Asphyxiated skin

Asphyxiated skin is the type of skin that due to lack of blood circulation or due to the application of improper astringent type of cosmetic products, has completely obstructed the pilosebaceous follicle.

Therefore, an asphyxiated skin is classified in the category of "oily skin", with a problem to liberate sebum to the outside. It solidifies within the pore, obstructing it and producing micro cysts called "miliums". Small deposits of grease, perfectly visible from the outside but they are ‘trapped’ inside the skin.

Problems

The skin presents an excess of keratinization, small micro white cysts, especially on and around cheeks and around the eyes. Rough skin and  becomes easily irritated.

Adequate treatment

You can combine the treatment with other cosmetic treatments, because of the synergic action; it increases the absorption of the product.

Initially, we recommend the client to use the AHA products at home, for at least 7 days. Thereafter it is advisable to continue with the salon treatment.
