There it is again, that big painful red bump. It might as well be a big flashing sign that says “Look at me and my ugly face!” No matter what the age or gender seeing a pimple appear certainly can make a person feel a little debbie downer even on a good day.

These are your basic acne which just appears after having a clogged pore. A closed comedo is a clogged pore that stays under the skin to form a white bump on the surface of your skin aka whitehead. While on the other hand a clogged pore that opens up are open comedos that appear black on the surface aka blackheads. Everyone freaks out wondering why they are black in color but the truth is blackheads aren’t dirt. Instead its just the produce of excess oil left over reacting with the air. Blackheads are very hard to avoid as they are the result of hormone changes which teenagers go through as a normal stage. Blackheads are just one of the unfortunate parts of going through puberty.

The Beauty Industry being such a wide market of services and products include providing for the care of our skin, hair, selling of perfumes and cosmetics (“What is the Beauty Industry?”2014) and now developing more extensively into basic cosmetic surgery and treatments, now gives society a big opportunity to pamper and nourish themselves in more extensive ways. Throughout this essay, the branches of dermatology and dermal therapies will be explained; common skin disorders and specifically a treatment called ‘Ultrasonic Peeling’ and how it can potentially help with skin disorders imposed today will be explored and described in detail. After the investigation of what Ultrasonic Peeling is and how it works, I will also state my opinion on how well I think the treatment benefits its users, give my evaluation if I would consider using it, what I think the positives and negatives are and in scenario, assess whether it is a treatment that more salons should consider offering.

Acne vulgaris is the most common cutaneous disorder affecting adolescents and young adults. Acne vulgaris is a disease of pilosabaceous follicles with four pathogenic factors. These factors are follicular hyperkeratinization, increased sebum production, infection with Propionibacterium acnes within the follicle, and resulting inflammation. Follicular hyperkeratinization is increased proliferation and decreased desquamation of keratinocytes lining the follicular orifice. This results in partial obstruction of the follicle with sebum and keratin, the microcomedo. Sebaceous glands enlarge with adrenarche due to DHEA-S rise and sebum production increases. Sebum provides a growth medium for P. acnes, an anaerobic diphtheroid that is

Acne is described as the most common skin disorder that affects 85% of individuals ranging from pre-teenagers to grown adults, specifically between the ages of 12-24 (Tahir 2010). In the midst of the 50 million people affected with acne vulgaris, adolescences are generally most susceptible due to elevated sexual hormones (Zaenglein et al., 2016). Numerous factors increase the production of acne vulgaris. Inadequate diet, menstruation, sweating, over exposure to ultra violet rays and excessive stress influence the appearance of acne (Shamsi et al, 2015). High rates of acne vulgaris occurring in people across the world produce a greater need for antibiotics along with it. Topical and oral antibacterials are the typical forms of treatment yet an innumerable amount of products have been created to medicate the disorder. Bacterial resistance has issued the growing need for newer and
