All About Acne

This article will help with your basic knowledge of what causes acne as well as what to do with it. Keep in mind that all ages get acne, not just teenagers and young adults. The acne anti aging skincare products offered on our web site will help those with acne and aging issues, as well.

Acne is caused by the irritation of dead skin cells inside the hair follicles. It is also caused by genetics and is aggravated by hormonal fluctuations, stress, and chemical ingredients in some skincare products. Dead skin cells then stick to the sebum (oil) that is produced and attracts bacteria into the hair follicles causing an infection. Your body then produces a pimple to fight off that infection. Our acne products have been developed to remove the dead skin cells before infection begins and starts a new pimple. Thus, it is imperative that you use your product daily and as directed. It is expected that your skin will become dry and flaky. This is part of the process of exfoliating the dead skin cells in order to expose new skin and minimize the size of your pores.

Once minimized there is less chance of a pore being clogged with oil. Your skin will then begin its healing process. With daily use, you will be amazed at how clear your skin will become. When your skin has cleared, it is still important to use the products on a daily basis in order to prevent future breakouts.

It takes 3-4 months for pimples to form, and just as long for them to clear up. Scarring typically takes twice as long as pimples to clear. So be patient. The more you flake and peel, the lighter your scars and blemishes will become, but it will take time.
