Acne - Prevention and Care Acne - prevention and care published in Kosmetik International 2003 (5), 27-31 Acne is one of the most frequent skin problems beauty institutes are confronted with. Acne customers and above all the younger generation among them often go through a personal ordeal and generally have high expectations of a cosmetic treatment. cne is a disease of the sebaceous follicles be congested or completely blocked. The (the Latin word folliculus means tube) which sebaceous follicles widen and fill with a mixture of A lead into the hair canal (Fig. 1). Sebum sebum and horny cell residues resulting in the which is produced in the sebaceous glands formation of the well-known blackheads or greases skin and hairs, forms a sliding film and whiteheads. Lesions of the sebaceous glands will seals the hair canal against the outside. Just subsequently lead to irritations of the skin. Such around the area where the hair grows to the environment is the perfect living condition for surface the horny layer is more delicate and has a anaerobic bacteria as for example the funnel-like indentation. Thus the sebum released propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes). also transports all the horny layer cells to the surface which have been peeled off. Comedogenic substances Sebum contains among others: Triglycerides (oils) ca. 41% P. acnes produces a series of fatty acids with wax ester ca. 25% comedogenic effects. Additional substances fatty acids ca. 16% causing acne are mineral oils (oil acne), tar (tar squalene ca. 12% acne), chlorinated hydrocarbons (chloracne), diglycerides ca. 2% drugs (acne medicamenta) and cosmetic cholesterol ester ca. 2% substances. Greasing elements take a top cholesterol ca. 1-2% position on the list of cosmetic substances as for example lanolin, cetyl alcohol, saturated fatty acids and their esters which however only react with a simultaneously humid and oily skin. In cases of sensitive skin, ethoxilated alcohols and polyethylene glycols (PEG) play an important part as both are used as emulsifiers and solubilizers. With the influence of ultraviolet rays and atmospheric oxygen they develop peroxides which on their turn will generate aggressive radicals thus causing the so-called Majorca acne. As these substances are widely used the cosmetician is advised to carefully study the INCI declaration. Even today sun protection products still contain these substances. Ethoxilated alcohols can be recognized on the INCI declaration either by their middle or final syllable –eth, as for example ceteareth-10. Acne can also be fostered by tight-fitting clothes as they create a moist and greasy environment. Influence of hormones There are various forms of acne as well as Fig. 1: Sectional view of the skin with horny layer (yellow), various different terms.

  • Drug-Induced Cutaneous Toxicity
    ProvisionalChapter chapter 1 Drug-Induced Cutaneous Toxicity Katsuhiko Yoshizawa, Michiko Yuki and Katsuhiko Yoshizawa, Michiko Yuki and Airo Tsubura Airo Tsubura Additional information is available at the end of the chapter Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/64473 Abstract The skin is the largest organ in the body and is continually exposed to external stimuli, such as chemical and environmental substances. Cutaneous toxicity can be broadly classified according to the mechanism of onset, namely: contact dermatitis, i.e., damage resulting from contact with a substance (irritant dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, chemical burns); photosensitivity, i.e., caused by combined effects of a substance and ultraviolet light (phototoxic dermatitis, photoallergic contact dermatitis); contact urticaria; chemical-induced acne; pigmentary disturbance; drug rash; hair disturbance; nail disturbance; or tumor-induced. This review outlines the function and structure of the skin, outlining characteristics of these types of cutaneous toxicity. In recent years, advances have been made in the development of pharmaceutical products targeting specific molecules or genes and nanotechnology-based pharmaceutical products, raising concerns about the onset of toxicity by novel mechanisms involving new pharmaceutical products. Therefore, it is important to understand the basic toxicity-related changes described herein. Keywords: cutaneous toxicity, drugs, chemicals, toxicity studies 1. Introduction Cutaneous adverse drug or chemical reactions in patients are not common. Among hospitalized patients, the incidence of adverse drug reactions concerning the skin ranges from 1% to 3%; however, the actual prevalence is much higher, as many mild forms of cutaneous adverse reactions are not reported [1].

Polyhalogenated hydrocarbons, coal tar and products, petrol, and other physical, chemical, and environmental agents are suggested to play a role in the etiology of occupational acne. The people working in the field of machine, chemistry, and electrical industry are at high risk. The various occupational acne includes chloracne, coal tar, and oil acne. The most common type in clinic is the comedones, and it is also seen as papule, pustule, and cystic lesions. Histopathological examination shows epidermal hyperplasia, while follicular and sebaceous glands are replaced by keratinized epidermal cells. Topical or oral retinoic acids and oral antibiotics could be used in treatment. The improvement in working conditions, taking preventive measures, and education of the workers could eliminate occupational acne as a problem.
