You can leave your mask on!

Maskne and new technology in medical aesthetics. What happens to the skin with Maskne?

It derives from the combination of the words MASK and ACNE and is the term used today to describe the acne symptoms that appear with prolonged use of the mask on the parts of the face covered by the mask (mainly on the chin or nose and cheeks. perioral area).

The skin with MASKNE is irritated, the pores become clogged with sebum, the bacteria multiply and black spots, pimples and redness appear.

Why does MASKNE appear?

  • increased temperature inside the mask leading to sweating and sebum hypersecretion
  • increased sweating which causes dehydration and creates a new vicious cycle of oiliness (the skin overworks to restore the necessary moisture and overproduces sebum to retain it)
  • intense moisture from "trapped exhalations" which increases oiliness
    friction between the mask and the skin leading to irritation and "suffocation" of the skin
  • makeup on the skin under the mask, combined with sebum, sweat and poor oxygenation, burdens the skin
  • Improper skin care under the mask (because the area is not visible, sometimes we skip its care)

Note:

MASKNE does not only appear on oily skin. Even in normal or dry skin, one can see the results of MASKNE.

How we deal with it:

We modify or enrich our daily skin care with products that fight MASKNE, act against acne symptoms, soothe the skin from irritations and restore its healthy appearance, comfort and well-being. This is excellently achieved with frequent medical treatments of regeneration, hydration and nutrition.

Long-term use of the mask does not help the skin to breathe freely. Thus, skin cells find it difficult to oxygenate. But oxygenation is one of the main functions of skin cells to maintain their vitality: among other things, it helps the collagen synthesis and maintain the skin’s elasticity, firmness and density, with a radiant appearance and vitality. And there comes the rejuvenating serum with the appropriate facials revitalizing, to restore and increase the lost levels of the cell oxygenation and restore the proper structure and function of the skin, which was temporarily lost due to the new, mask daily routine. It is ideal as a complementary treatment to normal adult skin.
