Acne in the beautician’s cabin

The pilosebaceous structure is a hair and a sebaceous gland, the excretory ducts of which are always brought to the surface of the skin in the form of a single follicular opening.
Pathogenesis of oily problem skin:

Follicular hyperkeratosis
Sebum hyperproduction
Colonisation of Propionibacterium acnes
Disruption of the microbial balance
Inflammation

Etiopathogenetic forms of acne:

Ordinary: Comedonal, Papulopustular, Knotty
Special: Acne in newborns, childhood; Inverse acne; Fulminant acne; Acne due to endocrinopathies; Acne tarda (late acne)

Clinical forms of acne: the usual ones that occur most often are comedonal, papulopustular, nodulocystic forms.

Morphological elements in acne: these are primarily open comedones (black dots) and closed ones. As the inflammatory process progresses and microorganisms reproduce, pustules become visible. Moreover, in more severe forms of acne, the affected area may undergo necrotic melting, leading to the formation of characteristic nodes and cysts.

Clinical manifestations of acne

absence of inflammatory signs; open and closed comedones, up to 10 pustules
papular rash, up to 10 pustules
pronounced signs of inflammation, large papules, pustules
cystic-indurated changes, pustules

The European classification recommends that we pay our attention to the assessment of the affected area.

0 – Clear/practically clear skin – No rash/ practically no rash (hyperemia, hyperpigmentation)
1 – Practically clear, practically no rash – Several open and closed comedones, several papules
2 – Mild acne – The affected area is less than half of the face, several open and closed comedones, several papules and pustules
3 – Moderate acne – The affected area is more than half of the face, multiple open and closed comedones, multiple papules and pustules, one node
4 – Severe acne – The affected area is the entire face, multiple papules, pustules, rarely nodes
5 – Very severe acne – Strongly pronounced inflammatory elements, nodes

If the affected area is the entire face plus the chest and back, then this is a severe form of acne that requires systemic treatment. In cases of severe acne, there is extensive inflammation, the presence of nodules, post-acne marks, and scarring. These conditions typically necessitate systemic treatment.

Causes

Genetic predisposition
Peripheral hyperandrogenism
Impaired innate immunity

What are the reasons for such conditions? Peripheral hyperandrogenism refers to a genuine increase in androgen hormone levels.

Diagnostics

Detailed medical history collection (duration of the process, signs of hyperandrogenism, genetic predisposition, concomitant diseases)
Consultation of related specialists (gynecologist, endocrinologist)
Laboratory diagnostics (general blood test, biochemical analysis, examination of the endocrine system)

Dermatologist VS Cosmetologist

Systemic – taking drugs per os, intravenous injection – Prescribed by a doctor
Local – all topical remedies, procedures – Recommended by a beautician

Acne Treatment Principles

Relief of inflammation
Prevention of the formation of new pathological elements
Post-acne correction
Anti-relapse therapy

Stop inflammation

Systemic and topical products

retinoids
AHA and BHA
5 alpha reductase blockers
sulfur and zinc
niacinamide
benzoyl peroxide

Retinoids

GRANACTIVE RETINOID 2% (HPR Retinoid)

The latest generation retinoid is retinoic acid ester. Does not convert to retinaldehyde and retinoic acid
Binds to retinoid receptors on skin cells
Regulates the transfer of genetic information from DNA to RNA, stimulates the synthesis of collagen, moisturising glycosaminoglycans

HPR SERUM with Granactive retinoid 2%

Eliminates the appearance of acne and acne-like rashes.
Reduces hyperkeratosis.
By normalizing keratinization processes, it prevents horny scales from sticking together, that can clog pores.
It reduces the synthesis of sebum, normalizes the proliferation of sebocytes, since the cells of the sebaceous gland, like keratinocytes, have receptors on the nucleus for retinol.
It has an anti-inflammatory effect, blocks oxidative stress reactions in tissues, increases local cellular immunity of the skin.
