Read This Guide to Know How to Treat Back Acne
by Myclinic Malaysia SKIN CONSULTATION & TREATMENTAcne is common on the back and is often
more difficult to treat when found here. This is due partly because the skin on
the back is tougher than that on the face and it becomes necessary to use
different skin care products here. Also, the back is in constant contact with
clothing and other materials that may cause skin irritation further aggravating
the condition.
Acne is caused by the build-up of excess
oils on the skin that form lesions (generally known as pimples). Prevent acne
in the first place is the most effective way to treat it although this can be
difficult to achieve on the back.
As with facial acne it is important to
create and maintain a daily skin regimen for this back acne. A cleanser,
lotion, and a moisturizer are essential ingredients for this. It is also
claimed that glycolic acid is effective too.
You need to try to understand what could be
causing or aggravating the back acne. For instance, backpacks are usually worn
across the upper shoulders and the upper part of the back. If you use one,
especially on a daily basis, and suffer from back acne, consider changing it
for a shoulder bag or a pack with carrying handles. Once your acne has
disappeared, try wearing the backpack again and if the acne reoccurs, it will
be a strong indication of the possible cause and will help point you to a
solution.
Clothing can also affect and irritate back
acne. Tight clothing can rub against your skin and aggravate it as well as
cause sweating. Sweating will also cause excess oil build-up in turn causing a
greater problem.
Rough or coarse clothing is also a cause of
acne in prone areas because it aggravates the situation and can irritate
existing acne and cause new breakouts.
Like all other forms of acne, back acne can
be mild, moderate, or severe. Therefore, it's important to recognize the type
and severity of your condition so that it can be treated accordingly and
effectively. Skin type also plays an important part in the back-acne treatment.
Different skin types react differently to certain products and therefore
require different treatments.
If you are using over-the-counter products
that don't appear to be working to clear up your back acne, seek the advice and
care of a dermatologist who can help you find a Back Acne Treatment that is right for you and
your skin.
