  • Skin of Color
    Dermatology Patient Education Skin of Color There are a variety of skin, hair and nail conditions that are common in people with skin of color such as African Americans, Asians, Latinos and Native Americans. Your dermatologist can help diagnose and treat these skin conditions. SKIN CONDITIONS Postinflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) This condition results in patches of darker skin as your skin heals after a cut or scrape, or when acne, eczema or other rashes clear. PIH often fades, but the darker the PIH, the longer fading can take. Your dermatologist can help restore your skin’s color more quickly. Prescription medicines containing retinoids or hydroquinone (a bleaching ingredient), and procedures such as chemical peels and microdermabrasion may help. Your dermatologist will also encourage you to wear sunscreen to avoid further darkening of the skin due to ultraviolet (UV) light exposure and prevent further PIH from developing. Treatment products available over-the-counter rarely help and can make PIH more noticeable. Melasma This common condition causes brown to gray-brown patches, usually on the face. It occurs most often in women who have Latina, African, or Asian ancestry. Men can get melasma, too. Melasma can also appear on other parts of the body that get lots of sun exposure, such as the forearms and neck. Melasma may be associated with pregnancy, birth control pills or estrogen replacement therapy. It may also be hereditary. Melasma can fade on its own, but it often recurs. Your dermatologist can provide prescription topical treatment to help the condition fade. Procedures including chemical peels and microdermabrasion can also help.

  • Blue Jeans (Edited from Wikipedia)
    Blue Jeans (Edited from Wikipedia) SUMMARY Jeans are a type of pants, typically made from denim or dungaree cloth. Often the term "jeans" refers to a particular style of pants, called "blue jeans," which were invented by Jacob W. Davis in partnership with Levi Strauss & Co. in 1871 and patented by Jacob W. Davis and Levi Strauss on May 20, 1873. Prior to the Levi Strauss patented trousers, the term "blue jeans" had been long in use for various garments (including trousers, overalls, and coats), constructed from blue colored denim. Originally designed for cowboys and miners, jeans became popular in the 1950s among teenagers, especially members of the greaser subculture. Jeans were a common fashion item in the 1960s hippie subculture and they continued to be popular in the 1970s and 1980s youth subcultures of punk rock and heavy metal. Historic brands include Levi's, Lee, and Wrangler. Today, jeans remain a popular fashion item and come in various fits. HISTORY Research on the trade of jean fabric shows that it emerged in the cities of Genoa, Italy, and Nîmes, France. Gênes, the French word for Genoa, may be the origin of the word "jeans". In Nîmes, weavers tried to reproduce jean but instead developed a similar twill fabric that became known as denim, from de Nîmes, meaning "from Nîmes". Genoa’s jean was a fustian textile of "medium quality and of reasonable cost", very similar to cotton corduroy for which Genoa was famous, and was "used for work clothes in general". The Genoese navy equipped its sailors with jeans, as they needed a fabric which could be worn wet or dry.
