Are Demodex mites present on our faces?

There are 3 commonly used methods for Demodex mite examination: Transparent adhesive tape pasting method Use transparent adhesive tape to paste it on the nose, nasal folds, forehead, cheeks and chin of the face before going to bed at night, and remove it and paste it on a glass slide for microscopic examination in the morning. The detection rate is related to the stickiness of the adhesive tape, the part, area and time of pasting.

Squeeze and scrape smear method Usually use an acne compressor to scrape, or squeeze by hand, or scrape the inspected part with equipment such as the back end of the dipping pen tip**, place the scraped material on a glass slide, add 1 drop of glycerin, spread it out, and add a coverslip for microscopic examination. Extrusion bonding method: After attaching transparent tape to the inspection area, squeeze the adhesive tape with your thumb and remove the tape for microscopic inspection. This method has a high detection rate.

The body of the Demodex follicle mite is elongated and worm-like, with only a few legs that are not completely degenerate.

People with oily** and heavy makeup who don't do deep cleaning tend to breed this mite on a large scale, but most adults have some follicular Demodex mites to a greater or lesser extent. When these mites accumulate in a single hair follicle on a large scale, they are prone to inflammation and infection.

These mites live head-down in hair follicles and depend on secretions and dander for survival. In the picture below, you can see three hair follicle Demodex mites crowded into one hair follicle, and you can also see the hair shaft, if too many mites gather in one hair follicle, it is easy to cause eyelashes or something to fall out. Female mites produce up to 25 eggs in a single hair follicle and the cycle from egg to sexual maturity is only about 14-18 days.

The phallus of this male mite is located between the 2nd pair of feet on the dorsal surface of the foot, and the genital orifice of the female mite is between the 4th pair of feet on the ventral surface.

It's a mite. Mites belong to a class of tiny animals of the subclass Arachnids of the phylum Arthropoda, and the body size is generally about millimeters, some are as small as millimeters, and most species are less than 1 millimeter. Mites and spiders belong to the same class of arachnids, adults have 4 pairs of legs, a pair of tentacles, no wings and antennae, and the body structure is different from that of insects.

The body of the worm is divided into a jaw body and a body, the jaw body is composed of mouthparts and a jaw base, and the body is divided into a foot body and a terminal body. Mites have a lot of hairs on their bodies and feet, some of which are very long. There are mouthparts at the front end, and they have a variety of eating habits, such as dandruff.

The first thing to know about external treatment is that there is no fast-acting drug for mites. Method 1: Mite removal soap (such as sulfur soap).

It is available in large and small supermarkets and small shopsLoading mites washes the affected area once or twice a day with mite removal soap, which has a miraculous effect on mite bites. The first time you use it, you will feel the pain of tightness, and even some molt after use, which is a normal reaction.

If you still have a strong feeling for the third time, please discontinue it. Precautions: Suitable for oiliness**.

At the same time, oily ** can still be prevented by washing with mite removal soap once or twice a week after **; Neutral** use with caution; Dry ** contraindicated or as directed by a doctor. Precautions: Do not use for a long time.

It is recommended to stop using it for a period of time after a maximum of 2 weeks of continuous use. Precautions: The area where acne is often affected can be massaged more for better results.

Method 2: Soak in concentrated salt water. Apply a cotton swab dipped in concentrated salt water to the affected area several times a day.

The principle is that the mites encounter concentrated salt water and die of lack of water in the cell fluid. The advantage is that the method is simple, no ***, and it is suitable for all kinds of people. The disadvantage is that the effect is slow, and the mites need to wait for their degradation after natural death.
