Acne Treatments

Acne affects millions of people each year and is the most common skin condition in the United States. In fact, over 50 million Americans currently suffer from acne. You may know acne as an adolescent skin condition but did you know that acne can affect you at any point in your life, no matter your age? On the other hand, you may be experiencing acne and acne scarring.

WHAT
Causes Acne?
Acne has a lot of different causes. Practicing a good skin care routine can help prevent superficial causes like too oily skin. However some causes may need medical intervention. Often traditional treatments for acne and acne scarring include medications like antibiotics, topical creams, and sometimes injections or surgery. All of these treatments will provide varying results, especially if tried at home.
The following factors can cause or worsen acne:
  • Excess oil production in the skin
  • Hair follicles clogged by oil and dead skin cells
  • Bacteria
  • Overactivity of a hormone
  • Diet
  • Stress
Acne can develop in a number of areas including the back, face, forehead, or even chest. It can surface as pimples, whiteheads, or blackheads which can indicate bacteria or an excess of oil in the area. Along with these, acne scars will develop that can be hard to get rid of. Often, surgery is required to remove these scars, but what if there was another, less-invasive way?
