At present, “detoxification” has been used commercially to the extreme, due to the long-term “detoxification” propaganda, most people accept the “detoxification” concept, and gradually think that this is “truth”. However, many times we can see that the so-called ‘detoxification’ claimed in beauty salons is actually an excuse to cover up the real problem after the failure of skin care, which is a kind of sophistry of the business. Many dermatologists have encountered such problems in their clinics. Let’s uncover the truth and see the stories that often happen in reality, but people are still in the dark because they are unaware and don’t look deeper. I know a person who got red and itchy after a treatment at a beauty salon. But the salon told her that it’s okay, it’s the skin detoxifying. She was convinced of the salon’s claim and went back again and again for treatments. Then, the salon gave her a cream to apply, and the skin problem on her face started to heal slowly after using it. The beauty salon told her that the poison had been slowly detoxified. After some time, she was really unsure, so she took those creams to me.” The doctor took a look, it was not a detox cream at all, but an imported strong corticosteroid (all of them are in English, different people are unknown thought it was a foreign magic tool), usually used to treat skin allergies, and it is forbidden for the face. This is really some irony: “The beauty salon has been tossing your skin, causing many very serious skin problems, such as skin allergies, contact dermatitis, eczema, and even said that it is to help you detoxify. Many people are also convinced and feel that they are deeply poisoned, if not detoxified, they really do not know what will happen. Then they use strong hormones to keep these skin problems down. The end result is that the salon earns your money and leaves you with a bunch of skin problems, and you thank them for helping you detoxify. That’s ridiculous.” It is said to “remove blemishes”, but in fact, it is a fluorescent agent spot removal Fluorescent agent spot removal is one of the popular “detoxification programs” recommended by many beauty salons. But you may not expect: you want to detoxify and remove the spots, but in the end, the “old poison” has not gone, but also added new poison. This patient came to the doctor because of pigmentation spots on her face. After the test, it was found that there was a large amount of fluorescent agent left on her face. The reporter saw that the “face” on the film, in addition to around the eyes, the rest of the part is spotted with fluorescent shadows, is the residual fluorescent agent. Why are there these things? “The patient had been in a beauty salon for blemish treatment before. This film was taken here after she had a mask at the salon. The stuff the salon gave her to use contained fluorescents. When applied to the face, it makes the face look softer. This is actually using the fluorescent agent ingredient inside to cover up the pigmentation spots on the face to appear that their product is effective. Fluorescent agent residue on the skin is very difficult to wash off, even with a cleanser or rubbing, there is no way to remove it, it takes a long time to slowly remove slowly with the metabolism of the skin (the skin will automatically renew). These fluorescent agents remain in the skin for a long time is safe, will bring our skin what problems? It is not yet known, at least not for any benefit. Many cosmetic dermatologists have now observed this phenomenon, and even some well-known brands have added fluorescents. Most experts call for national legislation to ban the addition of such ingredients, but businesses are far more flexible than our regulation. The “detoxifying mask” is said to be a skin cleanser “All ‘detoxifying mask’ is a concept packaged by businesses to increase selling points and catch people’s attention, which does not exist.” Some masks do make the skin feel a lot cleaner after use. This is because these masks have a cleansing effect, just like a tissue wipe face, and not the so-called “detoxification”. Many people think that “sweating” is a kind of “skin detoxification”, but how do you understand this? He explained that sweating is a normal metabolism of the skin, an excretion of sweat. But excretion is not the same as detoxification, not to be confused. The “exfoliating cream” is likely to damage the skin The exfoliating skin should be seen dialectically, the proper removal of some of the dead skin is indeed a skin beauty method we often use, such as fruit acid treatment is a common method to remove dead skin, can make the skin new. Because too much of these “dead skin” will indeed facial skin yellowing and dull, after removing the skin will look much smoother and more beautiful. But there is a degree, over-emphasis and exaggeration of dead skin, is likely to be a trap or simply a misleading. When you apply “exfoliating cream” on your skin, there will be a lot of flakes, or black stuff. These are actually the metabolic products of the sebaceous glands of the skin, as well as some of the keratin layer. “‘Dead skin’, is the people’s term, or the businessman’s term. Medically, we call it the stratum corneum. But the name ‘dead skin’ is good for businessmen to make people intuitively think that it is something useless.” In fact, “dead skin” is in most cases a “protective film” for the skin and should not be removed too much, unless it does affect the aesthetics of the skin. “Physiologically speaking, the stratum corneum is shed every 28 days, indeed like ‘dead’ or no longer needed skin. But this so-called ‘dead skin’ is very useful to our body and is a very important protective barrier for the skin. Once destroyed, skin function will be disturbed, itchy, red, allergic and so on, so the dead skin must be carried out under the guidance of a professional cosmetic dermatologist, there must be a degree. But the reality is that many beauty salons are doing these things. In their view, beauty salons are more professional than hospitals, doctors can not solve the problem, they can solve the hospital treatment is only a ‘cure’ (because there is a recurrence), only the beauty salon ‘detoxification’ ‘health care ‘ is the ‘cure’ place (to ensure that you do not relapse). Very absurd and ridiculous, but there is a big market in the community.”
