If your skin stings and hurts just from wearing a mask, let’s learn about the mask trouble prevention methods explained by Imiseok Thema Dermatology!

As the spread of coronavirus infection continues, wearing a mask has now become part of everyday life.

As people wear masks all day to prevent infection, many may be worried about skin problems such as stinging, itching,

and red breakouts around the mouth, chin, and cheeks where the mask touches.

You wear a mask to avoid coronavirus infection, but let’s look at why your skin stings and

find out what can be done to prevent mask-related skin trouble in the video!

Does wearing a mask make your skin sting?

These days, many people are visiting dermatology clinics because skin problems have developed while living with masks.

It seems many people visit because of symptoms such as facial redness, breakouts, worsening acne, or existing atopic dermatitis or seborrheic dermatitis

becoming more severe and itchy.

Because masks are necessary due to coronavirus,

it is good to wear them when meeting or coming into contact with many people, and to take them off often when you are outdoors alone.

Since masks are made of polyester synthetic resin, they can cause a lot of skin trouble when they come into contact with the skin.

If you have sensitive skin, you need to be careful because it can irritate your skin!

How to prevent mask-related skin trouble!

When wearing a mask, it is best to wear a loose-fitting mask so that it does not touch the skin as much as possible.

Some people wear the same mask for 2 to 3 days, but instead of the same mask, it is better to replace it with a new one.

If you wear the same mask for 2 to 3 days, skin trouble will become worse.

When you wear a mask, your skin temperature rises, and as a result, sebum secretion increases.

When sebum secretion increases, acne or folliculitis can worsen.

If you wear makeup and then put on a mask, the makeup and skin secretions combine and irritate the skin,

causing allergies and inflammation, so it is best to replace your mask as soon as possible.

Some people do not apply sunscreen because they are wearing a mask,

and there are people who get mask marks after exercising outdoors without sunscreen.

When going outdoors, it is best to carefully apply sunscreen to areas not covered by the mask.

This is because the areas covered by the mask often do not develop pigmentation, while the areas without the mask often become darker.

So even if you wear a mask, I hope you will make sure to apply sunscreen!

If skin trouble still develops despite taking these precautions, you must visit a dermatology clinic

and receive examination and treatment from a dermatologist.

Do not assume that everything is caused by the mask just because you are wearing one.

Since skin conditions unrelated to the mask can also occur, you should keep that in mind.

Based on more than 60 years of clinical experience, Imiseok Thema Dermatology has treated the skin of countless patients,

and has more than 60 premium laser treatment devices that can be used to create personalized treatment programs according to skin condition, and we continue to invest generously in introducing new equipment.
