Straight Facts:
1.Formation of pimple includes active sebaceous gland that produces sebum, bacteria and skin cells that naturally shed off but clogs the pores because the sebum glued it together. Bacteria trapped and will produce infection thus producing pimple.
2. To eliminate pimple you have to eliminate what causing it.
3. Eliminate bacteria by using soap and water and proper hygiene. Cleanser, antibacterial cream, and any other medium that contain antibacterial properties, antibiotic capsules and medications sometimes are used for worse condition.
4. To prevent clogging of the pores you can naturally exfoliate your skin through proper face washing or using products that makes the skin sheds off fast like astringent and Retin-A. Make sure to use proper protection like sun block and moisturizer because the skin tends to become thin and sensitive.
5. In a worse case, like the situation of having acne, hormonal therapy is utilized to make the sebaceous gland less active that leads to decrease production of sebum.
6. For the redness and infection, it can naturally go away or the doctor may prescribe cortisol.
7. Never squeeze unless trained to do so, this can spread the infection in deeper tissue and can aggravate the infection.
You have to know your skin type if it’s oily, dry or both. I have oily dry skin, sounds ironic but yeah, you can have both. If your skin is dry you can use products like cream. But if you are oily type and use cream or moisturizer, you might end up having more pimples. If you are oily you can use products that don’t contain oil and are not heavy in the skin. If you are both, in my experience it’s better to leave nothing on the skin just use other form of products or medication. Like in my case instead of putting antibacterial cream, oral antibiotics are more potent.
I really advice you to go to a good dermatologist so that she/he can recommend the best products and treatment for your problem based on her assessment.
Wish you beautiful face and beautiful life
