What causes acne?
Acne is caused by clogged pores or hair follicles. Your hair is held in place by tiny tubes called hair follicles. A blockage develops when your hair follicles contain an excessive amount of material. You can get pore blockage from:
Sebum
an oily substance that acts as your skin's barrier of defense.
Bacteria
On your skin, tiny levels of germs naturally exist. Your pores may become clogged if you have too much bacteria.
Stress
Although stress cannot start acne, it can make it worse. Studies findings imply that as stress increases, acne severity rises as well.
Dead skin cells
Your skin sheds its cells frequently to make place for new ones to develop. Dead skin cells that are released by your skin might lodge in your hair follicles.
Nicotine
According to one study, smoking may contribute to acne in some women. The women in this study exhibited visible whiteheads and blackheads that frequently covered a sizable portion of their faces. A few people also got acne.
A pimple is produced when chemicals clog your pores and block your hair follicle. You experience swelling and pain as a result of this causing inflammation. Inflammation can also be seen on the skin as skin discoloration, such as the redness surrounding a zit.

How is acne diagnosed?
A dermatological examination by a medical professional can reveal acne. In order to learn more about your symptoms, the doctor will carefully examine your skin during this examination.
There are situations when what appears to be acne is not. While uncommon, what appears to be acne may instead be another disease. For instance, some individuals confuse acne inversa, also known as hidradenitis suppurativa, with regular acne. This condition's treatment is different from acne.
They might also inquire about factors that increase the likelihood of acne, such as:
Do you feel stressed out?
Do you have a history of acne in your family?
Do you get breakouts throughout your menstrual cycle, if you're a woman?
What medicines are you currently taking?
Where on your skin acne first emerges
What medications have you already tried?
The start of the breakouts

Benefits of the Acne Treatment by New Beauty
Removes Dead Skin Cells
Excess dead skin cells are removed using dual spiral suction and drainage technology to keep pores from becoming clogged in the future.
Hydrating Essence
A medical-grade moisturizing serum may penetrate the deepest layers of the skin to nourish and hydrate the skin tissues while also soothing acne-prone skin. Additionally, it soothes the sebaceous glands to stop overproduction of oil.
Visible Results
You will have less acne breakouts, acne scarring, and various types of acne as the treatment goes on. Watch as your skin becomes healthier, more moisturized, and lighter with less of an oily sheen!
Non-invasive Treatment
The acne treatment is non-invasive, so there is no need for oral antibiotics, surgery, incisions, injections, or acne medication. Most persons with moderate to severe acne, according to our in-house beauticians, are candidates for this treatment.
12
Topical medications
Your doctor might advise you to treat your skin with topical acne medications.
Topical acne medication can be applied topically to the skin in the same way as lotion or moisturizer would. Products containing one of the following substances could be among them:
Benzoyl peroxide
This is a leave-on gel or wash that is sold over-the-counter under the brand names Clearasil, Stridex, and PanOxyl. It takes aim at the surface bacteria that frequently makes acne worse. Your skin won't be as irritated by wash formulas and lower concentrations.
Salicylic acid
This is sold over-the-counter for acne as a lotion or cleanser. It aids in removing the skin's outermost layer of damage. Dead skin cells are removed by salicylic acid, which keeps your hair follicles from clogging.
Azelaic acid
This is a natural acid that can be found in several grains, including rye, barley, and wheat. It lessens edoema while also eradicating skin-surface bacteria.
Retinoids (vitamin A derivatives)
Blackheads, whiteheads, and clogged pores are the precursors to acne. Retinol, which is non-prescription and found in products like Retin-A, Tazorac, and Differin, helps break them up and prevent clogged pores.
The majority of persons are eligible for retinoid therapy. In order to stop the development of new pimples, you must apply these medications to the full area of acne-prone skin. Before seeing effects, you frequently need to use them for several months.
Antibiotics
The surface bacteria that aggravate and fuel acne are controlled by topical medicines like erythromycin and clindamycin. Benzoyl peroxide increases the potency of antibiotics.
Dapsone
Topical gel called Dapsone (Aczone) also has antibacterial qualities. It manages aggravated acne.

Oral medication
Antibiotics
Infection-related acne is treated with antibiotics. Tetracycline, minocycline, and doxycycline are common antibiotics for acne. For mild to severe acne, they are excellent.
Isotretinoin (Amnesteem, Claravis and Sotret)
An oral retinoid is isotretinoin. Oil gland size decreases caused by isotretinoin contribute to acne development.
Contraceptives
Certain contraceptives may occasionally be helpful for women and AFAB individuals who suffer from acne. Several different birth control pill varieties have received FDA approval for treating acne. Estrostep, Beyaz, Ortho Tri-Cyclen, and Yaz are a few examples of brand names. The main AFAB sex hormone, oestrogen, and progesterone are both present in these pills (a natural form of steroid that helps regulate menstruation).
Hormone therapy
Some acne sufferers find hormone therapy useful, particularly if their breakouts occur during menstruation or have irregular periods brought on by too much androgen (a hormone). Low-dose oestrogen and progesterone birth control pills are one form of hormone therapy, as is the drug spironolactone, which prevents the action of several hormones at the level of your hair follicles and oil glands.
14
Additional acne therapies
Steroids
Injecting steroids into big nodules can treat severe acne by reducing inflammation.
Chemical peels
With this procedure, the top layer of old skin is removed using specialised chemicals. The top layer of skin can be removed to reveal fresh, smoother skin that can minimise acne scarring.

How do antibiotics treat acne?

preventing bacterial influx into your body

Home Remedies for acne treatments
Tea tree oil
Since the bacteria that causes acne is naturally antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, tea tree oil may be able to eradicate it.
Due to its anti-inflammatory characteristics, tea tree oil can also aid in reducing the inflammation and redness of acne.
Aloe vera
Due to its inherent antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, aloe vera may lessen the look of acne and stop breakouts. Sugar, zinc, and amino acids are all present in aloe vera, which makes it a superb skin moisturiser and protector.
It is especially beneficial for those whose skin becomes dry after using various acne treatments. This can be considered a safe option for sensitive skin.
Green tea
High levels of catechins, a class of polyphenol antioxidants, are present in green tea. Some acne sufferers have too much sebum (natural body oils) and not enough antioxidants in their pores.
Chemicals and waste materials that can harm healthy cells are broken down by the body with the aid of antioxidants.
Honey
Honey has been used to treat skin disorders for hundreds of years because it is rich in antioxidants that can unclog pores. Utilizing unpasteurized honey, such as manuka honey, is crucial when using honey to treat various illnesses. To be successful, the honey you use must still have its beneficial microorganisms.
This will not just improve acne but also boost your immune system, reduce swelling and redness, and speed the healing of blemishes.

How long does acne take to clear up?
Acne breakouts can typically take one to two weeks to go away on their own. It may take up to several months or even years for the acne to clear up thoroughly.
Depending on your age, the type and severity of your acne, and how much work you're prepared to put in, your doctor will propose a treatment plan.
