Acne – chronic relapsing inflammatory skin disease, which is characterized by hypersecretion of sebum, inflammation and blockage of the excretory ducts of the sebaceous glands. The prevalence of this pathology not only in adolescents, but also in older patients makes the treatment of acne one of the most pressing issues in cosmetology. Combined acne therapy with ELDAN Cosmetics and MesoSet, when mesotherapeutic preparations and topical skin care products are combined, gives a pronounced and lasting effect.

Rationale for combination therapy for acne: pathogenesis of the disease

Acne is a polyetiological disease. Its pathogenesis is based on increased secretion of sebum. An excessive amount of sebum contributes to its thickening and increase the pH of the skin; this creates an ideal environment for the reproduction of conditionally pathogenic bacteria Propionibacterium acnes and causes the development of the inflammatory process. Due to the inflammation of the hair follicle and the compaction of sebum, the evacuation of the latter is difficult, which exacerbates the problem. Risk factors include:

  • genetic predisposition,
  • infectious diseases,
  • disruption of the immune, endocrine and digestive systems,
  • Nervous disorders.

The most common cause of acne – androgenic hyperstimulation. The sebaceous glands have receptors for testosterone. With an increased level of androgens (especially characteristic of adolescence), there is an increase in sebum production. The severity of acne also depends on the activity of the 5-α-reductase enzyme contained in skin cells, which converts testosterone to a more active form of the hormone – dihydrotestosterone.

Another common cause of acne is hyperkeratosis – violation of the keratinization of the epidermis, leading to a thickening of the stratum corneum and subsequent mechanical blockage of the ducts of the sebaceous glands. As a result, the evacuation of sebum is disrupted, it thickens, and comedones form. In the future, the process may be aggravated due to the development of inflammation in the places where sebaceous plugs form.

Acne treatments and their key ingredients

Depending on the stage and severity of acne, either a clinical or cosmetic approach is used in the treatment. The latter is used for stage 1 and 2 acne, as well as for stages 3 and 4 in remission.

Mesotherapy for acne differs from conventional mesotherapy in terms of protocols and techniques. First, an agent for application anesthesia is applied; after the expiration of the exposure time, it is completely removed. Then, with one needle, intradermal injections are performed at the sites of localization of inflammatory elements using the technique of forming papules directly in these elements. After treatment of the inflammatory elements, the needle is replaced and further injections are carried out intradermally throughout the area using any technique chosen by the specialist.

The course of treatment includes Acnevect care procedures and subsequent mesotherapy sessions, the interval between which is 7-10 days. The number of procedures depends on the individual characteristics of the course of acne, as well as on previous treatment. On average, 6–8 sessions are recommended.
