  1. HOW DOES ACNE FORM? EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW. LIVE WELL. LIVE HAPPY. LIVE AGELESS.

  2. How Does Acne Form? Everything You Need To Know. The one thing common in almost all kinds of acne is that they all are the results of various irregularities in the same gland. Read about it in detail and how you can deal with it, here:

  3. There are several different types of acne, and its effective treatment depends upon the type of acne. But, one thing is similar for all that is they are caused by some irregularities of the pilosebaceous units Your pilosebaceous units consist of: • A hair follicle • A hair shaft • Sebaceous glands

  4. Let us see the different types of acne, depending on the issue that happens to the pilosebaceous units.

  5. Ordinary pimple (Inflammatory papule) The ordinary, inflamed, red bump that appears on your face when you think of acne is known as a regular pimple. Experts call this regular red pimple inflammatory papule.

  6. Why do they happen? A hair follicle contains sebum secreted by the sebaceous gland. And with it dirt and dead skin cells also get trapped in the pores. Resulting in the blockage and allowing bacteria P.acnes to grow in the area, causing inflammation and outbreak.

  7. What to do? There are two ways to approach this problem: • Try and reduce the stickiness of the cells so that there is no buildup in the hair canal. • Solution: Use over-the-counter salicylic acid and prescribed tretinoin products to reduce the stickiness.

  8. Continued… • Deal directly with the bacteria • Solution: Use over-the-counter benzoyl peoxide or topical antibiotic creams that kill P. acnes. The doctor may prescribe oral antibiotics if you have too many pimples.

  9. Pustule They are the same as that of a pimple. But the only difference that sets them apart from pimple is they contain the white blood cells, too.

  10. Why do they happen? The white cells that are present connect with the P.acnes to form a greater buildup within the pimple. Excess white cells lead to pus, which is the first sign of pustules.

  11. What to do? The treatment involved is the same as that of an ordinary pimple.

  12. Early acne (Microcomedone) The terrible amongst the types of acne which happens in the early youth. And hormones do play a role in this type of acne formation.

  13. Why do they happen? The acne process is similar to the ordinary pimples but there are some differences. The skin cells that shed are known as corneocytes. Usually not sticky, but sometimes they become sticky and accumulate, which results in the growth of bacteria p.acnes that feed on the sebum. And as excess sebum attracts excess bacteria, the entire follicle gets inflamed.

  14. What to do? • Use tretinoin or salicylic acid lotions to reduce the stickiness of the cells. • Also, use benzoyl peroxide to arrest the growth of P.acnes.

  15. Cyst or Nodule The most painful and aesthetically problematic type of acne involves scarring and even oozing of blood. Impossible to cover up, they can get worse if not handled properly.

  16. Why do they happen? Like early acne, there is an excessive buildup of corneocytes and the sebum. This massive buildup, when spilled into surrounding tissues, creates scars and even a bit of bleeding. A painful cyst gets formed after this.

  17. What to do? • Do not go for the over-the-counter products as it is too late for it at this stage. • Along with topical and oral antibiotics, use products that reduce the stickiness of the cells. • Some doctors may prescribe Accutane along with regular monitoring to check for any ad verse effects.

  18. Whiteheads and Blackheads The blackheads are present in the open pore while the whiteheads are in the closed pores.

  19. Why do they happen? The buildup of sebaceous material results in the formation of whiteheads and blackheads. What makes them different is the consistency of this type of content, it becomes firm and thick. If the pore remains open, it is a blackhead, easily classified by the color. Whereas, the closed pores will form a whitehead.

  20. What to do? • Using salicylic acid based lotions prevents stickiness as well as the buildup from being firm and consistent. • Use benzoyl peroxide that will help to kill the bacteria and stop the infection. • Use over-the-counter options like trenoin-based products and topical antibiotics.

  21. Taking care with regular facial hygiene, and proper skincare routines will help you maintain beautiful and clean skin that is acne-free.
