How long does it take for the redness of acne to disappear after needle removal?

Everyone will have some pimples on their face. Pimples on the face never look good. You can use a pimple needle to prick the pimples. Of course, be sure to disinfect with alcohol when picking, and don't always touch the pimples with your hands. However, some people will experience redness and swelling in the area where the acne occurs after picking it. How long will it take for the redness and swelling to go away? How can I reduce the redness and swelling faster?

What to do if acne becomes red and swollen after being squeezed

In principle, it is possible, but there are a few points to note:

First, the acne needle must be disinfected with alcohol.

Second, if your pimple is still inflamed (it feels hard, red, and a little painful), you cannot use the acne needle to remove it! Otherwise, it will get worse. After 1-2 days, you will clearly see the red color of the pimple slowly fade away, and it will be replaced by a little white or light yellow color. Then you can start to treat it.

What to do if you have acne

Many factors that can lead to the occurrence of diseases are related to parents' physical inheritance, hormone levels, Propionibacterium acnes, excessive oil secretion, irregular diet and daily life, inappropriate skin care products, and high stress. Maintain a regular diet and daily routine, eat more light foods, vegetables and fruits, eat less spicy foods, and ensure smooth bowel movements.

This condition should be treated with a regular diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and pay attention to rest. It can be treated with Chinese patent medicines that clear heat and detoxify, and clindamycin metronidazole ointment can also be used for treatment.

If the acne is more serious, you can apply adapalene gel or benzoyl peroxide gel, and use sulfur ointment instead of facial cleanser to wash your face. At the same time, you can take vesamine capsules, cimetidine tablets and minocycline orally to treat it.

I suggest you go to a professional dermatologist to check out your condition. Don't just treat it yourself at home. Otherwise, your acne will not only not decrease, but will increase. Go and see a dermatologist.

Eat spicy and stimulating seafood barbecue, eat more foods rich in vitamins, maintain a good mood and sleep, take oral medications such as six tablets of metronidazole and vitamin B, cool blood and detoxify granules, external use of clindamycin and metronidazole ointment, Bactroban ointment, and apply Centella asiatica ointment and aloe vera gel for acne scars.

Specific causes of acne

The occurrence of acne is closely related to factors such as excessive sebum secretion, blockage of the sebaceous gland ducts of the hair follicles, bacterial infection and inflammatory response. After entering puberty, the level of androgens, especially testosterone, in the human body increases rapidly, promoting the development of sebaceous glands and producing a large amount of sebum.

At the same time, abnormal keratinization of the sebaceous gland ducts of the hair follicles causes blockage of the ducts, hindering the excretion of sebum and forming keratin plugs, also known as micro-acne. Various microorganisms, especially Propionibacterium acnes, multiply in large numbers in the hair follicles. The lipase produced by Propionibacterium acnes breaks down sebum to produce free fatty acids, while also attracting inflammatory cells and mediators, ultimately inducing and aggravating the inflammatory response.
