Understanding Asian & Ethnic Skin
Asian skin is unique, with a thicker epidermis, larger melanin cells, and more sebaceous glands compared to Caucasian skin. These differences make it more prone to scarring, hyperpigmentation, and sun darkening.
-
Thicker epidermis & melanin → hyperpigmentation
-
Larger sebaceous glands → more acne & oil buildup
-
More melanocytes → quicker darkening
