Awkward age Adolescence is called a transition. No longer a child, but not yet an adult. B body a teenager undergoing complex processes of restructuring, both in the hormonal system, and in the psyche. There is a personality, maturity of the organism. But it happens that a purely functional problems are compounded by the problem of adolescence, which dreads and a young man and girl. Poetry of life destroys the ideal of beauty.

Most teenagers complain about pimples on his face, as well as on the back and chest. Someone can have more, someone less. The appearance of acne due to hormonal changes. Played an active role and genetic factors – genetic predisposition. During puberty the sex hormones begin to strongly influence the secretion of the sebaceous glands, so the past actively allocate their secrets. Acne – a disease associated with improved function of the sebaceous glands, and appear most often in places where congregate sebaceous glands – the face, chest and back. This so-called seborrheic place. The skin becomes oily when seborrhea and may peel off, pores gape, many of them due to accumulation of sebum in the ducts formed grayish-black caps – comedones. Comedones may be open or closed. The latter represent a time or the hair follicle, the output of sebum that is blocked by dead cells, so in the hair follicle is the accumulation of secrets. This inflammatory reaction, manifested by a conical papules or red purple-bluish color is called papulozoy. Cluster of secrets in the hair follicle stretches the walls of the follicle to the extent that it is bursting, and the contents of the follicle enters the surrounding tissue. Protective tissue reaction – the formation of inflammatory purulent rash. This process is called pustuloza (pustula meaning "pimple"). This so-called acne vulgaris. After their healing are spots or scars. The most severe type of acne – acne konglobatnoe, which is located in the deeper layers of skin and subcutaneous fatty tissue, is a collection of the inflamed follicles in the form of cysts. Exit sebum zakapsulirovan. Autopsy of acne may develop a fistula, which remain after healing "mostikoobraznye" scars. There may also be pigmented spots. Thus, there are three forms of acne: mild – only comedones (small black dots) and in some places – papules; average – comedones, papules and pustules; heavy (a manifestation of acne) – the presence of comedones, papules, pustules, cysts and nodes. In the treatment of acne it is important to observe the rules of skin care: cleansing of its special cosmetics designed for problematic teenage skin. This may be gels, lotions, special soap. But often the only use of cosmetics can not solve the problems of the skin, so it is recommended to combine them with medical facilities. Improper use of the same as those and other tools can cause increased clogging pores, skin irritation, allergy. It is therefore recommended to consult a doctor, beautician, who will be able to determine the severity of the process and select a suitable tool. The next stage in the treatment of: • the use of exfoliating means which avoid clogging pores, such as salitsinovaya acid, sulfur, tar, benzoyl-peroxide, acid, Retin-A, • the use of drugs acting on the fungi and bacteria. This may be antifungal, antibacterial, antibiotics (especially tetracycline or erythromycin series, existing in the form of lotions, gels, low-fat cream), • the use of anti-inflammatory drugs. In severe forms of acne treatment system is appointed, both external and internal. You may need advice and gynecologist, endocrinologist, to normalize the endocrine system. If the acne can not be referred to treatment, but on the face and body are still deep scars, use special drugs – synthetic retinoids (derivatives of vitamin A acid). But they can give side effects, so the doctor prescribes them only after a full examination. Do I have to wait for the wedding? Problem acne care about not only the adolescents themselves, but also their parents.Often they come with their children to a doctor's help to establish the cause of acne. There are a number of phenomena that many parents mistakenly believe that perpetrators of acne. For example, a disease of internal organs. The immune system and the state of internal organs are closely related to the skin, but problems in the digestive system, liver or stomach – not the main factor of acne. We have to explain that acne – it is a characteristic phenomenon of adolescence, although for the development of acne are significant and the state of digestion, and diet. Many parents link all the trouble with the skin of the child with the immoderate consumption of chips, candy, coca-cola. I, like many foreign scientists, physicians and dermatologists, believe that such food is not the main cause of acne. Of course, abused products containing a large amount of fats, carbohydrates, not worth it. They may reinforce already-begun. Sometimes parents soothe their children: "After the wedding, everything will pass." This statement is of vital evidence. With the onset of sexual activity and pregnancy effects of sex hormones is regulated so the skin condition improves. Moreover, the age at which a girl or boy to marry, may coincide with the period when the work of the hormone system has returned to normal. Wrong point of view, formed the majority of people on the yeast. It is believed that their use can improve skin condition as well as preparations of yeast rich in vitamins Group B. The German Dermatologists believe that the B vitamins, and although useful for the skin, but an overdose of vitamins B1 and B6 can cause a rash similar to acne, so with the use of them should be careful. I am frequently asked question of the influence of the sun. Dermatologists have on this account the different views. On the one hand, refers to the usefulness of sun-bathing for the treatment of diseases caused by bacteria and fungi. On the other – ultraviolet rays – one of the reasons for the rapid aging of the skin. Their negative impact has been on teenage skin. UV light leads to a defensive reaction of the skin as a seal of the horny layer of the epidermis and clogging pores, which is one of the main points in the mechanism of acne. I think that you should not place high expectations on the treatment of sunbathing. They have both positive and negative sides. If it hurts the soul, a person suffers Adolescents differently experiencing discomfort associated with acne. Some people do not pay attention to it, while others, conversely, are closed in themselves, blame all their failures acne and therefore depressed. It is believed that adolescents living in disadvantaged families, the process can take heavier than those who are not experiencing acute emotional experiences in the family. Note also that during adolescence – the time of formation of personality. At yesterday's child appears his view of things, their view of life. Very often this is accompanied by the desire of all to be like his idol – be it an athlete, actor or musician. The tragedy begins when the ideal and his own reflection in the mirror too far from each other. Are made systems, to overcome that are not so simple. Recently came to me a woman, whose daughter came out to the street, but when it got dark, rarely met with friends. Girl on the month renounced all products that contain a large amount of fats and carbohydrates. But the improvement was not. Then, with my mother, she came to me. After several months of treatment, the problem of acne was for her not so relevant. Selected drugs allowed to get rid of fear to stay forever with pimply face. Psychological same tram had to be treated with psychotherapy. Treatment of adolescent skin rather lengthy process, and everyone he passes in different ways, so do not think that one visit beauticians will help get rid of blackheads. Every young person should know that there are special toning tools that are both hea
ling. They help to disguise the flaws on the face. But in any case should not use decorative masking tools. Recommendations: 1.Kazhdy adolescent should understand that acne – this is primarily the result of hormonal changes caused by puberty.2.Ni should never self-medicate, as this may exacerbate the disease. 3.Ne not use cosmetics or creams used by the mother. It can also cause undesirable skin reactions. 4.Neobhodimo always consult a certified cosmetic or doctor-cosmetologist. 5.Upotreblenie designated medical facilities should be regular and long.
