Even though the attack of acne spares
none, it is more among the males. Stats state that 80% of males as
against 70% of females are the acne suffers. But the psychological
impact of the acne attack is more among the female, for obvious
reasons!
If it is an ordinary acne attack,
hopefully it will come and go. In the meantime, you need to try your
best for its speedy disposal, with over the counter medications, in
consultation with your trusted doctor; using cleansers, gels or
creams.
Many a times, attack subsides itself,
even without your efforts. As, many of the acne attacks do not
require any treatment as such! According to the school that belongs
to natural and herbal acne treatment, acne is the process of the
internal mechanism of your body. The internal body expels out the
impurities lying within through the skin. And when that natural
process is going on why should you create obstacles in its operation
of clean-up? You are unnecessarily straining the layers of your skin
by using medications. Though, this holds true to mild acne attack
only.
But, when it comes to treating highly
visible scars, the treatment mode has to change. When the attack of
acne takes a severe form, it can lead to pustule and papule
formation. This type of acne is called cystic acne. Cystic acne is
bound to leave scars all over your face, when it goes. These are also
known as hypertrophic, lumpy areas and they are clearly visible. The
marks are hard to hide, even with the thick make up coats.
One of the methods to treat these scars
is through laser treatment. Cryotherapy is another type of treatment
to deal with these scars. Repeated freezing technique is employed to
gently shrink the scar tissue. But then, even cryotherapy has its
limitations in treating the warts or scars. For, human papillomavirus
is not tackled and killed by cryotherapy. It spreads in to the
surrounding tissues. The immune system within the body will normally
take care of the virus, but sometimes, blisters appear as the side
effects. You need to take into account this disadvantage of the
treatment depending upon which part of your body the scars exist.
