Preventing Acne - 5 Tips
What is Acne - It is a condition in which the skin is inflamed.
It occurs because of bacteria that enters into the pores of the
skin and breeds. It can happen quickly. But, why it happens is
what is important here. There are many causes of acne, but the
reaction the body has is the same. Understanding what happens to
the body will help in the prevention of additional acne later
on.
How it happens - The body normally secretes oil through the
skin. This helps to keep the skin healthy. But, sometimes, there
are high levels of oils being secreted. On the other side are
the pores. The pores can become clogged, so to speak, with dead
cells and the oils. The combination makes for a warm, wet
location for bacteria to get into and to breed quickly. All of
this leads to painful, unpleasant pimples on the skin.
Here are some tips to help you with the prevention of acne:
1. The most important thing to do is to keep your face clean.
Your face is normally going to be oily, to an extent. But,
you'll want to keep it as clean as possible nonetheless. Washing
it with a good, quality soap is essential to keeping the excess
oils off and the bacteria away.
2. Consider your needs for exfoliating. Remember those dead
cells we mentioned? They too can get in there and help to cause
acne.
So, pick up an exfoliating cream or cloth and wash your
face with it. It will help to remove dead skin cells from the
face and therefore keep the zits away.
3. Seek out the help of a dermatologist. If you are facing
continuous problems with severe acne or are otherwise concerned
about your skin, you should speak to your doctor. They can
uncover several things. First, they may find that there is a
need to use prescription medication to slow down the production
of oils within the body. They can also prescribe antibiotics to
help rid the skin of these infections which are what acne really
is.
4. Make sure that you are informed. If you educate yourself
about what acne really is and why it happens, you can help to
prevent it. It is also important to realize that not all acne
can be treated or cured and that some of it is inherited.
5. Lastly, eating a well balanced diet and getting regular
amounts of exercise really can make a large difference.
