Help me figure this out..

less skin renewal = skin aging

normal skin renewal = healthy skin

accelerated skin renewal = EC


Accutane = retinol aka Vitamin A = increased skin cell renewal

Psoriasis = increases the rate at which your skin renews itself


Accutane = Psoriasis ... right?

"Psoriasis: Normal skin cells mature and replace dead skin every 28-30 days. Psoriasis causes skin cells to mature in less than a week. Because the body can't shed old skin as rapidly as new cells are rising to the surface, raised patches of dead skin develop on the arms, back, chest, elbows, legs, nails, folds between the buttocks, and scalp."

HOW COME ACCUTANE IS USED AS A TREATMENT FOR PSORIASIS THEN??


I know this isn't directly related to EC but it is bugging me, that i'm missing something Tweet
