How does the check-up skin?

The check-up includes history, the practice inspection and palpatoria and some measurements and skin test (temperature, sebometria, corneometria, pH meter, test sensitivity, dermografismo). The history concerns the general hygiene of life, any skin diseases el'assunzione drugs, the inconvenience past and present on the skin, as it reacts to weather (particularly in the sun) and mainly cosmetic personal habits (cleaning, protection and fotoprotezione). The inspection skin you run to the naked eye and with the help of a magnifying glass, with sunlight, cold (neon) and ultraviolet. The inspection "on demand" or magnifying glass, under natural light and cold light, assess the color of the skin and the possible presence of primary lesions. The inspection district, to the face, looks at the color, brightness and the possible presence of imperfections, for example stains (ipermelaniche discolouration or ipomelaniche), skin wrinkles and relaxation, couperose, erythro, peeling, scarring acneiche. The observation with ultraviolet light (type-Wood) helps detect the presence of comedoni (yellow or orange depending on the degree of oxidation of sebum), of hyperpigmentation not demonstrated to the naked eye, such as scales of silver foil. The tactile exploration permits an assessment of the smoothness, the greasiness, the graininess, the roughness, thickness, elasticity (making a slight twist on a skin fold to control the speed of recovery morphological), the extensibility ( linked to the quality of collagen).
The data obtained allow the classification of phototype which is linked to the response of the skin sun exposure. Regardless of the color of hair or eyes are considered: the extent of the formation of the first efelidi sun, the early appearance of erythema and frequency of its occurrence at each exposure, and the time of appearance and quality dell'abbronzatura. Complete the process measurements and some diagnostic tests.
