ACNE HELP

Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. It is characterized by whiteheads, blackheads, and pimples, and can occur anywhere on the body including the face, chest, and back. Acne can cause inflammation, redness, and scarring if not properly treated.

There are different types of acne such as inflammatory acne, non-inflammatory acne, and cystic acne.

Inflammatory acne can include whiteheads, blackheads, papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts.

Non-inflammatory acne can include whiteheads and blackheads.

Cystic acne is a severe form of acne which is characterized by large and deep spots on the skin, which can be painful and can lead to scarring.

Grades of acne range from mild to severe, with mild acne being characterized by whiteheads and blackheads, and severe acne being characterized by large and painful cystic acne.

Effective ingredients for acne include benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, and retinoids, which can help reduce inflammation, kill bacteria, and promote skin cell turnover. Our favourite acne fighting products are “Active serum” and “Rejudicare retinol”

Skin treatments for acne can include topical creams, oral medications, light therapy, and chemical peels. Our fire and ice facial is great for reducing acne and helping to clear skin! 

It is important to take steps in order to avoid acne such as keeping your skin clean, cleaning makeup brushes, and eating a balanced diet. Additionally, it is important to see a skin specialist or dermatologist if an individual notices that their acne is becoming severe or persistent, as they can recommend more targeted and effective treatment options.
