Acne

Acne vulgaris is the most common skin disease in industrial nations. It usually begins during puberty, in line with hormone changes, and may persist into later adulthood. Approximately 80-90% of young people are affected to some degree with blemishes and 20-30% of these people will seek medical support. A number of issues contribute to acne such as hormones, climate, certain medications and genetics can trigger sebum production. The majority of acne cases vanish spontaneously after puberty. Nevertheless, effective treatment is needed to prevent the formation of lasting scars.

Treatments for Acne:
Acne and the scarring that go along with this condition can be treated with an array of products. Some products can do more harm to the skin than good. There are products on the market that temporarily help the skin but then once you cease using them the skin erupts worse than ever!
Other evasive options to help acne and scarring include skin resurfacing. Chemical peel, dermabrasion, and laser resurfacing are the most commonly used techniques for improving the texture and appearance of the skin. Although these techniques use different methods, they have basically the same effect on the skin, they destroy and remove the upper layers of skin to allow for skin regrowth.

Chemical peels…just the thought of these two words is enough to send some people running for the hills!

Acne is a common problem among teens and even mature adults – and probably responsible for many shed tears and sleepless nights and lack of confidence.
People will try every remedy in their desperate attempt to get rid of pimples, such as applying toothpaste, fresh fruit or even castor oil to the afflicted areas!
With so many acne myths out there, it’s important to know exactly what is going on with your skin!

Myth #1: It might be hereditary

According to the medical research, you can’t blame mum and dad for this one!
The Internet Health Library states that while some experts do acknowledge that acne tends to be more common in children of acne-afflicted parents, “acne is not an inherited disease in the medical sense of the word”.
It seems that getting acne is a game of luck – some children inherit it, while others escape scot-free.

Myth #2: It might have something to do with your diet

This myth is hotly contested. Some people believe eating chocolate or fatty foods can cause pimples, while others argue that there is no medical research to support the links between diet and acne.
To be on the safe side, dermatologists tend to advise people to eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables and follow a healthy diet, as this will help to improve overall skin health and wellbeing.
However, according to the British Skin Foundation, the cause of acne is physical: the result of excess skin oil and clogged pores. With the right products you can get the help for your skin and go on eating chocolate!

Myth #3: It might just get better on its own

Many people try to “wait out” bad acne, suffering from terrible sores and pimples for months if not years without getting help.
What they might not know is that acne doesn’t necessarily get better on its own – and if it does, there could be a long wait!

What is the best starting point for acne?

One of the best starting points for acne is to have an intensive salon peel, this will gently take away the dead skin cells which could be clogging the pores of the skin and this will allow the active ingredients of a good skincare brand to penetrate down the dermal level of the skin to start to detox, heal and repair.  Follow by using a good skincare regime morning and night.  (Try Juliette Armand 08 Acne Products)
