Acne Skin Care Treatment - Tips For A Healthier Looking Skin
Acne is caused by an overproduction
of sebum, a substance which
is produced by your Sebaceous
glands. Your Sebaceous glands
can be found on your face,
upper neck and chest. Sebum
production increases during
adolescence and starts to
wean around the age of 20.
This does not mean that acne
vanishes at age 20. Infact,
acne, which is usually thought
of as a teenager's skin care
issue affects adults both
female and male.
Treating acne requires patience,
finding the right acne treatment
products and sticking to a
good treatment routine. Here
are tips on what to do and
what to avoid.
Dos
Cleanse. Fighting acne requires
you to establish a daily routine
of gently washing your face
with a good acne skin cleanser.
Acne skin cleansers will get
rid of the accumulated makeup,
oils, sweat and dirt on your
face. There are skin cleansers
for various types of skin
types: oily, dry, sensitive
and normal. You will want
to buy the correct product
for your skin type.
Exfoliate. Exfoliation allows
your new skin cells to shine
through by getting rid of
your dead skin cells. The
result is a new replenished
look that helps give your
skin a youthful, fresh appearance.
It is advisable to exfoliate
more during the summer months
since you tend to sweat more.
Moisturize even if you have
oily skin. Choose the right
moisturizer for your skin
type.
Use "noncomedogenic" comestics
and skin care products. These
products do not clog your
pores.
Consult a day spa esthetician
or dermatologist for expert
advice, if your problem gets
consistently worse.
Don'ts
Do not overwash your face.
Do not scrub or rub your skin
excessively.
Never pop, squeeze or pick
at acne. This spreads the
inflammation and makes things
worse.
If you find that certain foods
aggravate your acne, try to
avoid them (e.g. oily foods
such as fast food).
Avoid excessive sun, tanning
booths and sun lamps.
Avoid excessive sweating or
humidity.
