What Is Acne?
If you are one of the thousands that will purchase acne treatment
products this year, before you invest your money, you need to know several things about what
is happening to your face, your chest and your body.
Often, individuals blame the acne on their body on puberty. But,
it can be caused by many more things as well. For some, it is just this, puberty.
For others there are other conditions that may be causing the acne
to appear. If you take the time to understand why you have acne, you are likely to learn how
you can treat your acne.
Acne is an infection on your skin. Normally, it happens because bacteria get into your pores where
it breeds. Once the skin becomes irritated by this, it will then react in the form of sores. This
is the acne that you see on your face.
Acne is generally caused by the occurrence of the bacteria on your face and increased amounts of
oils on the face which make it a welcoming place for bacteria to go and hide.
- These two things are generally the case for most types of
acne. But, there are different things that cause them to happen. This is what you need to
learn in order to know how to treat your bacteria.
The oils that are being secreted at high levels may be due to hormone imbalances that are
caused by such things as puberty, stress, health issues and other conditions.
- Bacteria can get onto the face from a poor level of keeping
your face and your skin properly cleaned.
- Bacteria can feed on the dead skin cells that are not properly
exfoliated away, making this a more likely target for growth.
- Eating a poor diet can help to encourage oily skins as well as
lowers the body’s ability to fight off the infections that it is facing.
To learn what is causing your acne problems, you should carefully
think about what is happening in your life and improve anything that you may see as an obvious
reason why your body may be facing these factors.
In most cases, you will need to seek out the help of your family
doctor or a dermatologist when it comes to determining your body’s reasons for over producing oil
secretion in your skin.
This can be done through a blood screening or in some cases your
doctor may not need to do anything to realize that this problem needs to be addressed.
These are the first steps in getting rid of your acne.
