3. How to remove acne scars –without medication Around 70-80% of people suffer from different forms of impure skin and acne-prone skin. In some forms of mild to moderate acne, people do not seek out medication to manage their symptoms. However, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist, even for early or mild symptoms, as medicinal intervention can help to prevent further aggravation and consequences such as scarring. Non-medicinal treatments, such as: cleansers, toners, scrubs, moisturisers and concealers are sold by pharmacists, over the counter, with no need for a prescription. These cleanse, clear and care for impure and acne-prone skin. There are also a number of lifestyle changes sufferers can make to control outbreaks and minimize symptoms.

4. Signs & symptoms of impure and acne-prone skin Before deciding which non-medicinal treatment to use, it’s important to identify the symptoms that are causing concern. Treatments for impure and acne-prone skin and mild to moderate acne tend to address one or more of the four issues attributed to the condition. They work by: • Reducing sebum production thereby controlling seborrhea. • Speeding up skin cell shedding, and therefore helping to deal with hyperkeratosis. • Fighting bacterial infection caused by microbial colonisation. • And may even reduce inflammation and, in turn, calm down spots, papules and pustules.

5. It is also important to differentiate between impure and acne-prone skin and hypersensitive skin reaction with pimples or rosacea. The papules and pustules that appear in the hypersensitive disorder Rosacea, for example, are similar in appearance to acne but there are no blocked pores, the skin is more likely to be dry than greasy and Rosacea spots don't leave scars.

6. Major causes and triggers of impure and acne-prone skin Impure and acne-prone skin is a very common skin condition that usually begins during puberty when both boys and girls experience major hormone changes. Hormone substances, called androgens, stimulate sebaceous glands to produce more sebum than is necessary (seborrhea). This seborrhea may itself interfere also with the normal skin shedding. When skin produces an excess amount of sebum and does not shed dead skin cells sufficiently, the two can build up in the hair follicle and form together as a soft plug. This plug may cause the follicle wall to bulge and produce a whitehead or, the plug may be open to the surface and may darken, causing a blackhead. Pimples (also known as papules or pustules) are raised red areas of skin with a white centre that develop when blocked hair follicles become inflamed or infected. Blockages and inflammation that develop deep inside sebaceous glands produce lumps beneath the surface of the skin called cysts.

8. Especially teenagers should take a focus on a daily skin care routine as they are more prone to acne. Normally harmless acne bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes) can multiply due to excessive production of sebum.

9. Myths of acne-prone skin As well as the facts, there is a lot of fiction surrounding the causes of acne-prone skin. These unfounded myths unfairly blame the sufferer for their condition. For example, people with acne-prone skin are often told that they are unhygienic or do not wash their skin often enough. The truth is that over-washing is actually more damaging to acne-prone skin than under-washing as skin can become more irritated by excessive rubbing. Sufferers are also accused of having a poor diet. Exaggerated washing may worsen acne symptoms. Eating sweet products containing sugar can worsen your acne symptoms.

10. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS The main contributing factors of acne-prone skin While the main causes of acne-prone skin tend to be hormonal or genetic, there are some further factors that have been shown to aggravate the symptoms. For example: • a diet rich in certain carbohydrates • excessive drinking of milk and other dairy products  • cigarette smoking • heavy or comedogenic skin care products and make-up which is known to block pores Excessive drinking of milk can aggravate the symproms of acne.

11. Whilst it is always a good idea to seek advice from a dermatologist, even for mild and early symptoms (to prevent the condition worsening), there are certain rules that make sense to be followed: Touching pimpels make things worse. Consult a professional cosmetician. • Use lukewarm water rather than over-hot or over-cold. • Use non-comedogenic make-up. • Only use non-comedogenic skin care. • Leave pimples alone – touching or squeezing them will only make things worse.

12. SOLUTIONS Moderate to severe acne may need medical intervention from a doctor or dermatologist but mild comedonal acne can often be treated without medication. Pharmacists can offer a range of dermo cosmetic care products. These may include: Treating the symptoms of impure and acne-prone skin without medication • Topical antibacterials, such as Decandiol, which can kill bacteria • Licochalocone A, an effective anti-inflammatory • Carnitine, which decreases sebum secretion • Lactic acid, as a keratolytic agent
