FRAGILIZED SKIN
(POST PROCEDURE - TREATMENT - TATTOO)

Aesthetic procedures are on the rise: Increasing numbers of people are undergoing chemical peels, laser treatments and other forms of skin resurfacing. After any such in-office procedure, skin is as though stripped bare. Skin’s barrier function is almost non-existent, and it is likely to feel hypersensitive. In this situation, you are well advised to visit the pharmacy and ask about repearing creams for post-procedure skin. There are some amazing expert solutions out there that can really minimise downtime.
TRUE
OR FALSE
CHEILITIS IS THE SCIENTIFIC
WORD FOR CHAPPED LIPS.
TRUE
Cheilitis is another name for chapped lips. The lips become dry and flaky, and painful vertical cracks can develop. The skin around the lips sometimes becomes irritated too. This dryness causes unpleasant burning sensations.
LICKING CHAPPED
LIPS IS A GOOD IDEA.
FALSE
People with dry and chapped lips often lick them frequently, and pick or bite off flaking skin. It’s so tempting isn’t it, but this only aggravates the situation by ridding skin of its natural protective layer and triggering a vicious cycle.
YOUR SKIN GET DRYER
WHEN YOU'RE SICK.
TRUE
Colds and flus suck moisture out of our skin leaving it feeling dry and dull. The illnesses themselves, coupled with the medications we are taking, and the fact that many of us are bedridden, leads to skin being deprived of moisture.
A 1ST DEGREE BURN
IS JUST LIKE SUNBURN.
TRUE
A 1st degree burn is just like a sunburn. It affects the outermost layer of skin only and causes the affected area to turn red and painful. Superficial skin burns also often itch due to histamine release.

NEWLY
TATTOOED SKIN

Across the world, 600 million people have tattoos. That’s 30% of the global population! Tattooing involves introducing pigments into the dermis using a sterile needle, by perforating the skin over and over again. This is a significant “attack” on skin which can leave it red and swollen for days and even weeks to come. It’s no surprise that people are searching for daily care products to enhance the healing of newly tattooed skin.
In the dedicated article in this section, you’ll learn how to care for your healing tattoo over its first 4 weeks and in the longer term, to keep it looking sharp, bright and beautiful.
