Health/Weight Loss Add commentsShort-term boon or long-term solution; exfoliation versus ClearPores
Acne is the common enemy of almost all teenagers and of a good number of adults, too. Although acne involves physical pain only in the most severe cases, the condition has a negative psychological impact because of its high level of visibility. Acne is right there in your face, where everybody can see it. Every mirror is a reminder that your skin is working against you and that you cannot escape it. In a world obsessed with physical perfection and social interaction, acne is not a burden easily born. Early breakthroughs in the use of various substances and the large number of patients willing to try anything has been the basis of finding new methods of curing acne, whether permanently or temporarily.
One of the best ways to fight mild cases of acne is to speed up the natural exfoliation process of your skin. Exfoliation is the process by which the topmost layer of your skin, which contains many dead cells, is removed by mechanical or chemical means. Clearing away dead skin helps prevent the clogging of pores by a combination of excess sebum and dead cells. Exfoliation is not meant in the visible sense of the word, since you won not see skin peeling away as in the case of shedding. The topmost layer of your skin is too thin to be seen with the naked eye.
The recommended procedures for speeding up the exfoliation process feature the use of mechanical means (abrasive cloths or liquid scrubs) or chemical means (Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid). Salicylic Acid is actually the most recommended exfoliation agent, since it also helps to unclog pores whose openings have already been obstructed by sebum and dead cells. In this manner, your skin will be pimple-free for a longer period of time. Over-the-counter Salicylic Acid solution or cotton pads soaked in Acid should be available in every pharmacy or drugstore. You can safely and easily use these at home to take care of acne flare-ups.
However, if you are interested in employing a better solution to your acne problems, you can try the ClearPores system. This amazingly-effective system combines the cleansing power of the Salicylic Acid and Alcohol SD with herbal pills and a protection cream in order to rid you of acne now and also to prevent future acne flare-ups. The herbal pills kill bacteria which tend to thrive in clogged pores, the deep facial and body washes open up the pores and cleanse the dirt and grime and, finally, the protection cream acts as a shield for your skin. As you can see, ClearPores is not a single product, but a full solution designed to destroy acne with the utmost effectiveness.

Acne scars – a review
Acne scars are the marks left behind by lesions that had not healed or had become inflamed. Their size, frequency and type depend on various genetic factors, which are particular to every person. Some persons are more likely to see scars forming on their skin, due to their heritage and skin colour. This is why many people want to make sure their lesions will heal properly.
There are only two types of acne scars. The simplest scar is nothing more than a spot of skin bearing a brown, pink or purple colour, testimony to the fact that… Continue reading
Who gets acne?
Believe it or not, nearly everybody in the world gets pimples. When the body shifts into higher gear and puberty begins at the age of 12, hormones start taking over. It doesn not matter if you抮e a man or a woman. It doesn not matter where you come from and who your parents were. I have never heard of a person who had stayed blemish-free in all the years of his or her life. Whether it抯 food or pollution, something is bound to upset your hormonal balance sooner or later.

How hormones affect zits and skin
Implicated in a wide range of conditions and illnesses, hormones also play a role in the development of acne - inflammation of the skin that causes blackheads, whiteheads, and red spots usually called “pimples” or “zits.” Androgens, hormones that are secreted in different amounts by both men and women, play a huge role in most cases of acne. Androgens stimulate the hormone-sensitive sebaceous glands, which produce oil known as sebum. Sebum, in turn, has been labeled as “the fuel that feeds the flame of acne.”
Teens are more likely to suffer from breakouts because at… Continue reading
