Acne Home Treatment

Acne Home Treatment
Acne is not caused by dirt, which is one of the commonest acne myths; in fact those with acne probably have the cleanest faces of all. But over cleaning your face can over stimulate the sebaceous glands and cause you to have more spots as it can exacerbate the condition.
Mix lemon juice and rose water together, apply over face with a cotton ball, and leave for half an hour and then rinse. Try this for 20-25 days.

Acne stats

Acne is a common, in fact, predominant skin disorder that affects all nations, races and genders regardless of their ethnic backgrounds geographical location or environmental conditions.  The resulting impact is even more troublesome. According to a recent survey done in US, about 25% of adults and 31% of teens surveyed said that acne sometimes keeps them fromparticipating in social activities. It has been. Today, dermatologists have a consensus that only few people survive their teen years without suffering at least an occasional acne break-out.

Acne Laser Treatment

Acne Laser Treatment

Extremely severe acne does not always respond to treatment. Medicines such as antibiotics cannot safely be used for months on end and often stopping the medicine results in the spots coming back and the user can become resistant to the antibiotic so over time it does not work anymore. Over the counter creams are often caustic and very harsh to the skin which may irritate the acne and can cause premature lines. If the acne is very extreme it needs aggressive treatment, some of these treatments can contain retinoids and or birth control pills, side effects are likely and taking these medications long term can be harmful and again, the spots can return if the treatment is stopped. One treatment that is very effective is laser acne treatment.
