Acne Treatments? Why do They Fail?

By Marcel Stephenson

The truth is that acne treatments work differently for everybody. You wouldn't be reading this article if there was one miracle treatment that worked everyone.

It is important to get the right treatment once acne appears, but unfortunately most people just opt for any acne treatment, without making sure that it will be compatible with their specific skin type. Besides, you will waste a lot of time and money in the process by buying the wrong products. Since our genetics and body chemistry differ it can be quite difficult to find the solution that will work for us.

This is even evident in members of the same family where some of them will get mild outbreaks, while others may experience quite the opposite and really suffer due to their reactions to acne.

When our bodies can't get rid of some toxins in our systems through normal bodily functions, it can cause acne. Also, if our organs are not functioning properly, these toxins will remain in our systems, and eventually our bodies will try to get rid of these through our skin pores.

When our bodies have a hormonal balance, it can create an oily sweat. This sweat is full of bacteria that our bodies are trying to get rid of. Pimples will come popping out when this oily mixture blends with dead skin cells which clogs the pores of the skin.

Acne will erupt with this mixture of sweat and acne clogs the pores. As you can see, both these conditions start on the inside. A lot of acne sufferers focus on treating their acne on the outside only, and forgets about the internal part. This is where it goes wrong.

If you really want to get rid of your acne, you have to start the fight from the inside. Don't use only external treatments and medication. - 16650
