Skin Health Insights from Director Im Yi-seok｜임이석테마피부과 Appears on *Beauty Clinic Touch Me* on August 14

At 8:00 p.m. on August 14, Director Im Yi-seok of 임이석테마피부과 will appear as a master on Channel A’s Beauty Clinic Touch Me.

In this episode, we will explore how habits we repeatedly practice without thinking in our daily lives can affect the skin,

and discuss the skin barrier, which is important to understand for healthy skin 😮

The Key to Skin Health: The Skin Barrier

The skin barrier protects the skin from external irritants and helps prevent excessive moisture loss from within the skin. In addition to external environmental factors such as fine dust and UV rays, various factors—including irregular eating habits, stress, lack of sleep, and dry indoor environments caused by air-conditioning and heating—can affect the condition of the skin.

When the skin barrier becomes weakened, the skin may react sensitively even to minor irritants that normally would not cause a problem, or you may experience dryness, causing the skin’s condition to deteriorate easily. Ultimately, maintaining healthy skin requires consistently following basic daily skincare habits, such as eating a balanced diet, getting sufficient sleep, protecting the skin from UV rays, and moisturizing appropriately, rather than relying on just one particular method.

Which Lifestyle Habits Damage the Skin Barrier?

In this episode, we take a look at skin health through the daily life of Shu, formerly of S.E.S.

What everyday lifestyle habits could negatively affect the skin?

Through an observational VCR segment, the program examines a variety of lifestyle habits, from eating habits to UV exposure!

◼ Eating far too little

Reducing food intake excessively for weight loss and repeatedly eating very small portions—like a bird’s meal—can also affect skin health. Since the skin is also part of the body, consuming the nutrients the body needs in a balanced way is important for maintaining healthy skin, rather than following an excessively restrictive diet.

◼ Repeated exposure to UV rays

UV rays are one of the main causes of skin aging. In particular, repeated exposure to sunlight without sufficient UV protection can lead to various skin changes, including reduced skin elasticity and hyperpigmentation. The program also looks at concerns about left-right facial balance, along with skin changes that may occur due to UV exposure.

◼ Is natural tanning safe for the skin?

Natural tanning, which involves direct exposure to sunlight to achieve a healthy-looking skin tone, also requires caution. Exposure to UV rays can dry out the skin, and repeated UV exposure may contribute to the development or worsening of pigmentation conditions such as melasma and dark spots.

In this episode, we examine the causes of skin concerns through the daily life of S.E.S.’s Shu,

and Director Im Yi-seok checks her skin condition and explores medical management methods suited to her current skin concerns.

The program examines how lifestyle habits that are often repeated without much thought, such as eating habits and UV exposure, can affect skin health,

and also introduces management and treatment procedures that may be considered based on the subject’s skin condition.

If you are curious about what causes skin concerns,

or how to assess and care for your current skin condition, tune in to find out.
