The most effective drug ingredients to cure acne are mainly herbal medicines that clear heat and detoxify the body. If cosmetics do not contain these ingredients, it is unlikely to cure acne. Other contraceptives contain anti-androgenic ingredients, which have a temporary effect on some female acne sufferers, but then can be re-emerged.
In addition, there is no scientific evidence that acne is caused by mites, so it is not scientific to simply remove mites.

Some patients use dermatitis equal mainly for the treatment of eczema dermatitis to treat acne, which not only aggravates acne but also leads to hormonal dermatitis on the face.

12.What are the drugs that can cause or aggravate acne?
Corticosteroids are commonly referred to as hormones, including androgens such as testosterone and corticosteroids such as prednisone and dexamethasone. Among them, acne-like rashes caused by corticosteroids are the most common, usually occurring 1 to 2 months after taking the medication, and have two characteristics.
(1) The papules are relatively uniform in size, red or skin-colored, and in severe cases, pustules can occur at the top of the papules, with obvious erythema around the rash, which can also occur on the trunk in addition to the face, with the upper part of the forehead and back being the most common.
(2) The rash may subside naturally after discontinuation of the drug.
Halogen compounds include iodine, bromine, chlorine, etc. These compounds often cause occupational pimple-like rash, which mostly occurs in personnel who have long-term contact with these compounds.
Anti-tuberculosis drugs such as isoniazid and sodium p-aminosalicylate.
Anti-epileptic drugs such as sodium phenytoin, trimethoprim, phenobarbital, etc.
Vitamins such as vitamin B12 taken internally or in combination with vitamin B6.
Contraceptive drugs such as contraceptive 0 and 1 containing norethindrone. This type of drug-induced rash is characterized by: a period of time after stopping the drug is often more serious than during the drug.

Although most acne can fade gradually after stopping the medication, timely access to a specialist and effective internal and external medication can make the rash fade faster or reduce scar formation.
14.What damage does acne do to the body?
Acne formed by the blockage of the sebaceous gland mouth of the hair follicle can develop into inflammatory papules, pustules, nodules, cysts, powdery tumors, cysts and form skin damage such as pigmentation marks, enlarged pores, and even scars.
(1) Whitehead acne: The mouth of the sebaceous gland of the hair follicle is blocked by keratinocytes, and keratinized material and sebum fill it and do not communicate with the outside world, forming a closed acne that looks like a slightly raised whitehead.
(2) Blackheads: The follicular sebaceous glands are clogged with keratinized material and sebum, and the openings are open to the outside world, forming open pimples that appear as large or small black dots on the surface.
(3) Papules: This is the most basic damage of acne. In the case of blockage of the follicular sebaceous gland opening, a hypoxic environment is formed in the follicular sebaceous gland, and anaerobic Propionibacterium acnes proliferates, breaking down sebum, producing chemotactic factors, and inflammatory papules occur as a result of the aggregation of white blood cells, so these papules are inflammatory damage.
(4) Pustules: This is the further development and aggravation of inflammatory papules. A large number of neutrophils in the sebaceous glands of the hair follicles gather and engulf the Propionibacterium acnes and an inflammatory reaction occurs, and a large number of pus cells accumulate to form pustules. This condition is prone to the formation of scars after healing, mainly depressed scars.
(5) Nodules: On the basis of pustules, a large amount of keratin, sebum, and pus cells are stored in the follicular sebaceous glands, causing structural destruction of the follicular sebaceous glands and the formation of red nodules high above the skin surface, with obvious infiltration at the base, flushing and pressure pain when touched.
(6) Cyst: On the basis of the nodule, a large number of pus cells accumulate in the structure of the follicular sebaceous gland. There is both pus, bacterial residue, sebum and keratinized material, and inflammatory infiltrate. It completely destroys the structure of the hair follicle sebaceous gland and feels cyst-like to the touch, and pus and blood can be spilled when squeezed.
(7) Powder tumor: On the basis of cyst, all the contents in the follicular sebaceous gland gradually dry up and inflammation is reduced, forming greasy beanbag-like material. When the pressure inside the sac is too high will form small holes on the surface, from which can be extruded beanbag-like or cheese-like material, touch as a cyst-like tumor.
(8) Scarring: Scarring is the most serious damage of acne (pimples). The severe damage above the inflammatory papules is caused by the destruction of the dermal tissue and the repair of the connective tissue after healing, thus forming scars. Scars are a repair response of the body to tissue damage. When the damage to the skin reaches deep into the dermis, causing a large epidermal defect, the epidermis of the area cannot be regenerated and will be replaced by fibroblasts, collagen and proliferating blood vessels of the dermis, thus appearing as scars. Once a scar is formed, it does not fade easily on its own.
15.How can acne patients pay attention to their diet?
(1) Avoid eating high-fat foods. High-fat foods can generate a lot of heat, which makes internal heat worse. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid food such as lard, cream, fatty meat, pig brain, pig liver, pig kidney, eggs, etc.
(2) Avoid eating fishy things. Fishy hair things can often cause allergies and lead to aggravation of the disease, often make the sebaceous glands of chronic inflammation to expand and difficult to get rid of. Therefore, fishy things must be avoided, especially seafood, such as sea eel, sea shrimp, sea crab, scallops, etc.. The hot meat is also a hairy product, such as mutton, dog meat, etc., can make the body heat congestion and aggravate the disease.
(3) Avoid high sugar food. When the body eats foods high in sugar, the metabolism of the body will be exuberant and the secretion of sebaceous glands will increase, thus making acne appear continuously. Therefore, patients should not eat foods high in sugar, such as white sugar, icing sugar, brown sugar, glucose, chocolate, ice cream, etc. Avoid eating spicy foods. These foods are hot in nature and can easily raise the fire after eating them. Acne sufferers have internal heat, so eating these foods is undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire. Avoid taking supplements. Some parents are afraid that their children will not have enough nutrition during the developmental period, so they desperately try to take tonic. This is actually a wrong idea. Most of the tonic products are hot, which makes the internal heat more intense and more likely to induce acne.
