One of the most common skin disorders that most people are so busy tussling with is acne. This skin disorder includes persistent pimples, nodules, inflamed papules, cysts, blackheads, and whiteheads. They usually develop on the face but may sometimes occur on the neck, shoulders, upper arms, chest, and back.

How can you reduce unwanted acne development?

The occurrence of acne is the effect of clogged skin pores. These tiny holes in the skin are connected to the oil glands underneath the skin. When the pores are clogged with sebum, hair follicles, epidermis cells, and bacteria, the oils naturally produced in the skin have no way to escape, hence, developing into swollen bumps on the skin otherwise known as acne.

One of the best ways to reduce the development of acne is to manage your skincare regimens. If your skin is prone to acne, make sure to use an oil-free moisturizer. You should also use sunscreen with the right SPF every morning, especially when you are going out. Always protect your skin from the harsh rays of the sun. Also, use non-comedogenic and fragrance-free skincare products to prevent triggering the development of acne.

In consonance with this, try to avoid foods that may trigger the outburst of acne. The contents of the food you ingest are absorbed by your body and are manifested on your skin. Eating oily and sugary food can cause a heap on your oil glands, hence, inducing the growth of acne.

Here are some foods that you have to avoid if you are prone to having acne:

  • Dairy Foods: Dairy contains growth hormones that increase the risk of acne development.
  • Gluten: Studies show that some people have difficulty digesting gluten which in turn leads to poor gut functioning. When this happens, toxins leak into our blood supply and the vital nutrients from the food are not absorbed by the body. This leaves our immune system compromised while allowing foreign invaders like acne to control.
  • Sugar: Do not be blinded by the sweetness of sugar. It is probably the most common contributor to the development of not just acne but other health disorders. Sugar plays an important role in controlling the body’s insulin level. Spiking insulin levels can cause the rapid growth of pimple-inducing hormones like testosterone and androgens.
  • Genetically Modified Soy: Too much soy intake can stimulate the increase of hormone levels. Thus, it is best to always check the label when buying soy milk or tofu to ensure that they are GMO-free.

While it is best to avoid the aforementioned food, there are also food groups that are good for combatting acne. If you are into dairy foods, you may try alternatives such as coconut or almond milk. When you like eating fried foods, it is better to use olive oil than regular cooking oil.

Another healthy food group is alkaline foods which include green leafies, lemon water, turmeric, coconut oil, avocado, nuts, and seeds. You should also try preventing yourself from eating too much fast food and stick to more natural whole foods. Lastly, choose organic or fresh fruits and vegetables over foods that are processed with chemical preservatives.

What makeup is best for covering acne?

One of the common triggers for acne in most women is the makeup they use. Most career women wear makeup for ten to twelve hours or even more. Some makeup formulas are light to the skin while others may cause over-clogging of skin pores. These cosmetic products cause pore plugs in the hair follicle that traps excess oil in the skin.

Choosing the right makeup that works well with your skin can be challenging. It is best to consult your trusted cosmetic doctors to know what you should look for in your makeup labels. Cosmetic doctors underwent extensive training and have gained vast experiences to understand the different and unique needs of each of their patients. This helps them provide a skincare guideline that helps patients indulge in healthy skin.

It is important to look for dermatologically approved mineral-based makeups that are gentle to the skin. Mineral-based makeups allow the skin to breathe while preventing the clogging of pores. If your skin is sensitive and prone to acne, it helps to maintain your skin with prescribed skincare products.

Laser Treatment for Acne in Brighton

Acne is one of the most difficult to comprehend skin disorders as there is no particular treatment that can be used for all patients. A comprehensive skin test and diagnosis must be done to ensure that the best treatment will be administered to each person.

Acne treatment Brighton varies from one patient to another, and the most common techniques include chemical peels, subcision, TCA CROSS, and microdermabrasion.

One of the best techniques to combat acne outbursts and acne scarring is laser treatment. Laser acne removal is a skin treatment technique that uses pulsated light that targets the infected area without damaging the surrounding skin. This method also removes old or dead skin cells from the skin caused by acne scarring.

Laser treatment also combats blackheads and whiteheads by targetting their roots to ensure that they do not come and go. This technique involves light therapy that reduces the severity of the symptoms of acne. After a laser acne removal treatment, your skin will feel smooth, soft, and blemish-free.

Although laser treatment is an excellent acne removal option, it can be more effective when paired with other skincare procedures such as microneedling and facial peels. However, this may result in minimal downtimes such as itching, reddening of the skin, soring, and slight swelling but they last for just a few hours from the procedures.

SKIN CLUB Cosmetic Doctors will work with you to ensure that the perfect treatment combination or treatment plan is recommended to suit your skincare needs. Our clinical tests and acne removal techniques are backed by science and experience.

Your cosmetic doctor may also recommend multiple sessions depending on the severity of your acne. Each session may take about fifteen to thirty minutes depending on the extent of the affected area as well as the severity of the acne condition. After the treatment, you will be given a list of Do’s and DON’Ts to ensure the effectiveness and reliability of the treatment.
