Acne Cure With a Pill, What Else Is Working Today?
One of the most frustrating and embarrassing skin conditions
faced by nearly every teen, and many adults, is Acne. This
condition is caused by pores in the skin becoming clogged, and
the skin's natural oils becoming trapped. The pores usually clog
up due to skin cells shedding too quickly, and then blocking the
oils in the skin from draining properly. Then bacteria trapped
in the skin begins to grow, and whiteheads, blackheads or other
lesions form.
There are quite different levels of severity of acne, the most
common being Acne Vulgaris, which is simple pimples, whiteheads,
and blackheads. It is a common form of teen acne, and is usually
easy to treat.
A more common variety of adult acne is Acne Rosacea, which can
cause blood vessels to burst under the skin, as well as
whiteheads, but is recognizable by a lack of blackheads.
Treatment for this adult form is quite different than treatment
for teen acne, so a doctor should be consulted.
Much more severe is Acne Conglobata, which is rare, but usually
strikes males under 30. Symptoms include large lesions, and
extensive blackheads. It can cause permanent skin damage
including infections and scarring, to say nothing of the
psychological damage. It needs to be treated by a
doctor.
However it happens, acne can be embarrassing and awkward, to say
nothing of the potential for scars and permanent damage. So what
to do?
There are several commercially available Acne medications
available by prescription. Some of these include Adapalene,
Benzol Peroxide, and Isotretinoin treatments like Accutane.
While Benzol Peroxide is available through many over the counter
treatments like Oxy Clear, generally Isotretinoin treatments are
considered the most effective.
Accutane, the most popular of these Acne solutions, is a pill
taken for 15 to 20 weeks. It is generally prescribed for severe
cases of Acne that do not respond to other treatments. Because
of the strong likelihood of severe deformities in children born
to women taking Accutane while pregnant, many women are asked to
take birth control by their doctors when taking this medication.
Other side effects may include dry cracked lips and skin, and
muscle and joint pain. Don't want to risk or endure the side
effects, then you may want to consider a natural health remedy
discussed in part 2 of this topic.
