Candidiasis

by Dr. Yiannis Neofytou

Candida is the strain of a fungus that causes skin infections. This common cause of fungal infections is favored by the presence of moisture on the skin and affects parts of the body with folds such as between the fingers, armpits, groin and buttocks. Symptoms vary depending on body position, but include the following:

Rash

Red or purple spots on the skin

A white substance like flakes over the affected areas

Scaly skin

Cracks in the skin

Erythema, which leads to redness

Appearance of white soft skin

Purulent blisters on the affected areas (pimples filled with pus)

Red and white lesions in the mouth, as in fungal stomatitis

The treatment for cutaneous candidiasis is usually simple. Your doctor may prescribe antifungal creams, ointments or lotions that are applied directly to the skin.

MESOPEN

Mesopen is an alternative form of mesotherapy. It helps the penetration of active substances, creating portals of entry into the skin barrier with the creation of controlled micronulls, thanks to its specially designed head (pen with 12 tiny titanium pins), without obvious skin injury. Through this mechanism of action, the penetration capacity of the active substances increases.
