Check out the ABCDE’s OF Melanoma  #skincancer #saveyourskin


Most moles appear on the skin during childhood and adolescence. Moles will grow as the child  grows. Some moles will darken, and others will lighten. These changes are expected and seldom a sign of melanoma, the most-serious skin cancer.
These are the following ways in which you can detect melanoma :
  • A change to a mole or a new mole is often the first sign of melanoma.
  • You can find melanoma early by checking your own skin.
  • If you see a mole or other spot that’s growing, itching, bleeding, or changing in any way, immediately make an appointment to see a dermatologist.

Impetigo

By -

Impetigo is a skin infection which is extremely contagious and affects primarily children and infants which usually causes itchy sores and blisters to appear around the mouth and face. Impetigo is characterized by red sores on the face, especially around the nose and mouth. These sores later burst and form honey-colored crusts. The affected child should be kept away from others for about 24-to 48 hours after starting treatment after which the child will no longer be contagious. Without treatment, the child remains contagious until the sores resolve on their own. Symptoms start with red or pimple-like sores surrounded by red skin. These sores usually occur on your face, arms, and legs. The sores fill with pus, then break open after a few days and form a thick crust. You can treat impetigo with antibiotics.

#Microneedling ( collagen induction therapy ) is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that is used to treat skin concerns through collagen production which helps to reduce the appearance of acne scars and stretch marks. It isn’t invasive like plastic surgery, so the recovery time is minimal. After the treatment , your skin works fairly quickly to rejuvenate new tissue. In theory, you should see results within a couple of weeks. While this might seem a less painful option, the problem is that you won’t achieve the same results. The punctures made during professional micro-needling are designed to induce skin rejuvenation. Micro-needling may be one of the quickest and easiest ways to get more youthful looking skin. Not only does it make your skin look rejuvenated but it can also treat acne, help reduce scarring and even reduce oil production and black heads! Using a pen with a small head that contains 10+ needles, it vibrates at high power, and at a certain
