Rivals of the skin 

The beauty of the skin gets deteriorated due to some of these reasons mentioned beneath – 

1- Removal of the uterus

The uterus creates the sheen of the skin. If it is removed just the opposite happens. Therefore it is very important to consult several specialists before removing it.
