Acne treatment is complex because the causes that arise may be multiple, IE that the etiology is multifactorial.

But despite the complexity of the subject of acne, whatever the factor that produces or skin affected sector, must take into account the meet with a “golden rule” for the chosen acne treatment is successful .

Hygiene measures:
Do not manipulate the skin to try to remove the “pimple”: The pressure exerted by the thumb and forefinger of one hand, or worse using the fingers of both hands to do more strength, can cause sebaceous follicle rupture , which contains germs and can spread the infection causing dermatitis in neighboring areas. So do not have to miss the appearance of small vesicles filled with pus (pustules), which are to be feared, because irreversible scarring. Twice daily sanitize the affected skin of the face, torso, and any affected area. Usually indicates water and soap (preferably a dermatological product antiseborrheic action) and then dried completely once cleared the area.

A dietary change:
Reducing the foods that tend to cause skin reactions in young people. Foods that should be banned are: chocolate and strawberries, but it should be noted that as mentioned above, food is only one factor that interacts with others.

Cosmetics:
Do not use any cosmetics product that does not contain in its packaging for “Suitable for skin suffering from acne or seborrheic”, since in some cosmetic creams are certain fatty components that may influence the production of more areas of acne.

Adopt as a principle not to use cosmetics called “normal”:
Those that use and customs are advised among friends and family.

Specific acne treatment:
The multiple causes of acne and the role that hormonal changes during puberty, become difficult any attempt therapeutic choose a dermatologist because whatever the improvement is observed over time. Many times it happens that when starting an anti-acne treatment, initially the patient feels that aggravated his dermopathy, so this situation must be noticed by the treating professional to avoid dropping the patient, especially when dealing with a teenager.

Products that are applied to these cures have to develop at least three functions:

Desescamante Function: similar to having a “peeling” moderate (also called function “keratolytic” moderate), through which the tube that would have to move fat produced by the gland is free of obstruction and a dead end. This activity causes a slight skin irritation. This observation is very important because as we have found that most of the products used to treat acne, have a salutary effect and produce an irritant action of the epidermis, the professionals who prescribe should warn their patients about the effects undesirable side. The most effective components, regardless of the treatment that your dermatologist can prescribe are as follows:
• Sulfur and / or salicylic acid
• Azelaic acid, moderate concentrations
• Benzoyl peroxide, moderate concentrations
• Glycolic acid, moderate concentrations
• Exfoliating microbes that are part of cleaning fluids

Acne treatment
Antiseborrheic Function: also called sebum-regulating or sebostatic, with which it seeks to reduce excessive sebum that characterizes youth acneic skins. There are several moderately effective components, among which are:
• Sulfur (less used now than before)
• Azelaic acid
• Sulfate or zinc acetate
• Extract of Arctium majus or Nasturtium officinalis
• Benzoyl peroxide in moderate
• Porous microparticles fat can absorb more fluid, which reduces the brightness of the skin
Antimicrobial function: designed to reduce the number of microorganisms that proliferate and fill the follicle acneic. Especially used the following components:
• Benzoyl peroxide in moderate
• Triclosan
• Azelaic acid, moderate concentration
• Ethyl lactate
• Moderate exposure, and only occasionally, the sun, because the radiation is antimicrobial.
But WARNING: prolonged or repeated for hours on successive days is the danger that the fattening skin surface to accumulate because keratins, and that they block the sebaceous follicles and aggravate the acne process.

Observation

The above components can be identified in Dermopharmacy products and pharmaceutical advertising specialties. In recent years, the most used products usually incorporating benzoyl peroxide or azelaic acid, because they develop corrective functions simultaneously, but NOT ALL PATIENTS TO REACT POSITIVELY diferenes ACNE TREATMENT TYPES.

Counseling

If despite treatment, the situation does not yield acneica but evidently intensifies, it is essential to visit the dermatologist. Only this professional may prescribe medications that allow querolíticos make a more aggressive treatment with anti-inflammatories, antibiotics or hormones, the choice of which requires a good diagnosis and follow-up to allow control of the potential harmful effects.
