December 1, 2008 by Marcel Stephenson · 1 Comment
Acne is something neither of my parents told me about, yet they both went through their teens, with acne problems of their own. I truly wished, they both would have had a talk with me before I became the scourge of the universe.
To tell the truth, they did talk to me about my little condition. But what they told me didn't give me much hope for my outbreaks. I had to try to find my own solution to the problem, since my parents never discovered it for themselves. Sad, don't you think?
When changing into an adult, we go through hormonal changes. Our hormones are affecting the oils that secretes from our sweat glands, which are bodies are not very impressed by. It's all very oily and loaded with bacteria. Since this a natural process, almost all teenagers are hit by acne at some point.
Our skin pores become loaded with this bacteria and dead skin cells that clog the pores of our faces, shoulders, necks, backs and other places too. These pimples we get are the acne. The acne is basically a reaction to this hormonal change.
Here are some helpful tips.
1. Don't believe the hype about the acne products.
You will go to the drugstore to get some acne treatments. You can't help yourself, because the drugstore is right down the street.
There are a lot of crap products being sold over the counter. Some of these work, some doesn't. If you know what you are looking for, you will find some awesome products that really work. Look, first, at the active ingredients. Look at the "caution" label. If it says that the product might cause skin irritation, you might want to let it go for now.
2. Don't scrub or start popping the zits.
Popping zits is one of the worst things you can do, and must stop now. It will only spread more bacteria to your already infected pores. Scrubbing your face raw is also something that has to stop. This irritates the infected area, and can spread the infection even further.
When your pimples are ready to pop, they will. The urge to pop these zits can be overwhelming, They itch and hurt. Let them pop on their own accord. This way, you are not impacting the pore and causing it to be more swollen and infected later.
3. Change your lifestyle.
What ever you put into your body will come out of it. If you eat already processed food, such as a bag of potato chips, your body, the organic food processor, doesn't have to work very hard to digest the food.
Your body is trying to get rid of that oily, hormonal mess. You can help your body by eating healthier, and not adding to that mess. By doing this you have less acne breakouts.
4. Try the miracle cures, before seeing a dermatologist.
There are a lot of miracle cures to cure acne quickly. You might have seen some of them on the TV commercials. Try these before you go to the dermatologist. The dermatologist is the last resort. You don't have anything to lose. If they work, good for you. If they don't work, maybe it's time to book an appointment by the dermatologist.
