 What is acne?

Acne is a skin condition that can affect anyone at any age, but it most commonly affects teenagers. It has symptoms similar to those of other diseases, such as blackheads, whiteheads, papules, pustules, nodules, cysts, and milia. Constant breakouts are painful, leave scars, and have a negative impact on confidence.

Acne occurs when the pores of the skin become clogged by oil, bacteria, dead skin cells, and dirt. When this happens, one may get a pimple. Bacteria can cause inflammation and infection, which can lead to more severe acne.

What are the reasons for getting acne?

There are many reasons for getting acne, including:

1. Hormonal imbalance is the main reason for acne. Teenage people have a high level of male hormones called testosterone. These hormones produce too much oil. The oil glands are connected to hair follicles on the chest, neck, face, and back. That may cause acne and breakouts.

2. An improper diet is also the reason for getting acne. When someone has an unhealthy lifestyle and does not take proper vitamins and nutrients in their diet, pimples may occur.

3. Excess sun exposure can also lead to acne. UV rays can damage the skin and make it tan, also.

4. Mental, emotional, and physical stress can also produce acne.

5. Smoking and drinking alcohol.

6. Dairy products.

7. Wrong skin care regime.

8. Wrong cosmetic products.

9. Steroids and bodybuilding proteins.

What are treatments for acne?

Here are some clinical treatments for acne:

• Topical serums and creams: Sometimes mild acne can be treated by topical creams. Benzoyl peroxide targets surface bacteria, which aggravate acne. It is available in face wash and gel. Salicylic acid removes the dead skin cells to prevent the hair follicles from clogging. It is available in the form of cleanser and lotion. Many creams and serums are available in the market that help to prevent acne.
  
  

• Oral medication: Oral acne medications like vitamins, nutrients, antibiotics, contraceptives, and hormone therapy can clear the acne.
  
  

• Microdermabrasion: This treatment polishes the skin and gives it a fresh appearance to the skin. This treatment helps to stimulate the skin and help to increase collagen production. Diamond tipped microdermabrasion and vacuum suction technology combined with topical ingredients help to remove acne and breakouts. This treatment is best for acne, fine lines, dull skin, wrinkles, etc.
  
  

• Chemical peels: Chemical peels are the best to treat acne and acne scars. It is an excellent treatment for fine lines, wrinkles, dull skin, uneven skin tone, pigmentation, age spots, and dark spots. A chemical peel is a skin-resurfacing treatment that uses acids to remove the top damaged skin and exposes the underlying skin, which is not as damaged. This method is effective for mild acne scarring. For instance, in determining the severity of acne, the doctor can use salicylic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, deep-peel, mid-depth peel, or superficial peels.
  
  

• Carbon laser peel: Carbon has purifying properties that help to reduce acne and many other skin conditions like scars, uneven skin tone, open pores, and signs of aging. This is the anti-acne treatment. Carbon is applied on the face, then left for a few minutes, then bust the carbon with the help of the laser. This is the safest and most effective treatment for reducing acne.
  
  

• Light therapy: LED lights are directed deep into skin cells to help improve internal functions, photo-stimulate dermal blood flow, and induce faster healing, pain reduction, acne reduction, and other benefits. LED Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment. It is not the same as the treatment provided in parlors.

Home remedies that help in reducing acne at home:

1. Using apple cider vinegar diluted with water can help to reduce acne and scars. Mix one spoon of vinegar and three spoons of water well and apply with cotton balls daily on the clean face. 

2. To make a paste, combine two tablespoons of honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon. Apply the mask to your face after cleansing, leaving it on for 10 to 15 minutes. Then, rinse the mask thoroughly and pat your face dry.

3. Combine one part tea tree oil with nine parts water, and apply the mixture to the affected areas with a cotton swab. If desired, apply moisturizer. As needed, repeat this process 1 to 2 times per day.

4. Lemon reduces the likelihood of developing acne scars. It works as a disinfectant (kills bacteria), exfoliant (removes dead skin), skin lightener, and prevents the formation of new pimples. One can squeeze some lemon and apply the resulting lemon juice to the face with cotton. Dab some lemon juice on the face and then wash it with cold water.

If these remedies do not help, one should consult with a dermatologist at Skin Decor, the best skin clinic in Dwarka; they offer a variety of acne and acne scar treatment options.
