FACT: Nearly 85% of young people develop acne. You have a
choice, you can sit back and blame it on genetics, your age, or you can do
something about it and try prevention.
Certain
factors can cause skin flare ups:
• Wouldn't
you know it that hormones are the main culprit - unfortunately you can't avoid
this one but you can try and minimize the effects
• Friction
caused by leaning on or rubbing the skin - a reason why flare ups happen during
exams - stressful times
• Pressure
from bike helmets, backpacks, tight collars
•
Environmental irritations - pollution & high humidity when oil & sweat
are dual culprits
• Of course
squeezing & picking - what starts off as miniscule ends up resembling a
traffic light or an alien. Sounds familiar? Every time you do that you leave
blemishes & scars & the healing process has to start again from square
one
• Hard
scrubbing of the skin - your skin is oily, not dirty - don't do damage &
cause scarring
• Sporty
guys & girls tend to get lots of whiteheads around the hairline because of
the oil & excess sweat build-up so cleanse ASAP after all sports, including
swimming to get rid of the chlorine
• Going to
bed without cleansing off all make-up - Oh that is such a no no
• Wrong
cosmetics and foundations that are too thick - don't hide - get your canvas
clean & smooth & you will be amazed
• Alcohol,
smoking, poor diet all affect the skin in a negative way
GOALS
To create a
'ZIT FREE ZONE'. To heal existing lesions, reduce the chances of new lesions
forming, help prevent scarring, repair residual scarring. To achieve a clear,
smooth, glowing skin without blemishes, pigmentation and scars. Remember scars
can remain with you for life and are a constant reminder.
