Have a nice weekend

Have a nice weekend, everyone. Semoga segala sesuatu nya lancar malam ini sehingga keinginan untuk pergi jalan-jalan ke luar rumah dapat berjalan dengan baik. Adakah rencana spesifik malam ini? Saya bermalam minggu di rumah saja bersama keluarga saya. Main sama anak, sama istri diselingi dengan nge-blog. Kebetulan ada beberapa daftar lagu yang ingin saya download buat konsumsi si "K" alias Kevin, my sweety little angle.

Learning More About Acne Scars

Macules and Scars:
Before discus the topic of scars, I need to clarify the difference between Macules and Scars. Macules may look like scars, but they are not scars in the sense that a permanent change has occurred. Macules are essentially the final stage of most inflamed acne lesions. They are normally flat, reddish spots that can remain for up to 8 months. But the difference between a Macule and a scar is that a Macule will end up disappearing completely whereas a scar will remain for years or indefinitely.

As for scars, this can also vary from person to person. With some individuals, scars may remain for a lifetime without change but with others, their skin will undergo a form of remodeling that will eventually diminish the scar.

Another factor that needs to be evaluated is the human element of scarring. People simply have different feelings about acne scars. Those who are distressed about it more actively seek out treatment to remove the scar than those who are more indifferent about the scars.

Cause of Scars:
First we have determining the cause of scars. A scar is a mark left in the skin by the healing of a wound or surgical incision in which the normal functional tissue (skin) is replaced by connective tissue (scar). In the case of acne, the lesion is caused by the body’s inflammatory response to sebum, bacteria and dead cells that are trapped in the plugged sebaceous follicle.

When your skin tissue has suffered a lesion of some sorts, your body will attempt to heal the injured site. By increasing the white blood cells in the area along with an array of inflammatory molecules whose function is to repair the damaged tissue and fight infection. In the end, the repair job can be messy, and the site of the lesion is now filled with fibrous scar tissue or eroded tissue. As for the inflammatory molecules and white blood cells, they can remain at the acne lesion for days and even weeks.

Take note of the fact that not everyone functions in the same way, and this holds true with our skin as well. Some people are simply more prone to scarring than others.

Treatment for scars:
Remember that treating acne and treating acne scars are two completely different things. Treating your acne has nothing to do with treating an acne scar. Acne scars can indeed be treated, but it is important that an acne sufferer bring their acne condition under control first if they still suffer from moderate to severe acne.

Once your acne subsides, make an appointment with a dermatologist and discuss the methods (if applicable) of scar treatment(s) he/she recommend you undergo to treat your scars. There are many methods to treat your scars. These methods according to your scar type, size and location, type of skin, and of course, money. You should discuss the detail with your dermatologist.

Before doing scar treatment, ask yourself and before having your dermatologist undergoes the decided procedure(s): do the scars damage you emotionally, what treatment can you afford?
Remember, you don’t need scar treatment by completely restoring your skin. It very much depends on the severity of your scars, your skin type, your skins ability to regenerate, etc. Significant improvements can be achieved, but complete restoration is often impossible.

Indahnya siang ini

siang ini terasa indah. tidak panas seperti biasanya. Hari-hari ini memang surabaya dan sekitarnya diguyur hujan yang sangat lebat. beberapa titip bahkan terjadi banjir. Itulah sebuah ketidakteraturan cuaca yang melanda negara kita. Tapi tidak hanya negara kita sih. Nampaknya pemanasan global mengancam kelangsungan bumi ini secara menyeluruh. Situasi business uncertaint benar-benar tidak hanya menjalar dari sisi ekonomi tapi juga kelestarian alam. ah, sudahlah...
