How are cystic acne formed and how to eliminate them quickly?

Acne is the most common skin disease during adolescence, especially cystic acne, which not only affects personal appearance, but also has a great impact on social interaction. So how does cystic acne form?

Cystic acne

Acne often occurs in areas where sebaceous glands secrete vigorously, such as the face, chest, back, etc. There is a pus bag in the middle of the acne, which looks very red and swollen. When it reaches a certain level, pus will squeeze the epidermis and flow out. Some serious patients need to go to the hospital for treatment, because individuals cannot solve it, and self-treatment will only make it worse. If cystic acne is not treated in time or treated incorrectly, it will leave acne pits and scars that are difficult to go away. Therefore, cystic acne should be taken seriously by us.

Cystic acne is a more serious type of acne, often occurring in young men. Its onset is usually insidious, with the back, buttocks, and cheeks being the main distribution areas, and it may also extend to the abdomen, neck, face, and thighs. Cystic acne is formed by countless blackheads, papules, pustules, abscesses, and cysts. The damage is mainly cysts and nodules, which are purple-red in color. After rupturing, a foul-smelling purulent or mucous slurry will flow out, and deep sunken scars may form afterwards. Cystic acne is very stubborn and difficult to treat. We must have enough patience to completely remove the acne. People with oily skin have overdeveloped sebaceous glands, which secrete too much oil. They do not treat clogged pores and ignore acne. They allow it to develop and have irregular diet and rest. This can easily lead to cystic acne over time. Hormone imbalance and imbalance in hormone secretion in the body can cause acne on the skin. If the sebum secretion is more vigorous, it will further aggravate the acne.

Traditional Chinese medicine treatment focuses on the overall situation, pays attention to internal causes, and treats the symptoms and root causes, while Western medicine treatment focuses on the local area, mainly relying on drug treatment, and the effect can temporarily relieve the symptoms. Cystic acne will form sebaceous cysts of varying sizes, which are often followed by purulent infection. When the inflammation is not serious, topical medications such as retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, and azelaic acid are combined with oral medications, such as tetracyclines and macrolides. For particularly severe cases, oral isotretinoin or anti-androgen treatment and oral glucocorticoids can be used. If you don't want to treat it with medication, you can consider physical therapy, such as photodynamic therapy, fruit acid therapy, laser therapy, etc., which are all good options for treating cystic acne.
