However, some people might be struggling for a very long time.  Acne is not life-threatening, it is completely harmless.

The blog will entail effective treatment options for acne ordered by good dermatologists. 

 

1. Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are a popular and effective treatment for acne and work on the principle of exfoliation. The chemicals used in the peels have exfoliating properties that sand off the topmost layer of the skin and ultimately help in treating acne. There are many different types of chemical peels based on its constituents and purpose. A few are mentioned below:

  • Salicylic acid

  • Glycolic acid 

  • Lactic acid

  • Trichloroacetic acid

  • Cosmelan peel

 

2. Corticosteroid Injections

The short name for corticosteroid injections is cortisone shots. These shots are given in the case of severe acne, especially during large pus-filled and cystic acne. Its working mechanism is based on reducing redness, pain, and inflammation. This is a minimally invasive procedure, so to ease your discomfort, you are administered local anesthesia. 

 

3. Laser and Light Therapy

Laser and light therapy have gained immense popularity over the last few years. It is an ideal, safe, and effective approach for treating acne. The therapy involves killing acne-causing bacteria and reducing sebum oil production to help unclog pores. Moreover, the therapy also aids in promoting collagen production and stimulating skin turnover rate. Furthermore, the therapy can also help break down deep-seated acne scars or pigmentation.  

 

4. Oral Medication 

Oral medication includes capsules and tablets; these are generally antibiotics for fighting off causative agents or acne-causing bacteria. Oral medications are prescribed for treating severe acne, which cannot be controlled by applying creams or gels. Some of the commonly prescribed oral medications are further undermentioned:

  • Antibiotics like tetracyclines, azithromycin, and erythromycin. 

  • Isotretinoin, a retinoid derivative. 

  • Oral contraceptives

 

5. Topical Medication

Topical medication includes creams, gels, and ointments with acne-treating properties. However, these medications are only effective in the case of mild acne. Moreover, these medications are advised to be directly applied over the targeted area. Some of the common topical medications are further mentioned below:

  • Tretinoin

  • Adapalene

  • Tazarotene
