Acne-Prone, Blackheads & Enlarged Pores Treatment Melbourne
Acne is a widespread and chronic skin condition that develops when pores become clogged with oil and dead skin cells, creating an environment conducive to bacterial growth. This can lead to whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, papules, or cysts when the blocked pores become infected.
Acne affects both men and women and is most commonly seen in teenagers and young adults, though it can occur at any age, including in children and adults.
Common Risk Factors for Acne Include:
Genetic predisposition
Hormonal changes
Activation of the innate immune system
Blockage and stretching of hair follicles
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Certain medications (e.g., steroids, hormones, anticonvulsants, and epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors)
Use of occlusive cosmetics
High levels of environmental humidity
Diets rich in dairy or high-glycemic foods
Acne is a frequent concern among our clients. While it is often localized to the face, it can also affect the neck, chest, and back.
The approach to managing acne varies depending on the severity of symptoms and associated skin conditions, making personalized care essential for optimal results.
