Mallorca acne, also known as acne aestivalis, is a specific form of acne that can occur especially during summer vacations in warm, humid regions such as Mallorca. The reaction of the skin is favored by sun exposure and the use of greasy sunscreens and manifests itself in small, red pimples and pustules, often accompanied by itching and inflammation. In this article, we will take an in-depth look at Mallorca acne, understand its causes and identify ways in which it can be treated and avoided.

The exact causes of Mallorca acne have not yet been fully researched, but it is thought to be caused by a combination of factors. The use of greasy sun creams can clog the pores and encourage the growth of bacteria. UV radiation from the sun can also irritate the skin and cause inflammation. People with oily skin may be more susceptible as their sebaceous glands already have an increased production of oil.
The treatment of Mallorca acne is generally uncomplicated and requires consistent skin care. It is important to use mild cleansers and avoid greasy sun creams. Instead, you should use non-comedogenic or oil-free sun protection products to avoid clogging your pores. After sunbathing, it is advisable to apply a soothing moisturizer to calm the skin.
Regular exfoliation can help remove dead skin cells and keep pores clear. However, avoid overly aggressive exfoliation as this can irritate the skin. Topical creams or gels with anti-inflammatory agents can also be used to relieve inflammation.
The best way to prevent acne in Mallorca is to prepare your skin thoroughly before going on vacation. A light pre-tan can make the skin more resistant to the effects of the sun. Using products with salicylic acid can also be helpful to keep the pores clear and reduce the growth of bacteria.
While in the sun, protect your skin from excessive UV radiation by wearing a hat and staying in the shade, especially during peak sunlight hours. Wear loose clothing that covers your skin to minimize direct contact with the sun.
A promising new research direction in the treatment of acne is the use of bacteriophages. Bacteriophages are viruses that can attack specific bacteria and eliminate them. Research shows that some bacteriophages can restore the balance of the skin microbiome by reducing harmful bacteria and promoting beneficial bacteria. This can help reduce acne breakouts and improve skin health.
Mallorca acne is a special form of acne that is promoted by sun exposure and greasy sun creams. Treatment requires careful skin care, while prevention involves thorough preparation of the skin before the vacation. Future developments in research could enable the use of bacteriophages as a promising treatment method for acne. Talk to a dermatologist to get a personalized consultation and treatment plan to effectively manage Mallorca acne.
