How do I Get Rid of Acne
By Carlos Smith on October 13, 2009
“How do I get rid of acne, without surgery?” This was a question I always wanted answered when I suffered with acne, and I’m going to hopefully answer it for you right in the article! Acne is, by far, the biggest skin complaint amongst teenagers, and adults as well. It is also solely responsible for the most visits to the doctor, with a skin related problem. Although the is no cure for acne, that doesn’t mean you can’t treat it and get rid of your pimples!
Before I answer your question “how do I get rid of acne”, you need to learn about why acne even occurs in the first place. Unlike popular belief, acne isn’t caused due to poor hygiene, it is infact due to a hormonal imbalance in your body. It’s no coincidence why 90% of teens get acne at some stage, as when your a teen, your body goes through puberty, when you have this hormonal imbalance.
This hormonal imbalance results in your body producing an excess amount of sebum. This then begins to clog up the pores in your skin, and bacteria begins to linger around your skin, resulting in an outbreak of acne. Although there is no way past puberty, you still can get rid of acne, if you know how to unclog these blocked pores, and I’m about to show you how.
If your asking “how do I get rid of acne” then you must realise that picking your pimples is only going to make things worse. In the short term, manipulating your pimples will only increase the inflammation and redness, makin them look bigger and uglier. In the long term, you could be left with horrible scarring, which is much harder to get rid of.
Drinking water can be very beneficial to clearing your pores and getting your skin back. Often when you’re suffering from acne, the skin becomes very dry and flakey, which is not what you want to happen. Drinking lots of water will keep your skin moist and hydrated, lessening skin irritation.
The recommended amount of water to drink, per day, is 8 glasses. Water doesn’t only help to moisten the skin, but it can also flush away nasty acne causing toxins in your body. In turn, water has brilliant skin rejuvenation properties, allowing for quicker and healthier skin cell growth.
If you’re asking the question “how do I get rid of acne naturally” then you’ll want to know about one of the most effective natural acne cures out there, lemon juice. A very powerful remedy, lemon juice works wonders for your skin. Simply by drinking several glasses per day, you’ll be providing your skin with essential vitamins and minerals that can really help improve the health of the skin.
You can also apply lemon juice to your face. It will burn away the top layer of skin, unclogging all the blocked pores and shifting dead skin cells much quicker.
