Pimples and acne are a common problem,which often contributes to the development of complexes about appearance. There are situations when they even interfere with the arrangement of personal life and career. Some people struggle with this problem for years. It is not easy to get rid of it. There are many reasons for the appearance of acne. There is an opinion that this problem mainly affects teenagers during puberty due to hormonal changes in the body. However, this is not true. Acne can bother anyone, regardless of gender and age.

The main causes of acne

Hormonal disorders. Due to the increased content of androgen, the male sex hormone, which begins to be intensively produced during puberty, the sebaceous glands are enlarged and clogged. As a result, acne occurs.

Excessive work of the sebaceous glands. They produce too much skin oil, which mixes with microbes and keratinized cells, resulting in inflammatory elements appearing on the skin.

Bacteria propionibacterium. They live on the skin of any person. However, begin to develop excessively when the pores are contaminated.

There are several degrees of the disease.

The lightest degree is characterized by the presence on the skin of a small number of white and black eels. Acne and inflammation are almost absent.

Along with acne, acne is observed. This stage is amenable to independent treatment. But, if you can not get rid of the problem within 3 weeks, it is better to contact a cosmetologist to avoid deterioration.

It differs from the previous number of inflammations. At 3 stages of the disease, acne on the skin is much greater. Independently with this problem to cope hard enough.

The heaviest. In addition to acne and acne on the skin, abscesses and purulent inflammations are formed. An urgent help is required from an experienced specialist.

To avoid serious complications, it is necessary to start treating acne at an early stage. In addition, remember several factors that contribute to the development of the disease:

Fluid retention in the body. Surely many noticed that in the premenstrual period there are especially many rashes.

Acceptance of some medications. In particular, this applies to birth control pills.

Skin contamination with mineral oils. They are part of many cosmetics. Therefore, if you are concerned about acne, avoid using powder and foundation.

Mechanical skin irritations. To comb and squeeze out pimples is strictly forbidden.

If you don’t start taking measures in time, thenIt will be difficult to get rid of acne. In addition, they leave behind spots and even scars. And if they are easy to hide on the body, then on the face even foundation and powder often do not help. Therefore, after getting rid of acne, the fight against the marks that are left behind begins. Depending on the severity of the situation, different types of acne scars remain on the face - from barely noticeable spots to deep scars. Most often, so-called trophic scars form at the site of acne, which are depressions with rounded edges. They are formed due to a lack of collagen. However, there are also convex scars - hypertrophic, or keloid. The third type is normotrophic scars, which are flush with the skin. They are light in color and have a flat appearance, close in elasticity to normal skin tissue. If nothing is done, they will remain for life. And with proper timely treatment, you can, if not completely get rid of, then at least smooth out acne scars. In general, each type of scar requires its own treatment method. For example, what will improve the situation with trophic scars can harm keloid scars. In particularly severe advanced cases, surgery may be required. The unpleasant scar is either excised or, conversely, a piece of healthy tissue is added to the affected area. The duration of such a procedure is no more than an hour. Less deep and noticeable acne scars can be eliminated in a salon using cosmetic procedures that will be provided to you in almost any beauty salon.
