Acne Treatment Helps People Put their Best Face Forward
Acne is a disease that affects people around the world. It isn’t an American disease and it isn’t a disease that only affects teens. In today’s society almost anyone can be affected by the ravages of acne and the damage to skin it leaves behind. While acne is most commonly found on the face and neck it can also be found on the chest, back, arms, and legs.
There are many treatment options for those who suffer from chronic consistent acne. The available treatments consist of over the counter medications, prescription drugs, laser treatments and other invasive skin therapies. It is wise to begin with over the counter medications. There are four active ingredients for over the counter acne medications you should try at least one product that contains each of the four active ingredients before giving up on over the counter medications and moving along to the prescribed medications.
It is fairly safe to assume that increasing medications also bring increasing price tags. While girls have things a little better than the average guy (they can be prescribed oral contraceptives in order to combat acne) there are many different treatment options available. From birth control to antibiotics, and ointments and creams to stronger chemicals and prescription drugs the options seem fairly limitless and are continuously escalating in severity as well as risk.
There is another option which gets far less press because it is a rather costly process and not 100% effective. However, it bears mention as a treatment option because it is often successful to some degree of removal even if it doesn’t remove all signs of acne and/or acne scarring. Our faces are the first thing most people see when the meet us, it is their first impression and for those who have suffered and continue to suffer with severe acne and have the battle scars to show for their efforts, it can be a humiliating and frightening experience to meet new people. If nothing else these treatments can help restore the self worth of people who haven’t felt that they’ve put their best face forward in a very long time.
Laser treatments are quite expensive and carry with them risks of their own. Every escalating treatment or procedure carries with it a greater risk for disfigurement, infections, and other side effects as a result of the procedure. It is important to remember than when weighing the decision of whether or not to pursue an aggressive course for your acne treatment.
The right acne treatment can not only prevent the formation of new acne, some treatments are also effective at removing the scars left behind from years of severe and often painful acne. If you are having serious to severe acne rather than mild to moderate acne it is very important that you consult your doctor and see what course of treatment he recommends. You should not have to suffer from this disease in silence when it is so very easily treatable. No matter what acne treatment you ultimately decide on be sure that you have read and studied all of the facts and risks involved in your treatment and that you are at the very least making a decision based on current and accurate information and with the advise of your doctor.

What is the best acne treatment for fair skin?
I have very pale and sensitive skin. Also, i have redness that i would Love to get rid of! But i don’t want to spend a fortune! Is there an OTC acne treatment that really works without breaking the bank??
Look for face washes which contain the active ingredient benzoyl peroxide. This is the key ingredient in some of the best face washes. use a 5-10% benzoyl peroxide of mild to moderate acne and 10% for severe.
Try smashing one tablet of aspirin in a small bowl, then adding lemon juice to the mixture. Aspirin is acetesalicylic acid, chemically related to salicylic acid. Apply to the affected areas overnight. It boosts the healing process while reducing redness.
Try putting toothpaste (paste, NOT gel) on your face, cover it with a bandage, and keep it on all night. When you wash it off in the morning your acne will look better. The astringent and surfactant nature of the toothpaste will help diminish the appearance of pimples. But the toothpaste has been known to burn sensitive skin of the face, so be careful. If your face does burn, stop acne treatments and work on healing your burn.
Try using Bentonite Clay, a natural mineral powder which has been known to absorb impurities and help neutralise the skin’s oiliness, and can be found online. Mix 2 tablespoons with a dash of cold water and smooth over the face as a thick paste. Once dried gently wipe off with a flannel or sponge.

which is the acne treatment cleanser for mild acne? neutrogena or clean and clear?
ok so i want something for my face and maybe also body. for my face which is better:neutrougena complete acne therapy system or the clean and clear acne treatment? if neither, what is good for mild acne other than proactive. also nothing too expensive =)
and what about my body, what is a good body wash for my body?
Neutrogena is my favorite.., but although I have mild acne I also get dry skin around my cheeks and under my eyes and I find Neutrogena a lot better for sensitive or dry skin.., it just makes my skin look healthy where clean and clear makes it look pale and flaky (too dry).
However, I think clean and clear is stronger so I’d try Neutorogena first and then go to clean and clear if it doesn’t work.
If over the counter aids don’t help, go see a dermatologist.
