Director Im Eiseok of Im Eiseok Theme Dermatology appeared on TV Chosun’s Health Documentary.
The skin condition and scalp condition of three housewives were examined at Im Eiseok Theme Dermatology.





Housewife A, who said she gets skin care only occasionally
Her skin age came out 8 years older than her actual age, so from now on she needs to take care of her skin consistently.



When you reach middle age, all functions begin to decline.
Elasticity decreases, the skin becomes dull, and aging of all organs progresses rapidly,
so you need to take much more care than younger people.

In particular, if the skin is damaged and dry, or if it does not retain moisture well,
it can be easily damaged when exposed to a lot of sunlight.


Especially for women, female hormones decrease during menopause.
As female hormones decrease, all normal functions decline.
That is why skin aging progresses more quickly,
so as you get older, you need to pay more attention to your skin.
A habit of going out into the sun with a bare face right after waking up in the morning



When you are exposed to a lot of sunlight, you end up losing more than you gain.
Skin aging progresses more quickly, and in severe cases, skin cancer can also develop.
Also, blemishes and pigmentation can appear, so there is no reason to deliberately expose yourself to sunlight if you can avoid it.
A habit of washing your face with hot water and scrubbing your face hard

You should never do that!
When you scrub too aggressively, skin damage occurs,
and dead skin cells are removed, but the stratum corneum is the layer that protects the skin. If it is removed,
your skin becomes very sensitive to external irritation and turns red and dry.

Our skin is usually around 31 degrees Celsius.
It is most important to wash with lukewarm water, similar to the skin’s temperature.
If you wash with water that is too hot or too cold, it can actually cause damage.
A habit of leaving a mask pack on your face for too long


Mask packs are meant to provide moisture and help absorb beneficial ingredients,
but if you leave them on for too long, the pack dries out.
When it dries, moisture from your skin is drawn into the dry mask.
That makes the skin even drier and causes dead skin to flake off.
That is why it is best to follow the exact recommended time for mask packs.
(Usually 10 to 15 minutes)

After 2 weeks of the solution, what were the results?
After two weeks, all three participants had taken good care of their skin, and the results showed.
If they continue to care for their skin consistently, I think it will improve much more than it is now!!
