How To Get Rid Of Acne

By Bradd Alan


Dealing with acne is one of the greatest challenges to the modern teenager. This chronic skin condition when not dealt with completely can even spread to the early adult years with pronounced pimples and redness on the face, coupled with blackheads and whiteheads. The good news is that Acne is curable. You can use home remedies to deal with it, or go to a dermatologist to get your skin checked out and get the proper medication with antibiotics to avoid further infection.

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.

Some traditional methods have also been proven to cure acne such as application of raw egg whites, small bits of toothpaste, and honey or lemons on the affected areas. These may remove unwanted pimples on the face by leaving it overnight to take effect. Garlic paste is also another great recipe to fight acne, although dermatologists have proved none of these treatments.

Laser therapy is a much more advanced scientific method of dealing with acne infection. This method is quick and efficient, which means that you only need to visit the hospital once. Your doctor may apply different kinds of laser therapy depending on the nature and intensity of your pimples. 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 another modern technology used to treat troublesome pimples on the face. This technology normally involves reducing the size of the sebaceous glands to minimize the amount of oil they produce. This causes a temporary red appearance on the face because of the heat involved. Unlike the laser therapy, this skin therapy normally takes a bit of time to cure, sometimes even a few months.

Microdermabrasion is a much more recent method that involves elimination of the top layer of dead skin cells, and production of new ones so that any undesirable pimples are removed. Although this procedure requires several visits to the doctor, the results are amazing. This is a scientific procedure, and as such, you should maintain high standards of precaution.

You can also use some antibiotics to deal with acne. It is however important to have your dermatologist prescribe the right medication before trying any skin care products. Oral antibiotics work well to cure severe cases of acne by destroying bacteria and preventing the skin from scarring.

Additionally, you can also employ Isotretinoin, an effective method that people ignore because it is expensive. This method works well by lowering the level of sebum oil that your skin glands produce. This prevents pimples from sprouting on the face. It is important to seek medical attention before starting any skin care medication so that you avoid any reactions that may occur because of skin allergies.
