Couperose
Couperose occurs when the blood vessels on the face are located too close to the surface layers and have thin walls. This leads to redness, inflammation and the appearance of purulent pimples. In general, it is worth blaming genes for this "disease", but there are other factors that can aggravate the situation: sudden temperature changes, spicy food, caffeine, alcohol and fatty foods.

And since the skin of those who suffer from couperose is very sensitive, go to the use of hypoallergenic cosmetics. To even out the relief of the skin, use once a week glycol peeling.
Doctor's help

According to the world's leading experts, the Israeli ELOS-method of vascular removal is effective. It is a combination of infrared light and radio wave bipolar current. At the same time, surrounding tissues and healthy vessels are not damaged. As a result, the capillary is heated to a temperature that leads to soldering of its walls, destruction and disappearance. After the procedure, the color of the treated vessels changes. Within a few days, the accrued blood vessels and capillaries completely disappear. The course of treatment is an average of 1-2 procedures.
Acne Rash (Acne)
Sometimes the cause of this problem can be hormonal disruptions, which, in turn, are provoked by stress or a menstrual cycle. Hormonal bursts cause overproduction of fat and accelerate the cycle of cell division. This clogs the pores, which promotes the multiplication of bacteria and causes inflammation of the skin. Pore-clogging cosmetics containing fat and talc may also cause acne.
