COVID-19 has been prolonged for more than a year, and wearing a mask has become a daily routine. However, the number of patients visiting clinics is increasing due to skin problems, moisturizing, and elasticity.

Furthermore, if the cold and dry weather of the winter is causing damage to your skin, let's find out what can be done to cure it.

What is a self-care method that can regenerate tired skin due to skin problems such as pimples, acne, and contact dermatitis while wearing a mask for a long time during the day?

It is important to wash your face thoroughly when you return home. Using a cleansing product, make enough foam to wash your face as if you were massaging it, and wash it thoroughly with lukewarm water.

Mask packs with soothing and moisturizing effects on tired skin are also recommended two to three times a week. Sufficient hydration is also important for skin moisturization.

Drinking about 2 liters of water a day is effective for adults.

Grand Plastic Surgery CEO Rhee Sewhan, M.D , said, "Many patients complains of skin trouble and reduced elasticity by wearing masks to prevent COVID-19 for a long time.

However, if self-care alone is not effective, it is possible to consider procedures such as Rejuran-Healer, which helps skin regeneration, or Ulthera, which can increase elasticity.

If you want to see a clearer effect on stretched pores and skin elasticity, you can increase satisfaction through lifting surgery.

But as the lifting surgery is a complicated surgery, it is important to get it performed by a plastic surgeon with rich clinical experience for safe results"
