Oh My Acne!

admin — Fri, 20 May 2011 21:00:56 +0000

Acne is agitating and potentially could affect ones self-esteem. I knew some girl friends that would get paranoid talking to people when they have acnes. They would say that the person their talking to seemingly was looking at their acnes all the while hence, they prefer staying at home just to wait till the acne disappears. You know what, how lucky it is to be able to recuperate from acnes in a matter of days, but there are cases that acnes last for years!

For the record, nothing can cure acne but mind me, it is treatable. So I was thinking what kind of acne treatments that work fast that will be effective and safe for skin? Well, I did some research and actually you can just purchase available products on drug stores or cosmetic stores, Otherwise for a tougher acnes situation, I would suggest you to set up an appointment with dermatologist, take note: dermatologists is different from facial center. They can be a little bit pricey but I just think it is worth every penny to invest on.

Acne All Over

Have you heard about body acne treatments? They say this is the treatment used to take care of acne growing all over the body. I haven’t seen a person with body acne but I saw one with chest acne, back acne and of course the most common, facial acne.

I just wondered why some people are prone to acne. As for me, I only have acne breakouts when I am sleepless or stressed. How about you? Have you experienced acne??

New Blog Layout

Last month, I was able to buy two domains with page rank. I updated the blog, personalized it with my writing style and re-launched them as mine. Then a few days ago, I edited the free WordPress theme I got online. After a few tweaks, I was satisfied.

Today, I visited this blog of mine because I wanted to post about the best acne treatments I found at the mall the other day but instead of making a health related post. I ended up tweaking my blog theme. I used Undertaking Theme by freewpthemes.net which is also the base of my other two new blogs.

So, how do you find my new WordPress theme? Do you like what I have done with it??

Acne Treatments

Speaking about acne causes, there are a lot of acne treatments available in the market today depending on the severity. Some acne treatments can be bought over the counter and some needs a doctor’s prescription. The important thing is, always consult a doctor before applying anything on your face or body.

Some people are tolerant but some are not especially with over the counter medicines. But just to avoid from accidents, consulting a doctor is the best thing to do!

Theory on Acne Causes

I was reading an article about acne and I learned that there are no known reasons why they develop in humans. Science only has theories on acne. They say 80% of the people experience acne at some point in their lives.

Here are the several theories on acne that I have learned:

Acne starts between ages eleven and thirteen – I think this is related to changing hormones.
Pressure and rubbing from tight garments – I think wearing tight clothes irritates the skin thus causing acne.
Acne is sometimes genetically passed on – If you have a lineage of family members with acne, probably your children will do too.
Factors linked to women – Changing hormones in women can also cause acne.
Pregnancy and hormones – Changes in a woman’s body especially the increase of some hormones can cause acne.
Menopause and hormones
Stress – I think this is the number one cause for me. Whenever I am stressed, acne breaks out!
