A bleach bath?! 😳 Hear me out, it’s not as crazy as you might think… Diluted bleach baths can help reduce bacteria on the skin, including Staph aureus. I often recommended them to my patients with severe or infected eczema. Would you ever try one? Feature credit: @Marissa Maas #bleachbath #skin #eczema #dermatologist #skincare

Why won’t your hair grow?! 👀 There are 2 main reasons… Your hair’s growth phase is genetically determined, so some people naturally have a shorter maximum length! 🧬 Breakage. Bleach, heat and tight styling can cause snapping, making it look like your hair simply isn’t growing. ✂️ #HairGrowth #HairBreakage #HairHealth #HairCare #HairLoss

🔥 That sharp burning feeling under the LED nail lamp is something almost everyone with gel nails has felt, and as a UK Consultant Dermatologist I want to explain what is actually happening, because it is not your imagination and it is not something you should simply sit through every time you have your nails done. 💡 The burning is called a heat spike, and it happens because gel polish hardens through a chemical reaction that releases heat as it cures, so when a powerful LED lamp cures the gel very quickly, all of that heat is released at once into the nail plate and the sensitive nail bed underneath it. 💅 It tends to feel worse when the gel is applied in thick layers, when a builder gel or extension is being cured, and particularly when your nail plate has become thin from repeated buffing and filing during prep, because a thinner nail offers far less protection between the heat and the nail bed. #nails #gelnails #dermatology #dermatologist
