What should I do if I get chicken skin in summer?

1. Chemical peel. You can go to the hospital to use fruit acid for skin peeling, because it is safer to go to the hospital, and the doctors are more professional. So if you are afraid that using fruit acid will damage your skin, you can choose to go to the hospital, but you must choose some regular hospitals, otherwise you will still waste money and not get good results. If you don't want to go, you can also use low-concentration fruit acid or salicylic acid skin care products for local application on a daily basis. The effect is also very good in the long run.

2. Drug induction. Drugs are used to induce normalization of the deep layer of the skin's stratum corneum, mainly through vitamin A acid (such as isotretinoin, adapalene, etc.), because vitamin A not only has the effect of preventing night blindness, it also has a certain good effect on preventing keratosis pilaris, and vitamin A can also make the skin smoother and more moisturized. It is a very important beauty product. However, if you want to achieve the effect by taking vitamin A, you must be careful not to exceed the specific daily limit, otherwise, it is very likely to cause toxic reactions of vitamin A poisoning.

3. Hormone drugs. You can use fluticasone, triamcinolone acetonide and other hormonal drugs for topical application, which have certain good effects on the treatment of chicken skin. However, you should pay attention to the fact that such drugs cannot be used for a long time. After all, they are hormones, and long-term use can cause considerable harm to the body.

4. Sun protection. If you have chicken skin, you must take good sun protection measures, because people with chicken skin have fragile and sensitive skin, and are easily disturbed by foreign substances. Direct exposure to ultraviolet rays will make chicken skin worse, so in this case everyone must do a good job of daily sun protection.
