Acne is a common skin condition that affects people of all ages, characterised by pimples, blackheads, and cysts. At My Dermatology Clinics, we offer tailored treatments that target the underlying causes of acne to help you achieve smooth, clear skin.
Symptoms
- Pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads.
- Painful cysts or nodules under the skin.
- Red, inflamed, or irritated areas on the face, chest, or back.
- Scarring or hyperpigmentation after acne lesions heal.
Causes and Risk Factors
Causes:
- Excess oil production, clogged pores, and bacterial infections.
- Hormonal changes, especially during puberty, menstruation, or pregnancy.
- Poor skincare habits or the use of comedogenic products.
- Stress, poor diet, and environmental factors.
Risk Factors:
- Family history of acne or other skin conditions.
- Oily skin type, which is more prone to breakouts.
- Certain medications or skincare products that clog pores.
- Excessive touching or picking at the skin.
Treatment Options
- Topical Treatments: Prescribed creams and gels to reduce inflammation and prevent breakouts.
- Chemical Peels: Exfoliate the skin and reduce clogged pores, revealing smoother skin.
- Laser Therapy: Targets acne-causing bacteria and reduces scarring.
- Microneedling: Stimulates collagen production to reduce scars and promote healing.
- Oral Medications: For severe cases, including antibiotics or hormone therapy to regulate oil production.
Prevention Tips
- Cleanse your skin twice daily with a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and oil.
- Avoid touching or picking at your acne to prevent scarring.
- Use non-comedogenic skincare and makeup products.
- Maintain a healthy, balanced diet with plenty of water and antioxidants.
- Manage stress through relaxation techniques, as it can trigger breakouts.
