What are the parameters covered? 

The following are the important tests that are covered in the dull and lifeless skin panel to know the deficiency which cause dull skin.

Vitamin E

The level of vitamin E in the plasma or serum after a 12 to 14 hour fast indicates the individual’s reserve status. the concentrations of vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) in your serum depend on the liver, which stores the nutrient after it has been absorbed by the small intestine.

The blood test requires overnight fasting.The reference range of vitamin E in adults is 5.5-17 µg/ml. In children, it is 3-18.4 µg/ml.

Serum Iron (Total Iron) 

Total Iron test screen for iron deficiency. A serum iron test measures how much iron is in your serum. Serum is the liquid left after the removal of red blood cells and clotting factors from your blood.

Serum iron, Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) and Transferrin saturation are usually ordered together.

Serum ferritin 

A ferritin test is used to evaluate a person’s current iron stores.it is also measured by a simple blood test.Normal ferritin ranges are: 24 to 336 nanograms per millilitre in men. 11 to 307 nanograms per millilitre in women.

Folic acid 

A folic acid or  vitamin B9 test measures the amount of folic acid in the blood.The normal reference range of folic acid in the blood is between 2.7 and 17.0 nanograms per ml.

Excessive folic acid levels usually aren’t problematic, but they may indicate a deficiency of vitamin B-12. Your body needs vitamin B-12 to use folic acid properly, so if vitamin B-12 levels are low, folic acid remains unused.

Vitamin B-12 

Your body doesn’t naturally produce vitamin B-12. It comes from animal products like meat, fish and dairy. People who are at risk for vitamin B-12 deficiency are mostly  strict vegetarians, vegans, older adults and diabetics.

Some people with celiac disease or gastric surgery are also deficient in vitamin B12 due to malabsorption. A vitamin B-12 test is a simple blood test which require you to fast for 6-8 hours.

Liver function test 

Liver stores vitamins and minerals. if liver does not function properly, it may cause deficiency diseases. The liver function test is a blood test done to measure specific enzymes and proteins in your blood. Test showing either higher or lower-than-normal levels of these proteins or enzymes can indicate a problem with your liver.

What is dull or lifeless skin?

Dull skin is basically a skin that has lost its liveliness and brightness. Skin which is dry and rough has age spots or uneven tan is identified as dull skin. Dull skin will make you look tired and old.

Dull skin is typically a result of poor blood circulation and dehydration. Anything that deprives your skin of oxygen and nutrients will lead to poor skin. Many factors come into play to cause dull skin conditions. These factors can be Environmental factors, Hereditary factors, Psychological factors, and Biological factors. The following are some of the causes of dull skin

Dull and lifeless skin test helps to find the deficiency that cause dull and lifeless skin.
Know the reasons for dull skin by taking your Dull and Lifeless Skin Test.

Environmental factors:

Air pollution

Pollution is problematic for your lungs as well as your skin.

  • Dust can clog pores and cause the growth of bacteria which in turn leads to acne.
  • Chemical pollutants can affect the skin’s natural protection and repair system causing premature aging. Harmful chemicals can breakdown the skin’s natural oils that hold moisture of the skin and keep it supple.

Sun exposure 

The ultraviolet(UV) rays of the skin are the major cause of

  • Our skin has a natural guard against harmful UV rays called melanin. By raising the amount of melanin (dark pigment) in the skin, it is better able to absorb UV radiation and protect the skin from DNA damage. but overexposure to the sun can cause hyperpigmentation and uneven tone.
  • Texture changes. Sun exposure causes wrinkles and thickening of the skin. It also results in freckles.
  • Moles are small black or red-colored raised spots caused by sun exposure.
  • Skin cancer. Spending long hours in peak sunlight can lead to skin cancer.

Cold and wind

The cold and windy conditions of winters often result in itchy, dry skin. cold winds steal away the moisture of your skin leaving cracked and flaky skin.

Hereditary factors

Genes are made up of DNA that tells the cells how to make proteins. The proteins, in turn, affects the structure and function of the body. Genes have a significant influence on the skin because the skin is made up of so many proteins.

For example, collagen is a protein that forms the basic structure of your skin. Melanin which gives color to your skin is also protein. Hence, hereditary plays an important role in determining the complexion and texture of your skin.

Psychological and lifestyle factors:

Stress

Stress can show up on your skin, nails, and hair in a way that you won’t like. Following are the signs of stress taking a toll on your skin:

Dark circles and under-eye bags. Stress can keep you from getting enough beauty sleep.

Acne Stress causes your body to produce cortisol and other hormones, which initiates sebaceous glands to produce more oil. Oily skin is prone to acne and other skin problems.

Stress can aggravate skin problems like eczema, psoriasis, and rosacea.  It can also trigger hives, itchiness and fever blisters.

Smoking and Drinking Alcohol

Nicotine causes narrowing of the blood vessels that can limit oxygen-rich blood flow to the very small vessels in the face or other parts of the body. Thus, wounds take longer to heal and you’ll have scars that are bigger and redder than non-smokers. Cigarette smoke contains carbon monoxide, which displaces the oxygen in your skin leaving skin dry and discolored. Cigarette smoking also depletes many essential nutrients, including vitamin C, which helps protect and repair skin damage.

 Alcohol has a diuretic effect, which puts you at greater risk of dehydration. When you are dehydrated, less water is available to moisturize your skin, leading to skin that appears rough, flaky and is more prone itching. Alcohol can also flare-up skin conditions like rosacea and psoriasis. When you drink in large quantities spider veins appear at your skin surface.

Unhealthy Eating

Eating junk food and food high in sugars damage your skin. Sugar in your bloodstream attaches to proteins to form harmful molecules called advanced glycation end products. This glycation end-product damages collagen and elastin proteins.

Once damaged, collagen and elastin become dry and brittle, leading to wrinkles and sagging of skin. Also, unhealthy and junk food are low in essential vitamins and minerals.

Biological factor

Due to some allergies or auto-immune diseases, your stomach is not able to absorb nutrients from the food properly. Hence the body gets deficient in the nutrients causing various deficiency diseases. Lack of intake or absorption of some vitamins also reflects on your skin. These nutrients are:

Vitamin E

The primary function of Vitamin E is as an antioxidant. Antioxidants are substances that protect our body from the damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals. Vitamin E blocks free radicals from the body, which play a large part in the aging process.

By fighting off free radicals, you can dodge wrinkles and keep the skin youthful-looking.Because the digestive system requires fat to absorb vitamin E, people with fat-malabsorption disorders are prone to become this vitamin deficient than people without such disorders.

Iron and Ferritin

Iron is an essential mineral required by your body. Your body requires iron to make hemoglobin which is an essential part of blood cells. When Iron levels are depleted your skin begins to lose its normal color and go pale.

Another dermatological effect of Iron deficient is Pruritus. You get extremely itchy skin reddening of the affected area. Reversing the iron deficiency helps reduce the itchiness.

Folic Acid

Folic acid, with other important antioxidants, helps in eliminating toxins from the body, which can reduce acne on the face. The proper amount of folic acid in our body helps in keeping our skin moisturized and healthy.

It also gives the skin a natural glow. It helps in reducing the signs of skin aging. Thus, folic acid helps in keeping you look young.

Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that keeps your nervous system healthy. It helps in the production of DNA and RNA of the cells. It is responsible for the smooth functioning of several critical body processes.

Vitamin B12 is also important for cell reproduction and constant renewal of the skin. Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause acne, sensitivity to sunlight,  dryness, cracked lips, wrinkles and an uneven complexion.
