The main causes of acne spots on the face

Acne or pimples of other origins leave behind spots of a red, pinkish or bluish tint. Their color becomes stronger or weaker, but rarely the spots disappear on their own.

Causes of stains:

1. Residual effects after inflammatory processes on the skin. When inflammation penetrates into the deep layers of the skin, melanin concentration occurs in the localized area, and red spots appear. It takes quite a long time for them to completely disappear.
2. The skin reacts to minor injuries by developing blue spots. This phenomenon can occur after independent attempts to get rid of acne by squeezing. The condition worsens if an infection occurs during squeezing - inflammation will lead to increased pigmentation.
3. If the skin of the face is not subjected to timely and proper cleansing, then there is a high risk of pustular infections appearing on it. Inflamed white pimples, without hygienic treatment, leave behind red spots.

Ways to get rid of acne spots

The best way to remove stains is to prevent them from occurring. To do this, if acne or pimples of another etiology appear, you must consult a dermatologist and undergo appropriate treatment. In addition to treatment with special medications, it is necessary to avoid direct sunlight on the inflamed skin, especially during periods of increased sun activity. You can reduce the negative impact of UV rays, which provoke an increase in melanin synthesis, by using, among other things, cosmetics with a high level of SPF protection.

In the case where spots have already appeared, you can get rid of them using modern cosmetic techniques and medications.

The most effective techniques used by cosmetologists:

1. Microdermabrasion;
2. Phototherapy;
3. Chemical peel using primarily glycolic acid.

Peels to remove red acne spots can be done at home. If the stain is less than one year old.

To reduce pigmentation after acne, medications are most often used, which include:

1. Azelaic acid – “Skinoren”, “Azogel”, “Azelik”;
2. Retinol – “Retin-A”, “Klenzit”, “Differin”;
3. Vitamin C;
4. Hydroquinone;
5. Licorice extract;

What is badyaga

Badyaga is a member of the protozoan family: it is a sponge resembling algae that lives at the bottom of clean fresh water bodies.

The smallest needles that form the skeleton of the sponge contain silicon oxide and the protein spongin. After collection, the sponge is thoroughly cleaned, dried and crushed. As a result, we have a grayish-greenish powder with a not very pleasant odor.

On sale, preparations based on badyagi are presented as powders in sachets of 6-10 g, or as ointments and gels.

The most popular preparations with badyaga today are gel - Badyaga Forte, Badyaga 911. They help get rid of residual effects after acne and other skin damage.

Badyagi powder is also very popular due to its natural concentrated composition with a high percentage of effectiveness.

How it works

When applied to the skin, tiny needles expose it to numerous microscopic injuries, causing peeling of the upper layers.

In addition to the exfoliating effect, the use of badyagi in skin preparations promotes:

1. Increased blood circulation in the treated areas of the skin;
2. Cleansing and tightening pores.

Thanks to the exfoliating, cleansing and blood supply-improving effects, tissue oxygenation, regeneration and resorption of minor compactions in the form of scars are enhanced.

Indications for the use of drugs with badyaga

Considering that preparations with badyaga are medicinal products, you should consult a doctor before using them. This will help increase the expected effect and avoid unnecessary complications. Like all medications, drugs containing badyaga have a number of indications and contraindications.

Preparations with badyaga are recommended for use for the following purposes:

1. removal of spots after acne, blackheads
2. stimulation of blood supply and strengthening of regenerative functions in aging skin;
3. whitening pigmentation of various etiologies;
4. resorption of bruises under the eyes that are hereditary in nature; arising from overwork; hematomas from bruises

It is prohibited to use drugs with badyaga if the patient:

1. thin, sensitive, dry skin that is prone to flaking and redness. At the same time, the irritating effect of drugs with badyaga can worsen the general condition of the skin;
2. the skin is inflamed and covered with pimples, even slightly. Badyaga, which has a powerful absorbable effect, helps to relieve the inflammatory process;
3. the presence of hypertrichosis, in which facial hair growth occurs, is an obstacle to the use of drugs with badyaga, since it stimulates blood supply, and, consequently, the growth of hair follicles.

The use of drugs based on badyagi

There are a lot of products containing badyagu, so it will not be difficult for anyone to choose for themselves exactly the drug that is more convenient and best suited. In this case, treatment can be carried out with comfort, receiving from the process not only the desired result, but also the maximum of positive emotions.

All preparations containing badyaga have an irritating effect, so they should be used with caution and avoid contact with mucous membranes, especially the eyes. In case of contact, rinse the affected area with plenty of cool water and seek medical attention.

1. The most convenient to use of the entire line of preparations with badyaga is the gel.

2. Ammonium salt of sulfonic acid;
3. Extractive extract of horse chestnut and chamomile;
4. Oils: tea tree, arnica, peppermint and juniper.

Before applying the gel to the skin, it must be cleansed. The gel is applied in a thin layer, exposure time is 20 minutes in the absence of burning or discomfort. Then the residues are washed off with warm water and a nourishing cream is applied.

1. With all its advantages, gel with badyagi does not relieve the skin of old and not very old acne spots - for this, masks or creams with badyagi powder are preferable.

You can use the powder only after you are convinced that there are no unwanted effects after using gels with badyagi.

Acne spot remover powder is more effective than gel.

In addition, it has a smoothing and rejuvenating effect on the skin.

1. Is Badyaga effective for acne - reviews from a practicing dermatologist,
2. Can Badyaga help with acne spots?

Badyaga is a preparation that is obtained from dried and crushed colonies of freshwater sponges (Fig. 1). The skeleton of these sponges consists of very small needles, which are composed of silicon oxide and the protein spongin. The effect of the drug is based on causing a large number of microscopic injuries to the skin during use.

Many patients with acne and pimples ask: can badyaga help with acne or acne marks? This article was written by a professional dermatologist and below we will look at exactly how Badyaga can affect you if you have acne, or have scars and age spots after acne.

Composition and release form –

1. powder for preparing a suspension in sachets of 6 or 10 g (Fig. 2-4),
2. in the form of gels for external use (Badyaga and Badyaga-Forte), which are produced by different manufacturers (Fig. 5-6).

Effects of the drug Badyaga –
Badyagi's main effect is a strong irritant effect on the skin, which is a consequence of numerous microtraumas caused by sharp needles. It is these microtraumas that cause acceleration of blood supply and skin regeneration processes at the site of application of the badyagi. Accelerating blood flow in turn may have a mild anti-inflammatory effect, which can be used in the treatment of the following conditions.

Indications for use, according to instructions –

1. hematomas and bruises,
2. neuralgia, radiculitis,
3. pain in muscles and joints of a rheumatic nature,
4. for badyagi-forte additionally - for age spots and acne.

Commentary on the testimony –
the instructions show the incompetence of the manufacturer, who does not even know that age spots can appear on the skin only when acne heals, but not acne. With acne, there is no inflammation in the skin, because... acne is just fatty plugs in the pores of the skin (Fig. 8-9). And the formation of pigment spots in acne is associated precisely with the deposition of the melanin pigment in inflamed areas of the skin, which is observed specifically with acne (Fig. 10).

1. Badyaga for acne and acne -

Many patients think that since dermatologists often prescribe chemical peeling procedures or drugs with a peeling effect for pimples and acne, then Badyaga for acne and acne can help. In fact, the sharp tips of the needles do not exfoliate the skin, they only injure it with the sharp tips, causing micro-punctures in the skin.

Let us remember that acne and pimples are completely different things. And if in case of acne (when there is no bacterial inflammation), the use of badyagi, although pointless, can still go away without complications, then in case of acne, in which there is purulent inflammation of the hair follicles, microtraumas of the skin can lead to bacterial complications and inflammation of the skin.

Important : The gold standard for acne treatment is primarily benzoyl peroxide-based preparations, followed by topical antibacterial gels based on clindamycin or erythromycin. If you have acne, then first of all, retinoids are prescribed. If you have a mixed form of acne, in which you have both blackheads and pimples at the same time, these drugs are combined.

2. Badyaga for acne spots -

To understand whether Badyaga will help with acne spots, you first need to understand the types of acne spots. Acne spots come in two types: most often red spots, less often brown ones.

1. Spots of brown shades (Fig. 11) –
   appear due to excess melanin formation in inflamed areas of the skin. This is called post-inflammatory pigmentation. Its occurrence can be completely prevented or minimized if acne is treated correctly, and not independently with folk remedies.

Badyaga forms many micro-punctures in the skin, but at the same time it does not have a pilling effect, nor does it break down melanin, which makes up brown pigment spots (unlike some chemicals, for example, hydroquinone, as well as IPL devices).

1. Red spots (Fig. 12) –
   Such spots are called in cosmetology the term “post-inflammatory erythema.” Such spots are formed as a result of persistent long-term dilation of blood capillaries at the site of inflammation on the skin (for example, in the area of ​​a pimple). Treatment of post-inflammatory erythema should never be carried out with badyaga.

Badyaga, injuring the skin with microneedles, causes blood flow to the treated area. Imagine what will happen to your dilated capillaries and the intensity of the red spots... The capillaries will expand even more, and the spots will become even more intense.

Conclusions -

Badyaga in no way can lead to the disappearance of age spots, much less post-inflammatory red erythema. If you see on any websites photos of patients whose age spots supposedly disappeared, then these photos (upon closer analysis) turn out to be downloaded from foreign sites for acne treatment, and have nothing to do with treatment with badyaga...

In addition, if you expose areas of skin treated with badyaga to the active sun, you may get an even more uneven complexion, because injured skin will be many times more sensitive to ultraviolet radiation. Therefore, when using this product in the summer/spring, you must use sunscreen for at least a week after the procedure.

What drugs and techniques are effective for removing stains -

Normally, areas of inflammatory hyperpigmentation (brown spots) usually go away on their own within 3 to 24 months. However, you can prevent their appearance altogether if you treat acne with the right medications and regimens. At the same time, in addition to medications during periods of high solar activity, you should always use sunscreens, which will reduce the synthesis of melanin (including in areas of inflammation).

Medicines to reduce brown spots from acne -

1. preparations with azelaic acid (Skinoren, Azelik, Azogel),
2. retinoid drugs (Differin, Klenzit, Retin-A),
3. skin care products with vitamin C,
4. hydroquinone creams (prescription),
5. licorice extract.

Medical treatments to treat red spots after acne –

1. phototherapy (vascular type laser or IPL devices),
2. microdermabrasion procedure,
3. superficial chemical peeling procedures with glycolic acid, which can be done even at home.

3. Badyaga for acne marks (scars) –

To understand whether Badyaga will help with acne scars in the form of scars, let’s look at the types of scars that form with acne. Acne scars can be of 2 types -

1. atrophic, which look like small depressions in the skin (Fig. 16-17),
2. hypertrophic, which protrude above the surface of the skin (Fig. 18).

Does Badyaga help with acne marks (scars) that form during the healing of large inflammatory lesions? Badyaga is simply in NO WAY capable of affecting either type of scars.

Let us repeat: many websites and blogs post photographs of patients supposedly Before and After using badyagi, which in fact have nothing to do with treatment with this remedy. With a simple search, these pictures turn out to be downloaded from foreign sites, and the patients in these pictures were actually treated with real remedies, and not with “badyaga”.

What treatment for scars will be effective -

1) In the presence of atrophic scars -
Most often, atrophic scars remain after acne. They can be corrected using...

1. Injections of intradermal fillers (for example, Restylane).
2. The use of remedies for scars and scars, in particular the use of Contactubex, can have some effect.
3. A permanent effect is achieved by using a laser (pulsed or Fraxel laser).

2) In the presence of hard hypertrophic scars –
First of all, cortisone injections are given inside such scars to make them softer and flatter. Also, if the scars are fresh, then special ointments for the teeth can give a certain effect.

3) In the presence of both hypertrophic and atrophic scars -

1. Dermatobrasion procedure is very effective,
2. medium or deep professional chemical peeling procedures.

Using badyagi on the face for peeling –

With regular use of irritating products, sensitive facial skin will lose its elasticity and also acquire a bluish tint. This is due to the fact that skin microtraumas will heal not only due to an increase in the amount of collagen and elastin (which gives elasticity to the skin), but due to dense fibrous connective tissue. The latter will cause thickening and roughening of the skin.

A bluish tint to the skin will appear as a result of a deterioration in its blood supply, because... Dense connective tissue has significantly fewer blood vessels than loose connective tissue. The likelihood of fungal and infectious skin diseases also increases, because there will be many microholes in the skin, which are the entrance gates for infection.

Badyaga is an inexpensive pharmaceutical product that is successfully used in home skin care. This drug is extracted from a freshwater sponge. Its skeleton consists of tiny needles (spicules). The healing properties of the sponge help eliminate hematomas, promote skin lightening and regeneration. In addition, badyaga is effective against acne spots and small post-acne scars.

The drug is available in the form of a powder for the manufacture of an external agent or in the form of a ready-to-use gel.

How effective is badyaga against acne spots?

Microscopic needles present in the drug have an irritating effect, causing many injuries invisible to the eye. The skin reacts to irritation by increasing its protective functions and accelerating the regeneration process. Blood rushes to the surface of the epidermis, enhancing the anti-inflammatory effect.

The formation of spots after acne is caused by the deposition of melanin pigment in areas of inflammation. In this case, the spots turn brown. This post-acne effect is called post-inflammatory pigmentation. Badyaga, causing cell renewal processes in the surface of the skin, helps restore the normal color of the damaged area. It will also effectively help get rid of fresh scars left by acne.

However, if the spots become red after inflammation, this is a consequence of the expansion of capillaries in the area of ​​inflammation. In cosmetology, this process is called post-inflammatory erythema. You should not use badyagu if you have red spots from acne. When the skin receives microtraumas, already dilated capillaries become even more deformed. This can cause the problem to worsen and the area of ​​irritation to spread.

How to use

The product in powder form must be diluted with boiled water until a creamy slurry forms. You can also use hydrogen peroxide instead of water. This mixture is applied to those areas where acne spots have formed or traces of scars remain. A gel or ointment based on badyagi is already completely ready for use. They should be applied very carefully, without rubbing into the skin and avoiding contact with the mucous membranes of the nose or eyes.

The instructions for the drug say that the contact time with the skin should be 15 – 20 minutes. But it is necessary to take into account the degree of dryness and sensitivity of the skin. Not everyone is able to withstand this time due to the strong burning sensation. For sensitive, thin skin, 5 to 10 minutes may be enough. And if she is prone to increased fat formation and is not very sensitive, then it may take a longer time to feel the effect.

Wash off the composition with warm water or carefully remove with a damp cotton pad. After the mask, the feeling of warmth and tingling remains for several hours. Do not immediately apply cream or other cosmetics. It should take about an hour for the irritated skin to calm down.

It is best to use badyagu in the evening or on a weekend. This way, the face will not be exposed to aggressive environmental factors (wind, dust, etc.) In the days following the use of the product, it is necessary to protect the face from sunlight.

Badyaga for spots after acne in the form of masks

Badyagu can be used not only as an independent remedy. It goes well with many ingredients and can be a great addition to homemade cosmetic masks.

Cleansing mask with badyaga

To prepare a cleansing mask that acts more gently than pure badyagi preparation, use white clay. To do this, mix 3 tablespoons of clay powder with 1 spoon of badyagi (both powder and gel are suitable) and add 1 spoon of talcum powder. This mixture is diluted with water until a homogeneous paste is obtained. Apply to the face for 10 – 15 minutes. To prevent the clay from being too tight on your face, you need to periodically moisten it with water. After removing the mask, 1 hour should pass, then you can use a moisturizer or nourishing cream to relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

This cleansing procedure can be done every 2 to 3 days. The course of treatment should consist of 5 – 10 procedures. It is not recommended to use badyagu for longer.

Mask with badyaga and oatmeal

This recipe allows you to use badyagu even for very sensitive skin. To prepare the mask, mix a spoonful of pharmaceutical powder with 2 tablespoons of oatmeal or ground oatmeal. The mixture is diluted with cream and a thick viscous mass is obtained. Apply it for 15 minutes and then rinse with warm water.

Mask with badyaga and egg

You can reduce the irritating effect of badyagi by mixing it with beaten egg white. To achieve a more liquid consistency for ease of application, add a little milk to this mass. This mask perfectly brightens and improves complexion. But only if you don’t overdo it with the time of contact with the skin and the duration of the course. The product should only be applied for 10 – 15 minutes. The break between sessions should be at least 3 days. And the duration of the course can consist of 5 – 6 procedures.

Precautions when using badyagi

To ensure that the use of badyagi to eliminate acne spots does not cause side effects, you should follow some precautions:

1. After use, do not immediately go outside. At least 3 hours must pass.
2. The product must be applied in a sanitary manner. To avoid infection, it is better to use a sponge, soft brush or use sterile gloves for application.
3. Do not rub into skin.
4. Do not apply bodyagu to areas with inflammation, fresh wounds, or unhealed acne.
5. If a strong burning sensation occurs, wash off the product immediately, even if the recommended time is not maintained.
6. Do not apply decorative cosmetics for 12 hours after using badyagi.
7. It is better to try not to touch your face at all on the first day after treatment with badyaga.

Proper use of badyagi has a positive effect on the appearance and condition of the skin. It is important not to abuse this product and use it in compliance with the manufacturer's recommendations and precautions.
