Acne problem and solutions.

In skin care industry acne has become the most common skin problem for many people.

The skin type of every individual is different, even if they do fall into a general category – oily, dry, combination or sensitive. Likewise, the issues faced by each individual with regards to his or her skin would be just as different.

What can i do to reduce acne scarring?

First, stop extracting pustules yourself! Second, schedule deep cleansing facial and as soon as you get your breakouts under control, start series of microdermabrasion treatments. Microdermabrasion is a mix of gentle abrasion and suction, helps to remove dead skin cells, even out skin tone and stimulate blood circulation. Remember there’s no magic wand that will erase your scarring in one day, be patient, stick to your plan and after 3-4 treatments you’ll see amazing results.

I have a pimple, should i try to extract it myself?

Please don’t! Let your aesthetician do the job. Many people do not extract pustule (pimple) completely causing infection to spread, or extract it over and over again causing post inflammatory hyperpigmentation and scarring. So save yourself some time and future headache and schedule 30 minutes cleansing facial.

Does tanning really clear up acne?

Unfortunately no, it might give you false satisfaction by making your skin look little more even toned but it will not prevent or cure any existing break outs, plus too much tanning can cause sun damage, hyperpigmentation, skin thickening and even skin cancer. So always limit your sun exposure and reapply your sun block frequently if you spending more then 30 minutes on the sun.
