How To Deal With Acne

By Bradd Alan


Many teenagers and young adults are struggling with acne infection. A lot of research has been done on how to deal with this skin condition. Acne is caused by accumulation of dead cells on the skin, which then mixes with oil to form undesirable pimples on the face that evolve to blackheads and whiteheads. There are several cures for the skin condition, both modern and traditional. It is however advisable to consult the advice of a dermatologist before embarking any treatment.

Salt therapy is one of the methods to deal with acne although many studies have not been put to test it. Many people who use and have used this skin care method claim that it not only cures acne, but also other skin conditions. The main purpose of salt therapy is to raise the level of calcium sulfate in the body.

There are also some old school home remedies that have not yet been proven by dermatologists that you can try anyway. You can apply some toothpaste or raw egg whites on the areas affected and wait until morning to see if it works. Garlic paste can also prevent acne inflammation. You may also be interested to try honey or lemons and leave it overnight.

Another great and proven treatment of acne is laser therapy. The greatest benefit about this treatment is that you only need to visit the doctor once and then you forget about acne forever. There are different types of laser therapy depending on the stage of acne you are in. Blue light therapy is for minor pimples, diode lasers are for slightly more advanced symptoms, while high intensity lasers are for stubborn long-term pimples.

Heat therapy is also used when dealing with undesirable pimples on the face. The main concept of this therapy is reduction of the size of the sebaceous glands so that they produce low levels of oil. The initial effect of this technology is that it causes a temporary redness on the face, but finally leaves a much smoother skin when the procedure is done.

A more recently used method is microdermabrasion. This skin care method involves elimination of the top layer of dead skin cells, and production of new ones to get rid of undesirable pimples on the face. This scientific process involves severe procedures and takes sometime before you can see the results, but the fruits will not disappoint you.

Antibiotics are also another effective way to deal with acne. There are several antibiotics in the market, some may cause severe skin reactions, and as such, it is important to seek the advice of a dermatologist before embarking on any skin care products. You can cure acne with oral antibiotics, which work well to destroy bacteria and disease causing microorganisms.

Another slightly effective method to eliminate acne is through Isotretinoin. Many people prefer the use of antibiotics rather than Isotretinoin because the latter is much more expensive. This method works a little bit differently than antibiotics by lowering the level of sebum oil produced by your skin glands.
