Lets move on to a more severe type of acne, called Cystic Pimples

A more severe form of acne is called cystic pimples. It forms like the basic type of acne but it will develop into a cyst that is from the build up of a puss like substance in the pores and infection and can be rather painful. Cystic pimples are not a true cyst but what is called a nodule and will form on or below the surface of the skin..

The nodules need to be treated as soon as possible to increase the chance of getting rid of them with the least amount of scarring. If they are in the beginning stages a topical medicated cream and antibiotics can be tried otherwise more aggressive treatment may be required.. When they are finally gone some degree of scarring will occur, mild scars can disappear within six months but worse scars may need medical treatment to get rid of.

Someone who has a family history of acne may expect to also have acne in their teen years and cystic acne is mostly predominant in teens, adults are not so susceptible to this type of acne. It is now said that diet is not a real factor in getting acne, they now say it’s the family history, environment and a matter of skin care. Except for cystic pimples where a diet that is rich in fat with lack of fruits and vegetables may lead to nodules.

So look at your diet and try to make it more healthy by eating more vegetables, fruits and reduce as much junk food as possible. Do not forget to drink lots of water to help flush out the toxins.

Is popping pimples worth it? Is it bad?

Many experts recommend avoiding the popping of the infamous pimple, since they can leave acne scars that may stay with you for the rest of your life. Sometimes your left without a choice.

Acne always seems to come at a bad time, such as a big date or even before a job interview. You just can't have that be the highlight of your night, you need to get rid of it.

Well if you must pop it, take appropriate measures, yes it is mission impossible but to be safe here is how you do it.

1. Make sure your hands and face is clean

2. Use a sterilized needle, go ahead and slowly move in on the kill. You do not want to go in really far because you will damage your nerves if its that deep. Just simply pop that layer of skin where it holds that nasty white liquid (puss).

If it does hurt or you are uncomfortable doing it, I would advise to just leave it alone and bare with it.

3. When you are done, wash your hands and face once more and make sure the pimple is completely cleaned up.

Now the deed is done and you are home free, temporarily. At least.

It should be popped and you should be out of the woods, at least temporarily.

Make sure to clean your face as often as you can to clear up pores and oils that accumulate on your face. Clean your face at least twice a day.

A guide to working with chest acne. How fantastic ;\

Lets hear it for chest acne, which got the many of us. But lets try to get rid of it. Earlier in time it was believe that it only had affect on teenage boys and girls but recently it has been proven to be false. It is now found in many adults as well as teenagers. Chest acne can simply be a form of pimples or abrasions that can occur on the chest, just like other various parts of the body which makes it no different. Many people can refer to it as "chestne" or if you have back acne "backcne". Chest acne as well as acne in different forms of the body have a toll on people and can control us and how we do things because they can cause uneasiness and embarrassment let alone low self esteem.

There are many ways to control our chest acne, you can wash your chest area thorougly after sweating heavaly on a hot day or even exercising. Another way is to wear breathable fabrics such as cotton in order to let out the evaporation of our sweat. A acne sufferer should also keep their bed sheets clean as well as your pillow cases to avoid sleeping on everydays sweat and dirt.

While working on caring for your chest acne, you should keep in mind that body acne is not the same as facial acne. The pores on our body are different than our facial pores and should be treated differently. When your hair is long, you should keep a lookout on washing it thorougly to make sure all the oils that we have kept throughout the day to be washed off, let alone the dirt and other particles. But keep in mind not to scrub to hard because that can cause irritation and inflammation and bursting of the pimples which can lead to bleeding and further more irritation and possible scarring. So watch out!

Heres another effective measure against acne on the chest, start to use body wash to help clean away the many types of particles and bodily oils. On top of that remember to use lotion for a protective layer and moisturizer. If used every morning and everynight the body wash and lotion will help protect and stop the breakout of body acne. It is highly recommended to stick with one type of body wash and lotion instead of various types to avoid the many additives mixing and possibly aggregating the disease.


A Introduction to the many forms of acne.

When our world thinks of acne, they think of someones face full of acne. A outbreak of red or inflamed pores on hers or his face. Well that is a common form of acne but is not the only type that many people experience. I made this blog to help and inform many people about the many types of acne as well as to help control it and cure it.

Their are many causes of acne and they can form on different areas of our bodies. As long as pores and hair follicles which are tiny microscopic openings on our body that become clogged with oil, dust, dirt or any outside particles, they can be come inflamed or irritated. That's when acne begins to start, they soon close up and trap the man particles which cause eruptions or rashes of blackheads and many types of inflamed cysts.There after begins a whole army of uncontrolled acne to begin.

When looking around your body and you happen to find acne like symptoms other than your face, there is no need to panic. You are experiencing a different type of acne, you may want to try to find the location of this outbreak and try to see what led it to form.

Acne vulgaris is the most common form of acne. It is often experienced during puberty because of fluctuating hormone levels. Acne that appears is usually on the face and can spread to areas around the shoulders, chest, and sometimes the back. Though the reason for the acne is internal and not a great deal can be done, you can lessen outbreaks by keeping clean, eating right, getting exercise, and using medication as necessary.

Acne rosacea appears as a red rash that occurs primarily on the face. While the cause of this form is unknown, you can try to control it by using gentle cleansers and sometimes medication can be prescribed if needed.

Acne keloidalis nuchae is caused by shaving. A close shave can leave follicles open, irritated, and more susceptible to outside elements. Men can get this form of acne on their faces and women may find it on their legs and occasionally in their armpits. People commonly refer to this type of acne as razor bumps.

Acne conglobata is if you find recurring abscesses around your groin, buttocks, underarms, and for women, under the breasts, you may have this type of acne.

Sweat glands and hair follicles in these areas have become inflamed, leading to uncomfortable sores. Keep these areas clean and use gentle cleansers that do not clog pores. You may require medication also.

Acne cosmetica is if you are experiencing acne but are past puberty, do not have any other reasons for hormonal changes, eat right and keep clean, the cause behind this acne is the cosmetics you use. They are getting into your pores and clogging them up, leading to acne. Always be sure to wash your cosmetics off once you do not need them on any longer, and you would do well to switch to different cosmetics altogether.

Acne fulminans is an extreme form of acne conglobata. Seek help from your dermatologist in order to find more aggressive ways of combating this form of acne.

Acne medicamentosa. Medications these days have all sorts of side effects. In this case, some medications may cause acne. Because your body adjusts to the medication, even beginning or ending taking a medication can affect your body and lead to acne. Check with a doctor or consult the information about a particular medication if you believe it may be the reason for your acne.

Baby acne. If you are not the one with acne, but have seen a rash on the skin of your baby, either on his or her cheeks, chin, or forehead, do not worry too much, as it is only a mild form of acne that some infants may get. It should clear up on its own, but if you are still concerned, consult your pediatrician.

Chloracne. Being in a position that exposes you to chlorinated hydrocarbons can cause a rash like form of acne. Dioxins or PCBs are good examples of chlorinated hydrocarbons, so if you deal with these two components, you may also be experiencing related acne.

The easiest way to rid yourself of this form of acne is to stop dealing and handling chlorinated hydrocarbons. This does take time to disappear, sometimes gentle cleansers are needed to free yourself from this form of acne.
