雞眼和尋常疣的區別

雞眼和尋常疣都是我們生活中常見的疾病，但是由於雞眼和尋常疣有相似之處，所以很多患者誤把尋常疣當做雞眼來治療，導致尋常疣的病情加重，使疣體增多增大。因此對於雞眼和尋常疣的區別，患者一定要有所認識了解，這樣才能對症下藥治療。

雞眼和尋常疣的分別如下：

1、雞眼
雞眼是種物理性皮膚病，是由於長期摩擦和壓迫引起的皮膚角質增生性損害。常發生於受壓或著力部位，如腳掌的前中部、尾趾外側或拇趾內側緣，偶見於趾背。雞眼大小較常如豌豆，表面光滑或略隆起，界限清楚呈黃色，中心有倒圓錐狀的角質栓嵌入真皮層，壓迫神經末梢，故行走、站立時引起疼痛。

2、尋常疣
尋常疣是由人類乳頭瘤病毒所引起的表皮腫瘤，中醫稱「千日瘡」，俗稱「刺瘊」、「瘊子」等。尋常疣初起時小如粟米粒，漸至大若黃豆，突出皮表，色如灰白或污黃，表面粗糙，角質化過度，堅硬。一般無自覺症狀，若受到擠壓迫局部有疼痛感，或碰撞、摩擦時易於出血。好發部位以手背、指背、頭面以及頸項、背部等等…..

LED Soak Off Gel甲無疑是相當吸引，不用特別打理又可以維持至少兩星期的時間，深受不少女生歡迎。但隨住指甲生長，甲飾處於一個尷尬期，便要回美甲店拆卸，卻是一件惱人的事。

很多人以為自行用手撕掉Gel甲是正常不過的事，但這是大忌中的大忌！因為這樣不但會撕下Gel甲油，更很容易撕掉本身指甲的表層，從而令指甲甲面愈來愈脆弱，容易崩裂。如難以抽時間由專業美甲師代勞，唯有自行包辦，就要跟著以下步驟來做，避免損壞指甲。

簡易卸甲三小步:

1. 先使用指甲挫磨指甲表面的Top Coat，能夠讓後續卸甲液更好滲進甲內。
2. 之後再準備卸甲液，將化妝棉浸濕後，放在指甲表面上，化妝棉需完全覆蓋整塊指甲，及後再用鋁箔紙將十隻手指包起，等待15分鐘。
3. 最後除去錫紙，掃走餘下的甲油便大功告成！值得留意是，卸甲後的指甲會特別脆弱，所以記緊塗抹指甲滋養油和拍指甲蛋白油，使指甲變得更堅硬。

簡易保養Soak Off Gel甲的壽命:

如果沒有足夠油分就會脫落。若指甲邊緣有足夠滋潤度，能延長LED Soak Off Gel甲的壽命。甲緣護理油可將油分往指甲內推進，保持十指滋潤，避免指邊皮膚乾燥，死皮及倒刺問題出現，從而導致LED Soak Off Gel甲脫落。

大家齊來看看自己有沒有犯錯~

LED soak off gel is very popular because of its’ attractiveness and free of maintenance. It usually can hold up to two weeks until the real nails are growing and reviewing underneath.   Some people may skip going to the salon. 

Instead they will attempt to pull the gel off by themselves without realizing that this could be a big mistake.  In fact, brutally ripping off soak-off gel can damage the top layer of the nail plate, making the nail fragile and brittle.

If visiting the nail technician is a problem, please follow the DIY guide for removing soak off gel below to avoid damaging yOur real nails.

Three easy steps to remove LED soak off gel:

1. First thin down the gel layer with a nail file.  This helps  the gel removing liquid to work more effectively.
2. Saturate cosmetic cotton with the removing liquid.  Lay them on the nails, making sure that they cover well.  Wrap all the fingertips up witH aluminum foil’s. Wait for 15 minutes.
3. Remove the Foils and gently brush away the gel. At this moment the nails are quite fragile.  You may want to apply some cuticle oil and protein oil to strengthen them.

Simple maintenance for your soak off gel:

The gel will come off if there is not enough oil. It is always smart to apply some nail oil at the edge of the soak-off gel.  The oil will not only soak in through the sides of the gel, the cuticle will also be moisturized.  When Dead skin and peeling cuticles are avoided, the soak off gel will stay on for much longer.

Con’on! It is time to check whether you have made ny of those mistakes!
