How to treat acne?
Acne is related to several factors including excessive secretion of sebum, consumption of spicy and stimulating foods, frequent staying up late, familial inheritance, and internal hormone levels. There are various treatment methods for this condition, which primarily depend on the individual's age. Treatment can be challenging during adolescence. If it is post-adolescence, treatment tends to be relatively easier. The most common treatment approach involves oral and topical anti-inflammatory medications, and it's effective to combine these with red and blue light therapy at a formal hospital for faster results. Traditional Chinese medicine facial masks can also be used to reduce local inflammation and decrease sebum secretion. However, acne tends to recur, particularly in adolescents. It is crucial for patients to avoid spicy and stimulating foods, not stay up late, and regularly exercise to reduce adverse hormone levels in the body. (Medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor based on specific circumstances.)
