What Is Picking Acne & How Is it Formed?

Picking acne is a kind of Skin Picking Disorder (SPD). It happens when a person picks, scratches, or rubs an acne lesion, which ultimately makes the acne look worse. This kind of acne is concerned with mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

Who Is at Risk?

Most of the time, picking acnes are formed on the face of adolescent girls or young women, but anyone can have them.

Our Treatments for Picking Acne

At Vogue Clinic, we use up-to-date technological types of equipment fused with advanced dermatology suggestions to treat the picking acne on face. Our treatment consists of two phases, which include:


1) Treating Acne

We use various successful approaches to treat your acne, including:

-Topical Treatments: Drugs applied to the skin through retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, or antibiotics help decrease inflammation and eliminate bacteria while stopping pore blockages.

-Oral Medications: Oral Medications: Antibiotics, contraceptives, or isotretinoin (Accutane) for severe cases.

-Procedures: Chemical peels combined with laser therapy and extractions serve to treat acne.

-Corticosteroid Injections: When delivered through injections corticosteroids work to decrease inflammatory response for rapid healing of painful cysts.

-Extraction & Drainage: The procedure of extraction & drainage performs safe removals of blackheads together with whiteheads and large cysts.

Managing Skin Picking

-Psychotherapy: The combination of psychotherapy treatment which includes CBT and habit reversal therapy assists patients in managing their impulse to pick.

-Medication: Premature utilization of SSRIs aids in decreasing both anxiety and compulsive skin-picking behavior.

-Alternative Therapies: Research shows that patients who take N-acetylcysteine (NAC) have positive results in lowering their desire to pick at their skin.

-Early Acne Treatment: Early treatment of acne reduces the desire to resort to picking behavior.
