Know The Source Of Your Skin Problems
It is very important to understand the nature and causes of acne. You will be unable to find the correct acne skin care product if you do not know what causes your skin problems. Many factors may cause acne including bacteria, hormones, blocked bores, follicle fallout, and many others. Simple cases such as blocked pores can be solved with just cleansers.In the majority of cases, cleaning the pores with an over-the-counter skin cleanser and a mild soap will make a huge difference in a very short period. But, if your skin is dry and sensitive, you should be extra careful with soap and other over-the-counter products. Always read the labels carefully and make sure that the product is free of alcohol and other antiseptics. Make sure you use only very gentle products with low pH so they do not cause further drying of your skin.
However, bacterial infections are much more difficult to remove. In case your acne is caused by bacteria, you will need much stronger acne skin care products. Be aware that the bacteria on your skin can spread really fast and can bring about some unsightly-looking inflammation.
You will probably have to use stronger products and antibiotics to get rid of inflammation. It is also strongly recommended that in more serious cases you consult your dermatologist. With more severe acne outbreaks you should avoid self-medication as you might cause more harm than good
