How to speed up the maturation of a pimple: drugs, folk recipes

Accelerating the process of maturation of an inflamed pimple is not such a difficult task. To solve it, warming and anti-inflammatory medications are used to accelerate blood flow in the area of the epidermis that has been affected by acne. As a result of this, all processes inside the pimple are accelerated and maturation occurs 2-3 times faster than it would be naturally. Accelerating the metabolism inside the inflamed acne is necessary so that the cycle of the formation of the pimple stem and its disintegration occurs as quickly as possible. In this case, there is no need to squeeze out acne or use strong antibacterial ointments to remove them. In addition to pharmaceutical drugs, you can also use traditional medicine in the form of warming compresses.

Types of problematic skin rashes

Acne is a single or multiple rash caused by inflammatory processes in the sebaceous glands of the skin.

The process of active appearance and maturation of acne is often observed in adolescents. Sometimes even one pimple on the face can make you feel a lot of discomfort. Puberty also entails some problems, but more often it is young people who wonder how to get rid of rashes. Due to the acceleration of the production of the androgen hormone, the formation of subcutaneous fat is stimulated. It does not leave the body completely and clogs the pores. As a result, acne appeared. They can be divided into the following types:

Comedones. There are open and closed. The first are blackheads that appear when external dirt and dust interact with sebum, turning it black. The second are small white pimples.
Internal pimples are inflamed red bumps. They grow slowly and can be painful.
Papules are comedones infected with bacteria. In appearance, these are red, inflamed acne, similar to subcutaneous balls or nodes. Due to the accumulation of pus, which has ruptured the lower layer of the epithelium, swelling appears. Deep papules are red or bluish in color and are painful to the touch.
Pustules. They are large infected acne with a purulent accumulation, the color ranges from white and yellow to bluish, depending on the infection and stage. Unauthorized squeezing of an immature pimple will lead to serious negative consequences.

Reasons for appearance

Acne is an accumulation of sebaceous gland secretions, pus and impurities trapped in the pores on the face. They rarely appear on healthy skin that is not prone to oiliness.

Factors predisposing to the occurrence of acne are the following:

Severe stress. This is why most rashes appear on the eve of any important events. Any stress increases the release of special hormones that affect the secretion of glands located in the skin.
Oily skin type. It is a priori more prone to acne formation. With this type of skin, the secretion of the sebaceous glands is secreted in large quantities. Because of this, the excretory ducts become clogged and often become inflamed.
Incorrect care. The use of products that are not suitable for a certain skin type negatively affects its condition, in particular the functioning of the glands. Based on this, separate types of cosmetics and care products are produced for owners of different types.
Period of the menstrual cycle. Most often, most pimples pop up a few days before your period. This is how many girls determine the approach of their period. The deterioration of the skin these days is due to the corresponding hormonal changes in the body.
Poor nutrition. Eating large amounts of fatty and fried foods has a negative effect on the condition of the skin. At the same time, if you eat healthy foods and drink a lot of purified water, your facial skin will quickly cleanse.
Chronic diseases. Pathologies of the gastrointestinal tract play a special role. If any of them does not work properly, acne appears on a certain area of the face.
Failure to comply with personal hygiene rules. The habit of constantly touching your face with dirty hands or falling asleep without washing off your makeup leads to the contact of pathogenic microorganisms on the skin, which provoke the development of inflammation.

Often there is a complex influence of several reasons.

Signs and speed of maturation

The cause and treatment must be prescribed by a doctor.
If the problem of rashes is regular, there are many of them, the acne is painful and inflamed, you should seek help from a professional. In the case when the acne is shallow, does not hurt, and the pimple is mature and small, you can squeeze it out at home. When a pimple is just ripening, it is worth having the procedure done by a cosmetologist. If this is not possible, then it needs to pass, processing is carried out until it is ripe. A ripe pimple has practically broken through the upper layer of the epithelium and sticks out with a white head. Redness and swelling disappear, there is no pain. On average, the ripening process lasts one to two weeks; an internal pimple takes longer to mature.

How to make a pimple ripen faster

The appearance of acne on the skin is due to lack of human hygiene, abnormal functioning of the sebaceous glands or other reasons. There are types of acne that can appear on the human body:

Subcutaneous - it is located under the upper layers of the epidermis, looks like a small ball, which manifests itself as redness and pain when touched;
Purulent - located on the surface of the skin. The core has a white purulent content.

Ripe pimples can be carefully opened and the contents removed. Before performing the operation, it is recommended to clean the skin, disinfect the area and wash your hands thoroughly before exposure.

In order for the subcutaneous inflamed papule to mature faster, you can use traditional methods:

Salt – you can use simple table salt, but to get maximum effect it is better to use sea salt. The salt is slightly diluted with boiled water until it takes on the consistency of gruel. When the required structure is obtained, the product is applied to the skin and left for several minutes. Due to its effect, salt easily and quickly draws the contents of a subcutaneous pimple out;
Potatoes – raw potatoes are grated on a fine grater and the resulting pulp is applied to the inflamed area. You can use a bandage to be safe. After 2-3 hours, the compress is removed. If necessary, play several times;
Aloe – cut an aloe leaf from the lower tiers, cut it lengthwise and apply it to the pimple. After a few hours, remove the sheet. The mucous substance will steam the skin and draw out the internal contents. There are no contraindications for use;
Iodine is not the best option for eliminating the problem. But with targeted short-term exposure, there is a chance to quickly neutralize the inflamed pimple. Often the use of the product has a negative effect on the skin - it can cause a burn.

Before dealing with inflammation and skin rashes, it is worth understanding the cause of painful acne. Perhaps the problem lies in the abnormal functioning of the internal organs, causing the appearance of an unflattering appearance.

Preventive methods

What to do with acne that is just growing and how to remove it is to give it time to mature and properly care for it, because premature removal contributes to the spread of infection. At the stage when it is maturing, it is better to go to a cosmetologist to quickly remove the pimple and understand how to help your face stay clean. Preventing a problem is easier than fixing it. It is important to follow the following principles on what to do to make acne disappear forever:

Cleansing. Regular washing will not only invigorate or remove makeup, but also keep your skin clean.
Proper nutrition. This point is one of the most important in life. What we eat affects our body.
Correct selection of decorative and skincare cosmetics. When choosing and purchasing, you should always pay attention to whether the product is suitable for your skin type, composition and expiration date.
Sport.

An immature pimple causes discomfort, but there is no need to try to squeeze it out. After adolescence, skin problems disappear, although sometimes even more careful care is required. The main thing is to understand that the problem is solvable, and then you will be able to cope with it more quickly. Modern pharmacology and cosmetology products, as well as traditional medicine, will help you cope with the task.

Why shouldn't you squeeze pimples*?

It is necessary that the contents of the inflammatory pimple* come out naturally. It is not recommended to attempt to eliminate the rash by squeezing it. This is fraught with the following complications:

introduction of secondary infection;
spread of inflammation;
skin injury;
worsening rashes.

To accelerate the maturation of acne, folk remedies and medications are used. The main mistake is that patients often rely on advice from the Internet, rather than on the prescriptions of their doctor.

Home care for problem skin

When caring for your skin, maximum attention should be paid to cleansing. Currently, gel-based washes with a high pH are widespread. They irritate the skin less, but often “under-wash” it. This can be easily determined by running your finger over your cheek after washing your face. Ideally, clean skin resists and literally “creaks” from cleanliness. If the skin is not sufficiently cleansed, there will be a “film” feeling. Therefore, experienced dermatologists often recommend that their patients wash their face with... soap. But the choice of soap is also a responsible matter; varieties with moisturizing components are absolutely not suitable. There are also gels that wash the skin well, but it is better to entrust their choice to a dermatologist.

The choice of care product is also of great importance. Problem skin does not tolerate creams with a dense texture, since the mouths of the glands immediately become clogged with the fatty base of the cream. At the same time, alcohol and other drying “rubs”, “burners” and cleansers severely dehydrate the skin. This leads to the development of the phenomenon of so-called “oily dry skin” - the mouths of the glands are clogged with sebum, and the surface of the skin is overdried. The ideal choice in this case is a light gel-based serum with no or minimal fat content. It is also better to entrust the choice of serum to a dermatocosmetologist. Sometimes it's best to choose a serum that's marketed as "anti-aging" even though it contains great anti-acne ingredients.
