Is Acne Treatment Real Because It Never Works!
Acne is a menace. However, it’s not something that cannot be tackled. There are loads of acne products around. We can classify acne products into 3 broad categories –

* Preventive or general acne products

* Over-the-counter, specialised acne products

* On-prescription acne products.

The general acne products are the ones that are used as acne-prevention measure. These include cleansers, make-up removers and similar products that help prevent acne. In the real sense, these acne products are just those that should anyway be part of your daily routine. However, some of these are more oriented to act like an acne product. These acne products act against the causes of acne e.g. limiting the production of sebum/oil and preventing clogging of skin pores. Basically, these acne products prevent the oil from getting trapped in pores and hence hamper the growth of bacteria that lead to acne. The general acne products also include exfoliation products like skin peels. These work towards removing dead skin cells, hence reducing the possibility of pore-clogging and bacteria development.

Then there are specialised acne products that are available over-the-counter i.e. without the need of a prescription. These include products

like vanishing creams which extract the extra oil from the skin. Most of these acne products are based on benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid, both of which are the enemies of bacteria (and hence acne). You should start with a product that has lower concentration of benzoyl peroxide (e.g. 5%) and see how your skin responds to it. Alpha-hydroxy-acid based moisturizers are also popular as acne products. You might have to try a few, before you zero-in on the acne product that is effective for you. If nothing seems to work, you should contact a dermatologist.

On-prescription acne products are the ones that are prescribed by a dermatologist. This can include ointments that can be applied on the affected area or oral antibiotics or just any topical treatment. Dermatologist could also suggest a minor surgical procedure to remove the contents of pustules. However, never try to squeeze or do this by yourself, it can lead to permanent damage of your skin. Your doctor could also prescribe a hormone-based treatment (since hormonal changes are also known to cause acne). Such acne products are known to be very effective in some cases.
So, with all those acne products, tackling acne is not that difficult.
