Who Gets Acne?

Everyone has a chance of getting acne at some point in their life.  There is a difference between men and women and with one’s genetics.  Men are just naturally more prone to acquiring acne simply because of the increased amounts of testosterone.  Acne is heavily based on changes in hormone production.  These changes can cause secretions to obstruct pores creating unwanted blemishes to appear.  During adolescence, men tend to peak in testosterone levels as their bodies change with puberty.  This is a very drastic change that occurs and because of this change men develop harsher cases of acne for the most part.

Women develop acne just as men do.  However, there tends to be a slight difference with women.  Women develop acne due to hormone changes just as men do, but the difference is that women will continue to have hormonal changes and imbalances throughout life.  Since women continue to fluctuate in terms of their hormones, acne can persist past puberty and into the 20’s, 30’s, and 40’s.  Acne breakouts will most likely center around menstruation cycles and will be greater during one end of the menstruation cycle.

How Long Will I Have Acne?

Everyone is going to have a varying severity of acne as well as a different length that acne will show itself.  Around 80-85% of people will acquire acne during their teen years or puberty.  The outward signs of acne tend to diminish in the late teenage years and early twenties.  There is a good portion of people that will continue to show signs of acne into clear until their 40’s.  So, acne is not just something that haunts teenagers; acne can affect anyone at various times of life.  Though a vast majority of people will acquire acne, there are several solutions to the problem and anyone can treat their acne.

How Do You Treat Acne?

There are a variety of treatments available today to quickly treat acne.  This does not mean that if you use a product acne will disappear forever.  Of course not, but it is possible to control your acne until your body adapts to changes in hormones.  You need to know some things before you begin your task of eliminating acne.  Know what ingredients will best help your skin to clear up.  There are several ingredients that are proven to help the vast majority of people that suffer from acne.  In order to know which product and ingredients will be best you need to know what kin type you have.  Some people have very oily skin, others have sensitive skin, and even others have dry skin.

What Products Best Treat Acne?

These are a few of the possible solutions that tend to work best for the vast majority of people:

•    Keep pores clear:

o    Look for “noncomedogenic” products to use.  Noncomedogenic simply means the cream will not block pores.  Remember, obstructed pores will cause acne to appear

•    Benzoyl Peroxide:

o    Benzoyl Peroxide is great for naturally oily skin that may clog pores due oil and dead skin getting trapped inside pores.

•    Salicylic Acid:

o    Salicylic Acid is great for skin for people who want to dry up skin to clear up acne.

•    Glycolic Acid:

o    Glycolic Acid is excellent for dry skin that gets irritated easily.

The above products come in over-the-counter amounts as well as prescription amounts prescribed by a dermatologist.  Depending on your skin type you will want to have a different product and even a different concentration amount in each product.  For example, if you feel that Benzoyl Peroxide would be best for your skin type start with a low amount.  If acne persists try a more concentrated amount.  Using a dosage that is too high can actually damage skin more and cause acne to worsen.

I Have Tried Everything And Nothing Works

Some people will try over-the-counter products and still not get the results that are desired or needed.  The thing to do next would be to go to an expert.  A dermatologist will be able to tell exactly what product and concentration amount will work.  For many people over-the-counter amounts and doses are just fine, but there are some that may have overactive sebaceous oil glands that force oil and dead skin cells into pores faster and in larger amounts than an over-the-counter product can handle.  In this case higher concentrations of proven products may be necessary.  It is not recommended to try a product that has not been proven to be effective even if there are great testimonials about how well the product has worked for a small minority.  Be safe: try products that are proven to work and consult a dermatologist if the need arises.

#1 Acnexus

Acnexus is the highest rated acne solution we have seen. It is a 1-step acne solution that contains all-natural ingredients. No crazy chemical that dry or irritate your skin. Customers absolutely love the results. Most reviewers of the product mention how amazing their skin looks and feels after using it, not to mention how effective the acne solution is in clearing up the worst cases of acne. The best part is that it's incredibly easy to use (only 1-step) and very affordable for those on a tight budget.

#2 Bruunhause

Bruunhause is an intensive acne solution that was developed by a medicinal laboratory that researches & develops internal and topical acne cures. What makes Bruunhause so unique is that it uses a combination of Mother Nature's most powerful herbal acne treatments in the world's first H 3 O hydronium based solution. The end result is, in our oppinion, the most powerful topical acne treatment ever developed. Bruunhause was the only acne treatment to receive a 100/100 on acne fighting power. There are rumors that it may contain the prescription ingredient Adapalene (a topical retinoid approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 1996) which has one bad side effect of drying out the skin. We don't believe these rumors since Bruunhause works without drying out the users face one bit. We believe these rumors only surfaced because of the extreme effectiveness of Bruunhause. It is expected to be taken off the market so finding bottles in the U.S. is rare.

#3 Biodermazen

Accutane is by far the most prescribed oral acne medication. But why deal with all the side effects? Biodermazen is a powerful internal, all natural herbal acne supplement.
