As the temperature gradually rises, it seems that we have entered the rhythm of summer overnight. Many people's facial skin begins to become oily, sensitive and fragile, and acne frequently "pops up". So, what factors cause the skin to secrete more oil? Why does acne always have a special liking for oily skin? Next, I will explain these issues in detail for friends who are deeply troubled by oily acne skin.

DEFINITIONAL

Definition and characteristics of oily acne skin

1. Definition of oily acne skin

Oily acne skin is a common manifestation of oily skin. Under normal circumstances, the oil secreted by the sebaceous glands is discharged to the surface of the skin through the sebaceous gland ducts. However, when this process is disturbed, it is easy to cause acne. The formation of oily acne skin is usually the result of multiple factors.

2. Characteristics of oily acne skin

Large pores: Excessive secretion of sebaceous glands leads to decreased skin elasticity, and the support structure around the hair follicles is lost, resulting in enlarged pores.

Overabundance of blackheads: Excessive sebum secretion clogs the pores with oil, and areas such as the nose are particularly oily, which are prone to blackheads.

Frequent acne: A large amount of oil accumulates in the pores, causing the pores to be clogged, and dirt cannot be discharged, thus causing acne.

Dark yellow skin color: Areas with strong oil secretion are prone to oxidation, and peroxide lipids will be formed after exposure to ultraviolet rays, causing the skin to be dark and yellow.

BECAUSE

Why does acne prefer oily skin?

1. Self-judge whether you have oily acne skin

The skin is prone to oiliness and shine, especially after waking up, the face is obviously oily, and the makeup will be mottled after a few hours.

Large pores, excessive secretion of sebaceous glands leads to clogged hair follicles, and pores gradually become larger.

Easy to get acne, closed comedones, and acne recurs, and oil accumulates on the face, clogging pores.

2. Reasons why acne prefers oily skin

Excessive secretion of sebaceous glands: Excessive facial oil can easily clog pores and cause inflammation, leading to problems such as blackheads, acne, and acne.

Insufficient skin moisture: The stratum corneum has low moisture content, and the skin barrier function is damaged, which is prone to symptoms such as redness, stinging, itching, peeling, and inflammation.

Oxidation of sebum membrane: After the sebum membrane is oxidized, the stratum corneum is prone to inflammation, the skin barrier function weakens, and gaps appear in the stratum corneum.

Clogged pores cause inflammation: Excess oil, dead skin, and dirt accumulate in the pores, causing inflammation, which leads to acne.

Tip: All skin types can get acne, but oily skin is more prone to this.

How to improve oily acne-prone skin

1. Fruit acid peel

Fruit acid can correct abnormal keratinization of hair follicle epithelium, reduce sebum accumulation and pore blockage, and inhibit the growth of Propionibacterium acnes through an acidic environment, thereby improving acne. In addition, fruit acid can stimulate collagen regeneration, improve pigmentation, and enhance overall skin quality. The general treatment interval is once a month, and the efficacy is evaluated after 3-6 times.

Low-concentration fruit acid (less than 10%): mainly used to remove aged keratin and reduce the cohesion between epidermal cells.

Medium-concentration fruit acid (10%-30%): can reach the dermis and help fade acne marks and dark spots.

High-concentration fruit acid (more than 30%): belongs to medical-grade fruit acid, mainly used to exfoliate aged keratin, and is often used to remove acne on the back.

2. Intense pulsed light (photorejuvenation)

Intense pulsed light is a multifunctional medical beauty project that can be selected according to different wavelengths to treat problems such as capillary dilation, pigmentation, and acne. It can also stimulate collagen regeneration, improve skin texture, and have a certain inhibitory effect on sebaceous gland secretion. Suitable for people with recurrent acne, oil control needs, and erythema and acne scars. It is recommended to perform once a month, 3-6 times in a row as a course of treatment. It can also be used in combination with fruit acid peeling for better results.

Through the above methods, oily acne skin can be effectively improved, but it is necessary to choose a suitable treatment plan according to personal conditions and carry out under the guidance of a professional doctor.
