Acne Treatment - How to Take Care of Your Skin

Posted by admin | Acne Treatment Informations | Tuesday 18 December 2007 2:30 am

Basic skins care for acne can help you control aggravation and stop scars to a certain extent. Please take the following care -

1. Don’t pick acne. Trying to squeeze out blackheads or whiteheads may lead to further infection. Picking up acne at second stage may lead to scarring.

2.There is a misconception that excessive sweat or dirt can cause acne. In blackheads what you see black is not dirt but oxidized sebum. Please don’t be harsh with your skin. That will aggravate the acne condition. Gently clean your face with mild soap or cleansers formulated to care for acne and warm water. Pat dry, don’t rub.

3. Use noncomedogenic cosmetics and skin care products. Noncomedogenic products are certified to not cause or aggravate acne.

4.Protect your skin with sunscreens. Avoid getting tanned. If you are under treatment for acne, consult your doctor about sun exposure as some medicines make your skin more sensitive to sun.

5. Facials may aggravate your acne. Avoid any kind of facial if you have an acne outbreak.

6. Do you have the habit of touching your acne frequently? Avoid that. Also avoid any bangs coming on the forehead.

7. If you think that more than recommended dose of cream/lotions prescribed for your acne will cure acne faster, it is time to change your thinking. That may harm you rather than helping you.

8. Keep your face free of make up as much as possible. Let the skin breath fresh air. Acne prone skin needs fresh air.

9.Avoid using any oil or oil rich product for your hair. Use oil free hair care products. Oily hair may worsen your acne.

10. Don’t get worried if your medication does not produce immediate result in treating acne. Consult your doctor and find out the time during which you would get relief from acne. Don’t worry till then. Acne medication takes time to treat acne and produce clear skin.

Acne Treatment Scams Revealed

Posted by admin | Acne Treatment Informations | Tuesday 4 December 2007 4:06 am

Wouldn’t it be nice to have clear acne free skin and not have to worry about waking up to yet another bad skin day? Of course it would. And many low moral internet marketers know that’s what you want too - you’re easy money to them.

They know that they can sell you a useless product with the promise of smooth, clear skin and the guarantee that you can rid yourself of the psychological pain that acne causes . They want you to believe that their “latest breakthrough” or “miracle herb from the rainforests of South America will give you results beyond your wildest dreams - the sad truth is that it’s highly unlikely that you’ll get any results at all.

How do I know this? Because I’ve tried just about every product and guide out there, I need to tell you straight that 99% of the products available are completely useless and 99.9% of the people selling them are complete frauds. Of course, there are a few exceptions.

To cut to the chase, I contacted every internet site selling acne “cures” that I could and told them I was either interested in buying their business or acting as a distributor (obviously I can’t go into too much detail about what I actually said to them otherwise they’ll work out who I am). As soon as these people thought they were going to get a big deal out of this that would make them rich they were unbelievably willing to spill the beans on what they really thought about what they were selling. The results were shocking to say the least.

One owner boasted to me that he knew full well that his information product (a guide to acne treatment at home) was less than useless but that most customers were too stupid to go through the complicated procedure he had set up for them to receive a refund.

Another told me that there was nothing in the herbal formula that she sold that could in any way clear acne, but she knew that acne sufferers were “so desperate they’d buy anything”.

These people are laughing all the way to the bank with your money.

I don’t really want to leave you feeling so negative after reading this, the good news is that there are several acne treatment programs out there that really do work. It just takes a long time to figure out which ones they are.

There is one product in particular that stands out in my mind, when I approached the website owner (in the way I mentioned above) they really seemed to believe in what they were selling and that it could make a difference to their customers.

I think the lesson from all this is - buyer beware. Especially on the internet where there are many faceless companies fighting for control of our wallets and purses.

All the best in your search for clear skin.
