Many patients are often found in the clinic to have many misconceptions about acne treatment, which affects the timing as well as the effectiveness of the patient’s treatment. To summarize, there are the following points: 1. Some people believe that acne cannot be treated or does not require treatment: this understanding is wrong. In fact, acne is not only treatable, but the treatment is not difficult. Early and timely treatment can not only achieve better results, but also reduce the impact of acne on facial beauty.
2. Some people think that acne can be treated by squeezing it on your own. This perception is also wrong. The vast majority of acne lesions cannot be squeezed. Not only will squeezing not improve acne symptoms, but it will also affect the efficacy of further treatment. In addition, squeezing will also affect the aesthetics of the face. This will make further treatment very difficult.
3. Some people think that topical cosmetics can treat acne. This perception is also wrong. Acne is a disease. It is undeniable that some cosmetics can have a certain effect on acne, but there is still a big gap between them and drug treatment. Therefore, cosmetics cannot treat acne very well.
4. Some people think that acne can be treated by purchasing medication on their own. This perception is also wrong. Acne is clinically composed of many types, and different types of acne are treated in different ways. For patients with limited medical knowledge, it is difficult to properly select the right medication. Improper treatment is often seen clinically to cause acne lesions to worsen.
