HOW TO TREAT YOUR ACNEBeauty face of the young beautiful woman with flower

You want to put your best face forward- and with acne that can be a bit of a challenge. When the acne begins to pose a challenge on your appearance, you might wonder how to treat acne- and fast. These simple acne treatment methods listed below are undoubtedly the best acne treatments on the market and are proven to help reduce- if not completely remove- acne marks.

 1.  Start off Simple: The 3 Must-Haves to Clear Skin

While these first few steps may seem outright simple, they are simply the best acne treatments you can do without having to purchase anything. First and foremost, it is important to keep your hands off your face, as this can leave a layer of dirt and oil on your face which blocks pores. Wash your face with mild soap every morning and night to remove excess grime. You can find a lot of great face washes on eBay for cheap. Lastly, try to remove all stress factors from your life. Stress is one of the biggest creators of acne, and living a stress-free life can equal an acne-free life.

2. Salicylic Acid and Benzoyl Peroxide

A great duo includes the efforts of Salicylic Acid and Benzoyl Peroxide. As for Salicylic Acid, it’s agents work to remove the outermost layer of the skin, giving skin a better chance at ‘breathing’ by removing dirt, oil, and other blockages. You should wash your face with Salicylic Acid or use special cleansing pads made for the face. After that is said and done, use Benzoyl Peroxide on severe acne areas. The peroxide will work by destroying bacteria causing inflammation and breakouts.

 3.  Assess Potential Breakout Factors

While the majority of acne problems are skin-related, some acne is caused by the use of improper supplies, such as makeup. If you are using makeup or other products on your face that does not agree with your skin, you need to remove of this product completely. If you are wondering whether or not your makeup, face wash, lotion, or other commonly used product is causing your breakout, switch products or end use of product immediately. Give it a few weeks and if you notice a difference in your skin, the product was likely the problem. You may need oil-free or non-comedogenic products depending on your skin type.

 4.  Isotretinoin

Also referred to as ‘Accutane’ and other names, Isotretinoin is an oral medication used to prevent acne breakouts. Interestingly enough, researchers have yet to discover the actual reason for Isotretinoin’s positive effects, but most users find they are completely free from acne or have significantly less acne in the four to five months following initial dosage.

 5. Laser Treatment

Many use laser treatment as the last resort, but it is probably the best acne treatment you can get. With laser treatment, lasers produce heat underneath the skin to destroy acne where it begins- the glands, leaving the top layer of the skin unharmed. A majority of those who receive laser treatment note their acne is reduced by more than half by the end of their second treatment. However, this doesn’t mean that you’re free from any type of pain, discomfort, redness and swelling in the few days following treatment.
