Dr. Le Vi Anh from the Department of Dermatology – Skin Aesthetics at Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital explains that acne is a disease of the sebaceous gland hair follicles that presents in various forms of lesions. The causes of acne are diverse, including hormonal, digestive, and bacterial factors.
Sensitive skin occurs when the skin’s natural barrier is compromised, leading to increased water loss and easier penetration by external agents. Factors such as UV exposure, pollution, and harsh ingredients in cosmetics can worsen sensitive skin. Proper cleaning habits, using harsh products, leaving makeup remover on the skin, not moisturizing oily skin, and using too much acne medication are 10 common skin care mistakes that can increase these issues. It is important to tailor skin care to different areas of the face, avoid overusing products, and not preemptively pursue anti-aging treatments. Addressing issues such as acne and sensitivity through proper skincare habits can help maintain beautiful and radiant skin.
