What is acne
Acne is a persistent, inflamed skin disorder that most commonly affects the face, back, chest, and upper arms and results in patches and pimples. Acne is formed as a result of clogged hair follicles beneath the skin. The dead skin cells and sebum oil that helps prevent skin from drying out the clog pores causes outbreaks of lesions which are also known as pimples or zits.
Although it can happen at any age, it frequently happens during puberty when the sebaceous glands are active. Male hormones released by the adrenal glands in both males and females stimulate the glands, which then create oil. This inflammatory acne that affects the skin's sebaceous glands and hair follicles are also home to fine hairs.
Although it is not harmful, skin scars may be a result of this condition.

What is severe acne?

Acne treatments
New Beauty Acne Treatment
The Acne Treatment is a new treatment from New Beauty for skin that is prone to breakouts. First, the dual spiral suction plus drainage technology exfoliates dead skin cells and clears clogged pores at the same time, reducing acne infection and inflammation. The face is then treated with a moisturising serum to control sebum output and encourage collagen synthesis.
Future breakouts of acne are less likely if there is insufficient oil. Acne, blemishes, blackheads, whiteheads, pockmarks, enlarged pores, dry skin, acne scars, and dull skin tone are all goals of the acne treatment.

Benefits of this treatment
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 moisturising 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 moisturised, 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.

How does it work?
Step 1: The consultant will outline the procedure's steps and theoretical underpinnings. The beauty therapist then performs a patch test to make sure the probe hasn't caused any irritation.
Step 2: The vacuum microdermabrasion and deep cleaning process is started by the twin spiral suction/drainage probe. Exfoliation is used to remove dead skin cells, oil, and grime that have been trapped in the pores and on the surface of the skin. The acne inflammation and infection should gradually subside if the pollutants are removed.
Step 3: To balance the water-to-oil ratio, calm the oil glands from future overproduction of oil, and promote collagen growth, the moisturising serum is injected into the unclogged skin. This results in treating acne, fewer new outbreaks, and a finer complexion for the skin.

Topical medications
You will typically begin therapy with a mix of topical treatments for mild to moderate or moderate to severe acne. Azelaic acid, retinoids, antibiotics, and combination creams and gels are some of these drugs.
Benzoyl peroxide
As an antiseptic, benzoyl peroxide helps to lessen the amount of microorganisms on the skin's surface. This substance is thought to function by eliminating the acne-causing bacteria. It also has an anti-inflammatory action, which helps to lessen the number of whiteheads and blackheads.
Typically, benzoyl peroxide is sold as a cream or gel. You can try benzoyl peroxide-containing over-the-counter medications for mild acne, or your doctor may advise you to do so. To effectively treat acne, it often takes at least four weeks of consistent use.
Numerous well-known skincare companies also produce products using benzoyl peroxide, albeit at a lower concentration.
Antibiotics
These destroy extra skin bacteria and lessen inflammation and redness. The germs that can infect clogged hair follicles on the skin are also destroyed by topical medicines.
You might use a retinoid and an antibiotic together for the first few months of treatment, applying the antibiotic in the morning and the retinol in the evening. They can be administered once or twice a day as a lotion or gel.
Topical antibiotics are typically not advised as a stand-alone acne treatment due to the danger of antibiotic resistance in skin bacteria. Antibiotic resistance may be prevented by combining benzoyl peroxide with a topical antibiotic. To lessen the possibility of antibiotic resistance arising, benzoyl peroxide is frequently added to antibiotics.

Oral medications
Anti-androgen agents
If oral antibiotics are ineffective, women and adolescent girls may be prescribed the medication spironolactone (Aldactone). It functions by preventing androgen hormones from having an impact on the oil glands. Painful menstruation and sore breasts are potential side effects.
Isotretinoin
A vitamin A derivative is sotretinoin. If other treatments haven't worked for someone's moderate or severe acne, it might be given. Depression, serious birth abnormalities, and inflammatory bowel disease are among the possible side effects of oral isotretinoin.

Therapies
Light therapy
Numerous light-based therapies have been tested, with varying degrees of success. The majority will necessitate numerous trips to your doctor's office. To identify the best procedure, light source, and dose, more research is required.
Chemical peel
A chemical solution, such as salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or retinoic acid, is applied repeatedly during this process. This procedure treats minor acne. It might make the skin look better, but the improvement is usually temporary and requires more treatments.
Steroid injection
A steroid medication can be injected directly into nodular and cystic lesions to treat them. Rapid recovery and a reduction in discomfort are the outcomes of this therapy. Skin thinning and discolouration in the treated region are possible side effects.

Skin care tips
1) Wash your face with mild soap or a gentle cleanser twice a day with your hands. 2) Maintain a good skin care routine. After perspiring and up to twice a day, gently cleanse your face. Pick a cleaner that is soft and non-abrasive. Apply it using your fingertips to avoid irritating your skin, as using washcloths, sponges, and other tools to scrub can. 3) Use only non-comedogenic cosmetics, sunscreen, skin, and hair care items. Most folks don't break out from using these products. 4) Maintain your treatment plan. Frequently experimenting with new acne remedies can aggravate your skin and result in breakouts. Give your medication time to take effect. Before you notice a difference, it can take a few weeks to a few months. 5) Before going to bed, take off your makeup. Without exceptions Use a makeup-removing towelette if you are too exhausted to wash your face. Just make sure the towelette is non-comedogenic. 6) Put your hands away. Touching your face frequently during the day might make acne worse. Although it may be tempting, picking, popping, or squeezing your acne will make it take longer to heal up and raise your risk for post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which causes dark patches and scarring.
