Acne

Today’s acne has become a rising concern among the cosmeticeutical industry. Acne can be triggered at any age and range in different types. The underlying causes of acne are excessive sebum and dead cells trapped deep in the pores. This blockage causes bacteria (Propionibacterium Bacteria or P. Bacteria) to inflame the skin which results in outbreaks. This could be demonstrated in a variety of different forms.

  • Comedones
    Blackheads : trapped sebum exposed in oxygen
    Whiteheads : trapped sebum covered by skin

  • Papules
    Tender red bumps with no head. Do not try to extract because this may cause scarring and release more P. Bacteria throughout the skin.

  • Pustules
    Very common and similar to whiteheads. This form is inflamed with a yellow center and red ring around the outer edge.

  • Nodule
    These are large bumps under the skin. Can take months to heal. It is very important not to extract causing more infection.

  • Cysts
    Similar to a nodule with pus-filled bacteria. Very important not to extract causing more infection.
