Treat Your Acne And Enjoy Lasting Effects
October 29, 2009
The effects of acne differ from one skin type to another. However, the reasons for acne’s occurrence are the same. This is basically due to the fact that some dead skin cells block the hair follicles from coming out of the skin and this will lead to the development of acne.
The blocked follicles result in whiteheads, blackheads and eventually, when bacteria appear in the blocked pores, it turns to annoying red swelling spots called acne.
These bacteria contribute to the irritation in the skin. However, as the pores are blocked by dead skin cells and excessive oil, the inflammation of the blocked pores increases and makes your acne situation worse.
Moreover, when the dead skin cells are not removed from the pores, the pore is blocked and triggers the development of acne.
Teenagers are more susceptible to developing acne because of hormonal changes. This is common ever since they enter the period of puberty. During this time, a teenager’s body starts to produce more oil caused by the production of androgen.
Similarly, pregnant women are also prone to acne because of the increase in their estrogen levels. Aside from excessive oil and dirt in the pores, acne is also caused by dead skin cells that remain on the skin. This is called oxidized keratin.
To handle acne problems, you can try using the following medical treatment products:
1. To reduce the build-up of excess skin cells, you can use products with glycolic and mandelic acids;
2. To reduce oil levels and dead cells, you can use products with salicylic acid that deeply penetrates the pores in the skin deeply.
3. Acne scrubs are also effective products to remove dead cells, but only use it once or twice a week to avoid skin irritation;
4. To treat inflamed acne, use benzoyl peroxide since it destroys the bacteria that destroy your skin tissue. However, just like acne scrubs, you should apply this carefully to avoid irritation.
When you treat your acne using the above suggestions, you should expect a gradual improvement of your skin. The effect is not immediate, but in the long run, this approach will prevent more acne from developing on your skin.
