  1. What Is Acne And How To Treat It Acne is a skin problem that causes pimples on the face, neck, chest, back, and upper shoulders. Acne is caused when dead skin and oil block the hair follicles, causing inflammation. 50 million Americans are affected by acne annually, making it the most common skin condition in the U.S. Acne usually occurs at puberty, when the sebaceous glands are activated, but it can occur at any age too. Acne does not pose any threats to health but can leave stubborn scars on the skin. Consider having acne treatment in Stockton if you are suffering from acne for a long time and don’t know the solution.

  2. Types of acne: ● Whiteheads: Whiteheads are the plugged hair follicles that remain under the skin and produce a white lump. ● Blackheads: These are the plugged hair follicles that reach the skin and open up. They are black and clearly visible. ● Papules: These are the small, pink bumps on the skin. ● Pustule: These are the pus-filled pimples that are red at the base and clearly visible on the skin. ● Nodules: These are the large and painful pimples that are embedded deep in the skin. ● Cysts: Cysts are deep, painful, pus-filled lesions that are clearly visible and can cause scars. What Causes Acne? Human skin pores are connected to oil glands beneath the skin. These pores and glands are joined by follicles. Small sacs called follicles generate and secrete fluids. These glands produce an oily liquid which is called sebum. Sebum helps to carry dead skin cells to the surface of the skin through the hair follicles. Pimples are caused when these follicles are blocked and oil builds up under the skin. Sebum, hair, and skin cells can combine into a clog. The bacterial infection leads to swelling in this plug. When the plug starts to deteriorate, a pimple starts developing.

  3. Things that can trigger acne: ● Hormonal changes can cause the skin to be oilier. These hormones can be imbalanced due to puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, birth control pills, or stress. ● Using Oily and greasy cosmetic products. ● Excessive sweating and humidity ● Excessively touching or scrubbing the skin. ● Environmental factors like humidity and pollution. How to treat acne: OTC (Over The Counter) drugs, such as skin-applied gels, soaps, creams, and lotions, can treat mild acne. For sensitive skin, lotions and creams work well. Alcohol-based gels are excellent for oily skin because they dry up the skin. A skin specialist or a dermatologist can cure moderate to severe acne. Acne prevention tips: ● Wash your face twice every day with warm water and a mild soap made for acne. ● Avoid scrubbing the skin and bursting the pimples. ● Stop touching your face with dirty hands. ● Try to hold your phone away from your face as it is likely to contain sebum and skin residue.

  4. ● Do not apply any cosmetics on the face with dirty hands. Always wash your hands first. ● If you have acne on the back, chest, and shoulder avoid wearing tight clothes. ● Avoid using oil-based products and remove your makeup before sleeping. ● Avoid too much sun exposure as it can increase the production of sebum. ● Try to avoid stress and anxiety as they fuel the production of cortisol and adrenaline which increases acne. ● Try to avoid sweating in hot and humid weather.
