Here with my friend’s poodle, Noodles! Parang pareho kami ng hair type? 😁

I have wavy to curly hair, just like Noods. My hair type is 2C-3A, but would you believe that I once had straight hair?

As a child, my hair was smooth and silky. But as I grew older, it started to develop crimps—which frustrated me at the time. And like many young women, I turned to hair rebonding (a.k.a. hair “murder”) to achieve that sleek, straight look 🧹😂😭

But why is some hair straight, wavy, or curly? Short answer, your hair type is written in your follicles and your genes. Swipe to learn more about it ➡️

Can you SPOT the difference? 👀

A 65-year old patient came to my clinic five months ago, concerned about two dark spots on her face that were gradually enlarging. After excision, the biopsy revealed that the lesions were benign (hindi cancer 🙏🏽). The patient lives abroad and recently returned home, at nagulat ako sa improvement 😳 I was genuinely surprised by how well the wounds have healed. Nung tinanggal ko kasi yung mga tahi one week after the surgery, may redness and mild skin irregularities pa. While I understand that wounds take years to fully heal, the progress in such a short period was remarkable.

FYI, this is the typical healing process:
1️⃣ Hemostasis
2️⃣ Inflammatory Phase
3️⃣ Proliferative Phase
4️⃣ Remodeling Phase

In general, visible healing is relatively quick, but complete tissue regeneration and scar remodeling can take anywhere from 6 months to 1 year. Kahit sarado na yung surgical wound, continuous pa rin ang pag-aayos ng katawan natin dun. Scar tissue may continue to evolve and improve in appearance for up to 2 years, or longer.

Your healing journey can be influenced by factors like ✨age, ✨nutrition, ✨overall health, and ✨how well you care for the wound, so it's important to keep those in mind as you recover.
