Redness on the cheeks

Some of our friends in our lives will have redness on the sides of their cheeks. After this happens, the skin on the face will become very sensitive. Using slightly irritating cosmetics will cause allergies. In fact, the redness on both sides of the cheeks is clinically called red blood streaks. Generally, this condition is caused by genetics and is not very harmful.

Although the harm of red blood streaks to human health is not obvious, if women often have redness on the sides of their cheeks, it will not only affect their appearance, but also have a certain impact on their daily skin care. So, why do the cheeks turn red?

1. Long-term local use of corticosteroids can cause capillary dilation, thinning and atrophy of the skin, and cause facial redness;

2. Living in high-altitude cold areas or suffering from frostbite, which results in obstructed blood circulation and stasis of blood vessel walls, causing red blood streaks on the face;

3. After cosmetic skin resurfacing, because skin resurfacing products mainly contain "benzoic acid", "benzoic acid" repeatedly stimulates the thin and delicate facial parts, exposing the unprotected dermis to the outside and receiving strong ultraviolet radiation;

4. After the stratum corneum is polished, the skin temporarily looks whiter, but because the surface layer that protects the skin is destroyed, the epidermis becomes thinner, and red blood cells are easy to seep out, resulting in facial redness;

5. Blood vessels are aging, fragile, and lack elasticity. Blood vessels contract slowly, and red blood cells easily leak out, causing facial redness.

Redness of the face is directly related to the body's blood circulation system. Wind, sun, and high temperature stimulation can damage the facial meridians, causing blood vessels to dilate and become ill. Or blood stasis can block the meridians, causing blood vessels to flow poorly, and blood stasis can block the skin, causing blood vessels to dilate. Poor blood circulation can make it difficult for toxins in the body to be excreted, which can also form red blood streaks. Poor blood circulation is also directly related to the body's lack of vitamins and trace elements. The lack of these substances directly causes the capillary walls to lack elasticity and cause expansion.

After knowing the cause of the redness and bloodshot on both sides of the cheeks, if you have this condition on your face, it is recommended that you be careful when using skin care products and avoid using skin care products containing alcohol, so as not to irritate the facial skin and make the redness on both sides of the cheeks more and more serious. You also need to be careful not to use too cold or too hot water to wash your face.
