Acne is a very common skin condition that causes lesions, especially on the face, forehead, chest, shoulders, and upper back. Although acne usually affects teenagers, it can occur at any age.
What is acne?
Acne vulgaris is the medical name for acne, a skin condition that occurs when hair follicles are blocked or inflamed. Acne can manifest through the appearance of open comedones (blackheads), closed comedones (whiteheads), nodules, papules, and pustules.
Types of acne
Pediatric acne, juvenile acne (adolescents), and adult acne (after age 25). By severity: mild, moderate, and severe.
Causes of acne
Excess oil (sebum) production, hair follicles clogged by oil and dead skin cells, bacteria, and inflammation are the four main factors that cause acne.
Acne: risk factors
Age, hormonal changes, family history, greasy or oily substances, certain medications, cigarette smoke, environmental irritants, stress, and sleep deprivation.
Acne treatment
Medication
Topical or oral antibiotics, retinoids, azelaic acid, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic acid, salicylic acid.
Dermatocosmetic treatment
Add Glycolic Acid 3% Cleansing Gel to your daily skincare routine, which removes dead skin cells, eliminates impurities, and restores skin radiance without drying it out.
Also, the Ivapur Range is dedicated to acne-prone skin and contains products specially created for treating acne:
Acne: prevention
Washing your face no more than twice a day, avoiding scrubs, avoiding touching your face, washing hands frequently, avoiding oil-based cosmetics, and managing stress levels.
Therefore, acne is a skin condition that can occur at any age, though it is more frequent among teenagers. Early treatment can prevent scarring, which is why a dermatological consultation is recommended at the first signs of acne.
