About acne
Acne is a very frequent skin problem in which hair follicles get clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to spots, blackheads and at times painful lumps.
Common triggers
Hormones, oil production, skin bacteria and family history are the main factors. Heat, perspiration, pore-clogging sun lotions or cosmetics and friction from straps can make it worse while travelling.
Care and treatment for acne
The doctor can look at your skin by video or photos, suggest a routine and prescribe topical or oral treatment where suitable, and say when a dermatologist visit makes sense. Depending on your case, the doctor may suggest topical treatments such as benzoyl peroxide, retinoids or topical antibiotics, and sometimes oral antibiotics.
- Avoid squeezing spots, which can scar
- Choose oil-free, non-comedogenic sunscreen and cosmetics
- Rinse off sweat and sunscreen after swimming
