As a registered nurse, I've learned a lot over the years about acne, acne scars, and acne treatments. Living with acne can be very difficult, and even more difficult to find the right acne treatment for you. Acne is caused by the clogging of the follicle of a skin gland causing a pimple to grow. For most people, acne goes away by age 30, but people in their forties and fifties still get acne. Acne will affect almost every person at some stage of their life. Nearly 17 million people in the United States have acne. People of all races and ages get acne. Most pimples are found on the face, neck, back, chest, and shoulders. The cause of acne is really unknown. Acne, zits, pimples, blackheads, whiteheads and many other skin disorders are usually, but not always, the result of a bad diet. Experts just can't agree on what causes acne. There is still much to be learned about what causes acne. A skin specialist in a dermatology clinic in New York is now using a combination of red light and blue light therapy to treat severe cases of acne, and successfully so. Some natural home remedies include dabbing on non-gel toothpaste to dry out zits or lemon juice. It's always best to seek non-invasive treatment for any skin condition. Use baking soda very carefully when you exfoliate. One good natural method is to apply a thin layer of coconut oil and massage it deep into the skin to heal and soothe it. Drinking pure, filtered water may be the best acne treatment working from the inside out. Besides acne, if you also have eczema or dry skin, coconut oil will treat those skin conditions too. Acne scars can give the skin an aging look. The good news is there are several types of treatments to choose from for acne scar removal. Acne is not a serious health threat but, it can cause scars so treat it early. The liver sluffs off toxins from bad foods, drinks, drugs and chemicals and sends them through your skin resulting in skin eruptions, acne, pimples and other skin disorders. In any case, no matter what skin or acne treatment you choose, whether it is chemical, drugs, alternative, or natural methods, changing your diet will result in your overall good health! Some alternative doctors recommend eating raw cloves of garlic daily for acne. When you change your diet, your lesions should be getting better within 30 days. For an easy fiber boost, mix in two tablespoons of ground up flaxseeds in raw applesauce, from 2-3 apples, made in your food processor. Eat high-fiber snacks like raw nuts, raw seeds, and dried fruit, such as dates, and figs. Consider taking cod liver oil or fish oil supplements every day. Unclean skin favors the development of pathogenic organisms - the dead cells that continually slough off of the epidermis mix with the secretions of the sweat and sebaceous glands and the dust found on the skin to form a filthy layer on its surface. The skin supports its own ecosystems of microorganisms, including yeasts and bacteria, which cannot be removed by any amount of cleaning. With cheap, safe, simple, natural, effective, alternative, home treatments for acne and pimples, your skin should be well on its way to recovery. You should see the results of your acne home treatment remedies with improved skin within just a few days. In any case, try not to panic about your acne and take it day by day.
