Acne and as a result an ugly face. This is the fear of many teenagers, because most people at this age suffer from this disease. Everyone has probably heard of acne. What is it, is it a disease, and is it possible to treat? Now let's figure it all out.
About the concept
Probably all teenagers have heard about this term. But what exactly does it mean? In simple terms, it is an infected inflammation of the human sebaceous glands. Most often, this disease manifests itself on the face, in more severe cases - on the neck, back and chest. On the surface of the skin, you can see both empty and purulent pimples, which in medicine are called pustules and papules. In appearance, they are a little reddish, as if inflamed, they are simply with a red border. A white dot can be seen in the middle. It should be noted that these pimples are most often painful, even if you just touch them. Acne also includes non-inflamed black dots - comedones, which, however, if they are not removed in time, can also become inflamed and develop into purulent pimples.
Reasons
So, knowing about the concept of "acne" - what it is, and how this disease manifests itself, we should figure out what is the cause of these unpleasant pimples. It's all about blockage of the sebaceous-hair ducts. There may be several reasons for this. The problem can occur if you do not clean the face when the sebaceous glands are too active, then the ducts become blocked, and inflammatory processes occur. Also, the face can become contaminated with ordinary dust, small particles that are in the air, and dead skin particles. With improper or insufficient care, all this remains on the face and leads to a disease such as acne. What it is, almost all teenagers know firsthand. Indeed, during puberty, various hormonal surges occur, as a result - the appearance of acne and acne on the face.
Some more causes of acne
Knowing about acne - what it is and how it most often occurs in adolescents, we need to consider other causes of acne. So, they can occur due to improper functioning of the internal organs of a person, with chronic diseases of the endocrine system, gastrointestinal tract, gallbladder. This disease also appears with improper or excessive consumption of sweet and starchy foods, foods with a large number of various “bad” E-elements. Acne can occur during stressful situations, depression, unstable work of the nervous system. Well, as a consequence of the wrong orilliterate use of facial skin care cosmetics.
Treatment
But are there ways to get rid of acne? Of course! First of all, it is better to prevent the occurrence of this disease by properly caring for the skin of the face from an early age. Washing, using tonics and cleansing masks are the key to clean and beautiful skin. You should pay special attention to nutrition, because the presence of acne on the face also depends on it. It would be nice to get rid of bad habits, such as alcoholism and smoking, because they disrupt the functioning of the body as a whole, and this, as mentioned above, is fraught with the appearance of chronic diseases and, as a result, acne. Among the more radical methods is laser acne treatment, which is also very popular and brings excellent results. But it should be noted that this procedure is not exactly cheap and it is better not to run your he alth to the point where such an intervention may be required.
