Does your acne prevent you from being with friends or family? Many people do not understand how devastating and devastating acne can be. Even well-intentioned comments and suggestions can sting.

But skin is amazing and can change for the better. Do not give up! The first step is to understand what acne is by definition, the different types of acne, what causes acne and, finally, the steps you can take to get rid of the inflammation.

What is acne?
Definition: An inflammatory skin condition characterized by pimples and caused by the accumulation of oil and dead skin cells in your pores. This accumulation results in visible bumps on the skin, which can be painful.
Acne is most common among teenagers, but it can affect anyone at any age. Unfortunately, there is no way to know how long acne will last. It can be quite persistent, staying for months and even years at a time if left to its own devices.
You are most likely to get acne near the mouth, chin, forehead, other parts of the face, chest, upper back and shoulders, because these parts of the body have the most sebaceous (sebaceous) glands.
Acne can wreak havoc on your emotions and self-esteem and can leave permanent scars or discolored patches of skin.
What causes acne?
Your skin naturally sheds dead cells all the time. Some of these come out through the pores, but sometimes they get blocked. Your pores are connected to the sebaceous glands, which produce oil in the skin. These cells mix with the oil and clog your pores.
There is no off button for your sebaceous glands, so the skin continues to pump oil and slough off dead skin cells, pushing the skin up. The infection occurs when the bacterium P. acnes is involved. The result is a lumpy red surface.
Although we know that this process is what causes acne, it is more difficult to identify why it happens to some people than to others. We all have that friend who can do whatever they want - go to bed late, never wash their face, use whatever product they have at hand - and still have clear skin. (Completely incorrect!)
Hormonal changes and parents who have acne are thought to put you at greater risk.
Other factors that could make acne worse include:
Stress
Medical conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Certain medications
Diet
Skin rubbing from tight collars, holding a mobile or carrying a backpack.
Types of acne and symptoms
There are 2 different types of acne: non-inflammatory acne and inflammatory acne.
Non-inflammatory
Blackheads look like tiny black dots where your pores used to be. They are open clogged pores and what you see is a mixture of dead skin cells and oil exposed to the air. Whiteheads are basically the same thing, except that the skin has closed on top, resulting in a small white bump.
Inflammatory
Papules are more commonly known as pimples. Bacteria are present here and the pore walls break down due to the infection, leaving a red lump on the skin. Pustules are pimples/papules with added pus (sorry, not a nice way to say it), giving them a milky white appearance under the skin. Nodules develop deeper in the skin than pustules and papules. They feel like more irritated and larger swellings under the skin. Cysts are large, painful, pus-filled bumps caused by deeper blockage. They appear more below the surface than nodules and are the most likely of all types of acne to leave a scar.
Acne scars and complications
There are two types of scars commonly left by acne and both are related to the healing process.
Pitted (atrophic) scars are exactly what they sound like. These deep impressions in your skin are the result of insufficient collagen formation when the wound heals. There are 3 subtypes of pitted/atrophic scars:
Boxcar: Deep impressions with a flat bottom and defined walls, like a box.
Ice picking: deep impressions that taper to a V-shaped point at the bottom.
Rolling: superficial undulations in the form of waves in the skin.
Hypertrophic scars are the opposite. They are raised scars caused by excess collagen production. Keloid scars are a type of hypertrophic scar. They may continue to grow outside the border of the initial inflammation area for months after the inflammation has subsided.
Change in pigmentation (skin color) is another physical reminder of acne. This can be either hyperpigmentation (darkening of the skin) or hypopigmentation (light bad for the skin).
People with darker skin are more likely to have hypertrophic or keloid scars. People who pick their acne or have darker skin are more likely to experience changes in pigmentation.
Are acne scars permanent?
Will my acne scars disappear? is the burning question that many people ask after the acne has disappeared.
Both scars and pigmentation can be successfully reduced to a minimum and even eradicated with Dermapen Treatments. However, the best course of action is to prevent them from occurring in the first place. It's essential to manage your acne when it occurs while resisting the temptation to pick or pinch your pimples and taking steps to maintain a smooth, healthy-looking glow long after it's gone.
Tips for managing acne
Acne can make you feel completely out of control of your skin. You see it, you don't like it, you don't want it, but you're stuck with it.
Or so it feels. But there are some things you can do to help you manage your acne, regain control of your skin and feel more confident.
Hand hygiene
Don't touch your face unless necessary and when you do (to apply skin care, for example), make sure you wash your hands thoroughly to prevent the spread of harmful microorganisms.
Clean your glasses and phones
Who would have thought that so many things come into contact with your face? Keep your glasses and phone clean and keep your phone away from your face.
Wear breathable clothing and hats
If you suffer from acne on other parts of your body, such as your chest or back, wear loose, breathable fabrics. Avoid wearing a backpack, as this could increase how much you sweat.
Wash oily hair regularly
Keep your hair clean and avoid using products for oily hair if you are prone to breakouts on your forehead. Think about fringes and keep your hair swept off your face.
Avoiding sweating helps keep those pores clean. The sun can also cause the skin to produce more oil, leading to more breakouts. Active ingredients that improve the appearance of the skin, such as retinoids, often require you to stay out of the sun.
Remove makeup
As tempting as it is to collapse into bed at the end of the day, always clean your face every night and sleep with nothing more than the right moisturizer.
Avoid rubbing or squeezing
Rubbing or squeezing pimples can push the infection further down. Apply and remove water after cleaning. Pimples also increase the chance of scarring - ugh!
It shaves easily
Before shaving, wet your hair for a few moments to soften it and use a sharp razor to minimize friction. Gently pass the razor over the skin, trying not to disturb your acne. Look for a suitable shaving cream that does not irritate your skin.
Adopt a twice-daily skin care routine
The products you use on your face have the power to eliminate pimples and the embarrassment they cause for a long-lasting glow.
Dp Dermaceuticals Acne Skin Care Routine
There is nothing more heartbreaking than spending your paycheck on the latest "miracle cure" only to have a bad reaction. Or worse, your hopes are raised after an initial improvement, but then your skin (being the trickster that it is) seems to develop an immunity. Before you know it, the acne is back, worse than ever.
Sound familiar?
The secret is... there is no secret. You don't need another "miracle cure".
What you need is a consistent daily routine that works with your skin and not against it. It's time to make friends again.
Dp Dermaceuticals combines the best of nature with modern science to create products that work for your skin. Use this routine twice a day between Dermapen microneedling treatments to give your suffering skin a chance to recover.
Active against acne
These active ingredients will help hydrate your skin, keep pores flawless and remove bacteria.
Salicylic acid is a powerful beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that unclogs pores.
Licorice root is a natural ingredient that can reduce oil production.
Manuka honey is known for its healing properties and ability to treat a wide range of skin conditions, including acne.
Tyrosinase inhibitors stop the production of melanin and help the appearance of hyperpigmentation caused by acne.
Niacinamide is clinically proven to reduce the appearance of acne, increase skin moisture and improve the appearance of aging skin and uneven tone.
Retinoids minimize your pores and actions act as an exfoliant keeping your pores clean.
Step-by-step skin care routine
Clean (AM and PM) with CLR FOAM CLEANSER
You don't want a cleanser that will dry out your skin, as this can lead to overcompensating oil production and more acne. With Manuka honey for antibacterial properties and salicylic acid, CLR FOAM CLEANSER will gently but effectively unclog pores.
Antimicrobial cleaning (if necessary) with CLINIPREP
Double cleansing works wonders on acne, but you don't want to risk drying out or stripping your skin. CLINIPREP kills bacteria, but does not interfere with cell regeneration and has the same pH as your skin.
Serum (AM + PM) with BRITE LITE
For concentrated repair and hydration, BRITE LITE works wonders. Powerful tyrosinase inhibitors regulate melanin production and fade existing spots and discoloration, including hyperpigmentation left by acne. Licorice root also regulates oil production to limit further breakouts.
Moisturize (AM) with CLR LOTION
It might seem counterintuitive to moisturize an acne-prone face, but it's a crucial step. In addition to salicylic acid that fights acne, LOTIA CLR contains niacinamide that also works to reduce the oils that clog pores.
Corrects (PM) with RETINAL ACTIV
Retinaldehyde (Vitamin A) from RETINAL ACTIVE is the strongest form available without a medical prescription, but it is better tolerated than retinoic acid. It is a good option if you have sensitive or delicate skin. It helps to reduce the appearance of scars, deep wrinkles and atrophy.
Cover and protect (AM) with COVER RECOVER
It's tempting to wear makeup to cover your blemishes, but make sure the coverage you choose doesn't make your acne worse. COVER RECOVER creates a breathable second skin. It's non-comedogenic, which means it won't clog pores, and it's full of vitamins and powerful antioxidants. It is also SFP30 PA+++, essential when using retinoids or BRITE LITE on the skin.
Consult the ACNE SKIN SET to calm and smooth your inflamed skin.

Is it safe to apply active acne with microns?

Your licensed treatment provider may place microacne in stages I-III of active acne. These Dermapen treatments include a home care regimen to support the best results.
How does microneedling work?
The professional device, Dermapen 4™, penetrates the deeper layers of the skin, triggering the body's natural healing response. The skin is oxygenated and the lymphatic drainage activated, regenerating the area affected by acne.
