Acne Treatment

Acne treatment refers to a range of medical and cosmetic practices aimed at preventing, managing, and reducing the symptoms of acne, a common skin condition characterized by the presence of pimples, blackheads, and cysts. Treatments can include topical medications such as retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, or antibiotics; oral medications such as hormonal treatments, antibiotics, or isotretinoin; and various procedures like chemical peels, laser therapy, and light therapy. The goal of acne treatment is to decrease the production of sebum, reduce inflammation, prevent clogged pores, and minimize the risk of scarring. Individual treatment plans are often tailored based on the severity of acne, skin type, and response to previous treatments.
