Every day we encounter a large number of acne sufferers, the vast majority of whom are unaware of the triggers of acne, not to mention how to control it in terms of diet and lifestyle habits. Therefore, the following is a small summary that we hope will help.
1, acne possible triggers.
a. Excessive stress, sleeping too late and emotional anxiety.
b, intake of too much sugar, dairy products, starch, fried food, fat, spicy and heavy food.
c, no good skin care habits, incomplete cleaning of the skin, clogged pores. Or over-cleaning, washing the face 3-5 times a day, resulting in lack of oil and water in the skin, instead of inducing excessive secretion of sebaceous glands.
d. Self-cleaning acne with a row of needles or squeezing acne, causing pore infection, dermal inflammation and scarring.
e. Endocrine changes. Some women have increased acne before their periods, along with dysmenorrhea, etc. They should check for sex hormone six, and polycystic ovary syndrome.
2, acne patients diet strategy.
a. Forbidden foods: fatty, sweet and greasy, sweet drinks, fried foods, fat and dairy products.
b, suitable food: seafood (rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, can reduce the secretion of sebum, anti-inflammatory), red vegetables (such as carrots and tomatoes, both should be cooked, otherwise not easily absorbed), high-fiber vegetables (such as celery, cabbage, etc.).
3, acne skin care.
a. Clean the skin carefully and use a face wash containing scrubbing particles if necessary to reduce the clogging of follicular pores. It is not easy to wash your face more than 3 times.
b. After cleaning, you must use an oil control and moisturizing cream, otherwise the skin will secrete more oil under the effect of negative feedback.
c. If there are more inflammatory acne and sensitive skin, a mask with soothing effects should be used regularly.
d. Acne skin is prone to acne and scarring under the action of UV rays, so be sure to use sunscreen. In winter, you can choose a day cream with sun protection factor, and in the rest of the season, you must apply sunscreen externally, and it is recommended to use medical skin care products.
4. Application of topical medications for acne.
Topical medications commonly used for acne, including Bansai (benzoyl peroxide) which dissolves keratin and sterilizes; Ansus (isotretinoin); Daphne (adapalene), etc. are all somewhat irritating. If you apply it directly on the affected area and massage it in, it will cause irritation such as erythema and edema, which in turn will cause the aggravation of “acne”. Therefore, it is important to learn the correct usage.
a. Apply an oil-controlling moisturizing cream for acne on the entire face.
b. Apply the medication to the left hand at the tiger’s mouth in a thin circular motion.
c. Dip your right index finger into the medication and dab it on the lesions one by one.
d.Apply sunscreen to the whole face (acne skin is very afraid of the sun).
5.Medical beauty program.
a, open blackheads and closed whiteheads: fruit acid resurfacing.
b, inflammatory papules, enlarged pores, seborrhea: intense pulse light; red and blue light; photodynamic.
c, persistent erythema of acne: intense pulsed light; pulsed dye laser.
d, acne scarring: CO2 fractional laser.
