Cystic Acne - Pizza Face and Other Names

by jthomas12

Usually everyone has had acne at sometime of his or her lives
usually the adolescence stage. You may have suffered from white
head, black head or pustules they all have the same medical term
acne. Some kinds of acne have a very harmful affect on the
emotional well being of an individual. These are cystic acne and
individuals suffering from this kind are also referred to as
pizza face as their faces have red spots around the acne.

Acne is the results of the blocked hair follicles. The hair
follicles get blocked with bacteria and sebum in cystic acne.
This blockage is deeper than simple acne therefore causes reddish
tender skin around the hair follicle. The may have the pus
filled. It was commonly believed that acne is caused due to poor
hygiene, but this is not the whole truth. There are a number of
reasons, which contribute to the outbreak of cystic acne.

Common Causes:

The exact infection, which results in the cystic acne, cannot be
determined. This is because each infection may have an origin,
which is different from another. Many researchers are of the
opinion that cystic acne outbreak may have genetic factors also.
The reasons being not many individuals have them but they sure
seem to run in a family.

This kind of acne may also result in scarring more so if they
are picked or squeezed. Picking or attempting to squeeze it out
may also cause the infection to go deep into the skin and
increase the intensity of the outbreak. As stated above, hygiene
is not a contributing factor in the outbreak of cystic acne, but
there is also a general consensus on the fact that food habits
and environmental factors do contribute to cystic acne.

A bad case of cystic acne may be triggered by exposure to some
toxins and also due to excessive secretion of some hormone in the
body. Another substance, which is known to cause these painful
and dirty looking cystic acne, is anabolic steroids. Adequate
treatment and keeping away from these harmful substance help in
controlling the undesirable cystic acne.

Treatment:

The most important part in the treating of cystic acne is not to
pinch or squeeze them out. This will result in worsening of the
situation. To help with all that tenderness and throbbing pain, a
doctor should be consulted. The doctor will drain the pus with
sterilized instrument and prescribe antibiotics for the
infection.

When this method fails, other medication such as Accutane may be
prescribed, this medication though helps but should be taken
under medical supervision. In some people, regular exfoliation of
the skin and face peeling seems to be quite effective. In many
others, no particular treatment but a combination of all of the
above yields satisfactory result.
