Health - Acne Overview and Information
Overview of Acne
Acne is the most common form
of skin disorder in America.
Millions of people suffer
from acne everyday. Although
teenagers and young adults
are more susceptible to have
outbreaks, older adults who
are going through menopause
or pregnant may also suffer
from acne as well.
Acne is caused by an increase
in hormones that produce an
excess of sebum which keeps
hair follicles moisturized.
A bacteria called Propionibacterium
acnes uses this sebum as nutrients
and infects the skin pores
creating pimples and pustules.
Acne can be treated by a dermatologist
or a host of over the counter
remedies. Many times acne
can be difficult to treat
because there is rarely a
one size fits all medicine
or treatment that works for
everyone. Many people will
experiment with what works
best, by trying different
cleansers, medicines and facial
lotions. There are a host
of great products on the market
including natural treatments
to rid yourself of acne. Many
pharmaceutical companies have
products for the treatment
of acne and there are several
new types of acne medicines
up for review by the Federal
Drug Administration.
If you are suffering from
a mild case of acne it is
extremely beneficial to try
over the counter or natural
remedies. For severe sufferers
of acne is advised that they
seek a consultation with their
dermatologist or physician.
