Like all chronic skin conditions, acne has degrees of seriousness. A wildly recognised grading system* defines the levels below:
-
Grade 1 (mild): Whiteheads and blackheads with a few papules and pustules.
-
Grade 2 (moderate): Multiple papules and pustules, mostly on the face.
-
Grade 3 (moderately severe): Numerous papules and pustules with occasionally inflamed nodules.
-
Grade 4 (severe): Numerous painful, inflamed pustules and nodules.
For all grades, follow these rules for both prevent & care:
-
Keep skin clean
-
Always remove make-up thoroughly
-
Use a cleansing toner that penetrates pores
-
Apply naturally antibacterial gel or cream
-
Avoid all clogging products on the face
-
Don't squeeze the pimples
