What are the different types of acne?
There are several different types of acne that can develop across the body. Understanding the difference between the types of acne is crucial for treating the acne effectively. Depending on the type of acne, you may require an anti-inflammatory or an antibiotic, which would not be effective in treating other varieties of lesions.
Comedonal acne
Comedonal acne does not appear as traditional acne breakouts. Comedonal acne is not red or inflamed like traditional acne vulgaris. Comedones are non-inflammatory blemishes that can be further broken down into two subgroups: whiteheads and blackheads. Whiteheads occur when the hair follicles have been clogged by sebum and dead skin cells but the lesions are “closed,” meaning the plugged contents of the follicle are not in contact with the skin. Blackheads, on the other hand, are “open” lesions, meaning that the contents of clogged follicle are exposed to the skin. They appear black because the exposure to the skin leads to oxidization of the contents of the plugged pores. The most common locations for comedonal acne are on the forehead, chin, and jawline. However, comedones can also appear on the back, chest, neck, and shoulders, and can be treated in a similar manner. It is important not to squeeze your own comedones, as this can allow bacteria to enter, and lead to infections and scarring.
