Yuck Acne!
Girls Have you ever been embarrassed to leave your home without
wearing makeup because your face is completely broken out? And
guys have you ever been afraid to ask a girl out on a date
because your face erupted in pimples? Thanks to dermatology
advances over the years there are many over-the-counter herbal
and prescription acne treatments
available to help lessen and stop break-outs.
Acne is a common infection of the skin that causes the
inflammation of the pilosebaceous units. These units are made up
of a sebaceous gland which is connected to a follicle that
contains fine hair. When there is over-activity of oil glands at
the base of these hair follicles acne occurs.
Some characteristics of acne include black heads white heads pimples and cysts. If a
person leaves his or her acne untreated or attempts to squeeze
and pop the pimples scarring may occur. Acne mostly occurs
in adolescents although some people are prone to adult acne. It
can be found anywhere on the body but is mostly found on the
face
upper back and chest where pilosebaceous units are most
numerous.
Doctors who study and treat acne conditions are
called dermatologists. Dermatologists do not know the exact
causes of acne but they do know that an increase in hormones
called androgens in boys and girls during puberty cause the
sebaceous glands to become larger. When this happens acne forms.
Pregnancy genetics environmental factors such as pollution and
menstrual periods are all also triggers of acne.
Acne treatment is
often sought to avoid scarring of the skin. It is also sought to
give a person more confidence and a better appearance. People
with severe acne can take prescription medication given to them
by a dermatologist. Oral antibiotics make up many of such
prescription medications taken for the problem.
