🌞 Melasma: What You Need to Know 🌞

If you have noticed blotchy, brown patches on your skin, especially on the face, you are not alone. Melasma is a common condition, often triggered by sun exposure, hormones, and genetics. While it can be stubborn, there is hope with the right approach!

🛡️ Sun Protection is Non-Negotiable:
Daily SPF 50+ is your best friend, no matter the weather. Pair it with a wide-brimmed hat for extra protection.

🧴 Topical Treatments Work Wonders:
Products with hydroquinone, tretinoin, or azelaic acid can lighten and even out skin tone over time.

💊 For Stubborn Cases:
Oral tranexamic acid (TxA) might be an option, but only with careful guidance.

✨ Procedures, With Caution:
Chemical peels can help, but lasers should be used sparingly to avoid worsening pigmentation.

Melasma takes patience and lifelong care. Let’s work together to manage it effectively. Book a consultation at New Creation Dermatology to get started!

✨ What is Alopecia Areata? ✨

Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition that causes sudden, patchy hair loss. Your immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, leading to bald patches on the scalp, beard, eyebrows, and even eyelashes.

🔴 Who Can Get It? It affects around 2% of people worldwide, regardless of age or gender. Those with a family history or other autoimmune conditions are more at risk.

🟠 Signs to Watch Look out for bald patches, which can sometimes progress to complete scalp hair loss (Alopecia Totalis) or total body hair loss (Alopecia Universalis).

🟢 Treatment Options From topical steroids to newer JAK inhibitors, various treatments aim to calm the immune response and promote hair regrowth. There are no quick fixes, but effective options exist.

⭐️ Reach Out Today! Early diagnosis is key. Contact New Creation Dermatology for a personalised consultation.

🪳 What is Scabies? 🪳
Scabies is a contagious skin condition caused by tiny mites that burrow under your skin, laying eggs that trigger severe itching, especially at night. It spreads through prolonged skin contact or by sharing personal items like bedding.

🔍 Symptoms to Watch For
You will notice a red, itchy rash with small bumps or burrows, often around the hands, wrists, waist, or groin.

💡 Treatment
Good news! Scabies is treatable. Apply 5% permethrin cream or take oral ivermectin. Make sure everyone in close contact gets treated, and wash all clothes and bedding properly!

🪮Pro Hair Tips from Your Dermatologist! 🪮

⭐Want healthier, stronger hair? Start by learning your hair type—whether it’s curly, straight, or somewhere in between, the right products and routine make all the difference!

🧴When shampooing, gently massage your scalp to clear oil buildup. Wash every other day for most hair types—overwashing can dry out both hair and scalp!

🪮Remember, wet hair is fragile. Detangle gently with a wide-tooth comb, and avoid tight braids or ponytails that can lead to traction alopecia.

🌜Never go to bed with wet hair—it traps moisture, encouraging bacterial growth.

I’m genuinely excited about the upcoming congress in Gqeberha | Port Elizabeth from 22-25 August 2024. The diverse range of topics, including pediatric dermatology, laser treatments, dermatologic surgery, trichoscopy, and skin cancer in skin of colour and rosacea in skin of colour promises to be incredibly enriching. I’m particularly looking forward to the original research presentations and hearing from our registrars. It’s a fantastic opportunity to learn and share knowledge that will help us all provide even better care for our patients.⭐️

🌟 Tinted Sunscreens: Are They Really Effective? 🌟

Curious if tinted sunscreens are worth it? Let’s break it down!

Tinted sunscreens combine SPF with a protective tint, often containing iron oxides, which can help guard against visible light and reduce pigmentation risks. But here’s a crucial tip: Choosing the right tint is essential. If the shade is too dark for your skin, you might not apply enough to achieve effective UV protection. Remember, not applying enough sunscreen can turn a SPF 50 into a mere SPF 25! 🛡️

For best results, pick a tint that matches your skin tone and apply generously. Reapply every two hours and combine with other sun safety measures like hats and shade. 🌞

At New Creation Dermatology Clinic, we can help you select the perfect sun protection tailored to your skin. Stay safe and radiant! ✨
