<p><strong>3. Propionibacterium Acnes (P. Acnes)</strong></p> <p>Propionibacterium acnes – This bacteria thrives in an oil-rich, follicle plugged environment and the bacteria feed off the excess oil in the skin.</p> <p>Proliferation of the Proprionibacterium Acnes bacteria is responsible for most cases of acne (although we are seeing a few new strains coming through) and it is often resistant to antibiotics used to treat acne.</p> <p>For this reason, many physicians are avoiding antibiotics in the management of acne. In addition, oral antibiotics can kill off the good bacteria that reside in the gut causing long term digestive & immune problems.</p> <p>Instead of antibiotics, benzoyl peroxide can be used for bacterial reduction and lasers and light therapy can be helpful too.</p> <p>Many physicians are also putting their acne patients onto probiotics to help replace any destroyed beneficial bacterial secondary to antibiotic therapy. </p>
