Facial breakouts and closed mouth are both classified as facial acne, a chronic inflammatory disease of the sebaceous glands of hair follicles. Current treatments include topical medication, oral medication, and physical therapy.
1. Topical medication: Mild acne can be treated with topical medication, commonly used ones include adapalene gel, benzoyl peroxide gel, clindamycin gel and so on.
2. Oral medication: For patients with more pronounced inflammation, oral antibacterial and anti-inflammatory medications such as clarithromycin, minocycline and doxycycline can be considered. Patients with cystic nodules can also consider oral isotretinoin for treatment.
3. Physical therapy: patients with mild to moderate lesions can be treated with red and blue light, which destroys Propionibacterium acnes through optical effects to reduce the inflammatory response.
It is recommended that patients go to a regular medical institution and receive the appropriate treatment as prescribed by the doctor to avoid delaying the condition. The above medications should be used in accordance with medical advice.
