Acne Grade I
Is a disorder of the sebaceous glands and presents a variety of lesions; comedones, pustules, papules, cysts and nodules on the face, chest and back. These lesions are classified as Acne Grades l, ll, lll and lV to identify their type as mild moderate or sever for appropriate treatment. Acne occurs as a result of excessive sebum (oil) production mixing with keratinized (dead) cells in the philosebaceous unit (hair follicle). This creates a microplug or intra-cellular adhesion called a comedone. Comedones are classified as Acne Grade l or blackheads and pimples and are a worm like mass of keratinized cells and sebum appearing most frequently on the face but can appear on others parts of the body. Sometimes blackheads are accompanied by pimples and most often afflict males and females near puberty but may persist well beyond teen years. The small pore closed comedone is the precursor of inflammatory acne papules, pustules and cysts.The treatment for Acne Grade l blackheads with an occasional breakout of pimples is to stimulate follicular cell shedding with a simple Glycolic and or Salicylic Acid solution applied twice daily to control oil preventing the accumulation of dead cells that create the blockage at the mouth of the pore opening. Untreated this condition could lead to a serious acne condition potentially requiring a more aggressive intervention. That's why we recommend our Acne 1 kit to get you on the road to prevention!

What Our Clients Are Saying:
"Good Morning Lyn,
I spoke to you yesterday regarding where I can purchase your products and I started to tell you how much I love DERMed. I have had Acne since I was a teenager and I struggled all through my teenager years and now through my late 20's trying to clear it up. I never really found a good product that would not dry out my skin or break me out even more. I went to my family friend who is a dermatologist and she was trying to clear me up before my wedding well that did not happen so I went back to her after I got back and she stated that she has a new product that should clear me up and make my face smoother. That was about 3 weeks ago and I have never had a product that is as wonderful as DERMed. My face is so smooth and with just a few blemishes maybe like 5 and that is a record for my face. I work out at least 5 times a week and my sweat from spinning class is so intense that my face would have blemishes right after my class now that does not even happen to me anymore. I am so excited that I can be finally proud of my face. I am so pleased with the product I can not explain it to you with out you seeing my face. I just want to say thank you for coming up with this wonderful product.
Thank you,"
Stacy, Orlando, Florida

Acne Grade II and III
Is a chronic disorder of the sebaceous glands and presents a variety of very serious lesions; comedones, pustules, papules, cysts and nodules on the face, chest and back. These lesions are classified as Acne Grades l, ll, lll and lV to identify their type as mild moderate or sever for appropriate treatment. Acne Grades ll and lll occur as a result of excessive sebum (oil) production mixing with keratinized (dead) cells in the philosebaceous unit (hair follicle) creating
a persistent blockage or micro-plug that causes the colonization of Propionibacterium or P. acnes. Propionibacterium normally found in
the philosabaceous unit becomes problematic when it generates components that create inflammation such as Lipases, Proteases and Hyaluronidase. These enzymes hydrolyze sebum triglycerides to form free fatty acids, which are comedogenic irritants. Neutrophils (antimicrobial granulocytes found in white blood cells) develop hydrolases that weaken the follicular wall releasing part of the comedone into the dermis. An intense foreign body inflammatory reaction results in the formation of pustules and cysts. Increased amounts of keratin are usually a result of hormonal changes and why acne may occur beyond puberty from stress and in women approaching menopause. P. acnes bacteria is sensitive to topical and oral medications and if properly treated pustules and cysts will heal without scarring. The topical treatment for Acne Grades ll & lll blackheads with chronic breakout of pimples, pustules and cysts is to stimulatefollicular cell shedding and control oil production with a combination of Glycolic Acid and Salicylic Acid solutions. Benzoyl Peroxide or its herbal alternative Totarol is applied to suppress the bacterium that causes the inflammation. Much more aggressive treatment is needed for Acne Grades ll and lll to prevent permanent depressed scar tissue formation. That's why we recommend our Acne II & III kit to get you on the road to recovery!
