WHAT IS Hyperpigmentation? Hyperpigmentation is a common condition in which some patches of skin turn darker in color. This is a harmless condition caused when there is too much brown pigment, called "melanin" in the skin. This condition can affect people in all races. All hyperpigmentation, regardless of the reason, is treated by the same protocol. So whether an individual has pigmentation from acne or freckles or melasma the only way to correct it is to shut down the melanocytes.The most effective lightener and only true lightener in the USA is hydroquinone. Other ingredients that potentiates the result are glycolic acid, kojic acid and a timed-released delivery system. Celazome's FADE SHADES is our recommendation.What is Psoriasis? Psoriasis is the most common chronic skin disorder seen by health professionals. The condition is a genetically-determined autoimmune disorder believed to affect 2-5% of the world's population. Psoriasis is perhaps one of the most frustrating conditions to treat. Just as the appearance, symptoms and severity of psoriasis differ from sufferer to sufferer, so do responses to different treatments. Furthermore, unlike other autoimmune problems that can spontaneously resolve themselves, psoriasis rarely does. Celazome's Penetrating Moisturizing Body Lotion is our recommendation.What is Rosacea? Rosacea, formerly called Acne Rosacea, is a chronic skin disorder that affects the physical and emotional well-being of 14 million sufferers. Most often, women with fair skin must cope with the day-to-day symptoms and the self-esteem issues that are often associated with it. Rosacea almost always occurs between the ages of 30 and 60. It is identified at first by occasional flushing on the face (nose, cheeks, forehead and sometimes chin). It can sometimes be found on the neck, too. Since Rosacea may be affected by vascular changes, vascular triggers such as hot drinks, exercise, alcohol and spicy foods may cause the redness to flare up. Rosacea is a mystery disease - there are many hypotheses as to its cause, but there are no conclusive indicators. Genetic, gastrointestinal, infectious (organism and bacterial), immunological and environmental causes are all under review. Celazome's Serum Vitae is our recommendation to help in the reduction of redness.What is Eczema? Atopic Dermatitis or Eczema is an inherited skin condition which often begins in early infancy. Typically this disease has periods when the skin is almost entirely normal, and periods when the condition is more active. So the child may be troubled on and off for years and then just grow out of it as an adult. The doctor can't predict the course of this skin condition and many never "grow out of it." Individuals with a family history of asthma, hay fever, or dry skin seem to be more likely to develop this non-contagious form of dermatitis. When eczema is active, the condition causes itching, erythema (redness), inflammation, fine scaliness, irritated papules and crusty erosions. The itching can even become uncontrollable, and many patients will even scratch at their skin while asleep. There is no cure for eczema, but there is relief for the symptoms of dry skin and itching. Celazome's Penetrating Moisturizing Body Lotion is our recommendation.What is Dry Skin? Believe it or not, excessive dry skin may also be inherited. Furthermore, the individual with the inherited tendency for dry skin may not be affected until hormonal changes, environmental conditions, or nutritional problems stress the skin. Older clients, who produce less protective sebum on the skin, and young children, who don't yet have that active oil gland function, are often troubled by dry skin conditions. Itching (puritus) is the most frequent skin symptom. It may be indicative of an internal problem such as Diabetes or iron-deficient anemia, which can and does create havoc with the skin all over the body. The treatment of dry skin must be constant and requires an excellent emollient moisturizer. It should provide long-lasting moisture that is needed to minimize the development of continued dryness, while providing a sealing barrier to prevent further moisture loss. Celazome's Penetrating Moisturizing Body Lotion is our recommendation.Have your own question for Carolyn? Click here to submit it! | |
