Acne Treatment: Clearer Skin, Renewed Confidence
Acne treatment focuses on reducing breakouts, preventing scarring, and improving overall skin health. It involves a personalized approach based on the type and severity of acne, ensuring long-term results.
Main Causes of Acne:
- Excess Sebum Production:
- Overactive oil glands produce too much sebum, leading to clogged pores and acne breakouts.
- Clogged Pores:
- Dead skin cells that aren’t properly shed can block hair follicles, trapping oil and bacteria.
- Bacterial Growth:
- Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) bacteria thrive in clogged pores, causing inflammation and pimples.
- Hormonal Changes:
- Hormonal fluctuations during puberty, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or stress can trigger excess oil production and acne.
- Dietary Factors:
- Foods high in sugar, dairy, and refined carbohydrates may worsen acne by increasing inflammation and oil production.
- Stress:
- Stress does not directly cause acne but can exacerbate it by increasing hormone levels that stimulate oil glands.
- Genetics:
- A family history of acne can increase the likelihood of developing the condition.
- Cosmetic Products:
- Using heavy, pore-clogging (comedogenic) products can contribute to acne breakouts.
- Medications:
- Certain medications, such as steroids, lithium, or hormonal drugs, can trigger or worsen acne.
- Environmental Factors:
- Pollution, humidity, and exposure to irritants can clog pores and lead to acne.
