A Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology, Sundaram will be writing twice weekly on a variety of issues, ranging from updates on the latest acne and anti-aging products on the market, to the latest cosmetic trends in pop culture.
Living with acne
Drugstores offer a mind-boggling array of products and treatments that range from "The Power Pimple Peel" to the formidable sounding "Teminator 10," next to long-time standards such as Clearasil and Stridex. A stroll down most crowded malls will find a kiosk marketing Proactiv, the skin regimen touted by celebrities such as Jessica Simpson, Vanessa Williams and Sean "Diddy" Combs as an acne cure-all. "The over-the-counter stuff isn't necessarily bad for mild acne," Ganz said. "Look for topical creams, products with salycic acid or benzoyl peroxide; that's what's in Proactiv, by the way," she said. But you might want to see a dermatologist if the over- the-counter products don't work after two months, both Ganz and Lawley advise. "If they're using these things regularly, and the (skin) is not responding after two months, it should be worth it to go to a dermatologist and start prescription treatments," Lawley said.
Pregnant skin
There are many changes that occur in the body during pregnancy. YOU may hear some horror stories about how your skin will change during pregnancy. Some of these changes, such as stretch marks, are inevitable in everyone, while some women will be fortunate to escape certain problems. These changes occur because your hormone levels increase during pregnancy. Not only does oestrogen increase, but so does the melanocyte-stimulating hormone, a hormone that stimulates the cells controlling skin pigmentation. .
