Papules

Papules are small, firm, red lesions that appear on the skin due to inflammation or blockage of hair follicles, often caused by an accumulation of sebum and dead cells. Inflamed and sometimes sensitive to touch, they are a sign of worsening acne and require appropriate care to prevent infection and scar formation.

FAQ about papules

Can papules leave scars?

Yes, papules can leave scars if they are mishandled or poorly treated, especially if the inflammation is severe.

What are the solutions for effectively eliminating papules?

Some cosmetic actives, such as succinic acid or salicylic acid, can help reduce the papules. However, in the case of numerous or persistent papules, it is important to seek advice from a dermatologist.

What is the average lifespan of a papule?

The average lifespan of a papule ranges from a few days to a few weeks, depending on its causes.

Are papules a sign of severe acne?

Papules are not necessarily an indication of severe acne, but their presence in large numbers or accompanied by nodules and pustules may suggest a form of moderate to severe acne. It should be noted that acne is not the only cause of papule formation.

Can papules appear on parts of the body other than the face?

Yes, papules can appear on other parts of the body, such as the back, the tongue, or even the vulva.
