Often referred to as teenagers' nightmare, acne is a skin condition marked by outbreaks of pimples, including whiteheads, blackheads, pustules, cysts, and nodules. This skin condition occurs when hair follicles (or “pores”) become clogged with dead skin cells and oil.<\/p>\n
Untreated severe acne breakouts can potentially scar the face permanently and cause devastation. It can also cause depression and self-confidence issues. Therefore, it is important to treat acne early and aggressively<\/a> with the right treatment to prevent scarring and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).[1]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n According to Dr. Kenneth Thean at Ensoul Medical Clinic<\/a>, acne outbreaks can be caused by a combination of several factors in addition to clogged pores.[2]<\/sup><\/a> The underlying factors include ingrown hairs, hyperactivity of the sebaceous glands, and bacterial activity.<\/p>\n Hormonal imbalances can also cause acne in adolescents and adults. Women are more likely to suffer from acne, and it can be a long-term problem as well. One example of hormonal activity is how the pattern roughly corresponds with their menstrual cycle. For instance, acne is more likely to flare up during the week before or during your period. Acne can also be observed in women who use oral contraceptives regularly.<\/p>\n Acne breakouts<\/a> are far more complicated than they seem.[3]<\/sup><\/a> The condition cannot be treated with a universal acne treatment.

Over-the-counter (OTC) and medical chemical peel treatments are also effective for them. Usually glycolic or salicylic acid peels are prescribed due to their exfoliating properties.<\/p>\n These acne treatment effective<\/a> to remove dead skin cells and prevent the buildup of bacteria which can cause whiteheads and blackheads.[4]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n - Inflamed acne is characterized by swelling, redness, and deeply clogged pores filled with bacteria, oil, and dead skin cells. Inflamed acne can sometimes be caused by bacteria called Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes).<\/p>\n Some examples of inflammatory acne include papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts.<\/p>\n Treatment for Pustules & Papules Acne<\/strong>: Other acne treatments include chemical peels, Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), LED light therapy, laser treatment<\/a>, and RF microneedling are some other options patients can consider.[6]<\/sup><\/a> These treatments can help control overactive sebum production, reduce inflammation, improve PIH and clear acne scars<\/a> as well as slow down acne breakouts.[7]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n Treatment for Nodules and Cystic Acne Treatments<\/strong>:2.
