阿瑞发的雀斑



阿瑞发是被老同学兼多年好友的米娜拖进诊所的。阿瑞发有双大眼睛、皮肤白皙,是个天生丽质的美女,但近看之下发现她的额头,鼻子和双颊上却是长满褐色斑点。

这一些褐色小斑点都是雀斑呀!"

欧美国家常把雀斑看成女性美。然而,在亚洲国家,雀斑被认为是脸上的瑕疵,大家都千方百计的要去除它。

"雀斑是怎么形成的呢?我自少女时代就有这一些斑点了,近年来越来越明显,花了很多钱买了美白产品,有时候明明看似淡化了,不到几个月又重新长出来。"

"雀斑是因为色素代谢问题而形成的,也和遗传、阳光曝晒、皮肤pH值增高、内分泌失调等因素有关。在马来西亚这样热带气候的国家,大部分人长雀斑都是因为没有好好防晒而使皮肤受损所致。

这斑点能够去除吗?

能。最直接的方法就是做镭射疗程了。

镭射?听起来很可怕。我可是从来没有考虑过用镭射去除雀斑。没有其它的治疗方法吗?我用过了某品牌的淡化色斑护肤品大约半年,之后觉得功效不够理想又换了另外一种名牌护肤品。果酸换肤和脉冲光我做了不下十次了。去年年尾我也在某一家美容院尝试针挑雀斑疗程。

有的。从美白护肤品,果酸换肤,脉冲光,到镭射疗程,都是雀斑的治疗方法。针挑雀斑?这是什么疗程,是以尖针把那雀斑挑出来吗?

是啊!还弄到我脸上血淋淋的。“

那不是很痛吗?你连针挑都不怕,怎么害怕镭射呢?

镭射?那不会有辐射吗?

谁说镭射有辐射了?我们生活中多的是各种各样的镭射:镭射打印机、镭射唱碟等等。所以镭射并不可怕。话说回来,雀斑的治疗有这么多种,选择哪一个疗程应该根据色斑在皮肤的位置而定。比方说雀斑如果处在皮肤表层顶层,那么用护肤品或做果酸换肤就会有效了。如果色斑处在比较深层,那么就需要做脉冲光或镭射。你的雀斑长在靠近眼部周围,也相对比较深,我建议做镭射,比较安全。

只要做了镭射,我的雀斑就能消除了?

镭射的效果视乎个人皮肤对镭射的反应,你可能需要3次到5次的疗程才能达到比较理想的效果。更重要的是一定要做好防晒功夫。多吃蔬果,戒掉抽烟、喝酒、熬夜等不良习惯,充足的睡眠和休息都是很重要的。除此之外,你也必须避免刺激性的食物,如咖啡、可乐、浓茶、香烟、酒等。"


雀斑不是大问题。如果你觉得雀斑很可爱,你尽可以保留它。如果想要去除它,最好的方式还是让合格的医生检查,这样才能对症下药,避免不必要的花费,甚至是莫须有的皮肉之痛。比镭射更重要的是饮食和生活习惯的改变。唯有这样,才能确保脸上的斑点一去不回头。

Star News: Ugly truth awaits beauticians

The star news:  30062013

KUALA LUMPUR: Beauty centre operators and non-doctors found to be practising aesthetic medicine could be fined up to RM50,000 or jailed for up to two years once the amendments to the Medical (Amendment) Act 2012 and its regulations come into operation before year-end.
Health Ministry officials said Section 33 of the Medical (Amendment) Act 2012 stated that first-time offenders could be fined not more than RM50,000 and jailed not more than two years while the fine could increase to not more than RM100,000 and jail term to not more than three years for second-time offenders.
Deputy health director-general Datuk Dr S. Jeyaindran said the ministry was in its final stages of drafting the regulations following the amendments passed in Parliament in June last year.
“Beauticians can be hauled up by the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC) if they portray themselves as doctors or they carry out procedures that only doctors can do under the guidelines on aesthetic medical practice,” he said during a press conference at the 2nd Malaysia-Singapore Conference of Aesthetic Medicine yesterday.
Dr Jeyaindran was asked if the ministry was taking any action to address loopholes in the law that did not penalise beauty centre owners who conducted invasive cosmetic procedures.
The Star recently reported that consumer bodies urged that they and untrained doctors be criminalised for carrying out the procedures.
Recently, guidelines on aesthetic medical practice was introduced and doctors who carried out the procedures and did not have the credentials to do so would be hauled up by the MMC for breach of professional code of practice.
Dr Jeyaindran said the first batch of 22 doctors had been registered with the National Registry of Registered Medical Practitioners Practising Aesthetic Medicine.
