Why does acne recur repeatedly?

Acne is a disease caused by overactive sebaceous glands and infection of the skin surface with Propionibacterium acnes. The most common symptoms are the appearance of red papules on the face, which are quite painful, and some directly develop pus heads. Although this disease can be completely cured through formal treatment, it has a high recurrence rate, and the main factor of recurrence is related to one's age group, especially during adolescence and in patients with hormonal imbalances. During the treatment period, it is necessary to avoid spicy and irritating foods for a long time, try not to stay up late, avoid anxiety and tension, and refrain from misusing cosmetics, especially greasy products that can clog pores. After recovery, it is advisable to wash the face with cold or cool water, and avoid using hot water.

How to treat acne scar nodules

After complete recovery from acne, most people will form scars or some hypertrophic scar keloids. Generally, during the recovery phase of this condition, scratching or squeezing by hand is somewhat related. Currently, there are no highly effective drugs to completely heal these scars. The most common method is still to visit the dermatology department of a formal hospital and use fractional laser treatment, but the results vary from person to person and require many treatments. If the results are poor and the scar keloids are significantly hypertrophic, drug occlusion can also be used. However, drug occlusion cannot completely eliminate them; it can only make them shrink or become less noticeable. There is still a possibility that they might continue to grow.

How to treat acne scars?

Acne is a disease caused by Propionibacterium acnes infection, with symptoms often more severe on the face. During the treatment of acne, if not handled properly or if the symptoms are severe, scars, pits, or post-acne marks may form after healing. Once these occur, there are no very effective medications available for treatment. It is possible to visit a dermatology department at a reputable hospital and use fractional laser treatment, which has decent effects. However, it may not be resolved in one session and could require many visits, and the costs can be high. Therefore, during the treatment of acne, it is crucial to follow a standard treatment regimen, avoid squeezing or picking at acne to prevent secondary infection, maintain a light diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and refrain from staying up late.

Is acne the same as pimples?

Acne is a medical term, commonly known as pimples or acne. These two are the same disease, caused by the infection of Propionibacterium acnes, and are related to one's own active sebaceous glands, eating spicy and stimulating food, or frequently staying up late. Once diagnosed with this condition, it is important to receive systematic and formal treatment to prevent recurrence. Treatment can include oral and topical medications from a dermatology department in a formal hospital, and combining this with red and blue light therapy may yield better results. Avoid scratching or popping the acne, as this can lead to scarring or pits. After recovery, it is crucial to maintain a proper diet and lifestyle over the long term, avoiding staying up late and consuming spicy and stimulating foods to prevent the condition from recurring.
