COMEDONAL ACNE: CAUSES & REMEDIES
The making of acne is a three-fold process where dead skin cells, sebum, and bacteria make up the ingredients. This cocktail of mayhem needs a specific mixture to create havoc in your skin. A specific mixture? Yes because is normal to have dead skin cells in your pores, it naturally falls off. It is normal for your skin to produce natural sebum, and it is also normal to have the presence of bacteria on the top of your skin surface. Then what’s abnormal here? The disaster starts when your skin produces excess sebum, which sticks the dead skin cells together to trap bacteria and form a mixture in your pores. It's indeed an uninvited guest in your skin.
The severity and treatment of acne depend on which type of acne you have. There are various categories of acne, and for each one the treatment is different. Comedonal acne is one type of mild acne. Hold on and scroll down to know more about Comedonal acne:
HOW IS COMEDONAL ACNE & HOW DOES HAPPENS?
The most common type of acne belongs to the non-inflammatory group. The flesh-coloured bumps on the skin form close to the surface of the skin. The name Comedonal came from the word COMEDEO, which means PORES. Enclosed pores refer to comedonal acne. Blackheads & Whiteheads are the most common types of comedonal acne, as they have blocked the pores of the skin. The skin-colour bumps on the skin are whiteheads and the darker coloured ones are blackheads. Blackheads are formed when the skin over the comedone opens up and exposes the melanin in the sebum to the air. That causes oxidation, which turns it into a dark-coloured comedone.
HOW TO GET RID OF THEM?
The very first remedy you think of is to pop it out. Isn’t it right? But, this step will make it worse as this acne is non-inflammatory and lies beneath the surface of the skin, squeezing them to pop up will push the dirt and bacteria into your skin. You must be wondering what to do, how to get rid of them (P.S-don’t stress out, as stress will make it worse). Patience, proper skincare, and lifestyle is the key to getting rid of them.
