What is Acne?

Acne is a skin condition visible on the face, chest or back in the form of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), red bumps, nodules and cysts.

Acne is caused because of changes in hormone levels, which in turn increases secretion of sebum (oil). This sebum along with dead cells block the pores in the skin. This allows bacteria to multiply, resulting in inflammation and acne. Acne is common among individuals between 15 – 45 years of age.

What causes Acne?

Common causes include:

  • Hormonal imbalance
  • Stress
  • Hot and humid environment
  • Applying oily/oil-based products
  • Certain oral medications

What are
Acne Marks and Scars?

Cystic and nodular acne, popping or squeezing of pimples and zits, or untreated acne often leave behind dark marks and pits. These are called acne scars.

What is the Basic Treatment for
Acne Marks and Scars?

The primary treatments for Acne and Acne Scars consist of:

  • Oral medications
  • Topically-applied cream

Some of these medications control the secretion of sebum and help reduce bacterial inflammation and hence, control active acne. Other medications work to reduce marks and scars. However, it is important to note that these medications differ based on an individual’s condition and medical history. Therefore, it is best that these are prescribed by a qualified dermatologist after a detailed examination.

What are the
Advanced Treatments for

Acne and Acne Scars?

Sometimes, to help resolve chronic acne, Dr. Sejal prescribes external interventions that are proven and scientific.

A medical clean-up procedure includes extraction of comedones (whiteheads and blackheads) with a comedone extractor, after exposing the treatment area to steam or peels. Know more about this procedure here.

Medical or Chemical Peels are solutions that when applied to the skin, carry out a controlled damage to the skin, which in turn helps reduce sebum production and bacterial inflammation. These also help get to rid of dead skin and boost generation of new skin cells. One can expect a reduction in active acne as well as marks and scars with this treatment. Know more about this procedure here.

This is one of the most effective treatments for acne scar reduction. The process employs a microneedling device like dermapen or dermaroller to induce a controlled injury in the treatment area. This process causes an increase in collagen generation in the treated area and hence, when the skin heals, it is smoother and suppler. Know more here.

Skin Resurfacing with Growth Factor Serums. In this procedure immediately after a microneedling of the affected area a natural serum with growth factors is applied. This helps in accelerated healing of the scars and often yields better results than only microneedling. You can read more about this here.

In this procedure, a Q switched ND YAG laser is used to lighten spots and marks left behind by acne. The laser beam is extremely precise and hence, targets only the spots and marks while leaving the rest of the skin unaffected. Know more here.

For very deep scars, sometimes, the best solution is the use of dermal fillers. Know more here.
