新加坡背部痤疮治疗
痤疮是一种常见的皮肤状况，全球有数百万人受到影响。虽然它通常与面部有关，但也可能出现在身体的其他部位，包括背部。
背部的痤疮尤其令人讨厌和不舒服，许多人都在寻求有效的治疗方法来缓解症状。
What are the causes of Back Acne?
01
Excess Sebum Production
Sebaceous glands in the skin produce sebum, an oily substance that helps keep the skin lubricated. When these glands produce too much sebum, it can clog pores and lead to acne.
02
Clogged Pores
Dead skin cells and bacteria can accumulate in hair follicles, leading to clogged pores. This creates an environment conducive to the growth of acne-causing bacteria.
03
Hormonal Changes
Fluctuations in hormone levels, such as those that occur during puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, or when taking certain medications, can contribute to the development of acne.
04
Sweat and Friction
Sweat, heat, and friction from tight clothing or backpacks can irritate the skin and exacerbate acne on the back.
05
Genetics
A family history of acne can increase one's likelihood of developing back acne.
06
Stress
Stress can exacerbate back acne by increasing hormone levels like cortisol, which stimulates excess oil production, leading to clogged pores and inflammation. Additionally, stress weakens the immune system, disrupts the skin barrier, and may prompt unhealthy behaviors that worsen acne, forming a cycle of stress-induced breakouts.
07
Diet
Diet can influence back acne through factors like high-glycemic foods and dairy, which can increase inflammation and stimulate oil production, potentially exacerbating breakouts. In Singapore, spicy and oily foods are commonly enjoyed, but there's a prevalent belief that consuming them can worsen acne and skin inflammation, though this hasn't been definitively proven.
推荐的背部痤疮治疗方法
治疗背部痤疮通常需要结合改变生活方式、护肤方法，有时还需要医疗干预。 在新加坡，遭受背部痤疮困扰的人们可以考虑以下各种治疗选项。
外用疗法：含有过氧化苯甲酰、水杨酸或维A酸等成分的非处方或处方强效外用药物可以帮助疏通毛孔、减轻炎症并预防新的痤疮。
药用清洁剂：含有治疗痤疮成分的药用清洁剂有助于保持背部清洁，防止痤疮爆发。 寻找含有水杨酸或过氧化苯甲酰的产品。
去除角质：定期去角质有助于去除死皮细胞，防止毛孔堵塞。 不过，过度去角质会刺激皮肤，加重痤疮。
专业护理：新加坡的皮肤科医生可提供化学换肤、磨皮和激光治疗等治疗方法，以改善背部痤疮的外观并减少疤痕。
口服药物： 如果背部痤疮很严重，皮肤科医生会开抗生素、激素疗法或异维A酸（俗称 “Accutane”）等口服药物，帮助从内部控制痤疮。
生活方式的改善：改变生活方式，如穿透气性好的衣服、出汗后洗澡、避免过度日晒和保持健康的饮食习惯，有助于减轻背部痤疮的严重程度。
专业清理： 皮肤科医生和训练有素的皮肤护理专业人员会进行抽取，以去除顽固的粉刺（毛孔堵塞）和白色丘疹，从而降低进一步发炎和感染的风险。
光动力疗法（PDT）： 光动力疗法（PDT）是一种结合使用光和光敏溶液的治疗方法，可针对并消灭导致痤疮的细菌，同时减少油脂分泌和炎症。
Topical Treatments
Over-the-counter or prescription-strength topical medications containing ingredients like benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or retinoids can help unclog pores, reduce inflammation, and prevent new breakouts.
Medicated Cleansers
Using medicated cleansers formulated with acne-fighting ingredients can help keep the back clean and prevent acne breakouts. Look for products containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.
Exfoliation
Regular exfoliation can help remove dead skin cells and prevent pore blockages. However, it's essential to avoid scrubbing too vigorously, as this can irritate the skin and worsen acne.
Oral Medications
In severe cases of back acne, dermatologists may prescribe oral medications such as antibiotics, hormonal therapies, or isotretinoin (commonly known as Accutane) to help control acne from within.
Professional Treatments
Dermatologists in Singapore may offer treatments such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser therapy to help improve the appearance of back acne and reduce scarring.
Lifestyle Modifications
Making lifestyle changes such as wearing breathable clothing, showering after sweating, avoiding excessive sun exposure, and maintaining a healthy diet can help reduce the severity of back acne.
Professional Extraction
Dermatologists or trained skincare professionals may perform extractions to remove stubborn comedones (clogged pores) or whiteheads, reducing the risk of further inflammation and infection.
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)
PDT is a treatment that uses a combination of light and a photosensitizing solution to target and destroy acne-causing bacteria while minimizing oil production and inflammation.
为您的痤疮找到正确的治疗方法
At KINS Clinic, we believe that acne treatments should never be one-size-fits-all.
We understand the importance of tailoring treatments to meet the unique needs of each individual.
That's why our dedicated team of doctors personalises acne treatments specifically for you, taking into account your microbiome health and acne condition.
As a general acne treatment guideline at KINS Clinic, we simplified our acne treatments into 4 "options" to help you understand and prepare you on potential acne treatments that your doctor may propose during the actual consultation.
Acne Treatment Options:
Option 1
Facial Treatment
In the initial phase of treatment, our focus is on managing inflammation. Employing a tailored combination of treatment methods, medications, and post-care products, we can successfully minimize redness and inflammation in the skin.
At KINS Clinic, we use HydraFacial, a patented technology, employs vortex cleansing to purify pores and eliminate micro-blockages that contribute to pimples and acne breakouts. Simultaneously, the facial clears debris and congestion, including blackheads and whiteheads, promoting a thorough cleanse, extraction, and hydration of the skin. After clearing the skin, we utilize Blue Light Therapy to effectively kill off any P.Acne Bacteria on the skin and to strengthen the skin barrier to prevent further inflammation.
After the blue light therapy, we use our signature Aloe Vera mask to soothe redness and cool down the skin, retaining all the moisture within the skin.
As the last step of our Option 1 acne treatment, we complete the routine with our treatment by ending with a Microbiome treatment, using KINS Signature Microbiome skincare products developed by our labs in Japan to help strengthen your skin barrier while improving cellular recovery to help you speed up your acne inflammation recovery.
Option 2
Laser Treatments
In any acne treatment plan, laser treatments play a pivotal role. Lasers effectively focus on the P. acnes bacteria responsible for causing acne breakouts on the skin. Moreover, lasers can be personalized to the acne condition of each individual by setting different wavelengths to target the excess blood vessels around inflamed areas, including scars and pigmentation left behind post-acne healing.
For those seeking a treatment with minimal downtime, our Vbeam laser treatment is a great and effective choice. When administered by a skilled professional, laser treatment for acne is not only swift but also yields excellent results. A single session typically lasts between 10 to 15 minutes, allowing patients to resume their daily activities shortly after the treatment.

Option 3
Topical Treatments
Topical medications offer a variety of targeted ingredients demonstrably effective in managing acne vulgaris. Common topical agents fall into three main categories:
Topical Retinoids: Tretinoin, Adapalene, and Tazarotene are prescriptions that effectively target comedonal acne (blackheads & whiteheads) by keeping skin pores clean and preventing future breakouts.
Antibacterial Agents: Benzoyl peroxide, Clindamycin, and Erythromycin are antibiotic warriors that fight acne-causing bacteria, reducing their numbers and calming inflammation.
Keratolytic Agents: Salicylic acid, Hydroxy acid, and Azelaic acid act like gentle exfoliators, dissolving away dead skin cells that clog pores and contribute to pimples. Imagine them as pore-clearing cheerleaders, helping trapped pimples shrink and fade.
Option 4
Oral & Topical Treatments
Recommended only for serious acne conditions, there are generally 3 types of oral medications that a doctor may prescribe, depending on your acne and health condition:
Oral Antibiotics: Helps your body to fight acne bacteria and reduce inflammation. Oral antibiotics like Doxycycline, Tetracycline, Minocycline, and Erythromycin tackle the P. acnes bacteria that contribute to acne, calming inflammation and reducing breakouts.
Oral Isotretinoin: Recommended for stubborn and tough acne. When other treatments fall short, oral isotretinoin, a powerful retinoid, steps in. It shrinks oil glands, clears inflammation, and tackles even severe nodulocystic acne effectively.
Hormonal Therapy: Helps balances your hormonal level to attain clearer skin. For hormonal acne, options like birth control pills and Spironolactone can be powerful allies. They help regulate hormones to prevent breakouts before they start.
Option 5
Microbiome skincare
In addition to undergoing clinical acne treatments, it is imperative to ensure that your daily skincare routine is well-balanced and tailored to your specific skin type to sustain the achieved results.
Incorporating a range of Microbiome skincare products can help strengthen and boost skin recovery and prevent acne bacteria and inflammations without feeling tightness or excessive dryness.
