What should be applied in which season and what should not be applied, many such questions related to skin keep coming in everyone’s mind. We know that no one goes to the doctor to get answers to every question that comes to mind. That is why we asked some questions to Dr. Jatin, Cosmetologist and Skin Expert of Abhivrit Aesthetics on your behalf.
These questions were related to skin, to which the doctor gave correct answers and also gave some advice. Are your thoughts hidden in the questions asked to the doctor? Let us know about the questions and their answers. So that your dilemma also goes away.
Is high SPF cream better for us?
Answering the first question, the doctor said that it is not true that ‘if you use a sunscreen with high SPF, it will be better for the skin. Actually, there is no need for a much higher SPF in the Indian Coast. 30 and 50 SPF is enough for sun protection.’
‘We mainly decide the SPF factor according to your skin type. If your skin is very oily and if your work does not require going out in the sun, then I consider SPF 30 also sufficient for the patient. But if you do continuous field work, then even 50 SPF is enough.’
Doctor Jatin’s advice on sunscreen
The doctor says that it depends on how you apply the sunscreen. The doctor said that you have to apply sunscreen multiple times, because the protection time of any sunscreen is usually 3-4 hours. Therefore, you have to re-apply the sunscreen every 4 hours and this is more important than the APF factor.
Is excessive sun exposure good or not?
Dr. Jitin replied that most people today are vitamin D deficient, so we think that the more time we stay exposed to the sun, the more our vitamin D will increase, but that is not true.
We can absorb vitamins from the sun only for a particular time. Early morning sun rays are beneficial for this. In such a situation, if you stay in the sun for a long time, you may face many problems, such as sunburn and even skin cancer.
Can the size of skin pores be increased or decreased?
Yes, the size of our skin pores can be big or small, because different skin factors are responsible for this. How dry is your skin, how dehydrated it is, what is your collagen production, how much is your oil production, etc. So these are some skin factors that determine the size of your skin pores.
