Understanding Acne

Acne is an inflammatory skin disorder of the skin’s sebaceous glands and hair follicles.

Acne is formed when pores  become clogged by sebum, dead skin and dirt.

Causes of Acne

  • Hormonal changes
  • Over production of sebum
  • Pores are clogged by excess sebum and dead skin cells
  • Inflammation caused by bacteria feeding on excess sebum and dead skin cells

The bacteria activates under the skin while squeezing, scratching and rubbing cause the bacteria to spread under the skin and rupture, which eventually spreads the inflammation.

Teenage Acne

Acne is a common occurrence during adolescence due to hormonal change.  It is reported to affect 80% of people between ages of 12 to 24.  Although it may start earlier in girls, boys usually form more severe acne.

Acne problem may be characterised into open comedones (blackheads), closed comedones (whiteheads), inflammatory (papules/pustules), nodules and cysts.

Acne Scars

Unfortunately, long after acne problems have been resolved, the tell-tale signs of acne scars remain.  Acne scarring often results from picking and squeezing the pimples in an effort to eliminate excess pus, sebum, dirt and oil, causing irreparable injury and damage to the skin.

Scars are composed of fibrous tissue that replaces normal skin, affecting the appearance and feel of the skin They prevent hair and sweat gland regrowth and are also more susceptible to UV damage.

Without professional treatment procedures, the acne scars will remain.  But you don’t have to live with acne scars.
