Contrary to what many people believe, acne breakouts, while extremely common, often cannot be resolved by home remedies. Caused mainly due to infections in the sebaceous glands that lead to overproduction of sebum and clogged hair follicles, acne attacks occur generally on the face, but can also appear on the chest, back, neck and shoulders. If left untreated, acne can leave nasty scars on the affected areas. If you have been affected by acne, it is important to consult an expert or the best dermatologist in Bangalore for acne at an early stage.

Types Of Acne

Whiteheads on nose

Whiteheads

One of the most common forms of acne are whiteheads,
which are also known as ‘closed comedones’. They generally
appear as small, whitish or skin-coloured skin bumps,
and are caused due to the pores getting clogged
with excess sebum and dead skin cells.

Blackheads on nose

Blackheads

When 'closed comedones’ open up and are exposed, they get oxidised and form a black plugーwhich are called blackheads. This type of acne is generally not inflammatory, and is not accompanied by swelling or pain.

Acne Papules on skin

Papules

Papules, or ‘acne papules’, appear as red and swollen
skin bumps. When the pores get clogged with dead skin
cells and oil, these papules make their appearance.
This type of acne can cause inflammation
and be relatively painful.

Pustules - red and swollen skin bumps

Pustules

Papules that get filled up with pus are known as pustules.
These skin bumps are red and swollen, and can develop
white or yellow caps. Pustules can leave nasty
scars and blemishes if they are picked or scratched.

Acne nodules on Skin

Nodules

One of the most severe and troublesome types of acne
are the nodules - which are, in essence, firm skin bumps
that are painful to touch. Nodules can either appear
on a standalone basis, or in groups. These acne
varieties are typically embedded deeply in the skin.

Acne cysts on skin

Cysts

Cysts are pus-filled acne that appear as soft, painful red lumps
that are deep-rooted in the skin. They occur most
commonly on the face and jawbone, and can leave
unpleasant scars when picked or scratched. A timely
& systematic treatment procedure is essential.

The severity of acne can be significantly reduced through simple changes in day-to-day lifestyle. For instance, dairy products and high-gluten food should be avoided, and plenty of green leafy vegetables, Omega-3 rich food and water should feature in daily diets. Exercising regularly and getting adequate sleep can also work wonders.
From benzoyl peroxide treatment for eliminating bacteria and reducing inflammation, to application of salicylic acid for treating relatively mild acne breakouts, we prescribe topical creams with active ingredients that are sometimes enough to resolve acne.
In order to bring down the production of sebum in the sebaceous glands, anti-inflammatory medications, like retinoids, are generally prescribed. They also help in normalising the cell life cycles of follicles. Other oral medications can also be prescribed, depending on the severity of the acne condition.

Chemical Peel

Chemical peels are an effective way to treat acne. They trigger exfoliation of the dead or scarred skin and help produce new skin cells. The strength of the chemical peel used depends on the severity of the acne condition. Agents like salicylic acid and mandelic acid under guided supervision help control acne. Also, black peel treatment is performed from time to time.

Carbon Application with Q-Switched Laser

A combination of carbon peels with a Q-Switched laser helps to shrink the oil glands, break pigmentation and clean up the clogged pores. Also known as Hollywood Peel, this treatment is popular worldwide and is proven to deliver great results.

Intralesional Therapy

This therapy involves intralesional injections, and are generally recommended for the treatment of nodular and cystic acne. The treatment helps in the reduction in the size of active acne.

Frequently Asked Questions

Acne is usually a blanket term which covers different kinds of breakouts, blemishes, pimples, zits etc. And it important to classify and know which type of acne you have before putting it into a generic category:

  • 1. Mild or Grade 1 acne are mostly small whitish coloured skin bumps(whiteheads) or blackheads on your face.
  • 2. Moderate/pustular acne or Grade 2 acne is categorized by multiple red swollen skin bumps(papules) which might sometimes get filled with pus and develop yellow caps(pustules) on your face.
  • 3. Severe or nodulocystic acne is categorized by numerous firm skin bumps that are deeply embedded in the skin are are painful to touch.
When you are stressed, your body releases stress hormones like cortisol and androgens which increases your skin’s oil production and leads to acne breakouts. Stress acne usually appears or pops in the T-zone which is prone to the most oil production. The oiliest areas of your face are the forehead, nose and chin, where the stress acne usually appears. Cluster acne on your face can be due to stress as well.
Acne marks are usually skin blemishes or pigmentaion that are due to acne breakouts which were not serious enough to cause scars and can diminish over time with over the counter medications. Acne scars, on the other hand, are more serious skin issues which occurs due to collagen damage and leaves a permanent indent on the skin. They require proper treatment which should be done under the supervision of a dermatologist.
Chemical peels and laser resurfacing are frequently needed for deep scars. Fillers and PRP treatment are a safe and effective way for dermatologists to lift depressed acne scars. Dermatologists may use collagen, the patient’s own fat, or another substance to cover acne scars. Many fillers will provide you with transient effects that last between 6 and 18 months.
Whiteheads are closed comedones which are formed due excess oil and dead skin cells getting clogged in the pores. With time, as our body produces more sebum and dead skin cells, the pores open. When these open pores get oxidized, they form a black plug called blackheads.
