Multicausality in acne and the role that hormonal changes during puberty, become difficult any attempt to choose the therapeutic dermatologist because whatever it is, the improvement was observed over time. It sometimes happens that when you start antiacneicos treatment, initially the patient feels that their skin disease worsened, so this situation must be perceived by the treating professional to prevent dropout of the patient, especially when it comes to a teenager. The products are applied to these cures must develop at least three functions:

1. Desescamante function: similar to having a “peeling” moderate (function also called “keratolytic” moderate), through which the channel through which would have to move the fat produced by the gland is free of obstruction and has exit. This activity causes mild skin irritation. This observation is very important, as has been shown that most of the products used to treat acne, have a salutary effect and produce a skin irritant action, practitioners who prescribe should warn their patients about the effects undesirable side. The most effective components, regardless of the treatment that your dermatologist can prescribe are as follows:

• sulfur and / or salicylic acid
• azelaic acid at moderate concentrations
• benzoyl peroxide at moderate concentrations
• glycolic acid at moderate concentrations
• exfoliating microbeads as part of cleaning fluids

2. Anti-seborrheic Function: also called sebum-regulating or sebostatic, with which it seeks to reduce excessive sebum secretion that characterizes youthful skin acne ices. There are several components moderately effective, among which are:

• sulfur (now less used than before)

Usually indicates water and soap (preferably one with action Anti-seborrheic dermatological product) and then dry completely once cleared the area.

2) Dietary Change: Reducing foods that tend to cause skin reactions in young people. Foods that should be banned are the chocolate and strawberries, but it should be noted that as previously stated, the food is only one factor that interacts with others. Read the rest of this entry »
