How to Take Care Of Your Body and Get Rid Of Old Acne Scars
Have you been having acne break outs which leave behind many scars that you cannot stand? Well it is time you started trying to fade away all those ugly scars so you can regain your smooth skin tone! The good news is that there is a lot you can do to treat acne scars and in this article I am going to share with you some of these tips and hope that you will use them and be happy with the results you get.
There is a lot of hype on the internet and TV these days about skin care products. The problem with most people is using lots of commercially over hyped brands thinking that they will have a synergistic effect and solve their scar problem quickly. You need to know that the most basic and the simplest products are usually the best. Today, it's very easy to get a perfect skin if you know what to use on your skin and how to take care of your body.
Avoid scrubs, exfoliating sponge or anything that is rough. Never use them on your face. It will only remove the upper epidermal layer and will make you produce more oil that leads to more breakout and irritation. Avoid dermatological procedures that only remove superficial skin layer such as dermabrasion and fractional lasers.
The best way to deal with the entire skin layer is not via thermal heat but rather, chemical heat. That is why chemical peeling [like obagi] are preferred and superior to any mechanical procedures. The problem however is the higher price.
I would recommend visiting a derma clinic and inquiring with any of the following:
1. Glycolic Peels [30% up] [ about 150 usd per session ]
2. TCA Peels [20% up] [ about 200 usd per session ]
3. Obagi Blue Peel [ about 400 USD per session ]
Obagi however is overhyped, its only TCA [30%] plus a blue dye and procaine [anesthesia] so its less painful. If you are on a tight budget, I recommend checking out some natural remedies for treating your acne scars since they are always the cheaper alternative.
Tips to Help You Clear Up Your Skin and Get Rid Of Old Acne Scars
Wash your face with tea tree oil soap and Luke warm water. Once you are done washing your face softly pat dry. Tea tree oil soap is natural and cleans better than other soaps because it doesn't dry out your skin. If you use soap that dries out your skin, your skin will produce more oil and lead to blocked pores and more acne.
Use Clean and Clear Persa-Gel 10 to treat your acne. Put a light coat around the infected area. It's best to wash your face and put this on just before you go to sleep. That way it gets absorbed into the skin and works well while you get your 8 hrs of sleep. Persa-Gel 10 contains 10% Benzoyl Peroxide so stay out of the sunlight when you have it on. It may cause a slight burn if you are not careful.
It should get rid of most acne within 3 days from the time you start treating it. However, that depends on how bad and what type of acne you have. Drink more fresh fruits and vegetables. Cut out as much diary as possible (Diary is full of hormones so try and avoid it) and leave the junk food alone. Crack the window open in your room to allow fresh air to circulate. The sunlight is great for acne but don't go under direct sunlight with this medicine.
