What are the types of Acne?
1. Blackheads: Plugged follicles that reach the surface of the skin
and open up. They look black because the air discolors the sebum not
because they are dirty.
2. Whiteheads: Plugged hair follicles that stay beneath the skin and
produce a white bump.
3. Papules: Inflamed lesions that usually appears as small, pink
bump and can be tender to touch.
4. Pustules: Papules topped by white or yellow pus filled lesions
that may be red at the base.
5. Nodules: Large, painful, solid lesions that are lodged deep
within the skin.
What are the Causes of Acne?
1. Unbalanced hormones cause acne vulgaris, causing oil glands to
produce too much sebum, leading to skin cell rupturing and pore
obstruction by P. acnes, the acne-causing bacterium.
2. Stress exacerbates acne by enlarging capillaries, increasing
blood flow, causing redness and irritation, raising testosterone
levels in adrenal glands, and increasing sebaceous oil gland
secretion.
3. Pollution in the environment causes skin pores to block, leading
to acne, a skin condition characterized by inflammation of clogged
pores caused by various chemical gases.
4. Overuse of cosmetics, such as foundation and concealer, can clog
pores, worsen acne, and hinder skin breathing, leading to acne.
5. Acne can be exacerbated by certain medications, including
steroids, iodide, bromide, anticonvulsant medications, oral
contraceptives, and tablets for conditions like PCOS.
