Antimicrobial function: to reduce the number of microorganisms that proliferate and fill the follicle acne. Are primarily used the following components:

• benzoyl peroxide at moderate doses
• triclosan
• azelaic acid, a moderate concentration
• Ethyl lactate
• moderate exposure, and only occasionally in the sun because the rays are antimicrobial.

But WARNING: prolonged or repeated for hours on successive days is the risk that the skin surface fattening because to accumulate keratin, and they block the sebaceous follicles and aggravate the acne process.
Comment

The components listed above can be identified in Dermopharmacy products and the pharmaceutical products. In recent years, the most used products often incorporate benzoyl peroxide or azelaic acid, because they develop corrective functions simultaneously, but not all patients react positively to DIFERENES TYPES OF TREATMENT OF ACNE.

Counseling

If despite treatment, the acne situation does not yield, but intensified in an obvious way, is essential to visit a dermatologist. Only these professionals can prescribe medications that will allow for a more aggressive querolíticos treatment with anti-inflammatories, antibiotics or hormones, the choice of which requires a good diagnosis and monitoring that allows to monitor possible adverse effects.

Multicausality in acne and the role that hormonal changes during puberty, become difficult any attempt to choose the therapeutic dermatologist because whatever it is, the improvement was observed over time. It sometimes happens that when you start antiacneicos treatment, initially the patient feels that their skin disease worsened, so this situation must be perceived by the treating professional to prevent dropout of the patient, especially when it comes to a teenager. The products are applied to these cures must develop at least three functions:

1. Desescamante function: similar to having a “peeling” moderate (function also called “keratolytic” moderate), through which the channel through which would have to move the fat produced by the gland is free of obstruction and has exit. This activity causes mild skin irritation. This observation is very important, as has been shown that most of the products used to treat acne, have a salutary effect and produce a skin irritant action, practitioners who prescribe should warn their patients about the effects undesirable side. The most effective components, regardless of the treatment that your dermatologist can prescribe are as follows:

• sulfur and / or salicylic acid
• azelaic acid at moderate concentrations
• benzoyl peroxide at moderate concentrations
• glycolic acid at moderate concentrations
• exfoliating microbeads as part of cleaning fluids

2. Anti-seborrheic Function: also called sebum-regulating or sebostatic, with which it seeks to reduce excessive sebum secretion that characterizes youthful skin acne ices. There are several components moderately effective, among which are:

• sulfur (now less used than before)
• azelaic acid
• zinc sulfate or acetate
• Extract Arctium majus or Nasturtium officinalis
• benzoyl peroxide at moderate doses
• porous microparticles capable of absorbing more fluid fat, thus reducing the brightness of the skin

Acne treatment is complex because the causes that arise may be multiple, ie, that the etiology is multi-factorial.

But despite the complexities of the subject of acne, whatever the factor is produced or affected skin area, we must take account of the meeting a “gold standard” for treatment of acne chosen to succeed .

1) Hygiene measures:

• Do not manipulate the skin to try to extract “the pimple”: The pressure exerted with the thumb and forefinger of one hand, or worse using fingers of both hands to do more strength, can cause damage to the follicle sebaceous, which contains germs and can spread the infection causing dermatitis in neighboring areas. So, you do not miss the appearance of small blisters filled with pus (pustules), which are to be feared, because irreversible scarring. Sanitized twice daily to the affected skin of the face, torso, and some affected area. Usually indicates water and soap (preferably one with action Anti-seborrheic dermatological product) and then dry completely once cleared the area.

2) Dietary Change: Reducing foods that tend to cause skin reactions in young people. Foods that should be banned are the chocolate and strawberries, but it should be noted that as previously stated, the food is only one factor that interacts with others. Read the rest of this entry »

A vasectomy is less invasive than a sterilization surgery in women. An increasing number of couples choosing vasectomy as a permanent birth control.

The male reproductive system

To understand what a sterilization (vasectomy) is needed to understand the male reproductive system and how it works. The testes are located in a bag in the penis called the scrotum. Each testicle is connected to a thin coiled tube, epididymis (epididymis), where sperm are stored and mature in 6 weeks. Epididymis is related to the prostate gland with a pair of tubes called the vas deferens. Vas deferens is part of a larger bundle of tissue containing blood vessels and nerves and lymphatic vessels, known funikel. Read the rest of this entry »

There is only one type of cellulite, but it can be in different stages. We have divided these into 4 stages based on our experience and research in this field.

1.First Stage
The first stage of cellulite is formed of fatty tissue under the skin (subdermalt fats). Adipose tissue begins to agglomerate and the body’s smallest blood vessels and lymph are partially destroyed so that the throughput is limited. The skin is not the nutrition it needs. Water begins to seep out of the broken capillaries. Fat cells begin to swell to 2-3 times its original size and they start to “lump” them together to harder balls. On stage one is the outer skin (epidermis) is still fresh and well-functioning, the deeper layer (dermis) is still quite functional. Still, there are no visible signs of the formation of cellulite.
