Choosing the Best Acne Treatment
In the internet age where information is never
too far away we are often left nonplussed by the massive
truckloads of information that even a small word like acne
can throw upon us. A Google search with keyword as ‘acne’
throws up more than 38 million results. And through this
massive jungle of information how do you decide what is
right and the best for you? Well, as far as Acne goes, we
have a few suggestions here which we hope you’ll find
extremely helpful in choosing the best acne treatment for
yourself or your loved ones.
Acne treatments can be natural as well as chemical. While the
chemical techniques may have some lopsides, they also work
faster than the herbal ones. The herbal or natural acne
treatments while may be lengthier, are not known to cause any
kind of side effects. The only thing remains to be understood
is that both the natural as well as chemical processes use the
same principle technique of digging out bacteria, dirt and dead
skin and replacing it with new skin.
Some of the herbal based products available in the market are
Zenmed’s Derma Cleanse and Clear Pores. While the former is
based on ancient Chinese medicine and science, the latter one
is based on knowledge of botany.
One of the best selling and celebrity endorsed chemical based
acne treatment formula is Proactiv Acne Treatment formula. It
is a Benzoyl peroxide based formula which kills the acne
causing bacteria immediately and the exfoliating agent
immediately digs out the dead skin thereby making room for
fresh and new skin to appear.
Some of the other techniques in the market are available only
through the practicing professionals and dermatologists. These
techniques though I must warn you here itself, are extremely
costly as compared to the products discussed above. But then
for the beauty conscious no price is too high.
1. Punch Technique - This technique is useful for those who
have had severe acne and the marks are visible even deep down
the skin. This method involves skin incision and graftin and
can cost anywhere in the range of $50 per punch.
2. Dermabrasion is a technique in which sandpaper was used
until recently to remove the acne and marks. The sandpaper has
now been replaced with a revolving diamond studded wheel. Every
sitting can cost you anywhere around $750.
3. Laser Resurfacing - It is a very popular technique of acne
treatment amongst the celebrities because the control is far
better. The laser beam can precisely target the affected are
and remove the scar marks from even layers under the skin. One
single treatment can leave you lighter by nearly $3000.
What acne treatment program you choose is at your discretion
and your choice should be driven by the intensity of acne on
your skin and the amount of cash you have in the
bank.
