Neither of my parents told me about acne. Since both of them had acne problems of their own, I really wish they would have spoken to me about it. It might have helped me prepare for becoming the scourge of the universe.
Both of my parents did, in fact, talk to me about my zit condition, after the fact. What they both had to say, really did not give me a lot of faith that I would come through this with flying colors. I had to find out, on my own, what my parents never really discovered for themselves. How sad is that?
Acne is a condition that hits most teens at some point. This is Mother Nature’s way of saying, “You are hormonally changing into an adult”. Our hormones begin to affect the oils that secrete from our sweat glands. It is oily and loaded with bacteria, that our bodies find; less than inviting.
Our skin pores on our faces, shoulders, backs, and necks get clogged up with this bacteria and dead skin cells. This will cause pimples, as a reaction to the hormonal change. This is what is referred to as acne.
Here are some tips that can help you.
1. Don’t fall for the ‘acne product-hype’
You will go to the drugstore to get some acne treatments. You can’t help yourself, because the drugstore is right down the street.
There are a lot of crap products being sold over the counter. Some of these work, some doesn’t. If you know what you are looking for, you will find some awesome products that really work. Look, first, at the active ingredients. Look at the “caution” label. If it says that the product might cause skin irritation, you might want to let it go for now.
2. Don’t pop or scrub the zits.
Popping zits is one of the worst things you can do, and must stop now. It will only spread more bacteria to your already infected pores. Scrubbing your face raw is also something that has to stop. This irritates the infected area, and can spread the infection even further.
When your pimples are ready to pop, they will. The urge to pop these zits can be overwhelming, They itch and hurt. Let them pop on their own accord. This way, you are not impacting the pore and causing it to be more swollen and infected later.
3. Lifestyle change
Your body is an organic processor; what you put into it comes out of it. When you are ingesting a bag of potato chips, this food is already processed. Your body does not have to work very hard at breaking the processed potato chips down and digest this food source.
Your body is trying to eliminate the oily hormonal mess that is going on. If you eat healthier you will help your body on the way. You will see the results in less acne.
4. Only see a dermatologist after you have tried the miracle cures
Going to the dermatologist is normally the last resort. There are a couple of miracle cures that can cure acne quickly. Try a few of these first, you don’t have anything to lose. If one of them works, you are much better off. If not, you might want to head off for the dermatologist.
