It is start to changes in the sweat gland and sebaceous gland with age, and start to skin dry. There is no elasticity and reduced about 20%  due to The thickness of the dermis under the skin also changes. Also in the case of women in menpause as the peak, afing in skin will be accelerated.

The secretion of estrogen etc., which helps in the synthesis of the elastic fibers, is drastically decreased, and the skin texture is dried. So the skin tone becomes dull and irregular. The epidermis of the skin becomes thin, blood vessels are visible, and wrinkles, pore enlargement, and elasticity appear.

* Teenager skin care *

The skin is smooth because of the good function of the skin, the blood circulation is good and the texture of the skin is delicate
It is elastic and glossy.
So if you care about cleansing, you can maintain a good skin condition. Because it is a period when the metabolism and hormones are changed vigorously, you should pay attention to acne by controlling sebum.

* 20's skin care *

Depending on the degree of management, aging begins in the mid-20s, it is important to keep collagen and elastin fibers involved in skin elasticity, so it is important to make skin darker and take care of ultraviolet rays that cause wrinkles. In addition, select cosmetics by carefully grasping skin condition according to external environment.

* skin care over 30's *

As the overall metabolic function is lowered, the skin starts drying due to a decrease in the moisturizing factor of the skin, and wrinkles start to appear. Be careful when choosing a cleanser because sebum secretion is also decreasing.

The change of the keratin cycle slows down the keratin detachment and accumulates, the skin tone becomes dark, the skin becomes dry, and it is recommended to keep the pack moisturizing 2-3 times a week and manage once a week for exfoliation.

prevention for skin aging

* Using sunscreen consistently *
The biggest cause of skin aging and dullness, black spot, and stain is ultraviolet rays. For outdoor activities, use a sunscreen with a high UV index and apply at regular intervals.
In addition, we use cosmetics and makeup products that have UV protection index.

* keep moisturizing *
As you get older, changes in the skin's epidermis increase your water loss and your skin becomes dry. Moisture content also begins to decrease by more than 60% of body weight in the 30's. In addition, as the natural moisturizing factor that keeps moisture is lowered, the oil and water balance are broken and the skin becomes more dry and rough. Moisturizing skin care should be sufficient to provide moisture.

* Prevent skin harmful oxygen *

Smoking blocks the cellular respiration of the skin and interferes with blood purification.
It is also responsible for the nutrient supply and removal of waste products that skin cells need. If you get stressed, you feel fatigue easily and your body will increase the harmful oxygen.
It is a good idea to maintain a lifestyle that inhibits the production of harmful oxygen.

* Keeping your skin antioxidant *
Increased environmental pollution and stress stimulate oxidation of the skin, and harmful oxygen is generated from these damages, causing aging and disease. Antioxidant activity of various vitamins, minerals and balanced nutrient intake through the nutrient environment is less affected by oxidation when the good. It is advisable to maintain antioxidants through the supply of fruit or vegetable colors that can prevent free radicals.

skin regeneration and How to use the regeneration tape

 skin regeneration and How to use the regeneration tape

when you has the wound and occured wound with blood as much as after laser like spot, mole, scars remove etc. the most important thing is regeneration enviroment.
That is, it is important to make an environment in which the regeneration of the skin can be enough.
Today, environmental factors which is involved in regeneration of skin and
Let's look at how to use the regeneration tape.

Factors affecting the regeneration environment

1. moist environment

Moist, state of not dry environment is a important more than anything. When a wound occurred oozing coming up, at this time the oozing includes substances regeneration that are involved in the white blood cells, macrophages, cell growth factor.
The moist environment is important because dry conditions limited the role of regeneration materials.
Of the old wound treatment was the oriented disinfection treatment for  minimize the inflammation. Most of the wounds were managed by a gauze and if the occurred the scab on a part of wounds when dry. Unfortunately, it is peeled in the process of removing the gauze up to the top tissue in many cases for generating a second wound.

2. Infection

Skin conditions that contained the bacteria should be prevented smooth regeneration as of the skin material. At this case debris remain or other substances in the wound that delays regeneration due to dried up occured the scab. We should also careful because increase the chance of infection. As well as the regeneration can be delayed according to the degree of inflammation. Therefor there have high possibility to occured the scars.

3.  Temperature

When the temperature rises greatly increases the concentration of the oxygen supplied to tissue therefore caused an extension of the blood vessel.

 4. Oxygen concentrations

If the oxygen concentration is high, the nuclear fission of the epithelial cells is increased by 5 to 10 times. Thereby, increase in skin regeneration purification, granulation of the wound of the action of the substance, and promotes epithelial cells regeneration. Therefore, it is recommended to warm up protected to maintain high oxygen concentrations.

The conditions of the regeneration tape

1. Hydrocolloid ingredient  = moist environment 

Main component of the hydrocolloid is component to the playback tape absorbs oozing(discharge) should not dry out the wound. So, it helps the continued role of regeneration on the wound.
Applying the playback tape has been kept moist, as that could be occur the scab in a dry environment in the past, contrariwise when using the regeneration tape does not occur the scab as gauze.

2. Infection control, the temperature rise, a protective effect

By using a tape prevents external invasion of bacteria, and is the temperature rises by a thermal insulation. And therefore it increases the supply of oxygen, it becomes a smooth movement of the regeneration material. It also protects the wound by preventing the shock or damage from outside.

How to use the regeneration tape

The method most commonly used for when remove the  point(like more, pigmentation, milium etc.) in dermatology. Attach the regeneration tape after the operation.

The day of the procedure, it is advisable to attach large size regeneration tape than wound for maintain the amount of oozing.
Maintaining a moist environment well, so that the tape does not fall.

2-3 days after the procedure is even oozing is leaking out. In this case, the wound should not be touched in order to minimize infection. Wipe away the discharge using a cotton swab around the wound.

oozing appearance in the tape

Sometimes there is a case to use a disinfectants by mistake recognized as inflammation. 

It is shaped that filled of whitish absorbed oozing(discharge). At this time, if you use a disinfectants due to effect of strong disinfection on normal tissue can cause injuries again. After 5-7 days attached the regeneration tape it was decreases that amount of oozing, the skin is filling up and to remove the regeneration tape. 

After removing the tape, the sunscreen use carefully in order to prevent the pigmentation of skin deposition.
