Friday, December 25th, 2009

Pros

People have used this particular Clearasil product (the Ultra Acne Treatment) because it works on all zit types. For instance, it actually helps clear whiteheads, and even some blackheads and cystic acne.

Results for people have been noticed in as little time as two days. “Good stuff in my book!” That is the remark of one very pleased consumer. It works the best probably on people with oily skin.

It works great considering it is an over the counter drug. It works well for even inflammatory stages of acne that are very hard to eliminate.

Furthermore, it does not take this product very long to dry after use. This makes applying it with makeup much easier.

Cons

This product is a bit harsh than others, and it can burn the skin of some people. It could dry out the skin. Furthermore, it might take a little bit more of this solution than another to clear up skin pimples and blemishes.

Furthermore, although it works in some more severe instances it may not work for “full blown” acne that has spread all over your face or body. Overall, though consumer satisfaction indicates this product does more good than bad.

Tips

The best way to find out if Clearasil Ultra is the right acne treatment for you is to seek some practical advice. You should also find out what your skin type is before using it. Your dermatologist as well as written advice can assist you with this.

If you have the right skin type it will probably work very well for you. However, you should be careful if you have more sensitive skin.

Cystic Acne: a More Serious Look Into this Condition

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Cystic acne is not a deadly disease, but it is a very serious case of acne that can cause ones self esteem to plummet greatly. Various forms of treatment are available to sufferers of this condition.

Description

Cystic acne is characterized by the mass covering of the face. Patches of scars and blemishes might also occur on other areas of the body. They appear as breakouts very similar to a rash or hives. They sometimes can form in clusters and in themselves are often quite large.

Causes

Often it is a result of overused oil glands. Excess dead skin cells may also accumulate within the pores of your skin. Furthermore, a large mass of propionibacteria acnes attacks the skin. (This bacteria is one that is most blamed for pimples and scars characteristic of most skin diseases like this one.)

Effects

The breakouts experienced by people suffering severe skin conditions like this one often destroy healthy skin tissue. This is a main reason that scars may occur. However, the effects are far beyond the physical.

People who experience uncontrollable appearances of skin blemishes often feel extremely embarrassed. They may be ashamed sometimes to even go out in public. They may not even want to look at themselves in the mirror in the morning.

Treatment Info

If you want to find out how you can treat cystic acne, consult your doctor. Oftentimes strong prescription medications are applies over a period of time. In the most extreme cases, surgery may be used to remove the blemishes, scars, and pimples.

While seeking medical treatment for this problem, you may want to change your diet. You can begin by drastically reducing intake of salty or fatty foods such as chips, French fries, or fried chicken. Also, reduce intake of fats in general, and stop eating so much sugary candy and chocolate.

Furthermore, learn better methods of caring your skin. All this will help improve your confidence as you attempt to have this condition corrected.
