Treatment of Acne
Posted: 07-16-07 07:29am

Risks and benefits of all forms of treatment should always be discussed with your physician. It is important to have a realistic expectation from the treatment. It is also important to understand that complete erasure of the scar may not be possible and for best results multiple treatments may be required.

Physical treatment are generally not done on patients who have recently undergone oral therapy or have a history of keloids, or persistent facial acne.

Collagen injections: Collagen is injected under the skin to fill deep soft scars and results last for 3-6 months. Further injections may be needed for recurrence. It is not suitable for ice pick scars and keloids.

Chemical peels: The three types of chemical peels used are superficial, intermediate and deep peels. For more detail [link removed]

Ordinary myths condition that masturbation causes’s acne and, in opposition, that sexual intercourse can heal it. Although it has been extensively accepted that these are not true due to lack of scientific study on this subject,

This is also essential to note sexual activity has been observed to result in hormonal spikes, which has been associated with acne.
