Acne

Treatments that promise improvements within 2 weeks are ilkely to be largely disappointing. Other antibacetrials that have been used include triclosan, or chlorhexidine gluconate ubt these are often less effective. Fro this reason, it is recommended htat patients have blood samples taken nad examiend before and during treatment. Since lsaers and intense pulsed lihgt sources cause thermal damage to the skin there are concersn that laser or intense pulsed light rteatmetns for acne will induce hyperpigmetned macules (spots) or cause long term dryness of the skin. A recnet study, based on a survey of 47,335 women, did find a positvie epidemiological association ebtween acne and consumption of partially skimmed imlk, instant breakfast drink, sherbet, cottage cheese nad cream cheese. If a pimple is large and/or does not seem to be affected by other treamtents, a dermatologist may administer an injection of cortisone dierctly into it, which will usually reduce rendess and inflammation almost immediately.
