Question 1

are there any health benefits of lime juice on skin?

Accepted Answer

None: Lime juice on the skin might feel temporarily good but there are no positive benefits to skin health or the health of your body with this application.

Question 2

is a peel a good idea for wrinkles at the age of 19? are there any long term benefits and will the wrinkles dissappear?

Accepted Answer

Wrinkle treatment: I am not sure what kind of wrinkles a 19 year old would get. Are they smile lines? The 11's?   Generally, someone so young would not have the lines associated with "aging " skin. However, these lines may be the result of natural facial movement.  Good skin care is important at any age.  There may be some light peels that are appropriate for your skin type. I would recommend you see an aesthetician.

Question 3

is many peels required to maintain the result ? only 19 and have lots of wrinkles under eyes about 10 per eye? is one peel enough? long term benefits?

Accepted Answer

Depends on skin type: If your skin is very fair, you are a candidate for more aggressive treatments like fractionated co2 laser under your eyes. I find this to be a very useful device in the management of crepey under eye skin. One treatment is usually sufficient.  There are also new radiofrequency skin tightening devices you may benefit from.  Be sure you are using a good moisturizer under your eyes as well.

Question 4

why do your cuticles peel?

Accepted Answer

Dry: Dryness of dying skin cells in that area.

Question 5

why do my gums peel?

Accepted Answer

Gums peel?: If you mean, why do your gums pull away from your teeth, then you have an infection in your gums called periodontal disease. This will eventually lead to loss of 
bone around your teeth and then loss of your teeth.
See your dentist for an examination, diagnosis and treatment.

Question 6

when to peel a scab off?

Accepted Answer

For best results: Allow the skin to heal and the scab will come off by itself.

Question 7

why does skin peel in water?

Accepted Answer

Osmosis: If in the water too long, the protective oils are lost and free water enters the skin cells, causing them to burst.

Question 8

what causes gum tissue to peel?

Accepted Answer

Gum lesions?: Depending on the clinical picture, gums can "peel" or slough off due to gum disease, trauma, viral, bacteria or other miscellaneous causes. You would need to see a laser periodontist for a complete evaluation. The nd/yag laser can sometimes help in a big way in these situations. www.drgums.com.

Question 9

how do you stop skin from peeling?

Accepted Answer

Why peeling?: Need to figure out why it is peeling in the first place.  May want to consult a dermatologist on this before spending tons of cash on stuff that wont work, because it wont be addressing what is actually wrong.  Could be as simple as keeping it moist with gentle moisturizer, to as complex as some sort of dermatitis or infectious process that would need medical intervention.

Question 10
