There are a 100 trillion bacteria living on and in our bodies, 10 times more than human cells. These bacteria make up the human microbiome. A balanced microbiome containing good bacteria can prevent the growth of bad bacteria and train our immune system to function properly. An imbalance in the skin and gut microbiome may lead to unwanted skin diseases like acne.
Acne has four known disease factors. Acne occurs through a combination of events including the overproduction of oil on the skin, clogging of pores by dead skin cells and overgrowth of the acne-causing bacteria P. acnes resulting in inflammation. Currently available prescription and over-the-counter acne treatments typically address only one out of four acne disease factors which makes them not very effective. They are also based on very harsh chemicals that have side effects and destroy the good bacteria on the skin and in the gut that are important for general health including skin health.
At Dermala, we take a completely new approach – we balance the skin and gut microbiome to get rid of acne. Why? Because healthy clear skin can be restored by encouraging the growth of good bacteria that can eliminate and prevent acne. Dermala's topical acne products contain nutrients that specifically feed the good bacteria on the skin along with molecules derived from the skin microbiome that kill P. acnes, unclog pores, and reduce inflammation. Dermala’s advanced acne probiotics have been formulated to deliver good bacteria to the gut to balance the gut microbiome, reduce the oil production in the skin and reduce systemic inflammation associated with acne.
