[Know more about the causes of acne 1 - External causes]
Acne problem is very common in Hong Kong, and it is not unique to young men and women. The editor has experienced a lot of acne🥲, so in this issue, I will tell you where acne is caused. There are many causes of acne. I classify them into external causes and internal causes. Here are some of the more common external causes💡.
Acne is a type of acne that occurs when hair follicles are clogged with dead skin cells and oil. When the sebaceous glands secrete too much and fail to drain it out of the pores in time, it will cause clogged pores🥺. When pores become blocked, acne bacteria on the skin will multiply in large numbers, causing infection and inflammation of the hair follicles such as acne🛡️. When sebum and bacteria penetrate into the dermis, they may cause inflammatory papules, pus, and nodules around the hair follicles. , cysts and other types of acne. In other words, clogged pores can easily lead to acne. So what external factors usually cause clogged pores🤨?
The first external cause is the dirty environment. Hong Kong is a busy city with busy traffic every day, and the air on the roadside is naturally filled with smoke, dust and other pollutants. And our face is exposed to the surrounding air, causing pollutants floating in the air to adhere to the face, thereby clogging the pores, causing inflammation of the hair follicles and acne.
The second external factor is the lack of cleanliness. Clean your face and body well🚿 and wash away the dirt, which will reduce the chance of clogging your pores. In addition, regular cleaning of bed sheets and pillowcases can also prevent the breeding of dust mites and reduce irritation to the face.
The last external cause is the use of skin care products that are not suitable for your skin type✨. For example, if your skin has excess oil, then using oily skin care products will cause the excess oil to clog the pores; if your skin is dry, but you use refreshing skin care products, it will lead to insufficient moisturizing power, triggering the skin to become dehydrated. Under such circumstances, the mechanism of secreting oil can easily cause clogging of pores. So it is very important to choose skin care products that suit you.
Next time, I will tell you about the common internal causes of acne! 😉
