When you suffer from acne, there are things you can do to help your skin fight it. The reason you have acne is because dead skin, oils, and toxins from your body clog your pores and get stuck under your skin. When this happens, you get blackheads, pimples, and skin spots. But living with acne is not something you have to so, it is a choice you make. It is a choice because you have options with which to combat acne, and not all of them involve expensive trips to the dermatologist. Some of them you can do right at home. Keeping your skin clean and healthy is often the first step to getting rid of acne. Not only do you need to help your pores say free of dirt and grime, but cleansing the skin will help open the pores that are already clogged to unclog and finally breathe again!

The first thing you should do is to make sure you wash your face with a good washcloth and an inexpensive acne cleanser at least twice a day, maybe even three times a day. When you wash, make sure to take your time and really scrub your skin with the acne cleanser. Acne cleanser that has micro-beads works very well. What this will do is it will help clean away dirt, dead skin, and oil, which will in turn allow your skin to heal naturally. Don’t scrub so hard that you hurt the skin, just good enough that it will clean. Simply patting the skin with a wash cloth does nothing, because it is not clearing away dead skin and oil, it is just getting your face wet.

It is also recommended that you get some good acne cream that you can apply after washing. Most acne creams will keep your face from drying out and will also treat the tiny wounds left by acne with antibiotics and will help clean them out. This can make a huge difference with your acne, and can often be enough so that you won’t even need to see an expensive dermatologist to get rid of your acne. Just remember to keep up your cleansing routine every day, as even one day missed can bring back another outbreak, which is exactly what you want to avoid. Keep washing, scrubbing, and applying your acne cream, and you should start seeing results in even just a few days, if you have good acne cream.

{October 29, 2008}   Acne Cause, Care And Prevention

Acne is not a disease but a skin problem that affects people largely in the 12-24 age group. However, a few adults, both men and women, may suffer from acne especially if they were plagued by pimples during their teenage years.

It is important to understand how acne occurs. During puberty the secretion of sex hormones stimulates the activity of the sebaceous glands. Under normal circumstances the sebum passes thought a duct and is released through the pore on to the surface of the skin.

But because of excessive secretion of sebum the skin pore gets blocked. Retention keratosis or improper shedding of skin cells can also block the skin pore. If this closed skin pore gets infected by bacteria, it erupts in the form of acne. Acne can occur in the form of whiteheads, blackheads, papules or cysts.

A similar situation is noticed during pregnancy and menopause in women. Your lifestyle, health and genes contribute to acne problems as well. It has been shown that a person suffering from stress related problems is more vulnerable to acne than his counterparts. This is why you might suffer from recurring acne while your friend might suffer from mild acne problems.

There are different kinds of inflammation. Whiteheads or blackheads, also known as comedones, are smaller and take a longer time to heal. Pimples are pus filled papules which are commonly observed in the face. Mature pimples are painful and are larger in size when compared to comedones. Scarring is a possibility if the pimple is pinched out in an inappropriate manner. Acne cysts are usually deep seated in the skin and are very painful. They should be treated by a dermatologist.

Acne flare ups can occur in any part of the body but they are most commonly seen in the face since the facial skin is most sensitive. The other parts of the body where acne can occur are neck, chest and back.

You should avoid applying direct pressure on the pimple to reduce redness or swelling as this does more harm than good. About 40% of the eruptions are present on the surface of the skin. The remaining 60% are present beneath the surfaces of the skin. Hence it is likely that you might push the infection further downward. This worsens the conditions and can trigger fresh breakouts. You should also avoid touching pimples because bacteria present on your hands can re-infect the pimple.

A good way to avoid the outbreak of acne is to maintain a healthy diet that comprises of a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables and water. These flush out the toxins from the body and improve the tone and texture of your skin. You should also avoid using heavy make up because oil-based creams block skin pores.



Detox stands for detoxification, and generally these diets are ones that remove harmful environmental toxins from your body by eliminating the source-poor food choices. First, you should minimize and eventually stop eating foods that contain harmful additive chemicals. Organic food is substituted instead. Next, add foods to your diet that promote healthy detoxification by providing the nutrients your body needs. Lastly, foods that are high in fiber and water are very important so that toxins can be drawn out of your body quickly and regularly.

Detox diets can be used to help with skin problems, digestive diseases, addiction, and other health concerns. It is important to be sure that you are eating in a way that is healthy for your body, so if you have other conditions, such as an eating disorder, diabetes, epilepsy, cancer, heart disease, ulcers, or low blood pressure, check with your doctor before beginning this new type of diet.

Detox diet is not suggested for those who are pregnant or nursing. If you have an adverse side effect, such as diarrhea, stomach pains, or drastic weight loss, talk to your doctor. When beginning a detox diet, you may experience headaches or be tired. This is normal, but if it does not improve, see your doctor.
