How long does it take to recover from skin problems

In fact, there is no unified standard answer. Mild and sudden problems can be significantly improved in about a week, while chronic skin problems that have damaged the dermis often require 3 months or even longer to be completely stabilized.

A while ago, I helped a little sister from the same company treat the inflammatory acne that broke out in her aunt's period. She ate butter hot pot and iced milk tea for three days in a row. A dozen or so red and swollen acnes were very painful. She had no major skin problems, no sensitivity, no old acne marks, so I gave her some anti-inflammatory essence, told her not to touch sweet and spicy food, and went to bed before 11 o'clock. After 7 days, all the acnes were basically gone, and not even a few red marks were left.

But not all problems can be solved so quickly. If you encounter recurring sensitivity, cystic acne, or chloasma that has been deposited for many years and still think it will be cured in a week, it will really be a bit embarrassing for your skin. The epidermal metabolism cycle of our healthy skin itself lasts about 28 days, and the older we get, the slower it becomes. If the problem has damaged the dermis, the repair cycle will be doubled. There was a girl who came for online consultation before. She used a lot of "quick-acting whitening masks" from Wechat to get a hormonal face. In the early withdrawal period, she suffered from redness and acne breakouts for almost a month. Later, she slowly repaired the barrier and adjusted her skin care habits. It took half a year to finally stop having her face burn like a red apple when the season changes.

Of course, there are a lot of "7-day microdermabrasion" and "14-day spot lightening" claims on the Internet, but they are not all gimmicks. For example, if you use some mild exfoliating products, your face will be smooth to the touch on the same day, and it will look brighter, but that is just peeling off the surface of old age. Exfoliation is not a deep conditioning at all. If you pursue fast results and blindly use some quick-acting products that contain banned ingredients, you will damage the barrier instead. What was originally just a minor problem of dullness will eventually turn into a bad face with repeated sensitivity. Instead, it will take several times the time to repair it.

Many people are anxious when they first start to condition their skin. They panic when they don’t see any results after using the product for two or three days. They apply acid today and replace it with whitening essence tomorrow. Going back and forth only puts a burden on the skin. Think about it, raising skin is like raising succulents. You can't just water it today and pull it out tomorrow to see if new roots have grown, right? As long as you find the right direction of care, don't do anything blindly, and follow the steps step by step, you will actually be much faster than those who take detours.
