What You Should Know About Acne
There are many different types of acne and with that come
many theories, myths, and treatments. The exact cause
of acne remains a mystery. Why some pores are affected
by acne and others aren’t, is not known. Each case
of acne is as complex as the individual battling it and
a treatment that works on one person’s acne may not
work on yours.
Acne obviously has physical effects but it can also have
psychological effects, especially in teens. Most teenagers
already feel awkward and different, add acne to the equation
and they are identifiably different. Most teenagers with
acne tend to have lower self esteem, than their peers
with clear skin, and are not involved in as many activities.
Adult acne is on the rise and can also be very difficult
to deal with. Due to the changes that our skin goes through
as we mature, scarring is often worse in adults with acne
than in teens with acne. Adults with acne are also less
likely than teens to seek treatment for their acne, leaving
them to suffer alone.
Whether you are an adult with acne or a teenager with
acne, your acne probably falls into one of a two main
categories, inflammatory acne or non-inflammatory acne.
If you have blackheads or whiteheads, or both, then you
have non-inflammatory acne. Inflammatory acne can be a
little harder to identify. Inflammatory acne is characterized
by papules, pustules, and in more serious cases, nodules
or cysts.
Once you have determined which category your acne falls
into, you can explore the treatment options for your acne.
Keep in mind that even if you have tried several different
acne treatments to no avail, there is always something
else to try for your acne. There are new acne treatments
coming up left and right and the next new acne treatment
might be the one that goes directly to work attacking
your acne and leaving you with the clear skin you’ve
longed for.
