Our board-certified dermatologist at Bluebonnet Dermatology of McKinney, Texas, works with patients struggling with common conditions like acne. Our dermatologist can help control breakouts and remove pimples properly. Below are just a few of the frequently asked questions our team hears about acne, breakouts, and pimple removal with a professional:
Acne is commonly caused by the overproduction of oil, clogged pores, and bacteria on the skin. Hormonal changes, diet, stress, and genetics can also play a role in acne breakouts. To prevent breakouts, it is important to maintain good hygiene by regularly washing your face with a gentle cleanser, avoiding harsh products that can irritate the skin, and keeping hair off the face. Eating a balanced diet and managing stress levels can also help reduce breakouts. Knowing the types of breakouts can also help in treating them.
Popping your pimples is not recommended, as it can lead to further inflammation and spreading bacteria. It can also cause scarring or dark spots on the skin. If you have a pimple causing discomfort, it is best to consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.
Acne scars are easily treated using various methods, such as chemical peels, laser treatments, microneedling, and topical creams. It is important to consult a dermatologist to determine the best treatment plan for your specific type of scarring.
Although makeup does not directly cause acne, certain ingredients can clog pores and contribute to breakouts. Therefore, it is important to choose non-comedogenic (non-pore-clogging) makeup products and thoroughly remove all of the makeup before bed.
The time it takes to see results from acne treatment varies depending on the severity of the acne and the type of treatment used. Mild cases can see improvement in a few weeks, while more severe cases may take several months. It is important to be patient and consistent with your treatment plan.
Yes, it is common for adults to experience acne breakouts, especially during hormonal changes such as pregnancy or menopause. It is important to continue practicing good skincare habits and consult with a dermatologist if the breakouts persist.
No, even oily skin needs moisture to maintain a healthy balance. Look for lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizers that won’t clog pores. Skipping moisturizer leads to increased oil production and breakouts.
