Jenna asked:


I have been struggling for years with tough acne that are sometimes the big red inflamed ones, which hurt, and the other small red ones on my forehead, chin, cheeks and nose. I have gone to the Dermotologist many times and have been on many pills, and topical medicines that have not been helpful to me. I cannot be on antibiotics because I have asthma, and it will trigger it. Help, I am fed up with my acne!

Half of the total female population of the world & a quarter of the male population suffer from acne. Among the many therapeutic medicines the best way to solve this problem is to use acne skin cleansers. The reason of this skin problem is mainly the increase of a hormone called testosterone, which causes the sebaceous glands in your skin to release more oil. Teenagers are the most vulnerable to this problem, but other age groups are not spared. So a good acne remedy is all about proper diet and good medicines & cosmetics.

Skin Cleansers:What to Choose & What Not

There are thousands of products posing as acne remedy. But it’s up to you to understand the nature of your skin and choose the right type of skin cleanser. The skin pores in your face are blocked with bacteria, so it is mandatory to remove these from your skin to achieve a complete acne remedy.

- Benzoyl Peroxide often destroys the bacteria that cause acne. You have to mix 2.5% of this solution for using on your skin with a cream.

- Salicyclic Acid often helps to clear blocked pores of your skin, forcing a free flow of body oils.

- Alpha Hydroxyl can be a good option for your acne affected skin. Citric acid from lemon and lactic acid from milk are also a good acne remedy.

- Tea tree oil is a natural remedy for your acne affected skin.

- Don’t use harsh soaps or shampoos to clear acne affected areas. Always use a soft linen to wipe your skin.

Some Essential Tips for Acne Prevention

- Avoid harsh skin cleansers.

- Use only warm water for your skin to remove make up, and soft linen for acne affected areas.

- Protect your skin from direct sunlight.

- Never itch, prick, pop or pinch zits. This may create permanent scars on your skin.

- Only use oil-free skin cleansers for your skin.

- Consult a dermatologist for your skin problems and try to maintain a proper diet.

Good Care = Acne Free Skin.

Acne remedy is all about good care of your skin and choosing the right type of acne skin cleansers. Patience is another keyword for treating this skin disease. The overuse of acne products can irritate your skin and increase its vulnerability. After your acne is healed your doctor may prescribe acne scar removal remedies for you. There are surgical and non-surgical ways to do this, and some of the surgical methods are quite costly and painful. It is much better to maintain a healthy skin care regime and avoid acne altogether than to have to take recourse to acne medicine and other kinds of acne solution.

What about those cases of acne that are too severe for over-the-counter acne medicine? Washing with a good soap is not the answer for those cases. For people in that situation, there is a variety of oral acne medicine.

The only problem is that you can’t just walk into a store and buy the stuff. You have to go to a doctor and get a prescription. But for those who have moderate to severe cases of acne, oral acne medication might be the thing to clear up your problem. The most recent forms of acne medication are the following:

Oral Antibiotic Acne Medication. This type of medication should always be mediated by consulting a physician. Various acne medication antibiotics that may be taken by mouth are supported by researches. Assorted antibiotics that act as acne medication are intended for moderate, severe to persistent types of acne. It is very important that a doctor is asked first on which antibiotics for acne medication is right for you.

Cortiscosteroids. Very severe acne may be prescribed with this acne medication antibiotic. This potent antibiotic is usually taken in a short span of time only. They have metabolic effects that make them inappropriate for long-term use.

Oral Tetracycline. This antibiotic is one of the most popular oral acne medications. Moderate to severe acne may be treated with an initial dose of 500 to 1000 mg per day in a decreasing dosage as skin condition improvement is noted. This antibiotic is not for the pregnant women since it can cause skeletal defects to fetus. Children with age of under 8 years are also not advised to be given this medication.

Oral Minocycline and Doxycycline. These acne medications in the form of antibiotics are only derived from tetracycline. Research evidences tell that these acne medications are more effective than tetracycline. Doxycycline is reported to induce sunlight sensitivity. Both are advised not to be taken by pregnant women.

Oral Erythromycin. This antibiotic that serve as an acne medication may be taken as an alternative to tetracycline since it is safer for pregnant women and young children.

Isotretinoin. This acne medication antibiotic is said to revolutionize acne treatment due to its potent effect in dealing with severe and treatment-resistant acne. Reports has it that isotretinoin is very effective in treating all forms of acne. But it should be noted that many side affects are also attributed to isotretinoin. This includes severe birth defects to a fetus, dryness of the skin and mucous membranes. Therefore, pregnant women, breastfeeding women or those who are planning to become pregnant must not take isotretinoin as a form of acne medication.
