Lance Bleakley asked the question:


Acne is an inflammatory skin problem that is visualized by pimples on the face, chest and or back. The problem affects 20% of women. It occurs when the pores of the skin become blocked with oil, dead cells or bacteria.

The most common form of acne is Acne vulgaris. When the oil glands in the skin secretes excessive oils and combines with dead cells, then it blocks the hair follicles. The oil secretions under the skin pores that are clogged provide an environment where the acne causing bacteria multiples. Diet can affect acne. Red meats, sugar, white flour and dairy products can trigger the problem more.

Acne causes scars in the skin. This may lead to some psychological problems. However, there are effective treatment methods available to control acne. Natural skin care products help reducing acne to a great extent. Products containing Aloe Vera gel helps in rejuvenating the skin. It helps to detoxify the skin and thus reduces the inflammation that can produce acne.

In order to get rid of acne completely, the skin needs to be hydrated. Essential moisture in the skin prevents blocked pores. Drinking plenty of water and taking fresh fruits and vegetables can help preserve the moisture in the skin.

Many skin care products available in the market contain harsh chemicals that can aggravate the acne skin disorder. Skin care products containing natural fruit and vegetable extracts can help reducing the acne problems. These products provide crucial anti-oxidants and thereby defend the skin against acne.

It is advisable to cleanse your skin thoroughly with anti-microbial cleanser before applying any cream. It is important not to scrub the skin since scrubbing may increase the acne problem. In fact, skin gets irritated while scrubbing and it tends to produce more oil. This makes the acne condition worse. After drying the skin well with a clean towel, you can apply the cream.

There are some home remedies for acne. These wonderful and effective home remedies dates back to our ancestors. Some of these remedy should be very effective as they are as old as our ancestors. You can make a mixture of garlic paste, a pinch of sodium bicarbonate and the common toothpaste that is found in the supermarket.

You can also drink a lot of water as it would prevent most of your skin problems. On a simple note you can divide your body weight into half and drink at least that many ounces of water everyday. Brisk walking and good exercise regime would be of great help. Some form of active exercise like aerobics will bring in a lot of oxygen supply to your cells and keep your skin healthy and glowing.

There are however lot of myths relating to acne. One such very popular myth is that acne is caused by everyday dirt and surface oil present on the skin. So vigorous washing of the face to get rid of acne is a myth. Actually it would make things worse. Washing your face with harsh soaps can possibly lead to a further irritation of the tissue.

There is a special school of thought that believes that acne is caused due to stress. Well the research conducted on the same indicates that stress alone is not a factor that contributes to the development of acne but may aggravate the condition further.

Acne can linger for many years and may become worse. It should not be let run its course and should be properly treated once the source is clearly identified. There are special soaps called the acne soaps which can be used by all patients suffering from this problem. This soap is very powerful in removing the dirt, impurities and any other type of infection. There are variety of acne soaps that are available in the market. These soaps should be used according to the type of the skin and acne. Acne soaps can be used twice a day to eliminate acne.

Also available is a range of natural skin care products that re-hydrates the skin, thereby minimizing acne. A suitable product containing Collagen, Glycosaminoglycans, Elastin and powerful antioxidants has the added advantage of reducing acne scaring at the same time. This is achieved by plumping the skin, making it cleaner and healthier, while actively firming and tightening it. With a little research you can find a suitable effective natural skin care product to treat acne and it’s scaring.

CD Mohatta asked the question:


A cyst is a severe form of acne that is filled with bacteria, white blood cells and dead skin. Cysts can be very painful and extend inside the skin damaging the skin tissue. In nodulocystic acne, cysts and nodules form together. Some experts say that cysts are severely infected nodules and should be called as such. Treatment of cysts is a challenging task. Because cysts invariably form scars, they need to be treated as soon as possible and before they damage more skin cells.

Acne Treatment – stages of acne

Acne begins with plugged skin pores and develops in stages. In the first stage, acne usually begins in the form of whiteheads and blackheads (caused by plugged pores of the skin). Blackheads are called open comedones. Whiteheads are called closed comedones. The blackheads and whiteheads are the first stage of acne. The second stage is pimples or zits. They are medically known as papules and pustules. Pimples form when the acne gets inflamed. Some people suffer from third stage of serious acne, called as nodules and cysts. These are very large and deep lumps of acne. Skin develops scars if acne progresses to second and third stages.

Acne Treatment Regimen For Cysts-

In severe form of acne, you develop nodules and cysts that are all inflamed. Treating this acne takes more time and patience. Your doctor will treat you with combination therapy to control and cure the acne while trying to take care that minimum scars form. The treatment regimen for severe acne may include physical as well as oral and topical treatments. The options may include- isotretinoin, oral antibiotics, oral contraceptives for female patients, injecting corticosteroid in the lesions and surgical procedure.

Acne Treatment – Isotretinoin:

Isotretinoin is one of the most potent treatments for severe form of acne which has not responded well to other therapies. Isotretinoin is a retinoid which is a form of vitamin A. Isotretinoin helps treat all the four reasons of acne formation-

a. Excess oil,

b. Clogged pores,

c. Inflammation, and

d. The bacteria p.acnes.

The normal course of isotretinoin is one or two pills a day for up to twenty weeks. Your dermatologist will decide the dose. Don’t take Isotretinoin without medical supervision.

Side Effects Of Isotretinoin:

For women, it is very important to be in constant contact with their doctor because isotretinoin can cause damage to development of fetus. It cannot be given during pregnancy and before the treatment begins, all possibilities of pregnancy have to be eliminated. Talk to your doctor in detail about this and follow his/her instructions very strictly. The other side effects of isotretinoin may include joint pains, headaches, nausea, depression and others. You must not miss your appointment with your doctor while taking isotretinoin.

Acne Treatment -Oral Antibiotics-

Broad-spectrum antibiotics can reduce the bacteria P.acnes substantially. With reduction in the population of this bacterium, inflammation reduces. The antibiotic may include drugs such as – tetracycline, erythromycin, doxycycline, etc.

Acne Treatment -oral contraceptives for women-

Overactive sebaceous glands produce more sebum and are one of the main causes of acne. Some oral contraceptives can reduce the production of excessive sebum. These drugs should be taken only under medical supervision. Sometimes, you may have to consult the gynecologist, for which your doctor will advise you.

Acne Treatment -injecting corticosteroid

In this treatment, a mild steroid is injected in the cyst. The steroid reduces the acne substantially within a few days. This treatment also prevents scarring as it reduces the possibility of bursting of a cyst and dries it totally. Your doctor may find it necessary to cut open the acne and drain it. This procedure needs skill and patients should not try this themselves.

maragatha meenakshi asked the question:


 

Acne Vulgaris is an inflammatory disease of the skin, caused by changes in the pilosebaceous units (skin structures consisting of a hair follicle and its associated sebaceous gland). Acne lesions are commonly referred to as pimples, spots, plooks or “zits”.

Acne develops as a result of blockages in follicles. Hyperkeratinization and formation of a plug of keratin and sebum (a microcomedo) is the earliest change. Enlargement of sebaceous glands and an increase in sebum production occur with increased androgen (DHEA-S) production at adrenarche. The microcomedo may enlarge to form an open comedo (blackhead) or closed comedo (whitehead). Increased sebum production provides an environment for the overgrowth of Propionibacterium acnes. Bacterial overgrowth of Propionibacterium acnes can cause inflammation, leading to inflammatory lesions (papules, pustules, or nodules) in the dermis around the microcomedo or comedo, which may result in scarring.

Acne is most common during adolescence, affecting more than 85% of teenagers, and frequently continues into adulthood.For most people, acne diminishes over time and tends to disappear, or at least decrease, after one reaches his or her early twenties. There is, however, no way to predict how long it will take for it to disappear entirely, and some individuals will continue to suffer from acne decades later, into their thirties and forties and even beyond.

SYMPTOMS:

The term acne comes from a corruption of the Greek ???? (acme in the sense of a skin eruption) in the writings of Aëtius Amidenus. The vernacular term bacne or backne is often used to indicate acne found specifically on one’s back.

The most common form of acne is known as “acne vulgaris“, meaning “common acne.” Many teenagers get this type of acne.

The face and upper neck are the most commonly affected, but the chest, back and shoulders may have acne as well. The upper arms can also have acne, but lesions found there are often keratosis pilaris, not acne. The typical acne lesions are comedones and inflammatory papules, pustules, and nodules. Some of the large nodules were previously called “cysts” and the term nodulocystic has been used to describe severe cases of inflammatory acne. True cysts are rarely found in acne, and the term should be abandoned and the term severe nodular acne used instead.

Aside from scarring, its main effects are psychological, such as reduced self-esteem and, according to at least one study, depression or suicide. Acne usually appears during adolescence, when people already tend to be most socially insecure. Early and aggressive treatment is therefore advocated to lessen the overall impact to individuals.

Causes of acne

There are many misconceptions and myths about acne.

Primary causes

Exactly why some people get acne and some do not is not fully known. It is known to be partly hereditary. Several factors are known to be linked to acne:



Family history

Hormonal activity, such as menstrual cycles and puberty

Stress, through increased output of hormones from the adrenal (stress) glands.

Hyperactive sebaceous glands, secondary to the three hormone sources above.

Accumulation of dead skin cells.

Bacteria in the pores, to which the body becomes ‘allergic’.

Skin irritation or scratching of any sort will activate inflammation.

Use of anabolic steroids.

Any medication containing halogens (iodides, chlorides, bromides), lithium, barbiturates, or androgens.

Exposure to high levels of chlorine compounds, particularly chlorinated dioxins, can cause severe, long-lasting acne, known as Chloracne.



Several hormones have been linked to acne: the androgens testosterone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), as well as insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-I). In addition, acne-prone skin has been shown to be insulin resistant

Development of acne vulgaris in later years is uncommon, although this is the age group for Rosacea which may have similar appearances. True acne vulgaris in adults may be a feature of an underlying condition such as pregnancy and disorders such as polycystic ovary syndrome or the rare Cushing’s syndrome. Menopause-associated acne occurs as production of the natural anti-acne ovarian hormone estradiol fails at menopause. The lack of estradiol also causes thinning hair, hot flashes, thin skin, wrinkles, vaginal dryness, and predisposes to osteopenia and osteoporosis as well as triggering acne (known as acne climacterica in this situation).

Amira Razmi asked the question:


Do you want to know how to get rid of pimples fast? I know you do. Before you can achieve that, you have to first learn the truth about what really cause acne & what really make it worse. The fact that acne is a very common skin problem, people are so desperate to find cure to their acne problems which has lead to the development of myths. You can’t get rid of your acne if you don’t know the truths behind acne myths. Here are three of the biggest, most popular myths:

Myth #1: People with acne have to use oil-free skin care products.

No, it is not necessary. Firstly, oil does not cause acne. Yes, people with oily skin tend to get acne and yet some people with dry skin also get acne. And still there are some people with oily skin, don’t get acne. How is that possible then?

Myth #2: Acne can be cured.

Unfortunately, until now, there is absolutely no cure for acne. However, it is 100% treatable. You have likely heard this before, “prevention is better than cure”. Yes, the best way to treat acne is to prevent it from happening. After you have found the skin care routine that works for you, stick with it. Even if your skin has completely cleared up because there is NO cure for acne – yet.

Myth #3: Popping pimples is the best way to get rid of them quick.

No, it is the best way to get permanent scar quick. Picking or popping pimples can cause infections which will result in larger pimples! Popping fresh, new pimples can lead to permanent scars! My advise is of course, do not pop your pimples.

Now that you know these are all ridiculous myths, you can finally get rid of your pimples fast. It’s not necessary to use oil-free skin products because other products that contain oils are sometimes good for acne skin. Stick with your skin care routine & finally never ever pop your pimples.

Ashish Jain asked the question:


Shaving is a simple job. But that is so, at the normal times. This five minutes operation before the mirror every morning, turns into an ordeal when you have the attack of acne. Because, normally you shave the face as a whole. Now you shave centimeter by centimeter. You feel the facial area very large, even though it is your very same face. Its all red with designer pimples of many sizes- small, smaller and the smallest!

Well, I know shaving is your daily habit and you can’t remain without shaving, even for a day. In the morning, you have a tight schedule, as you have to reach your office in time. And this new found shaving job (on the acne piled pimples) take nearly thirty minutes of your precious morning time.

Now you seek the help of your wife for emergency pads of cotton and antiseptic solutions. There is no problem with this. It is very good if a wife can help her hubby dear during such times.

It will immense help him. No doubt, it is better to avoid shaving or give a go to your daily routine of shaving, by skipping days in between when acne attack. But this is not possible always and he has to shave for some important reasons. Say, he might have to attend some important meeting or appear as a speaker at a conference, where he would like to present himself at his best.

Now the worst part of the shaving is you can’t do it in parts. Shaving around the pimples is one situation where your dermatologist will not be able to give you any concrete help. You need to make and implement your own plan, for the duration of your pimples attack.

A wife can help him to cut the stubborn stubbles between the pimples. The other person is always in a better position to do this. For him, the operation is difficult, and he has to balance the razor with his one hand. The most important aspect of your help is, he will feel great, how much you care about his peculiar difficulty. This simple act will help him further and smoothen your already smooth relationship.

During the attack of acne, when you have lots of pimples and inflammation, it is for you to decide whether you should use Electric or safety razor. With the trial and error method, shave a small patch of your face and judge for yourself which is more comfortable. Help your spouse to soften the beard thoroughly, with the cleaner or pure water, before the actual shaving job. Avoid the nicking blemishes or if you must shave in those spots, shave lightly with utmost care.

Yuki Shoji asked the question:


Many people suffer with acne, but adolescents seem to be the most needing acne treatments. Reports show that ninety percent of people affected with acne are teens. In most cases, patients respond to acne treatments but it may take months and in some cases years before achieving the desired results.

While acne persists to afflict the lives of many, a wide range of products presented as acne treatments is available on the market. Many of these have been clinically tested and reported as effective, but many have not been scientifically proven as effective but nevertheless continue on the market.

Needless to say, always consult a health care professional for guidance in choosing the right acne treatments for your condition.

There are several forms of acne treatments available and considered somewhat effective to fight acne. Among the most suggested treatments, you will find the approach of killing the bacteria found in the acne as a result of blocked follicles.

In this case, antibiotics will be used as the desired acne treatment. The most common antibiotics are tetracyclines. For the same effect, a bacterial substance such as benzoyl peroxide is also used. Benzoyl peroxide is a topical treatment applied on the skin affected.

Although these acne treatments may seem to relieve the acne, they do not cure it. They simply treat the effect (the acne) and not its cause (oil secretion). Acne is primarily caused by oil secretion, which in turn causes the follicles to block and form cysts.

As a result, if the oil secretion problem is not resolved, acne is more likely to reoccur as soon as you stop using these forms of acne treatments. In essence, all treatments that treat the acne without treating its cause are only emergency treatments that temporarily relieve the problem. This forces the acne sufferer to repeat the treatment over and over until he decides to treat the cause of the acne.

Perhaps it means a change in diet or trying one of the other acne treatments, one that treats the root of the problem.

Derivatives of Vitamin A are also often used in acne treatments. Isotretinoin is one of the well know vitamin A derivatives. Clinical studies show that daily intake of isotretinoin will show results within a few months. The derivatives of vitamin A reduce oil secretion from the glands, and proved to be effective in treating severe and acute acne.

Contrary to the antibacterial acne treatments, acne treatments using derivatives of Vitamin A, such as isotretinoin, have found to have a longer lasting effect and even cure acne in some cases. But be aware that this solution is not perfect; it also has side effects that should not be ignored. These treatments should not be taken lightly and should always be followed closely by a health care professional.

Nowadays, acne sufferers have a wide range of treatments and approaches to help them in their fight against acne. The important thing to remember is to always research an acne treatment, along with its side effects, before going ahead. You would not want the unpleasant surprise of seeing your condition getting worse instead of better.

Jeff Schuman asked the question:


If you are one of the thousands of people that suffer from acne problems there is no longer a need to worry with the wide variety of acne treatment available. Acne continues to be one of the most common skin problems with people around the world. If you leave your skin the way it is without any acne treatment too long, there are many things that could happen. In order to clear your pores and begin living life confident, it is vital that you take a look at some of the acne treatments available.

Without using any acne treatments you take the risk of having severe skin irritation, permanent scarring and infection. There is no need to be embarrassed because of the fact that acne affects people of all ages, genders and ethnicities. When selecting an acne treatment it is important that you read up on the product. Some products are much more effective than others. One of the most effective acne treatments and by far the most publicized medicine on the market today is Proactiv Solution. This medication is a combination therapy system that is aimed at exfoliating your skin, unplugging your pores, attacking acne-causing bacteria and eliminating and soothing any sort of inflammation. There are many advantages to using Proactiv Solution over any other acne treatment on the market.

Other store bought acne treatments aim for eliminating one pimple at a time, while often times leaving your affected area irritated and red. With Proactiv, the solution will gently kill away any existing acne you may have while preventing future breakouts at the same time. Because of the soothing botanicals such as aloe and chamomile used in the medicine, your face will be left feeling healthy and smooth.

There are many other medications and creams that can be applied on your acne. Another one of the leading acne treatments is Acuzine. You will find that sometimes the best acne treatment is trial and error. In order to find what works best for your skin you may want to try a few different methods. Visiting a physician or dermatologist is helpful if you continue to find no success with any of the treatments you try.

If your skin is not clearing after any of the over-the-counter acne treatments, a dermatologist may recommend laser treatment. There are several different kinds of laser treatments, so it is vital that you discuss with your physician or dermatologist which kind would be best for you and why. Many of the laser treatments are intended for removing acne scarring as oppose to acne in general. There is however a few laser treatments that can clear your acne while preventing scarring as well.

Acne continues to be one of the leading skin problems amongst people today. However, you can prevent future breakouts and clear your existing acne in no time with the proper acne treatment. If you want to feel healthy and confident all you need to do is find the acne treatment that works best for your skin.

apple babasa asked the question:


Acne is not an easy condition to treat.  It is a disease of the skin that affects each individual differently and accordingly each case of serious acne has to be seen  separately to give it a proper treatment. While there is no catch-all treatment, which can be used for all kind of acne, a lot of trial and error method would be needed to find an effective treatment for each individual.

 

While there are a lot of acne products that are being mass-marketed as the best cure for acne, it is imperative to understand that the products that are marketed towards acne sufferers in general and those that can be brought off the shelf in the supermarket do not actually cure acne. These only manage, hide or hold back the symptoms of acne.  It is important to recognize this and also to realize that acne is not the resultant of poor hygiene.

 

If the acne is progressively getting worse, this cannot be remedied only by washing the skin frequently and by using an over the counter product. Medical advice needs to be taken for such cases and a stronger products that can be sourced only with prescription may need to be taken.  The treatment for Acne are diverse and range from, off the shelf, to over-the-counter creams, to prescription and surgical solutions.

 

While over the counter acne products are usually topical medicines that contain Benzoyl Peroxide or Salicylic Acid, these are generally used for treatment of mild acne cases where it is used to stop the acne and clear up some troublesome pimples.

The over the counter acne products can also be used during severe stages of acne in combination with other treatments. The Doctors generally recommend that the acne-infected area be cleaned gently with warm water and a mild soap, after which the topical treatment may be applied.

 

During the moderate or severe stage of acne, the doctors and dermatologists would use the combination of treatments to effectively bring down the disease. Light therapy and extraction are mostly used at the moderate stage and in combination with an oral antibiotic or a retinoid cream, again dependent on the observations and recommendations of ones doctor. Acne is a complex condition to cure and hence it is advised that there should not be any self medication done.

 

After the usage of an over-the-counter product and in the event that the same does not work, it shouldn’t be understood that the acne is incurable. A professional’s medical advice should be sought for. A doctor or a dermatologist will try to halt the progress of the acne, prevent the prossibility of acne scarring, by using different combination of products. To seriously fight and stop acne, one should learn about the latest acne fighting products that are being launched and how they would be working for the specific type of acne, from ones own doctor. One needs to be as aggressive about fighting acne as acne is about progressing step by step into a serious condition.

Kristen McDonald asked the question:


Are you needing some quick fixes to help you get rid of blackheads and pimples on your face? Well here are a few things that might be able to help you.

Quick fixes:

Concealer: Concealer is a quick fix to help you reduce the sight of your blackheads and pimples, but will not get rid of it.

Oxy, Neutrogena, and other facial cleansers: These on-shelf products will be able to get rid of teen acne, but not necessarily adult acne. I would consider using these methods if you do not have a huge amount of blemishes, just a few here and there. That should do it.

Rubbing alcohol: Rubbing alcohol will dry out your pimples and get rid of the bacteria inside them. Acne usually starts out as blackheads, and when infected turn into whiteheads which can become inflamed and irritated. So applying a small amount on blackheads that could potentially turn into pimples may be able to help prevent them from happening.

Nose Strips: Nose strips can help get rid of the annoying little blackheads on your nose quickly and efficiently. But, these do not work for everyone. Especially if your blackheads are of larger proportion. It may only remove part of the blackhead leaving more room for dirt to creep in and cause an infection, leaving a huge whitehead on your nose.

Keep your hands away from your face: Many people touch their face feeling for pimples and blemishes, and quite often ending up popping them, and this is a big mistake. Not only does popping your zits leave scars, they spread the infection to other parts of your face. And if you are popping them, that means that the oils from your hands are getting onto your face, which then clogs your pores causing infection, and when mixed with you popping your pimples you then create acne. NOT a smart idea. So keep your hands away from your face unless they are washed.



Long-term fixes:

Exfoliating: Exfoliating is a great way to scrub out your pores and will help greatly to get rid of blackheads. If you do this everyday during your daily cleansing routine, it will help keep blackheads and pimples away.

Chemical Peels: Chemical acne peels are a great way to get rid of acne. They have become a very popular because they are quite efficient, and repetitive treatments will help tremendously towards the removal of your acne. You must go to your doctor to have this done.

Water: Drinking lots of water helps to cleanse your skin of oils and toxins. You should drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water a day while usoing other cleansing methods. This should make your acne clear up quickly.

Acne Diet Systems: I find acne diet systems to be the most effective way to get rid of acne. By changing certain things in your diet, and drinking lots of water, you will be able to keep your pimples and acne away for good. When I suggest acne diets, I do not mean drink only water and eat salads kind of diet.. These diets just tell you what kind of foods to stay away from, or at least to eat them in moderation, what kind of vitamins and other supplements that will help you, foods that can help fight the root cause of acne, and so on.
