Doctors’ responses
Determining whether you’re dealing with acne or pigmentation requires a closer look at the symptoms and the skin’s condition. Acne typically presents with red, inflamed pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and sometimes cystic bumps. It can be painful or tender to the touch, especially if inflammatory. On the other hand, pigmentation issues include dark spots (hyperpigmentation) or lighter patches (hypopigmentation) of skin. These patches usually aren’t raised and are not inflamed, but they could be the result of post-inflammatory responses following acne or skin injury. For an ongoing issue lasting 8 months, it might be beneficial to look into potential causes like hormonal changes, use of certain skincare products, or lifestyle factors such as stress and diet. Begin by evaluating any personal skin-care products you are using. Avoid overly harsh products that irritate the skin as they can exacerbate both acne and pigmentation. Gentle, non-comedogenic (won’t clog pores) products, with ingredients like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide can help manage acne. For pigmentation, products containing ingredients like niacinamide, vitamin C, or alpha arbutin may assist in lightening dark spots. Sun exposure can worsen pigmentation, so daily use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen is imperative. If over-the-counter methods are not effective, consulting a dermatologist is recommended to explore prescription options which may include topical retinoids for acne or skin-lightening agents for pigmentation. Additionally, professional treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy may provide more significant results. Early professional assessment and management can prevent potential scarring and further complications.
