</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Every person knows the value of our face. The better it is, the more advantageous it gets. Before anything else, it is the first thing others look at whenever they see you. In general, our confidence relies on our contentment to our <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/human_physical_appearance" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_physical_appearance" rel="wikipedia" title="Human physical appearance">physical appearance</a>. When one thinks he or she looks good, the confidence really exudes.<br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">For growing up, the growth of pimples is really a major concern. For those who do not have problems involving the face, congratulations! For those who are crying over it, there is a bright light at the end of the tunnel! <br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Is <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/acne_vulgaris" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acne_vulgaris" rel="wikipedia" title="Acne vulgaris">acne</a> your problem? Are you spending too much money for chemical remedy? Do you want to apply a remedy but you are afraid it may be harsh? Try the natural way of treating your acne. You do not have to go that far… The treatment is right in your home. The doctor is right within you.<br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The most effective beauty tip of all times is: drink at least 8 glasses of <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/water" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water" rel="wikipedia" title="Water">water</a> a day. Hydrating your body will help you get rid toxins. Love your body and love your skin.<br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Healthy and clean acts may also help. Make sure that you do not leave makeup products on your skin because it contributes to clogging your pores, causing more pimples and blackheads. Do not sleep with make-up on. Also, keep your hair away from your face. Hair contains oil that may create breakouts to your skin.<br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Wash your pillow case and towels. They are absorbent and they absorb even acne-contributors too. Lastly, never prick your pimples. You do not want your face to be as dirty as your fingernails, right?<br />

It would indeed help if you lessen your oily or fatty food intake. Eating food rich in fiber is a remedy. Moreover, in order for you to maintain a healthy skin, eating food that is considered <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/antioxidant" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antioxidant" rel="wikipedia" title="Antioxidant">anti-oxidants</a> would matter a lot.

You do not have to consider it as a problem. There are more things to prioritize and not letting that acne bother you that much for it would not help at all. Well, another point we have to consider is how to treat acne. With the treatment, money matters. This means that of course, you have to have some amount of money for the treatment. </span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a name='more'></a><br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">Well, when what you have is not enough, you could have the most reliable home treatments. These would be saving you from having worse acne without having to spend so much. What are these means? Are they safe? Yes, they are safe steps in treating your acne problems and they would not let you experience all those acne terrors or bad outcomes of trying to get the remedy for acne.</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">These are worth your trial for they are really effective and you could just be at home. But, take note that these guidelines are only for mild acne problems and if you have a more complicated situation, you have to seek the help of a professional.</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">First, if washing does not seem to be very helpful for you, then it is high time for you to use <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/benzoyl_peroxide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoyl_peroxide" rel="wikipedia" title="Benzoyl peroxide">benzoyl peroxide</a>. This could be found from <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/cleanser" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleanser" rel="wikipedia" title="Cleanser">face wash</a>, bar soap, <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/topical" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topical" rel="wikipedia" title="Topical">topical</a> cream or gel. The reminder you have to take note of is that you must not over use this solution for it may leave your <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/skin" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin" rel="wikipedia" title="Skin">skin</a> super red or super dry.</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">One thing that you would notice as you try <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/home_remedy" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_remedy" rel="wikipedia" title="Home remedy">home remedies</a>, the results may be slow. But, you need to be patient about it. The results you are expecting to have may be achieved like after a couple of weeks after you use them on your skin. Be really careful with this for you would surely be hurting skin if in case and it may even lead to a worse effect.</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><iframe align="left" frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=story2go-20&o=1&p=8&l=bpl&asins=B000LBRZZ6&fc1=000000&IS2=1&lt1=_blank&m=amazon&lc1=0000FF&bc1=000000&bg1=FFFFFF&f=ifr" style="height: 245px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 131px;"></iframe>Have you heard about <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/salicylic_acid" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salicylic_acid" rel="wikipedia" title="Salicylic acid">salicylic acid</a>? It is another thing that you could use. And this could be found in facial washes or facial pads. This could be very helpful to helping your pores be unclogged and prevent the growth of <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/pimple" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pimple" rel="wikipedia" title="Pimple">pimples</a> or even the case of acne. Again, you have to be very careful in using it too so that you would not have even those very bad outcomes.</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><span style="font-size: large;">These two: benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid are very useful treatment aids you could use. But, be very keen about them. Use them well. </span><br />

</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">When those reddish things on your face start to show up, you may think that it may have been caused by this or that. You may even blame it to the most unreasonable reason. Well the best thing for you to do is to stop these misunderstandings. When you stick with them, it would not help you find the right treatment for your <a class="zem_slink" href="http://getacnetreatments.com/" rel="homepage" title="acne treatment">acne</a>. <br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><b>These are the common things we think of when it comes to the cause of acne:</b><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The most misconception is that it is fine to have acne especially when you are a teenager. <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/common" href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0996669/" rel="imdb" title="Common (entertainer)">Common</a> people would connect it to <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/puberty" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puberty" rel="wikipedia" title="Puberty">puberty</a> or to <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/adolescence" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolescence" rel="wikipedia" title="Adolescence">adolescence</a>. This is not a fact. Well, there may be some reasons such as the changes in <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/hormone" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hormone" rel="wikipedia" title="Hormone">hormones</a> as one is in that stage. But there is falsity when people say that acne is for teenagers only. As we could see or read on some researches, there are also adults who experience the same acne problems as adults do. Age does not matter when it comes to having acne as long as you keep your face clean, you would not be prone to have it.<br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Another thing that has been believed to be the cause of acne is daily <a class="zem_slink freebase/guid/9202a8c04000641f8000000000114bbb" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_%28biology%29" rel="wikipedia" title="Stress (biology)">stress</a>. Most people, young and old, believe in this wrong thought. There is no direct connection between stress and having acne for it the stress caused by your daily life and all other stressful activities you may think of. There has nothing to do with whatever root of stress in your work or studies. There has something to do with the way you treat your <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/skin" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin" rel="wikipedia" title="Skin">skin</a>. When you do not keep your regimen to keep your skin healthy, you would probably have that acne that you are scared to have.<br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">When most people think that acne is just a physical problem, it is but you should also know that it is also an emotional burden. There are a lot of emotional impacts that could be caused by having acne. On of the top most effect is having <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/self_esteem" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-esteem" rel="wikipedia" title="Self-esteem">low self-esteem</a>. As you live in a superficial world like ours, you would really feel insecure whenever you feel like having those eyes staring at your face. People with acne are so timid for they may just be tagged as “ugly” by others. There is a need for you to take care of your skin and face. <br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">The most common misconception about acne is that it could be acquired from eating oily <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/food_industry" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food" rel="wikipedia" title="Food">food</a>. Desserts, chocolates and all those oily food must not be blamed for eating such food but for not taking good care of your skin. Well, you must se to it that you maintain that right way of keeping your face clean and healthy.<br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">You have to know the real causes of acne; just do not resort to the wrong conceptions. They could just harm you instead of helping you out in getting rid of acne. And, you know what could be the effects of those <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/red" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red" rel="wikipedia" title="Red">red</a> tiny humps on your face. <br />

<b>Whilst the biggest group of <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acne_vulgaris" rel="wikipedia" title="Acne vulgaris">acne</a> sufferers are <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolescence" rel="wikipedia" title="Adolescence">teenagers</a>, a lot of adults additionally are subject to numerous outbreaks too. The embarrassment and loss of confidence for numerous people dealing with acne past their adolescent years can harmfully effect some aspects of their day to day living. The effects of the situation in the elements of social relationships and working interaction might possibly be a lot more harmful than the physical aspect of it.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="zemanta-img zemanta-action-dragged" style="display: block; float: right; margin: 1em; width: 310px;"><a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Akne-jugend.jpg"><img alt="Acne vulgaris" height="205" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4b/Akne-jugend.jpg/300px-Akne-jugend.jpg" style="border: medium none; display: block;" width="300" /></a><span class="zemanta-img-attribution">Image via <a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Akne-jugend.jpg">Wikipedia</a></span><br />
</div>If you are even now subject to acne outbreaks during your adult years your central concern has to be what is the cause of your acne, not how to care for a current outbreak. Sadly adult acne treatment suggestions still incline towards the handling of acne as a <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin" rel="wikipedia" title="Skin">skin</a> problem instead of an indication that there is something else amiss internally as regards the body.<br />
<br />
There are a multitude of programs available at present promising help with adult acne treatment by dealing with the acne outbreak itself. Such acne treatments appear as a variety of creams or additional skin applications and while they can lend a hand in the relief of an existing outbreak or even decrease the healing time of one they do not deal with the real source.<br />
<br />
Peculiarly, some of those who sell these creams and therapies openly agree that acne is created by an imbalance of the hormones. Despite that their adult acne treatment products do not focus on this in any way. The exception being physicians who tend to agree with the hormonal acne notion however only address it by giving females contraceptive pills. As for men they provide nothing. This once more displays the bias towards dealing with an outcome instead of isolating and treating the source.<br />
<br />
The origin of acne can by and large be placed into three divisions nevertheless the true issue is trying to figure out which one is the basis of your acne. The three points are what you eat, lifestyle and hormones however none of them run completely independent of the others. This is the real reason it can be hard to avoid acne from happening from the outset.<br />
<br />
Luckily there are a number of adult acne treatment choices available depending upon the acuteness of your situation. In deciding on what is the best acne treatment program for you keep in mind the basic idea that the best acne treatment programs will address the source of your acne, not the symptoms.<br />

Acne, which affects the majority of teenagers, and a very large number of adults as well, can be treated using various different methods, with prices ranging from relatively inexpensive to incredibly expensive. However, the best acne treatments are those that treat acne from inside the body, as well as on the surface of the skin – since acne starts inside.<br />
<br />
The name on the package really doesn’t matter as much as what is inside the package. Some ingredients have proven to be quite effective for treating acne, while others don’t seem to have any affect. Some ingredients are perfectly safe, while other’s have risks associated with them. What you use to treat your acne is up to you – but it is important that you make informed decisions, in order to find the best acne treatments for you.<br />
<br />
Benzoyl peroxide is one of the most effective ingredients found in a large majority of acne medications, however, there is quite a bit of controversy surrounding this chemical. Benzoyl peroxide has been linked to skin cancer, and it is on the FDA’s ‘unsure’ list. This means that while it has been approved by the FDA for human use, the FDA cannot say that it is safe to use – but the FDA hasn’t determined that it is unsafe either.<br />
<br />
Some of the most effective treatments for a large majority of people who suffer with acne are: ProActiv, Accutane, and Retin-A. This doesn’t mean that these medications work for everyone – it just means that it is effective for the majority of people who use these treatments. <br />
<br />
ProActiv is a three step topical acne fighting system that does not require a prescription, although it does contain prescription grade Benzoyl peroxide. Accutane is an oral prescription medication. There are many side affects associated with the use of Accutane, such as chapped lips, dry skin, nosebleeds, eye irritation, joint and muscle pain, hair thinning, skin rash, intestinal problems, urinary problems, headaches, and vision problems. There are even some psychological side effects, such as depression. Accutane is not prescribed to women who are pregnant or nursing, due to serious birth defects. Retin-A has very few side effects, and is available in both prescription and over the counter forms. Retin-A is used to treat a variety of skin problems other than acne as well, including wrinkles, lines, scars, and discoloration.<br />
<br />
If using one of these products is of interest to you, you should start with ProActiv. If ProActiv doesn’t work, try Retin-A next. Avoid using Accutane if you can, and if you do decide that you want to give Accutane a try, make sure that you weigh the potential side effects carefully. <br />
<br />
While these treatments are costly, they have proven to be the most successful. Therefore, in most cases, they are well worth the expense. People spend billions of dollars purchasing inexpensive acne treatments that simply do not work. If you look at it in terms of how much money you would spend buying products that do not work, in relation to the amount you will spend to purchase an acne treatment that works for a large majority of the population, you will find that you are better off spending the money on the products that work in the long run, bypassing those that do not work.<br />
<br />
Keep in mind, however, that even though these are the best acne treatments available, this doesn’t mean that other, less expensive treatments won’t work for you. What works for you will depend on many factors, including how severe your acne is. Discuss your options with your dermatologist.<br />
<br />
No matter which acne treatment you use, you must keep your face clean, keep your hair and hands off your face, use the treatment as directed, and give the treatment time to work. Failure to do any of these things will keep your acne treatment from working – no matter how good it is. You should also remember that what works for some people may not work for others. The best acne treatments are not always the best for everyone. What worked for your neighbor may cause your acne to become worse. Work to find the best acne treatment for you – and make sure you give it times to work!<br />

<br />
There are several criteria for acne treatments for teenagers. Number one - they must have a high rate of success. Two, they should be simple to use. And number three, they must be safe for your skin, preferably good for sensitive skin.<br />
<br />
Preferably, they should also be fast acting. And low cost. Teens and parents should not have to spend hundreds on dermatologists and facial peels.<br />
<br />
There are two systems that I think qualify for serious consideration for those seeking acne treatments for teenagers.<br />
<br />
The first was created by a Board Cerified Plastic and Reconstructive surgeon, Dr Beckman. He has a background in chemistry as well as 24 years of experience in plastic surgery, where he developed expertise in the principles of skin restoration. He has developed a two step system, which is by its nature simple to follow.<br />
<br />
The first step is an antimicrobial wash that gets rid of 99.9% of all bacteria on the skin's surface for up to 12 hours. This reduces the chance for infection to occur, and many people using his system have found that even if they were on oral antibiotics or accutane that this alone was able to help prevent future acne outbreaks. This cleanser is also excellent for removing dirt and oily deposits on the skin.<br />
<br />
The next step is a topical medication designed to encourage the skin's natural process of exfoliation. This treatment contains salicylic acid and lactic acid, which remove dead skin cells and oily plugs from the sebaceous glands to prevent acne by unclogging pores. Lactic acid encourages the growth of new collagen and elastin, whilst restoring the skin's natural PH balance.<br />
<br />
This acne treatments for teenagers system has been used by people with all types of acne - from mild to severe cystic acne. It is 100% effecive on people with Grades 1 & 2 acne, 80-90% successful with Grades 3 acne, and very effective in controlling new breakouts with Grade 4 acne sufferers. Users on prescription medications like accutane were able to cut back on their dosage or stop using it altogether.<br />
<br />
In a study of high school and college students over 12 weeks, all participants had some degree of improvement, and most improvements were within a two week period. So the Reversion system is fast acting. Grades 1 & 2 acne sufferers achieved total control of their acne, and Grades 3 & 4 achieved dramatic improvements.<br />
<br />

<br />
The next system of acne treatments for teenagers that I recommend is by Zen Med. Theirs is a 3 step system, with a little bit of a different approach to Reversion. They have two topical applications like Reversion, a cleanser and an acne treatment medication. But they also have herbal acne supplements included in the package.<br />
<br />
This is an important part of the treatment, and one of the reasons they have such a high success rate with many people's acne clearing up for good. The Zen Med system was developed using the 3000 year plus expertise of Traditional Chinese Medicine, combined with modern therapeutics. Theirs is an all natural, all herbal preparation that works on mild to severe acne. It does not contain drugs and there are no side effects.<br />
<br />
Many people who tried traditional prescription medication but did not achieve satisfactory results on these were very happy with what the Zen Med system did for their skin. One of the big pluses in this acne treatments for teenagers is that most people using it stopped their acne at the source within 1 to 3 months - this is not a treatment that you will have to be using for the rest of your life.<br />

Research has given more information on the treatment of acne and the scars it can leave behind. These scars referred to can be emotional as well as physical. When the latest findings are combined with the right <i><b>acne medication</b></i>, the effectiveness of clearing acne is a simple task to undertake. The older ways to clear acne can still work with today's acne medication. The wonders of science can now help to heal the scars. As with anything in life, the best way to rid the body of scars is to not have them to begin with. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Keep The Skin Clean </b><br />
Research has made it clear that acne is not caused by dirt. It is bacteria which are spread from one pore to the other that does cause the problems. Clean face and hands will help prevent the spread of the bacteria to clear areas reducing the scars. Cleaning the skin two times each day with an acne medication product designed for individual skin types will remove the skin cells and keep the normal dirt and oil away. Hands are best kept way from the face especially in the areas where acne is already an issue. The hands can be used to clean the face but must first be cleaned properly themselves. DO not even squeeze acne as this causes damage to the skin as well as spreading of bacteria. The infection thus can create scarring. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Use The Acne Medication Properly </b><br />
Never assume you know how to use any product until you have taken the time to read the instructions and understand them completely. Some directions for different products may be similar but could have slight variations that make the difference in clearing away acne. Improper use of any medication for any problem can cause dangerous, even deadly, consequences. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Ban Oily Skin Products </b><br />
Oil based acne medication products for acne only serve to add to the problem because they clog the pores making things worse. Make sure to take time to read the labels on any product considered to assure it is water based. This is especially true for hair care products, cosmetics, and other products used on the skin. The water based items will be lighter on the skin and give you the same effective coverage the oil based products can. <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>From The Inside Out </b><br />
Nothing today is truer than the fact that what you put into the body comes out through the skin. Myth told that chocolate and greasy foods were the cause of acne. This is not true today because of new research. However, it is true that cleaner food inside the body will prevent and help to clear acne on the outside. A healthy diet will give a better overall health picture to include the skin, digestion, and blood throughout the body. Proper water consumption along with a healthy diet will help reduce the acne already showing and will help to stop the breakouts in the future. No breakouts mean no more scars. <br />

Choosing the right acne solution for you can be a little time consuming. Finding one that will work for you can have many possibilities because there are many types of skin. The same type of acne solution will not work the same for everyone. Many things affect skin and cause acne, just be patient and you can find a remedy that will work for you.<br />
<br />
It can seem like a never ending process when your searching for the right acne solution. You could find yourself disappointed because the product you try makes promises and guarantees but does not live up to that promise. When you are looking for a product to help you with your acne you should consider the type of skin you have and also the type of acne you have. When you want to compare products and determine your skin type there are many useful websites that can help you figure it out. They can offer you suggestions based on the answers to questions about your skin.<br />
<br />
Cost is another thing to consider when trying to find acne solution that is right for you. With our economy today, many people are closely watching where their money is going and especially if the cost is very high. You might not want to spend a lot of money on a product that you are not sure is going to work and some acne solutions are very expensive. You can get a better idea of what kind of acne solution is more likely to work for you when you research a regimen that will be beneficial to your skin type.<br />
<br />
It might sound crazy but not everyone has the same type of acne. There are different kinds of acne, light, moderate and severe. Different types of acne takes a different type of treatment. Some forms of acne are best treated with the help of a physician who will prescribe a prescription strength medication to treat it. This is usually only necessary in cases of severe acne. To find the acne solution that is right for you may take a little time and patience but once you do you'll be on your way to clear skin.<br />
<br />
There are things you can do to help get rid of your acne that don't have anything to do with medication. Lifestyle, diet and exercise can all have an effect on acne and those are all things that you are able to control yourself. Good hygiene is essential when taking care of your skin just like eating too much sugar and acidic foods can have a negative effect, water and high fiber foods can have a positive effect. You can get the clear skin that you want when you combine good habits with an acen solution that is right for you.<br />

<b> </b><br />
Since acne is most visible as blackheads, whiteheads, redness and swelling around the lesions or skin pores where the bacteria known as <i>P. acnes</i> is congregated, appropriate <i><b>acne care</b></i> must be targeted to eliminating the physical signs. Perhaps just as importantly, the best way to treat the lesions associated with acne is to prevent them from occurring. A combination of treatment methods is often the most successful practice, but your dermatologist should be consulted to determine your best treatment regimen. It is important to take action and to follow the instructions of the medical professional rather than hoping that you will outgrow the problem.<br />
<br />
<b> </b><br />
<b>Importance of Action</b><br />
<b> </b><br />
Regardless of the type of acne that you have diagnosed, taking action to begin the process of healing is important. Prompt and aggressive acne care is more likely to provide positive results. The big guns don't have to be brought to bear against a mild outbreak of acne, but you should take note of it and use appropriate measures to limit its severity and spread. In this way, you are less likely to find the need of more extensive treatment in the future. Acne doesn't have to be a nightmare of embarrassment and discomfort.<br />
<br />
<b>Daily Cleansing Routine</b><br />
<b> </b><br />
No matter what type of acne you have developed, a daily cleansing routine should be part of your acne care practices. A mild product that will gently remove oil, dirt and dead skin cells from the surface of the skin will help to improve skin health. The cleansing agent should not contain abrasives. A product that contains salicylic acid is a good direction to go for positive results. Salicylic acid helps to reduce excess secretions from the sebaceous glands so that blockage of the follicle is eliminated. This occurs without excess drying of the skin.<br />
<br />
<b>Medications</b><br />

Acne care that works is improved by various types of medications. There are oral medications and topical medications that are given quite commonly to reduce the population of acne related bacteria. Usually, topical medications are prescribed for many types of acne that are mild to moderate in severity or that are sporadic in appearance. On the other hand, oral antibiotics may be necessary when the acne symptoms are severe or long lasting so that they are resistant to less aggressive treatments. The purpose of most medical and light treatments is to deal with the bacteria level to make the acne outbreaks less likely.<br />

Finally, if there are still residual effects such as scars or thickened skin as a result of acne, you can expand the acne care to remove scars with the use of surgical techniques. These methods can include dermabrasion or cosmetic surgery. The<b> </b>procedures are usually done on an outpatient basis by qualified dermatologists or cosmetic surgeons. The cost and the complexity of the procedure will depend upon the severity of the acne condition and type of procedure selected.

<b><u>TIPS ON ACNE-CARE TO FIGHT THE LESION</u></b><br />
<br />
Since acne is most visible as blackheads, whiteheads, redness and swelling around the lesions or skin pores where the bacteria known as <i>P. acnes</i> is congregated, appropriate <b><i>acne care</i></b> must be targeted to eliminating the physical signs. Perhaps just as importantly, the best way to treat the lesions associated with acne is to prevent them from occurring. A combination of treatment methods is often the most successful practice, but your dermatologist should be consulted to determine your best treatment regimen. It is important to take action and to follow the instructions of the medical professional rather than hoping that you will outgrow the problem.<br />
<br />
<b>Importance of Action </b><br />
Regardless of the type of acne that you have diagnosed, taking action to begin the process of healing is important. Prompt and aggressive <a href="http://www.clearpores.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=174612&t=php" target="_new">acne care</a> is more likely to provide positive results. The big guns don't have to be brought to bear against a mild outbreak of acne, but you should take note of it and use appropriate measures to limit its severity and spread. In this way, you are less likely to find the need of more extensive treatment in the future. Acne doesn't have to be a nightmare of embarrassment and discomfort.<br />
<br />
<b>Daily Cleansing Routine </b><br />
No matter what type of acne you have developed, a daily cleansing routine should be part of your acne care practices. A mild product that will gently remove oil, dirt and dead skin cells from the surface of the skin will help to improve skin health. The cleansing agent should not contain abrasives. A product that contains salicylic acid is a good direction to go for positive results. Salicylic acid helps to reduce excess secretions from the sebaceous glands so that blockage of the follicle is eliminated. This occurs without excess drying of the skin. I would recommend <a href="http://www.clearpores.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=174612&t=php">Clear pores</a>.<br />

<b><u>5 Steps to Great Acne Care</u></b><br />
<br />
If you are afflicted by acne, remember, you are not alone. Almost every American, rather every one else anywhere around the globe would have gone through this at some point of time or the other during the course of their life. <b><i><a href="http://www.clearpores.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=174612&t=php">Acne care</a></i></b> therefore has turned into an industry, particularly in America.<br />
The cosmetic factors of acne are more irksome than acne itself, more so in the case of women. No wonder then that there are so many acne care products available across the counter. Yet, not all forms of acne may respond well to these OTC drugs. Knowing the causes of acne and putting preventive measures in place can help you. Here are some of the facts to aid you.<br />
<br />
<b>Type of skin</b><br />
Ahead of identifying the proper treatment method, it is essential to understand the type of skin you. It can be oily, dry or at times a combination of both. Acne care should be tailored to suit the type of skin.<br />
<br />
<b>Face wash</b><br />
The primary acne care step, even before looking at any treatment method is to regularly wash your face. The excess production of sebaceous glands is responsible for the onset of acne. The fluid secretion from the glands into the skin pores. In cases where the face remains dirty for long periods of time, the fluid is trapped in the pores leading to infection. But, when you are doing this as part of your acne care exercise, you need to follow these guidelines.<br />
<br />
You can apply lotion to your skin to heal it. But, remember that what most OTC products would do is to dry up your skin and not heal it. Dry skin can promote acne and you may aggravate an existing problem.<br />
Was your face on a need basis. If you have been engaged in any form of physical activity leading to plenty of sweat and dirt accumulation, wash your face as soon as you finish the task. Allowing the sweat and dirt particles residence until you get home may not be of help in acne care.<br />
<br />
Cleansing products with high alcohol content may do more harm than good for your skin. Salicylic acid, Aloe Vera, Niacinamide, Benzoyl Peroxide are among the better cleaning agents. I would recommend using <a href="http://www.clearpores.com/clicks/clickthrough.html?a=174612&t=php">Clear Pores</a> which is a better choice.<br />
<br />
Do not overdo the washing and be gentle with the process. Rubbing or scrubbing your face can add to your woes.<br />
<br />
<b>Ex-foliators</b><br />
There are several types of ex-foliators. You can choose one that suits you best to remove the bacteria and dead skin from the surface of the skin.<br />
<br />
<b>Scratching and picking</b><br />
Acne does cause irritation, but picking and scratching your skin is certainly not a remedy. In fact, you may contribute to a more intense affliction. You could also be potentially inviting scars which might stay put even long after your acne is gone.<br />
<br />
<b>Sun and Acne</b><br />
If you have acne, keep off the sun as much as you can. <a href="http://www.articlesbase.com/acne-articles/5-safe-steps-to-great-acne-care-705232.html" target="_new">Acne medications </a><br />
will only make the skin more sensitive to damage from the sun. Sun blocks tend to assist clogging of arteries because most of them are oil based.<br />

<br />
When you are faced with an acne problem, you have to find out whether the program you need is an acne care natural skin program or an acne care combination skin program. How your skin is diagnosed and the treatment that you will need for it may depend on the skin type you have. Your skin type can be determined by a dermatologist, who can let you know whether or not you should use an acne care natural skin treatment or another kind of treatment for your skin.<br />
<br />
The use of acne care products that are made for your particular skin type, like acne care natural skin products, can be rather effective in helping you maintain healthy skin. With such products, you will not be using anti oil treatments that are not oily, nor are you using dry skin treatments on oily skin. The kind of skin treatment you use, whether it is for acne or any other skin problem, should always be compatible with the kind of skin you have to give you the best possible results for your skin dilemma.<br />
<br />
When you are trying to determine the kind of skin you have to help you choose the kind of products you can use, like those acne care natural skin type products, you will need to consider the purposes of the products you are planning to use. This may sound a bit confusing, but if you look at all the different skin care products that are on sale everywhere, you will see that all of these have specific purposes or reasons for their use. There are products that are aimed at treating really bad acne, there are products that are formulated to treat occasional breakouts and there are also products that treat hard to eliminate acne and other such skin problems. When you get your skin analyzed, you should also get your dermatologist to tell you what kind of acne you are suffering from or what other skin problems you might have aside from acne.<br />
<br />
Your dermatologist can tell you other things you may need to know about your skin, aside from your skin type. He or she may give you advice on the kind of treatment program for acne care natural skin that is most suitable for you, depending on the severity of your acne problems, or what acne treatment products you should very well avoid. There are many treatments and solutions that can help you get rid of bothersome acne as well as help with your all around skin condition, and deciding for yourself without prior consultations with those who are in the know may cause you to suffer from more than just an occasional acne problem.<br />

<br />
Acne generally affects people between the ages of 10 to 40 and over. It manifests as clogged pores, whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, pustules or cysts. They occur in the oil glands of the face and sometimes the chest and back.<br />
<br />
Acne care medications deal with the proactive treatment of acne and helps control the spread and eliminate scarring. There is much that you can to for acne either on your own or with the help of a physician. If you have a mild form of acne, there are many over-the-counter medications that you can find in your local pharmacy. The Internet is also a good place to do research, as there are many companies that offer acne care medications. Just make sure that the company is reputable and has proven results with the products they sell.<br />
<br />
If you consult a physician, preferably a dermatologist, there are several drugs that they can prescribe that will be beneficial to your condition. They include topically applied antibiotics and antibacterials like erythromycin, clindamycin, sulfacetamide and azelaic acid. Another popular prescribed medication is an oral antibiotic like tetracycline, doxycycline and minocycline. Cefadroxil, amoxicillin and sulfa drugs are also used. For extreme cases of acne, many doctors prescribe<br />
<br />
* Retinoids: Retin-A has been around for years, and has become milder and gentler while still maintaining its effectiveness. Newer retinoids include Differin and Avita. These are especially helpful for unclogging pores.<br />
<br />
* Oral antibiotics: Most doctors start oral treatment with tetracycline or one of the related "cyclines," such as doxycycline and minocycline. Other antibiotics that are useful for treating acne are cefadroxil, amoxicillin, and sulfa drugs.<br />
<br />
* Oral contraceptives: Modern contraceptives, which are low in estrogen to promote safety, have little effect on acne one way or the other. One pill, Ortho Tri-Cyclen, has been shown to help acne, but its effectiveness is only modest.<br />
<br />
* Isotretinoin (Accutane): Isotretinoin is a wonderful treatment for severe, resistant acne. Used properly, it is safe and produces few side effects beyond annoying, dry lips. The most important issue with isotretinoin is contraception. Women of childbearing age must be sure they cannot become pregnant while taking this drug or for one month after stopping it, because of risk of birth defects.<br />
<br />
* Cortisone Injections: To make large pimples and cysts flatten out fast, doctors inject them with a form of cortisone.<br />
<br />
Patience, Patients! Rome wasn't built in a day, and acne won't clear in a week. Any of the treatments listed above may take 2 or 3 months to start working (even isotretinoin.) Unless there are side-effects such as dryness or allergy, it is important to give each regimen or drug enough time to work before giving up on it and moving on to other treatments. Otherwise, treatment becomes a merry-go-round going nowhere. With patience and perseverance, however, you'll get there. Just hang in there. And don't pick!<br />

<br />
There are many acne treatment skin care products on the market and it does not surprise me when you consider how many people suffer from acne in some form or another. It is an almost inevitable part of growing up in western cultures. 85% of American teenagers suffer from it, and for many people it continues well into their adult life, although it usually becomes less severe after the teenage years.<br />
<br />
People living with acne often suffer from low self esteem because of self consciousness about the acne which can be quite unsightly and sometimes painful. There are various possible treatments including hormonal and antibiotic treatments which may be taken internally. The first thing that you should do if your acne is severe is to visit your doctor who will assess what might help you the best. Below are some of the treatments that may be advised.<br />
<br />
<b>1. Diet</b><br />
<br />
Acne is not very common in non-westernized countries but it does appear when a culture starts to adopt a western diet, so it appears that diet is a very significant factor with acne. Dairy products, high levels of saturated fats and blood glucose imbalances caused by sugar are all thought to contribute to the problem, so avoid those foods whenever you can.<br />
<br />
<b>2. Exfoliation</b><br />
<br />
Although acne is not caused by dirt but by blockages in the hair follicles, it is a good idea to wash and exfoliate your skin on a regular basis to clear away the dead tissue that can add to blockages and make the appearance of acne worse. Quite often this process will also improve the appearance of blackheads. Washing with soap and something that is a gentle abrasive like a face cloth can be enough to exfoliate the skin, or you can buy skin cleansers that either contain small beads that abrade the skin or pads soaked in salicylic or glycolic acid. Do not exfoliate too frequently, especially if you are using acid on your skin. You might damage the skin causing redness that can look even worse than the acne itself.<br />
<br />
<b>3. Bactericidal creams, gels and washes</b><br />
<br />
Bactericidal products are applied to the areas where the outbreaks occur. Quite often these are over the counter products that contain benzoyl peroxide in various strengths. As well as killing the bacteria in acne that has already appeared, benzoyl peroxide kills the keratin that blocks the pores, so it will help to prevent future outbreaks. Applied twice a day over several weeks, this has been found to reduce the appearance of acne by around 65%. However it quite often causes redness, dryness and irritation. You can stop for a while and then try again with a lower strength product if this occurs. A moisturizer formulated for acne-prone skin will also help.<br />
<br />
Benzoyl peroxide is a mild bleach and may cause discolouration of hair and clothing. Keep it away from your eyebrows and facial hair.<br />
<br />
<b>4. Antibiotics</b><br />
<br />
Your doctor or dermatologist may prescribe to you antibiotic creams (topical antibiotics). Unfortunately the most common form of acne is becoming more and more resistant to antibiotics and they are becoming less effective as they once were, with the acne reappearing very quickly once treatment has been stopped. For this reason oral antibiotics are not as commonly prescribed as they were in the past, although they can help clear up an outbreak in the short term. Antibiotic cream can be used for longer periods.<br />
<br />
<b>5. Phototherapy</b><br />
<br />
Although sunlight often helps clear up acne in the short term, in the long term it will only encourage the skin to produce more and more oils that block the pores. Recently however scientists have discovered that using selective light therapy in the form of visible blue light applied daily can have the positive effect of reducing acne by up to 65%, and up to 75% if red light is added. However you will need special equipment which comes at a cost but compared with the cost of buying other acne products week after week for several years it is not excessive.<br />
<br />
Although it may not be realistic to expect acne to disappear completely, there is much that can be done with acne treatment skin care to lessen its severity and make life happier and easier for those who are affected by it.<br />

<br />
The best way to get rid of acne is by preventing its appearance. Keep your face clean and maintain a good and healthy lifestyle. This way, you won't give any reasons for acne to thrive on your skin. If you already have existing acne, you first need to eliminate the current blemishes and other pimples. Here are just a few tips to treat them so they would disappear and not multiply.<br />
<br />
<b>First</b> of all, when you see a small pimple, try to avoid the temptation of popping it. Popping it can cause it to multiply as it can spread the infection underneath the skin and the next morning you'd find dozens of them on your face! If ever you do pop a zit, make sure you wash it with soap and water or some alcohol to avoid the risk of infection.<br />
<br />
<b>Second</b>, wash your face morning and night using mild soap or facial wash. You need to keep your face clean but you don't need strong cleansers to do this. Stay with the mild ones so you would avoid irritation.<br />
<br />
<b>Third</b>, choose the right toner. Toner is the new astringent as it's a lot gentler to the skin. After washing your face, apply facial toner.<br />
<br />
<b>Fourth</b>, exfoliate. Don't exfoliate your skin everyday! Exfoliate every three days and use a gentle scrub. Don't use a product that once used would make your face feel like it's been scrubbed by sandpaper. Your facial skin is really sensitive and it can't handle such beating. Be gentle with it.<br />
<br />
<b>Lastly</b>, get enough sleep. Not enough sleep can cause pimple breakouts so make sure you get 8 hours of sleep a night. Sleep is a very important thing as it reduces your stress level. Stress influences acne breakouts so in order to reduce your stress level, get some sleep! When you have plenty of sleep, you don't only get rid of acne but you feel much happier too!<br />
<br />
As we saw in the beginning of this article, prevention is one of the key to your victory against acne. You can now find acne treatments that kill the acne bacteria and prevent it from growing and spread to other areas. These kits can also take care of your skin from the inside. Indeed, supplements, combined to common gels and creams, are very helpful to balance your body when your system and hormones are doing their work, unfortunately resulting in acne as one side effect. A pimple needs 2 to 3 weeks to actually be visible at the surface of your skin. By attacking acne from the inside you prevent future spots to appear. Your acne treatment creams are then more effective to clean your skin from external impurities and leave your skin clear.<br />

Each year, individuals find out that the over the counter medications that they get at their local drug store just do not provide enough help to them. They have likely tried several products and can not find method to get rid of acne. Acne laser treatment can actually help to stop acne once and for all for many individuals.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"> How Does It Work?</span><br /><br />Acne laser treatment is just what it sounds like. The technician will use a very powerful and small laser to effectively trigger the acne. Usually, the procedure will be done because the acne is being caused, at least in part, by over producing oils in the skin. The laser will get to these glands that are under the skin and causing the oils and destroy them. While this seems harsh, laser acne treatment is virtually painless. There are no ramifications to having these glands destroyed either. Once the glands stop producing oils, the bacteria that cause acne will not have an optimal place to grow. This in turn effectively stops acne.<br /><br />It is important to know that in most causes acne treatments will not necessary cure the acne that is already on your face or body. This will usually be done with antibiotics. Once the oils slow or stop though, there will be fewer outbreaks of acne on the face or body once these heal.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Scar Treatment</span><br /><br />Another option for the use of acne laser treatment is that in which the acne scars can be removed. This very powerful laser can actually remove the top layers of your skin near and on the scar. When new skin grows back, it will be healthy and scars are either gone or they are not as visible. Acne scar laser treatment is fast becoming a way to get rid of acne scars that have been on a person’s body for years.<br /><br />In either treatment, laser acne treatment can be quite effective. In some cases, there will be the need for several treatments to be done, though. The only bad part of acne laser treatment is that it is not necessarily cheap. With the several treatments that may be necessary, it may be quite expensive. Yet, even with that said, the results for laser treatments are amazing for many. </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="" articletext=""><a href="http://www.articlerich.com/">Article Source</a>: http://www.articlerich.com</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="articletext"> </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="articletext"> Our experts have executed a research to find the best acne treatments.

Old wives’ tales about its causes continue to persist, in spite of scientific condition to the contrary. This article aims to shed light on some common myths about acne and attempts to separate fact from fiction.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Myth 1:</span> People who have acne are unclean and maintain poor hygiene<br />There is absolutely no truth to this statement. Acne is caused by a hormonal imbalance in the body. When the oil glands responsible for keeping our skin waterproof and moist, over react to produce excessive quantities of sebum, they block the associated hair follicle, causing <a href="http://www.inforesearcher.com/health.php" target="_blank">clogged pores</a>, which develops into acne. So hygiene has absolutely nothing to do with it. In fact unnecessary scrubbing of the skin can exacerbate the problem. Do take care of your skin though - wash your face gently and pat dry.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Myth 2:</span> Eating the wrong foods will lead to acne<br />The fact is that there is no co-relation between what you eat and acne. The chocolates, the French fires, the cheese pizza, and all those other fatty foods that have been lambasted ever so often, because of their unhealthy consequence have no affect whatsoever on your skin. However, eating a well balanced diet makes sense. So while you don’t have to be concerned as to whether your favorite treat affects your skin, do remember that it does affect your overall health.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Myth 3:</span> Acne is caused by stress<br />The truth is that the stress that most of us experience as part of our day-to-day existence does not lead to acne. Sometimes, acne can arise as the side-effect of drugs taken to treat severe stress. Talk to your doctor to find out if your stress medication is responsible for your acne.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Myth 4:</span> Acne is a merely a cosmetic disease<br />Well, acne does affect the way you look and yes, it is considered a threat to your physical well being. However, the fact remains that in some cases acne can lead to permanent scarring which is more than just purely cosmetic. Acne affects people psychologically. It is known to affect their perception of themselves, their self-esteem and confidence and their interaction with others. It can cause feelings of frustration, depression and social embarrassment.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"> Myth 5:</span> Acne will take the time it will take to heal<br />With the kind of products that are available in the market today, there is no reason why anyone should have to suffer the agony caused by acne. The fact is that acne can be cleared up with the right medication. Consult your dermatologist if you have acne. </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="" articletext=""><a href="http://www.articlerich.com/">Article Source</a>: http://www.articlerich.com</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="articletext"> </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="articletext">Jack Smith writes about all sorts of great topics.

It tends to show up as only eruptions on the face and else where on your skin. It is a signal that you have problems somewhere deep within your body. Acne can be caused by a dirty colon, poor food digestion, a weak liver and other conditions that will cause your blood to carry too much toxic materials.<br /></div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="articletext"><br />In order to clear acne, it is not always possible to stick to one treatment and expect it to go away. However, it may be possible to just use one special cream and see your acne literally disappear.<br /><br />Acne may go away by just doing one thing but do not expect that forever. A facial cream, proper diet, herbal treatment, exercise, and colon cleanse themselves may not be able to get the job done. You will need to perform a certain combination to see desired results.<br /><br />An important concept to remember is if your facial pores are not open or cleaned, they can build up toxic oil which is very hard to clean. This results in a growth or pimple that begins to increase in size as more toxic oil tries to reach the surface of your skin. If the pore walls burst under the skin, white blood cells move in to digest the collagen around the pores. This results in major scars appearing on your face.<br /><br />To avoid visible scars, you will need to start an acne cleansing program before or just as soon as you see acne coming. This will ultimately prevent pimples and back heads getting to the point where they are severely infected and burst.<br /><br />Living with acne over a long period of time, (mostly during your teen years), can be emotionally stressful. Keep in mind; this is the age where your appearance is the most important. Teen acne is specifically hard on the ego. Many times this results in the basic teasing from your classmates. Because of this many teens not only suffer from the obvious acne, but also depression.<br /><br />During their adolescent years, a high percentage of teenagers will have at least one whitehead, blackhead, or pimple. Teenage acne usually occurs between the ages of 12 and 20. This is usually the result of conflicting hormone levels. Once the hormones are in order, the acne will usually disappear in a short amount of time.<br /><br />Eating healthy and drinking plenty of water will help by keeping your skin hydrated. Girls should preferably use oil free cosmetics. Lightly exfoliating once a week will help open the pores, and remove dead skin cells.<br /><br />Smaller cases of acne can be controlled by using over the counter medicines that are applied directly to the skin. These medications almost always include benzoyl peroxide as an active ingredient.<br /><br />Natural products that can be used to treat acne are tea tree oil or green tea. You should wash your face twice a day with a mixture of these herbs in order to reduce the number of break outs. Both ingredients have anti inflammatory qualities.<br /><br />As teenagers get older and their hormones are in full control, their acne should have started to disappear. Some people continue to have outbreaks even as during their adult life. If the teenage acne condition worsens or becomes emotionally debilitating, it is very important see a dermatologist. </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="" articletext=""><a href="http://www.articlerich.com/">Article Source</a>: http://www.articlerich.com</p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="articletext"> </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;" class="articletext"> For more important health articles visit Donald's Health Website. <a href="http://updated-health-news.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">updated-health-news.blogspot.com</a></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4465232541186900156.post-51369973089303556092007-06-06T06:38:00.000-07:002007-06-06T06:53:40.233-07:00Understanding Acne<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Acne Scar Removal</span><br />People who have been left with acne scars can find hope in procedures recommended by dermatologists. There are several methods of removal or smoothing of the scars depending on age, health condition and severity.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Acne Scarring - Cause and Treatment</span><br />Usually, the mild form of acne occurring in most people does not leave scars, or if it does, the scars heal naturally over time. But people suffering from severe forms of acne such as Nodulocystic acne might be left with deep scars in the skin.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Acne Statistics</span><br />Acne is one of the most common skin diseases in the United States. It is not contagious, but rather develops most prevalently during the teenage years and the early 20s. Acne is caused by an excess production of oil in the sebaceous glands.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Acne Treatment with Vitamin B-5</span><br />Studies found out the multitude of positive effects of treating Acne with vitamin b-5.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Adult Acne</span><br />Normally 95% of the people affected by acne are infected with acne in their teenage years. The other 5% develop acne during middle age (30-40is and beyond) and mainly due to hormonal changes.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Are there different kinds of Acne that different age groups get?</span><br />Acne not only occurs in teens, as the number of adults suffering from acne has been increasing in the last decade. In 1999, Goulden and Cunliffe published their study of rising cases of acne in adulthood (Prevalence of facial Acne in Adults); they noted that the mean age of patients treated for Acne had increased in a decade from 20.5 years to 26.5 years.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">At What Age Do People Generally Stop Getting Acne?</span><br />There is a misconception among people that teenagers are the only ones who experience acne breakouts.
