Dermatitis

Features

Dermatitis is a mostly chronic, eczemic skin condition and one of the most common skin diseases. Almost everyone suffers from it at least once in their life. They are chronic, inflammatory, mostly itchy, non-contagious skin diseases that occur in various forms.

Recommendation

Dermatosis

Features

Dermatoses are chronic eczema, i.e. forced inflammation of the upper layers of the skin (epidermis and dermis). There are many different types of dermatoses, which are usually reddened and can be extremely itchy. The formation of weeping blisters is also characteristic.

If eczema persists over a longer period of time, the skin can dry out severely and form scales. The skin altered by the dermatosis loses its barrier function, which results in increased water loss. The skin becomes brittle and cracked.

Recommendation

Thick hair

Features

Thick hair has a diameter greater than 0.09 mm. Characteristic here is excessive hair volume, which quickly leads to an uncontrollable and above all non-reproducible hairstyle appearance. This is due to the above-average plasticity of the hair, which is difficult to control with simple styling strokes, especially after sleeping, for example. As a result, the hair must be conditioned towards a "softer" plasticity.

Recommendation

Thin hair

Features

In fine hair, the cuticle layer has a significantly higher proportion of the mass between the cuticle layer and the fiber stem than in normal or even thick hair.

In the case of fine hair, this structural part of the cuticle is decisive for the properties of the hair. Damage to the cuticle leads to hair that appears more damaged overall. This is because the cuticle is the most "vulnerable" part of the hair structure. Fine hair is therefore more sensitive than normal or thick hair and is significantly less plastic, as the plastic-forming fiber stem makes up less of the hair.

Recommendation

Pustule

Features

Pustules - also known as pustules, pimples or blisters - are small cavities on the surface of the skin that are filled with pus and are usually painful to the touch. They are red in color, with the top of the blisters often being white.

Recommendation

Eczema

Features

Eczema is one of the most common skin diseases. Almost everyone suffers from it at least once in their life. The term eczema is a collective term for inflammatory, mostly itchy, non-contagious skin diseases that occur in various forms.

Common forms of eczema are in particular:
- Dermatitis,
- dermatosis,
- itchy lichen.

Recommendation

Eczema on the scalp

Features

Eczema is a collective term for inflammatory, mostly itchy, non-infectious skin diseases that occur in various forms. In many cases, these can also occur on the scalp. Here, however, they are often not immediately obvious.

Recommendation

Erosion

Features

Erosions are areas of exposed skin caused by partial or complete loss of the epidermis. Erosions can be traumatic or occur in numerous inflammatory or infectious skin diseases.

Recommendation

Excoriation

Features

An excoriation is an extensive defect in the skin that can extend into the stratum papillare of the dermis. This opens up individual capillary loops, resulting in punctiform bleeding. An excoriation usually heals without scarring.

Recommendation

Fine hair

Features

An average human hair is about 0.05 to 0.08 mm thick. Fine or thin hair is already spoken of when there is a diameter of 0.03 to 0.07 mm.

Typical, Central European hair is consequently fine-normal in terms of its thickness.

In fine hair, the cuticle has a significantly higher proportion of the mass between the cuticle and the fiber stem than in normal or even thick hair. In fine hair, this structural proportion of the cuticle is decisive for the properties of the hair.
