What Are the Different Types of Acne?
Acne is a complex condition that manifests in various forms, each with its unique symptoms and causes. Understanding the different types of acne is essential for choosing the right treatment. Here are the most common types:
1. Comedonal Acne (Blackheads and Whiteheads)
Comedonal acne is one of the most common types of acne, characterized by the appearance of blackheads (open comedones) and whiteheads (closed comedones). This type of acne occurs when hair follicles become clogged with a combination of oil (sebum), dead skin cells, and debris.
Symptoms:
-
Small, flesh-colored bumps (whiteheads).
-
Darker, clogged pores (blackheads).
Treatment:
To treat comedonal acne, gentle exfoliation and deep cleansing are essential. Acne Commander’s Beorht Purifying Gel Cleanser, which contains salicylic acid and lactic acid, is formulated to clear pores and reduce the formation of comedones. The Exfoliating Body Spray is also perfect for preventing clogged pores on the body and treating back acne and butt acne.
2. Inflammatory Acne (Papules, Pustules, and Cystic Acne)
Inflammatory acne occurs when clogged pores become inflamed, leading to red, swollen bumps. This type of acne can develop into pustules, which are pus-filled pimples, or cysts, which are deep, painful lumps under the skin.
Symptoms:
-
Red, inflamed pimples (papules).
-
Pus-filled pimples (pustules).
-
Painful, large bumps (cysts).
Treatment:
To reduce inflammation and prevent infection, inflammatory acne requires products that fight bacteria and soothe the skin. Beorht Ultra Clarifying Age Renewing Serum is formulated with niacinamide and salicylic acid, which help calm inflammation and target active breakouts. The Active Broad Spectrum SPF50+ Sunscreen is also a must for protecting the skin from UV damage and preventing scarring, which is common in inflammatory acne.
3. Cystic Acne
Cystic acne is one of the most severe and painful forms of acne. It occurs when deep pimples or cysts form beneath the skin's surface. Cystic acne is typically large, red, and tender, and can result in significant scarring if not treated properly.
Symptoms:
-
Large, painful, cyst-like bumps under the skin.
-
Redness and swelling.
-
Persistent breakouts that don’t resolve easily.
Treatment:
Cystic acne often requires more aggressive treatment, which may include oral medications prescribed by a dermatologist. However, Beorht Ultra Clarifying Age Renewing Serum can help reduce inflammation and support the healing process of mild cystic acne. It is also essential to maintain a skincare routine that focuses on gentle cleansing and oil control, like with the Beorht Purifying Gel Cleanser.
4. Fungal Acne (Pityrosporum Folliculitis)
Unlike typical acne, fungal acne is caused by an overgrowth of yeast in the hair follicles, rather than bacteria. This condition often results in small, itchy bumps on the skin and is commonly mistaken for traditional acne.
Symptoms:
-
Small, itchy bumps often on the forehead, chest, or back.
-
Acne-like appearance but with a fungal origin.
Treatment:
Fungal acne requires antifungal treatment, which can be complemented by gentle cleansing and exfoliation. Acne Commander’s Beorht Purifying Gel Cleanser helps maintain a healthy balance in the skin’s microbiome, preventing fungal overgrowth while deeply cleansing and removing impurities.
5. Hormonal Acne
Hormonal acne is caused by hormonal fluctuations, often during puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, or even stress. It typically appears on the lower face, chin, and jawline, but it can also affect other areas of the body. Hormonal acne is often linked to an increase in oil production, which leads to clogged pores.
Symptoms:
-
Acne that appears around the chin, jawline, and neck.
-
Breakouts related to hormonal changes (e.g., menstruation, pregnancy).
Treatment:
For hormonal acne, oil control and anti-inflammatory treatments are crucial. Acne Commander’s Beorht Moisturiser for Acne-Prone Skin hydrates the skin without clogging pores, while controlling excess oil. The Exfoliating Body Spray can also help with body acne caused by hormonal changes.
