Acne Treatment
Acne is a common inflammatory skin condition that affects not only the face but also the arms, back, and chest. It is caused by clogged hair follicles due to excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. At Gupta Skin Care Clinic, we offer expert diagnosis and personalized treatments to effectively manage and treat acne.
Understanding Acne
Acne typically manifests as pimples, blackheads, cysts, or whiteheads and can be aggravated by various factors, including hormonal changes, stress, diet, and certain medications. It can occur at any age, but it is most common during adolescence.
Aggravating Factors for Acne
- Premenstrual flare-ups: Hormonal fluctuations during menstruation often lead to acne breakouts.
- Oil-based cosmetics: These can clog pores, worsening acne.
- Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): This condition can cause hormonal imbalances that trigger acne.
- Certain medications: Steroids, antiepileptics, and anti-tuberculosis (ATT) drugs can exacerbate acne.
- Diet: High-calorie, oily, or processed foods may worsen acne.
- Emotional stress: Stress is a major trigger for acne flare-ups.
Precautions to Prevent Acne Breakouts
- Wash your face regularly: Cleanse your face 3-4 times a day to remove excess oil and impurities.
- Shampoo your scalp regularly: Wash your hair 2-3 times a week to prevent oil transfer to your face.
- Avoid greasy cosmetics: Use non-comedogenic skincare products to reduce the risk of clogged pores.
- Do not pick or squeeze pimples: Picking at acne can lead to scarring and increase the spread of bacteria.
