Treatment of Severe Nodular Cystic Acne

Cystic acne - Cyst: a sac or space (commonly in the lower layer of the skin) that contains fluid or semi-solid material. Cysts are large, inflamed acne lesions that are filled with pus. They occur when the contents of a clogged pore seeps into the skin, thus producing a significant local immune response. Cystic acne can be painful and leave scars.

People with nodules or cysts should be treated by a dermatologist. For patients with severe inflammatory acne that does not improve with antibiotic medicines, a doctor may prescribe isotretinoin (Accutane*), a retinoid. Isotretinoin is an oral drug that is usually taken once or twice a day with food for 15 to 20 weeks. It markedly reduces the size of the oil glands so that much less oil is produced. As a result, the growth of bacteria is decreased.

Also, if a particular brand name is not mentioned, this does not mean or imply that the product is unsatisfactory.

Advantages of Isotretinoin (Accutane)
Isotretinoin is a very effective medicine that can help prevent scarring. After 15 to 20 weeks of treatment with isotretinoin, acne completely or almost completely goes away in up to 90 percent of patients. In those patients where acne recurs after a course of isotretinoin, the doctor may institute another course of the same treatment or prescribe other medicines.

Disadvantages of Isotretinoin (Accutane)
Isotretinoin can cause birth defects in the developing fetus of a pregnant woman. It is important that women of childbearing age are not pregnant and do not get pregnant while taking this medicine. Women must use two separate effective forms of birth control at the same time for 1 month before treatment begins, during the entire course of treatment, and for 1 full month after stopping the drug. They should ask their doctor when it is safe to get pregnant after they have stopped taking Accutane.

Some people with acne become depressed by the changes in the appearance of their skin. Changes in mental health may be intensified during treatment or soon after completing a course of medicines like Accutane. A doctor should be consulted if a person feels unusually sad or has other symptoms of depression, such as loss of appetite or trouble concentrating.

Other possible side effects include dry eyes, mouth, lips, nose, or skin; itching; nosebleeds; muscle aches; sensitivity to the sun; and, sometimes, poor night vision. More serious side effects include changes in the blood, such as an increase in triglycerides and cholesterol, or a change in liver function. To make sure Accutane is stopped if side effects occur, the doctor monitors blood studies that are done before treatment is started and periodically during treatment. Side effects usually go away after the medicine is stopped.

What our customers say: "I am 33 yrs old and have had cystic acne for 10 years. I did not like being on antibiotics all the time and tried dozens of other products before I found yours. I can't say that it completely prevents the cysts from appearing but they are much less frequent and much less severe. The cream has also helped the dark patches that appeared on my face while I was pregnant with my sons. Thank you for your help!"

BIOSKINFORTE - Natural Acne Treatment Balm
A gentle yet powerful solution for acne breakouts and even stubborn acne cysts that have not been amenable to other treatments

This acne cream yields what no other natural acne product does for recurrent stubborn acne and acne cysts because of the synergistic benefit of combining our biological serum with the most potent botanicals:

a) Inca Inchi Oil the richest vegetable oil in Omega-3 fatty acids. A powerful anti-inflammatory and with the ability to correct the deficit of linoleic acid in hair follicles which is a trigger of immoderate inflammatory reactions from our immune system. The oil is also a factor that reduces sebum output;

b) Helix Aspersa Müller Glycoconjugates, the miraculous serum, from a living creature with skin similar to human skin who never suffers from skin infections and acts as an effective adaptogen, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, trigger of skin repair and skin regeneration, and enzyme dissolver of blocked pores;

c) Licorice Root Extract (*) an antimicrobial with potent activity against acne bacteria, anti-inflammatory, anti-irritant, antioxidant, and an inhibitor of sebum production;

d) Alpine Willow herb extract (Epilobium Fleischeri) a botanical source of keratolytic salicylic acid in a natural form, and an antimicrobial;

e) Essential oil from the roots of Coleus Forskohlii with strong antimicrobial activity and a strong medicinal smell that you might not appreciate for about 20 minutes until it fades away.

The smell is a small price you pay for an "essential" component of BIOSKINFORTE for it activates many of your more than 10 million olfactory receptor neurones. But its nothing = "nada" when compared to the value you get: the strongest remedy that effectively heals and contains acne breakouts without any side effects on your body or skin. You always have the choice to behave as if you were a warrior and just use the product without previously messing with your nose inside the jar.

f) Hyaluronic Acid a glycosaminoglycan (also present in the snail serum) that deeply moisturizes the skin and restores the capacity of the skin to hold in water;

g) An extract from the fruit of black pepper which enhances the penetration of the active ingredients.

Apply a little of this acne cream twice a day on all the area affected by acne cysts or stubborn pimples (whole face, chest or back).

BIO ACNE CARE
Gentle but effective acne treatment serum for pimples & acne cysts, specially for those on the chest or back.

The product is oil free and contains the following ingredients that act in concert to yield benefits that go beyond the sum of those of their specific parts:

a) our biological Helix Aspersa Müller Glycoconjugates with antioxidant, antimicrobial & skin regeneration properties to heal skin lesions within the follicles, control acne bacteria and prevent and get rid of acne scars;

b) the active extract of the bark of the Black willow ( Salix Nigra) tree to enhance cell renewal on the surface of the skin, unclog pores and reduce acneic skin flora (Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus aureus). The actual content of willow (Salix Nigra) extract expressed as standarized salicylic acid is less than 0.5%. The Salix Nigra extract also provides natural B-hydroxy acid activity, without the skin irritation commonly associated with synthetic salicylic acid;

c) modified glucomannan (carbohydrate) -high molecular weight heterpolysaccharides made up of glucose and mannose derived from the Japanese Konjac tuber (root)- that reduce the surface tension of oil and facilitates its dispersion into droplets. These droplets get distributed evenly along the skin’s surface, minimizing their presence and oily feel;

d) Hyaluronic Acid a glycosaminoglycan (also present in the snail serum) to deeply moisturize the skin and restore the capacity of the skin to hold in moisture; and seaweed extracts that provide moisture and trace minerals necessary for the recovery of damaged skin cells; and sodium salt of pyroglutamic acid (naturally in human skin) moisturizer;

e) Japanese Licochalcone LR-15 from Licorice (Glycyrrhiza inflate) extract which clinicals (*) in Japan have shown that at very low concentration reduces undesired p. acnes and other acneic skin flora, is anti-irritating, anti-inflammatory and reduces sebum output. 

Apply a thin layer twice a day on all the area affected with acne (whole face, chest or back) and then always use sun protection.  If you are allergic to salycilic acid or to aspirin do not use the product and if you experience stinging or irritation (very unlikely) you must stop using the product and consult your physician.

Abstract: Licochalcone-A, Polyol Soluble Licorice Extract P-U (now in the market as Licochalcone LR-15), prepared from the roots of Glycyrrhiza Inflata Batalin shows several activities such as inhibitory actions of testosterone 5 ALPHA-reductase, lipase and phospholipase A2, as well as androgen receptor antagonist, antimicrobial and SOD-like antioxidant actions, which relate to skin care, especially the suppression of acne formation and development. On basis of this evidence, a trial with acne patients was carried out and the efficacy of the extract was demonstrated clinically.
