Some Healthy Ways to Fight Acne


Acne is a major concern for most of the teenagers. It not only manifests physically but also leaves a deep emotional impact. Acne Vulgaris occurs when the pores of the skin become clogged with sebum, bacteria and dead cells. This usually occurs in adolescents and young adults as the hormonal changes in the body trigger the sebaceous glands to produce more sebum. Speaking of emotional issues, the self- image is at risk in most of the cases. The person may feel shameful about the acne and start feeling bad about their own self and the way they look. Teenagers should understand their vulnerability and fight acne and the emotional issues associated with it in a healthy manner. Parents should also be supportive and make their teenager feel good about what he or she is.

Here are some of the healthy ways of fighting acne. Cleanliness is the first and foremost thing one with acne has to practice. Washing the hands and face five to eight times a day with mild soap will reduce bacteria on the skin surface and remove excess oil and dead cells from the skin. This will help prevent acne to a great extent. It is also essential to keep your hands and nails away from your face. Never try to squeeze acne or pull it out with your nails. It will not only worsen the acne but also leave a permanent mark. The skin also needs good nourishment to stay healthy. Eating good food, cutting out the grease from food and drinking plenty of water will help maintain a beautiful skin. Skin is nourished during sleep. Therefore good rest is necessary to maintain a healthy skin. Regular physical exercises are also essential for healthy skin as it improves blood circulation thus bringing more oxygen to the skin. Practicing relaxation techniques like meditation and yoga also helps in most cases with acne. It is important to practice the above tips everyday.

There are so many proven treatment options for acne both topical and systemic. Talking to someone with the same problem will help deal with the emotional issues to a great extent. Mutual counseling and exchange of tips help you feel good. Also, it should not be forgotten that acne is something that will vanish with time and age. However, if the person is severely depressed, it is advisable to seek professional help immediately before you do more harm to your self image. Building a positive self image and self concept is the main goal of psychological counseling when dealing with acne. The counselor will work with you and help you help yourself.

However taking good personal care and appropriate treatment would prevent damage to your physical and emotional self.
