Controlling Acne
Return to Top of Page/Acne Products
Acne is a disorder of the sebaceous glands which secrete oil
onto the skin and which lie in the dermis, the layer of skin just under the
epidermis (surface layer). Acne is caused when dried sebum, flaked skin and
bacteria collect in skin pores forming a "plug" which blocks the oil from
flowing up through the pores. If this blockage is incomplete, a blackhead
appears; if the blockage is complete, a whitehead appears. At the same time,
bacteria can grow in the plugged pores, further irritating the condition. These
irritated blackheads and whiteheads produce what is commonly known as acne. If
left untreated, or if the infection and irritation gets worse, an abscess may
form.
When the pores are blocked and pimples and pus-filled
blisters (pustules) form without abscesses, the condition is called superficial
acne; when inflamed pimples erupt downward into the underlying skin and
pus-filled cysts appear or develop into abscesses, the condition is called deep
acne. In deep acne, the infection may spread, causing red, raised, inflamed
areas, cysts and abscesses which may rupture or leave scars.
The lifecycle of a pimple can be up to eight weeks without
treatment.
The strategy is to start with exfoliation of the skin.
Exfoliation lifts and removes the top layer of dead skin cells, revealing fresher, smoother skin, and deep cleans the pores
keeping them free of debris which can build up and cause acne.
