ACNE

What is

ACNE

Acne is the most common skin disease in the world — 80 percent of all people experience an acne breakout at some point in their lives, often during the teenage years. This is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It causes whiteheads, pimples, or blackheads.

Acne vulgaris most frequently affects the face, neck, back, chest, and shoulders, areas that tend to have the greatest concentration of oil-producing glands.

TYPES OF ACNE

  • There are non-inflammatory and inflammatory acne types. Noninflammatory acne includes whiteheads and blackheads. They are the least severe forms of acne and are easier to treat than inflammatory acne types. Inflammatory acne is more severe than non-inflammatory acne and may cause complications such as scarring. This acne type includes papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts.
  • Self-medication can be harmful to your skin, and only a top-rated Hyderabad acne dermatologist knows how to get rid of acne and select the proper treatment for a particular acne type.

Treatments for Acne



The general rule of thumb is that the earlier you start treatment, the less likely you are to have scars. There are many over-thecounter treatments, but if you’ve used them for several weeks or more with no improvement, it’s time to see an acne doctor in Hyderabad. A dermatologist in Hyderabad works to treat the acne you have, prevent further breakouts to avoid further scarring, and provide treatment to make your scars less noticeable.

You have several options available to you when it comes to treatment. Your Hyderabad acne dermatologist can review each in detail. Depending on the severity of your acne, she’ll guide you through treatment options that are best for you. There are three general options for treating acne

Topical medications

Topical medications are the standard of care for mild and moderate acne and can prevent new lesions. They require at least six to eight weeks before any improvement is seen. Topical treatments include retinoids, antimicrobials, sulfur, or dapsone.

Oral Medications

An acne dermatologist will use oral medications, especially when your acne isn’t responding to topical medications. These include antibiotics to control inflammation and bacteria growth, combined oral contraceptives, an anti-androgen agent, or the drug isotretinoin (Accutane). Your doctor can explain what each does and what the risks are.

Other therapies

Other therapies include red and blue light therapy, chemical peels, whitehead and blackhead extractions, corticosteroid injections.
