All About Skin

What is Acne?

Acne is a chronic disorder of the hair follicles and sebaceous glands. Some of the characteristics of acne include black heads, pimples, cysts, infected abscesses, and rarely scarring. Acne usually occurs during adolescence in both men and women. To be more specific, acne starts during puberty and tends to get worse for people with oily skin.

Exactly why some people get acne and some do not is not completely known. These can cause acne, or make it worse:

Hormonal fluctuation

Hyperactive sebaceous glands

Stress

Many dead skin cells staying on the skin

Bacteria in the pores

Skin irritation or scratching of any sort

Chlorine

Treatments

Many things are sold to treat acne, the most popular being benzoyl peroxide. Many of these things have not been scientifically proven to help acne. However, a mix of commercial and homemade treatments can help with acne for various reasons.So, I recommend you to get this product whish is very work to treat acne http://bit.ly/AviiRC

Killing the bacteria that grow in the blocked follicles. This can be done by ingesting antibiotic medication, or by putting antibiotics on the skin. Antibiotics act quickly and are a powerful way of temporarily getting rid of acne. When the body develops a resistance to the antibiotics, the bacteria returns stronger than before.

Removing oil on the skin can be done by taking drugs that contain Vitamin A. Accutane is the name of the most famous treatment using massive quantities of Vitamin A.

Removing dead skin cells can be done by treatment with salicylic acid. This encourages the skin to peel away the top layer of cells.
