One of my co-employee is suffering from too much embarrassment because of his acne. He has face, back and chest acne! Whew i’m thankful i didn’t experience that kind of acne problem. His problem started a long time ago and he said he’s already sick and tired of trying different products to solve his problem. Besides he’s financially drained as well because of the expensive treatments he tried. Well, i feel sad for him but i don’t know how to help him either. Anyway, i just share his story here, if anyone of you have something to recommend kindly leave your comment or suggestion. Thanks!

I’m fortunate that i’m one of those blessed with good skin, i didn’t reach the point point wherein i have to look for acne treatment. Well, that’s because even at  my age i already did everything to prevent having acne.

Acne prevention often becomes essential during our teenage years. It can cause great distress and embarrassment at an age when young people are very concerned about how they look. Increased hormonal activity is the root cause of acne occurrence. This in turn causes excess oil production in the skin’s sebaceous glands. It is a sad fact that the areas most affected by acne are those that are almost constantly visible with today’s youthful fashion trends. Most acne prevention and control compounds contain specific compounds to address the problem.

Avoiding fat-laden junk foods like cheeseburgers is definitely a step in the right direction for other health-related reasons. However, it will do little by ways of acne prevention. Skin hygiene is important, and one can prevent acne to a certain extent by increased and regular cleansing. However, one tends to go overboard and resort to using extreme measures like a face wash of strong toothpaste and other harsh compounds. This will only aggravate the problem by encouraging increased compensatory oil production in the skin.
