Despite the fact that acne is extremely common, there is still a stigma attached to it, especially in adults, as it is often thought of as something that only happens to teenagers or as a result of an unhealthy lifestyle. People with oily skin tend to break out more than others, but there are a few ways to help those affected by blemishes.

clean daily

Those with oily skin will find that washing their face at least twice a day will be beneficial. However, once a day for normal skin may be all the skin can tolerate, as too much cleansing can cause excessive dryness and irritation, ultimately making breakouts worse.

exfoliates

Gentle exfoliation will keep your skin in good condition and remove dead skin that can lead to clogged pores and acne.

Too many face creams and moisturizers will overburden the skin and could cause blemishes. You’ll need some moisturizer, so maybe use a lighter one to control acne breakouts.

If you participate in activities that make you sweat more, you should always take a shower. Your acne will get worse when the oil produced by sweating simply sits on your skin, because the chances of your pores becoming blocked will increase. A quick shower will help prevent acne breakouts from getting worse.

The cause of acne is the same no matter how old you are. Acne is a skin condition caused by hormones in the body that activate the sebaceous glands and produce excess oil. When skin cells don’t shed properly, they clog the pores, trapping oil and bacteria. As oil and bacteria build up, they swell and push outward, forming whiteheads, blackheads, and blemishes.

Acne problems can easily be made worse by piling on makeup to try to hide blemishes and picking at pimples. When you wake up with a facial breakout, you want to hide your face from the world, and when acne scars your face, it’s very demoralizing to accept that your skin will never look smooth or flawless. Fortunately, these days there are many solutions that can help.

Advanced laser technology is very effective for adult acne, adolescent acne, and various degrees of acne: severe, moderate, or mild. Laser light activates the body’s natural acne-fighting defenses, reducing breakouts now and in the future.

Microdermabrasion and chemical peels are also excellent acne scar treatments. They work by removing the top layer of dead skin and revealing fresh, radiant new skin underneath. Both treatments help clients get rid of unsightly acne scars, fine lines, uneven skin tones, and clogged pores.
