Unfortunately, acne is something that many of us are too familiar with. We may have had acne ourselves or known others that had acne; the truth is that is it very common. Acne can come from two places: our genetics or our lives. It is true that some people are predisposed to acne, and the slight mess up in diet or sleep can make the acne appear quicker and worse than on others. At the same time, having a poor diet, not sleeping well, not bathing enough, or not changing into clean clothes can cause acne.
Many people decide to go see the doctor about their acne in hopes of getting medicine to make things better. These trips to the doctor as well as prescriptions can cost a lot of money. The good news is, there are home remedies for acne that are not only as powerful as prescriptions but sometimes even better than what the doctor prescribes. We must first look at where acne comes from. The short version is: acne comes from our insides and is shown through our skin. What happens when our potential to have acne is high is our sebaceous gland is very active.
During the ages of 10-20, people go through the process of puberty, and during this time is when cases of acne are seen the most. During this time our sebaceous gland is at its most active level, meaning producing the most oil. This clearly makes our skin very oily and susceptible to acne. Knowing this, there are many home remedies for acne that can be applied to see noticeable results.
The drug Accutane has been effective for stopping acne while at the same time causing sometimes more harm than good in individuals. What Accutane does that is so powerful is that it over time stops the sebaceous gland from producing oil. This process leaves the skin dry, not allowing any oils to clog the poor.
The same process can be done at home by taking vitamin B-5, which acts in the exact same way as Accutane does. Vitamin B-5 is as successful in drying the skin to stop acne as Accutane. Vitamin B-5 will successfully turn off the sebaceous gland just like Accutane does at only a fraction of the cost with no similar side effects. Since the oils are bad and cause pores to be clogged, Hydrogen Peroxide could be used to wipe away the oil.
People should know Hydrogen Peroxide for healing cuts and wounds. What Hydrogen Peroxide does that is so powerful is it completely cleans the infected area. What we can do with this is wash the infected areas with Hydrogen Peroxide lightly in order to completely clean the area. This way, bad oils will not be able to clog the poor. I recommend you try these home remedies for acne because they are equally if not more effective than drug prescriptions recommended to you by your doctor.
