Choosing Your Acne Treatment Plan
It’s important to note that acne treatment is not one-size-fits-all and everyone has specific issues. There are different types of acne that can be addressed, and your dermatologist can examine your skin and find out what might work best for you. Often, acne can be caused by an overproduction of oil or blocked pores.
Topical retinoids, antibiotics, or combination therapies can target different aspects of acne development. Your dermatologist will examine your skin and ask questions about your overall health. From there, they can determine what could be causing your acne and what the best form of treatment might be. Oral contraceptives are sometimes prescribed for females to regulate hormonal fluctuations that contribute to acne. You may need to combine several forms of treatment to get the best results.
Adopting a healthy skincare routine and making lifestyle changes can also complement medical treatments. Gentle cleansing, avoiding excessive scrubbing, and using non-comedogenic products can contribute to acne management. Additionally, maintaining a well-balanced diet, staying hydrated, and managing stress can positively impact overall skin health.
