Acne is one of the most common skin conditions in the world, affecting an estimated 85% of young adults.
WHAT CAUSES ACNE?
Acne starts when the pores in your skin get clogged with oil and dead skin cells.
Each pore is connected to a sebaceous gland, which produces an oily substance called sebum. Extra sebum can plug pores, causing the growth of a bacteria known as Propionibacterium acnes, or P. acnes.
Your white blood cells attack P. acnes, leading to skin inflammation and acne. Some cases of acne are more severe than others, but common symptoms include whiteheads, blackheads, and pimples.
MANY FACTORS MAY CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF ACNE, INCLUDING:
* genetics
* diet
* stress
* hormone changes
* infections
TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR ACNE-
1. topical creams
2. chemical peels
3. co2 laser
4. dermabrasion and prp therapy
5. microneedling
6. fat grafting.
Which treatment will be suitable to your face , will be decided by your plastic surgeon.
