[D714]Dry Skin Behind Ears
by John Russell, Joh
In order for any dry skin care anti aging lotion to actually improve a dry skin condition for more than a few minutes, the lotion must get below the second major layer of skin. Independent lab testing shows shielding lotions are the most effective anti-aging skin care products.

Typically, the only moisture that is ever really going to reach deep enough in sufficient quantities to resolve a dry skin problem over the long-term, is the skin's own natural moisture.

So the solution is to assist your skin in producing more natural moisture and not allow it to be lost. Until now, all that could be done to alleviate a dry skin condition is apply conventional lotions like artificial moisture. These products were designed to just temporarily fix dry skin, placing artificial moisture over the top layer of skin.

A dry skin care anti aging lotion, which is termed a shield lotion, is the key to actually improving dry skin.

A major factor to consider is that many households and workplace chemicals, even cosmetics and fragrances, are absorbed directly into the skin, which can cause skin disorders or just plain cracked dry skin. When cooking, cleaning, or being active in activities from gardening to painting, skiing to fishing, or any exposure to harsh weather, you are further drying and irritating your skin. A dry skin care anti aging lotion, which provides a shielding lotion protection layer, is the product that is effective with dry skin. A shielding lotion will rapidly absorb into and bonds with the outer layer of skin, which creates a protective layer while retaining the natural moisture from within. This makes it the perfect anti-aging skin care product.

An effective shielding lotion will not wash off, but comes off naturally with exfoliated skin cells and just needs to be reapplied every 4 hours. In summary, taking proper care of your skin can do more to enhance your appearance than all the lotions and creams that can be applied to cover-up unhealthy skin. The summer months pose unique challenges, constantly switching between dry indoor air and summer heat outdoors removes moisture from the skin. While creams and lotions replace some of the lost moisture, it is far better to take steps to prevent moisture loss in the first place. In the event a dry skin problem is present, a dry skin care anti aging lotion, termed a shielding lotion, is the fix.

Men, like women, are equally concerned as they age about their sagging neck or, unflattering called, the neck waddle or turkey neck. This is usually more important to men than other facial aging changes such as occurs around the eyes. As men often wear shirts and ties, this problem can even become magnified with any type of constrictive wear around the neck, causing a bunching up of low hanging neck skin and a resultant overhang.For these reasons, men may seek a facelift (necklift) procedure to improve these neck skin issues. For men the improvement in the neck does not have to be dramatic but significant. Dramatic neck and jowl changes in men after a facelift can often make them look peculiar.

One of the most important outcomes of a facelift, and one I would say is how most facelifts are ultimately judged by non-plastic surgeons, is that of the scarring around the ears.The scars should be nearly imperceptable, well hidden in the crevices and grooves of the ear and into the hairline. In men, however, this is much more of a challenge. Unlike women, men have beard skin that poses real issues about scar placement and putting beard skin into areas that have not had hair before. This may create new and undesired shaving challenges after surgery.

The first beard area of concern with a facelift is the tragus. The tragus is that bump in front of the ear canal that one never notices.....unless you put beard skin on it. For this reason, the incision in men is usually placed at the junction of the beard and non-hair bearing skin in front of the ear. This scar is not well camouflaged as in women where the incision dips into the ear behind the tragus and then sneaks out around the earlobe. While this scar in males usually does heal well, and that area is sort of a natural crease, it is somewhat noticeable in the short-term with the scar redness. The other option is to use the typical incisional approach for females and either trim off the hair bulbs underneath the skin prior to closure or do that in a later procedure after it is healed. Laser hair treatment is an option also and can be done within 4 to 6 weeks after a facelift. Which approach is best? I prefer to keep the hair some distance away from the tragus and the ear. It is unnatural to have the beard line right up against the ear and the need to try and remove hair off the tragus later is not always easy or successful.

The other beard skin area of concern is behind the ear. With a facelift, beard skin gets moved up and behind the ear. This skin displacement creates the need to now shave behind the earlobe area in back of the ear. This is certainly not a devastating aesthetic consequence of the procedure and, with some presurgical education, is easily managed by most men. There is no real way to modify the procedure to avoid this problem. Laser hair treatments are worth doing in this area, even if it takes a few of them spaced four to six weeks apart to significantly reduce hair growth.
