics, be sure to wear light makeup and avoid choosing creams and foundations that are rich in oil.
NG acts that worsen acne
(Column) Excessive face washing is counterproductive! For moto of acne deterioration!
Some people get acne once and then wash their face many times a day to keep their skin clean. But in fact, washing too much is not good. The more you wash it, the more you will come into contact with the pimple itself, and the stimulus will harden the keratin, which will worsen the pimple.
In addition, the skin is especially dry after washing the face. Drying is a big enemy for acne, so washing your face twice in the morning and at night is enough. Even if you have oily skin, try to keep it up to 3 times, and use the correct skin care method as described in "Prevention" to keep your skin clean.
