Suffers of Acne can feel a little picked on by the universe especially when they suffer a lot more Acne issues than friends around them. Acne has been around since the dawn of mankind but there is now a far greater understanding of the causes and effects, especially with various breakthroughs in the last 10 to 15 years.

In order to understand why you are suffering where other aren’t you need to understand the underlying cause of Acne.  But first you need to be assured of one very important myth about Acne. It is not natively caused by dirtiness and bad hygiene. They can worsen the problem but there is far more at play in our bodies than that.

Hormonal Change – This is a major one and the big reason why most Acne occurs in the teenage years. High levels of hormones cause. Our skin produces chemicals that are designed to protect our skin. When hormonal levels are high this chemical production goes into overdrive (we don’t really know why) and cause but an abundance of skin oils but also irritation of hair follicles and skin cells.  Overproduction can actually result in blocked pores causing white heads and black heads to form depending on whether or not dirt is present in the resulting pus caught in the pore.

Skin Type – Your skin’s response is second main contributing factor to the development of acne. If you skin is capable of dealing with the increased skin chemicals caused by the hormonal supercharge then low level acne or if you are very lucky no acne will result. This is where skin care becomes very important. It won’t help the underlying problem but will certainly help you manage it.

Skin Care – Keeping your skin clean and free of dirt will help reduce the likelihood of black heads forming in irritated pores. The right skin care products can also reduce the amount of skin chemicals present on the surface of your body. Too frequent though and your attempts to prevent or reduce acne can have the opposite effect as you will irritate your skin more than ever and provide the perfect forming ground for Acne and Pimples. Moderation is the key. Read more… »

What is this horrible stuff?Acne is an inflammation of the sebaceous glands in the skin. It occurs on the face, neck, upper chest and back and even the genitals. Sebum (an oily substance produced by glands in the skin) builds up, especially in oily zones and can block pores causing whiteheads and blackheads. These can become infected when bacteria gets in and become inflamed and pus-filled, resulting in pimples and in extreme cases large painful acne cysts.

Doctors may use other types of procedures in addition to drug therapy to treat patients with acne. For example, the doctor may remove the patient’s comedones during office visits. Sometimes the doctor will inject corticosteroids directly into lesions to help reduce the size and pain of inflamed cysts and nodules. Early treatment is the best way to prevent acne scars. Once scarring has occurred, the doctor may suggest a medical or surgical procedure to help reduce the scars. A superficial laser may be used to treat irregular scars. Dermabrasion (or microdermabrasion), which is a form of “sanding down” scars, is sometimes used. Another treatment option for deep scars caused by cystic acne is the transfer of fat from another part of the body to the scar. A doctor may also inject a synthetic filling material under the scar to improve its appearance.

How Should People With Acne Care for Their Skin?

Clean Skin Gently

If you have acne, you should gently wash your face with a mild cleanser, once in the morning and once in the evening, as well as after heavy exercise. Wash your face from under the jaw to the hairline and be sure to thoroughly rinse your skin. Ask your doctor or another health professional for advice on the best type of cleanser to use.

Using strong soaps or rough scrub pads is not helpful and can actually make the problem worse. Astringents are not recommended unless the skin is very oily, and then they should be used only on oily spots. It is also important to shampoo your hair regularly. If you have oily hair, you may want to wash it every day.
