Common Skin Problems
-
Dull skin is a common problem amongst women, it is caused by the accumulation of dead skin
cells on the skin’s surface, which makes skin look flaky, dry and rough. As a result, makeup looks
patchy and the effective of skincare products is reduced. Therefore, it is important to improve
skin turnover by removing dead skin cells and encouraging blood circulation for radiant and
healthy skin.
Skin turnover to a cell renewal cycle whereby new skin cells start to develop at the bottom of the dermis. They gradually shed off as dead skin after they move up and form the hornied layer. Through this renewal process, skin appears fresh and radiant. However, factors like insufficient sleep, stress, pollution and lack of exercise slow down the cell renewal process.

Pore problems are a big concern for every woman especially in our hot and humid weather
which activates oil glands in produce excess sebum. This causes our skin to appear shiny and
grimy. Other factors such as stress, hormonal imbalance and insufficient sleep can cause
problems like blackheads, enlarged pores and even acne! Therefore, it’s a necessary to keep
pore clean to prevent build-up of excess sebum and clogging.
Blackheads are found mainly on the T-zone, where oil glands are most active. As dirt accumulates in the pores, the excess sebum oxidizes and forms the blackheads. This is turns makes pores appear darker and cause skin to look rough and uneven.
Pores open when blackheads are not removed, and excess sebum is neglected for a long time. Keratin build-up push pores even wider, making them more obvious.
Open Pores can worsen when skin agues because ageing skin loses elasticity and firmness, leading to saggy pores.
Smoking cigarettes causes wrinkles and sagginess as it breaks down collagen and vitamin C supply, which supports collagen formation.

Eyes, a key ageing zone
The skin in the eyelids is 5 times thinner and more fragile than other facial zones. With time, the number of keratinocytes decreases and the skin around the eyes become thinner. The eyelids become more creased, loosened and start to droop, making eyes look more tired. Dark circles and puffiness are accentuated.
Collagen in the dermis, the skin’s inner layer, is responsible for the skin’s firmness. Together with eastin and hyaluronic acid, it supports the skin’s elasticity and softness. As a result of ageing and UV damage, old collagen accumulates, hindering the production of new collagen, causing wrinkles and sagginess.
Therefore, it is important to use anti-ageing skincare products and supplements to keep skin firm and healthy. Often, products alone may not be enough to revitalize skin around the eye area, SkinPerfect’s range of wrinkle reduction treatments are
Aside from the natural effects of aging, factors like pollution and a stressful lifestyle also contribute to the decline of collagen production and lead to skin ageing. Other skin ageing factors include.
-
UV exposure causes 90% of premature skin ageing. UVA penetrates deep into the skin’s dermis
layer and damages collagen and elastin.
-
Smoking cigarettes cause wrinkles and sagginess as it breaks down collagen and Vitamin C
supply, which supports collagen formation.
- Accumulation of old collagen accumulates hardens in the skin layers. It prevents the production of new collagen, causing wrinkles and dullness.
Ageing Process
As we age, the rate of loss of the old skin cells from the stratum corneum slows down. The epidermis gradually gets less translucent and does not retain water so well. All the skin functions take place more slowly in mature skin, This is why older skin looks dry, less radiant and less plumped out.
These changes affect the dermis in particular and result from changes in the chemical structure of the collagen and the elastin, and to the quality and quantity of proteins and natural acids in the skin.
Intrinsic Aging
Due to the fat loss in the subcutaneous layer, the skin becomes thinner and loses much of its elasticity
