Achieving beautiful and radiant skin is a common desire for everyone, regardless of gender.
Many people harbour resolutions aimed at enhancing their skills and appearance. Is that something you aspire to as well?
Some individuals draw inspiration from their idols, particularly in the beauty department.
However, they may not realise that not every trend complements their appearance, particularly those with Asian features.
Just because you want to look like a K-Pop idol, for example, you ignore everything, including the implications that will affect your face.
Through a sharing by Regalion Clinic, the aesthetic clinic founder and medical expert Dr Che Muhammad Hafiz Che Baharum, acknowledged that there are cases reported on social media, mostly involving severe complications, as a result of choosing the wrong treatments.
"Among the reported cases, victims undergo procedures such as filler injections, IV drips, or Intravenous Infusion Treatment for fair skin.
"Not only that, there are also many other types of facial injection procedures done solely to look attractive.
"The Malaysian public must be aware that we can avoid such things well and can be addressed in the future," he said.
Therefore, he shares five beauty trends that can be practiced:
Minimal or Thin Makeup
Over-reliance or frequent use of makeup is also not good for facial skin. We also need to give the skin some time off from wearing makeup.
Some makeup products used may also contain dangerous chemicals that can cause allergies to the skin.
Therefore, the community needs to be disciplined and consistent in taking proper care of their facial skin.
When the skin is healthy, it naturally appears radiant and bright. This provides more confidence for someone to appear without wearing makeup when going out in public.
Unisex or Universal Skin Care
Proper facial skin care is not only encouraged for women but also for the men!
Perhaps, in the past, men were more hesitant as they might feel embarrassed if their friends knew they were too thorough, sometimes surpassing women in taking care of facial skin.
It is not something strange, and it is not a matter to be ashamed of because the skin is an essential organ for every human being.
It becomes a responsibility and a trust to take good care of the skin. So, let's all, whether men or women, take care of it.
Glowing Healthy Body Skin
Many people still focus on taking care of the skin on their faces only, neglecting the skin in other areas such as the body. Uneven skin tone is quite noticeable.
Such situations often occur, leading to suspected skin issues.
Therefore, do not forget to take care of the skin in other areas, at least by choosing an appropriate body soap, applying moisturiser, or using specific serums according to skin suitability.
Beauty from Within
Everyone wants to always look beautiful, handsome, elegant, and neat in their own way.
However, some still choose shortcuts to quickly whiten the skin or get rid of freckles and acne scars without considering long-term effects.
Choosing the wrong procedures can harm one's internal health. For example, the Whitening IV drip procedure contains harmful substances and very high doses for the human body, potentially causing permanent damage to the kidneys.
Daily Skincare Routine
Firstly, one must understand what is meant by complete skincare, which includes products such as facial wash cleanser, toner, face moisturiser, and sunscreen or sunblock.
Additionally, you can use a suitable facial serum, masks, and face scrubs.
Moreover, it's essential to understand that lips are also susceptible to sunlight. Therefore, ensure they are protected so that you don't regret it if signs of aging, such as dark, dry, and cracked lips, appear.
You can undergo lip therapy with laser treatment and for maintenance, use lip balm containing essential ingredients like vitamin C, vitamin E, Shea Butter, Hyaluronic acid, and others as protection for your lip skin.
May this year 2024 bring greater awareness among our community about more suitable and safe ways to achieve their dreams of having healthy and beautiful facial skin.
