What You Need to Know About Acne Skin Care Part I
Adult acne starts with an understanding of how a pimple forms. Cleansing skin care can only work by understanding the cycle.
How does a Pimple Form? Clogged pores, oil, and bacteria are three of the main causes of acne and according to leading dermatologists, the more points you can intervene at during the acne cycle, the better results you'll get.
Step 1 - The pore, which is also the opening of the hair follicle, becomes clogged with dead skin cells, dirt, and oil.
Step 2 - Acne bacteria feed off the oil in the clogged pore and literally attract white blood cells to the area.
Step 3 - Your body then responds with inflammation that causes the redness, swelling, and pain associated with the pimple.
Do you ever wonder why some of us only get blackheads while others get full-blown breakouts? Genetics, hormones, environmental factors, and immunity all play a role in the development of acne. The inflammation response that causes a pimple is really our bodies' immune response to foreign material (sebum) which penetrates into the dermis. The greater the immune response, the more severe the acne becomes.
Adult acne takes the form of one of five types, which each require their own unique cleansing skin care regimen that are uniquely tailored to their adult acne type.
1. Blackheads and whiteheads are both types of comedones, which is another term used to describe a clogged pore. These are most common in what's call the T-Zone, which is comprise of the forehead, nose, and chin.
2. A pustule is a lesion that contains a mixture of white blood cells, dead skin cells, and bacteria, otherwise known as pus.
3. Papules are another type of blemish but these are solid raised bumps - not squeezable. Papules lend a rough feel to the skin and are caused by a local reaction to the acne bacteria that causes acne. These are most common on the cheeks and along the jaw line.
4. Like a papules, a nodule is a solid lesion. A nodule is characterized like inflammation and this type of blemish extends into deeper layers of the skin that usually cause pain and scarring.
5. Cysts occur deep in the skin and contain pus. They are larger than pustules and are usually severely inflamed. They may be very painful and often result in scarring.
