Video Transcription:
And so it's gonna be skincare 101. So, there are 2 categories, non inflammatory acne and inflammatory acne. The first category, non inflammatory acne, are comedones. So, this includes blackheads and whiteheads. They're not red or sore or painful.
It's usually embedded in the skin and the body hasn't responded to this spot as a form of infection yet. So it's kind of just sitting in the skin and sitting there idling. And it's actually really easy to treat compared to inflammatory acne, which leads me to category 2. This includes capsules, pustules, nodules, and cystic acne. But this type of acne is usually painful and it's bedded in deep layers.
Number 1 is whiteheads. In most cases, acne happens because of clogged åpores, maybe because of bacteria, clogged pores, and dead skin cells.
When When it comes to a whitehead, it's a closed comedone. So it's a long pore that is closed from the top, and it's kind of like underneath the skin. So it's embedded within the skin without having any opening. Okay. Try over the counter products such as salicylic acid.
This really helps. So it dissolves the cement that holds the sticky cells together, and that prevents whiteheads in the future. You can also try Benzoyl Peroxide. 2.5% is awesome. 10% is way too harsh.
It's a marketing strategy to get you to pick the highest percentage, but it actually comes with more adverse side effects, especially if you have sensitive skin. So start with 2.5% and see how you go. The next non inflammatory acne is called a blackhead. Now with a blackhead, so the top part is oxidized and you get that black spot. You can also try the same method in terms of over the counter products such as salicylic acid, Benzoyl Peroxide.
It just takes a little bit longer because the top part is kind of hardened and it's oxidized. I don't recommend pore strips whatsoever. It's a cheap, quick method, but it's only short term results. When you put the pore strip on your nose, not only is it pulling out the blackhead, but it's also ripping the first layer of your skin, ruining your skin's mantle, making it more irritated in the future. And because you're getting rid of your excess oils as well as your natural oils, your skin is gonna be like, Oh my God.
The first one is called Papsils. So the contents of your blocked pore is kind of spilled up to the surface and it's creating that red, inflamed skin. But the thing is, there's no pust inside. And again, this can be used as a similar method because it's like bacteria on the outside of your skin. You wanna kill that bacteria by using over the counter products such as salicylic acid, Benzoyl Peroxide.
when your skin is really inflamed, you want to heal internally. So that means also having, antioxidants, nourishing your body with the right fuse so it can calm the inflammation down. The next one is called pustules. So with the name, there is the word puss in it, which means there is puss inside your inflamed zit. And this usually happens in clusters, whether it be on your chest, your face, your back.
A lot of the times dermatologists and doctors also recommend you to try antibiotics or birth control because hormones in your body can also lead you to have acne. However, I highly recommend you to steer away from antibiotics and birth control because there are a number of side effects where it damages your gut. So what I recommend is on top of using topical treatments, also try to heal internally.
So with nodular acne, it's flesh colored or red bumps on top of your skin, and it could be elongated. So it's deep within the tissues and this doesn't have a head, so do not pop up because you'll damage the surrounding skin tissues. And nodules, in this case, feel like hardened, thick knots, whereas the next one is cystic acne. They're a lot softer and they have a pus filled sac inside.
