The skin is a special organ that performs many functions, including signaling and informational. Therefore, the appearance of various formations on the skin or a change in its condition always indicates the presence of some problems in the body as a whole.
"Age-related" changes in the skin of adolescents, and especially in patients aged 23-25, are actually associated with changes in hormonal levels and metabolism, which are the basis for the development of acne. The treatment process should include several types of therapy and a certain sequence.
General treatment is aimed at normalizing the general condition of the body.
Cleansing of the skin of the face (neck, décolleté, back) in the presence of inflammatory elements should be carried out by gentle methods that exclude thermal effects (steaming) and active mechanical. The alternate use of scrubs, creams for peeling and other means that help soften the stratum corneum of the epidermis allows you to remove hyperkeratotic layers from the skin surface and clean the pores. Closed comedones and open comedones that remain uncleaned can be emptied mechanically after mandatory treatment of the skin with an antiseptic.
