Acne Tips and Treatments

By Andy Smith


Acne affects over 50 million people in the United States alone and 20 million have permanent acne scars. That's a impressive number. While everybody gets acne at some point in their life, some get it worse than others.

Even though acne is well known to usually appear during puberty, when hormone imbalances are present and body changes affect most children going into adulthood, facial acne infliction can still break down the self-confidence of these young adults.

And because of this self-consciousness, many of these early teen children react in ways that can make matters worse, as they search for a quick fix. Squeezing out the infected pore, and applying medications that will over dry the skin, will only leave skin in poor condition, with scarring and damage for a very long time.

Of course it is very easy for one to say "have a positive attitude," it is understandable and justified to feel low, depressed or anxious.... This is a normal human reaction. However, you may want to try and have positive thoughts; this really is the best way to approach your skin condition. Remember that acne is a treatable skin condition and there are a huge number of methods available! Acne is moderate when the condition covers less than half of your face, arms, back; or where ever you skin condition arises. It is important to realise that acne can cause scars if not treated effectively so it is vital for you to act quickly to begin reducing acne.

It also allows them to see that they are not alone in the development of this condition, especially within their age group. But what most people will find surfing the internet for a cure for their acne, is a plethora of advertisements for acne treatments.

A dermatologist will have certain treatments to treat acne pimples. They may use laser and intense pulsed light treatments that may have success with your acne. Your dermatologist will tell you what is the best treatment for you.

Today there are several holistic treatments available. Good one's will provide you with a blue print, step by step guide of what you need to in regard to life style, diet, sleeping patters and allergies. Hand in hand with the blueprint you will most likely use Chinese Herbal Remedies, they can be an effective way to quickly reduce your skin condition whilst the life style and diet changes begin to take effect. The big positive with the holistic method is that you can't really use ineffective treatments as the whole process is designed to cleanse your body, improve your diet and generally serve to improve your whole well-being.
