It is easy to think of acne as a skin concern that occurs during adolescence, but it can recur even after becoming an adult due to various causes such as sebum secretion and lifestyle habits. Because of these concerns, there are people considering acne treatment at Migeum Dermatology.

Today, I will summarize everything from the reasons why acne forms to acne treatment methods at Migeum Dermatology and home care tips!

1. Reasons why acne occurs

1) Increased sebum secretion

When sebum is secreted excessively, it tends to accumulate inside the pores. It is said that this excess sebum clogs the pores, leading to repeated inflammatory reactions and creating an environment where acne is prone to developing. In particular, areas with well-developed sebaceous glands, such as the forehead, nose, and chin, are said to be susceptible to recurring acne.

 

2) Accumulation of dead skin cells

It is said that if dead skin cells do not shed properly and clog pores, sebum accumulates inside, potentially leading to milia or comedonal acne.

 

3) Lifestyle problems

Excessive face washing, lack of sleep, and irregular lifestyles can also be factors that worsen acne. It is said that these factors can interact to affect sebum secretion and inflammatory responses.

2. Migeum Dermatology Acne Treatment Methods

Acne treatment can vary depending on skin condition, the type of acne, and the degree of inflammation. Let me tell you about a few of the acne treatments offered at Migeum Dermatology.

3. Considerations for Acne Treatment at Migeum Dermatology

1) Identify the type of acne

Acne does not all come in the same form. It is said that the direction of treatment can vary depending on the type, such as comedonal acne, pustular acne, and nodular acne.

 

2) Identify the cause of recurrence

Acne is not a problem that ends with just one extraction. It is said that if you have oily skin or skin that accumulates dead skin cells easily, there is a possibility that acne will repeatedly appear in the same areas.

 

3) Consider the possibility of marks or scars

Squeezing acne with your hands or leaving inflammation untreated for a long time can lead to deep skin damage, and pustular acne can result in red marks or hyperpigmentation. It is recommended to approach acne treatment not only to soothe the current breakouts but also to prevent marks and scars in the future.

4. Acne Home Care Methods

It is said that it is also good to do supplementary care at home to prevent acne from worsening.

 

1) Gentle facial cleansing

It is not good to wash your face harshly just because you have acne-prone skin. It is recommended to wash gently using a low-irritation cleanser in the morning and evening.

2) Avoid oily products

If you experience recurring acne, it is best to avoid oily creams or heavy oil products. When choosing products, it is important to check if they are non-comedogenic.

 

3) Avoid self-extrusion

Squeezing acne with your hands is highly likely to deepen inflammation or damage surrounding tissues. Since this can lead to scarring, it is recommended not to touch acne forcefully.

5. Q&A

1) Will acne improve just by getting it extracted?

While extraction can help clear sebum and comedones accumulated in the pores, it may not be sufficient if the cause of acne is complex, involving factors such as sebum secretion and clogged keratin. If acne recurs, it is advisable to consider sebum control and recurrence management as well.

 

2) How should acne scars be treated if they remain?
PicoFraxel can be considered for acne scar treatment. PicoFraxel is a procedure that regenerates the skin by rupturing tissues within the dermis and creating air pockets, helping to improve acne scars as well as enlarged pores.

The event price for Maypure PicoFraxel is 80,000 won per session, and the first-visit event price is 49,000 won.
