⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This client has seen amazing results in just 7 weeks. Her skin is less inflamed, calmer and all that remains is some mild pigmentation which will clear up in no time!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The biggest issue for this client was her long term abuse of topical steroid creams for eczema that she'd been using since her teens! Her skin had become "addicted" to the steroid cream and every time she tried to wean herself off the drug, her skin would flare up really badly so she'd go back to using it regularly!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Her situation got more complicated when at 30 she started to develop acne. Not realising that her steroid use may have been the cause, she tried a tonne of other acne treatments that made no difference to her skin.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Having never suffered from acne in her life until now, she was at breaking point when she first came to talk to me and couldn't figure out why her skin was freaking out! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After a long consultation and learning just how bad her "addiction" to steroid cream was, we began implementing a simple routine that focused on restoring her skin health and reducing inflammation!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stay tuned same time tomorrow for my mini series on #SteroidAcne!

Is your COVID mask causing acne mechanica?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Acne Mechanica is a type of inflammatory breakout that’s caused by skin friction, heat, pressure on the skin, or when skin isn't exposed to enough air. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Wearing a PPE and protective masks are just one of the reasons you can develop acne mechanica. Other common triggers are bra straps, tight workout clothing, helmets, backpacks and holding a mobile phone to your face for long periods of time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whilst avoiding the trigger (i.e wearing a mask) is ultimately the best way to get rid of acne mechanica, unfortunately many of us don't have that option so tomorrow I'm going to be sharing my top tips how to calm and reduce this type of acne!

Which would you rather eat?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Despite dairy and sugar being vilified as the worst foods for acne, it is actually vegetable oils in our diet which are the biggest problem and why acne is at an all time high!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But what makes them so bad?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Industrialised vegetable oils/fats are processed with a number of chemicals, acids and solvents to extract oil from the plant and also exposed to extreme heats which turns the oil rancid, foul-smelling and highly inflammatory!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To counterbalance this, the oils are then treated which chemical deodorisers to neutralise the smell.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
All this messing about means that vegetable oils are the biggest source of dietary free radicals, causing widespread inflammation throughout the entire body causing havoc on our skin, hormones and overall health!
