Acne - a skin disease
Wrong to consider acne only aesthetic defect. Acne - a skin disease. In medicine it is called acne or acne.
There are different stages of acne: light, medium and heavy. Depending on the stage dermatologists selected individual therapy and care for each patient.
Treatment of acne - a lengthy process. It can take several months or even years. Clinical improvement comes only a few months. It is impossible to drink a pill, buy a new cream and wake up with a clean face.
Causes of Acne
Causes and triggers can be combined in different ways for each person. Proper treatment of acne may take more than one month. It's a long process.
According to dermatologist Nazarov R. N.Most accurately the causes of acne are described in the monograph Samtsova A. IN. "Acne and akneformnye dermatoses".

If you do not search for and elimination of the causes, acne can come back again and again.
My reason
I subscribed to oral contraceptivesI saw "Aknekutan" and "Roaccutane", which are considered the most effective treatment for acne. Did cleaning and peeling at the cosmetician.
Two years later, the acne came back again. Dermatologist first sent me to get tested. After four months of delivery of analyzes it turned out that I have chronic tonsillitis, which can not be cured.
Chronic tonsillitis - an inflammation of the tonsils, which are located in the throat. In healthy tonsils protect the body from infections, tonsillitis but poison. I did not hurt a sore throat and did not know what my throat can affect the skin condition.
I removed the tonsils, and a month later, all of inflammation on his face gone. Chronic tonsillitis has been a precipitating factor.
TO. m. n., a dermatologist Nazarov R. N.In 50% of the causes of acne - genetics and chronic tonsillitis.
By the way physicians treat
First and chief, to which you want to go with acne - it is a dermatologist. During the consultation, he assigns the care and refer the patient to the delivery of the analysis and testing of the organism to other doctors.
I learned from a dermatologist, to what doctors he refers patients with acne.
Doctor | What could be wrong |
ENT | Chronic tonsillitis, sinusitis; staphylococcus, streptococcus |
Gynecologist-endocrinologist | endocrine pathology |
Psychotherapist | neuroses, chronic stress |
Dentist | Periodontitis, periodontitis, cysts, granulomas |
Acne - a psychological problem
Weeks I could not leave the house because of his shy person. Hours spent in the mirror, every masking redness on the face. It seemed to me that everyone can see only my acne.
I'm embarrassed to hold working meetings, did not communicate with friends, and I was ashamed to admit that I was hurt. If you recognize yourself even in something that I have listed, contact a therapist. I pulled up to the last, and already with a healthy skin treated clinical depression.
Care for problem skin
During the consultation the dermatologist appoint external care for the treatment of acne. This can be "Skinoren", "Differin", "Baziron" or other medicament which is used for at least three months. It must be combined with medical cosmetics for its skin type.
A wrong care increases the time of treatment. What has come to your friend may not work for you or cause allergies because of individual intolerance. I bought creams on the advice of friends and advertising, but my face was getting worse.
Dermatologists and cosmetologists recommend to use the medical or professional cosmetics. Medical cosmetics sold in pharmacies and passes international clinical trials, it is used a higher safety requirements. These cosmetics are produced in our own laboratories, which have advanced technology and research base. Examples grades: La Roche-Posay, Avene, Uriage, Bioderma, Vichy.
The doctor cosmetologist, dermatologist may choose the professional products for skin care. Examples of brands: Holy Land, Christina, Sweet Skin, SkinCeuticals.
I asked the doctor-cosmetologist, what to do with postacne.

I went to the doctors, medical tests and tried different care. In the end, I decided on surgery to remove the tonsils. I went to it as a holiday, because I knew that all this will end.
When I could not look in the mirror, I read articles about the celebrities who also have acne. To reduce the level of stress I was doing yoga and learned meditate: Stress aggravates skin.
That the skin was cleared, it is necessary to work on it every day for months. So that it remains clean, it will take years. But acne can live, and acne should be treated.
