Cosmetic Facial Acupuncture

The Problem With Acne Acne is unpleasant and disgusting. Any teenager would tell you. Acne would break out at the inopportune and unexpected moment, causing a great deal of heartaches and frustration. Many of us missed out on dates because of acne. We dared not go out on social occasions because of several red pus-filled spots on our faces.

And horrors of horrors, acne leaves scars. Our mothers must have warned us countless times not to pick at the swollen red spots, no matter how tempting they looked. Squeezing the spots only make the acne worse. Remember the nickname ‘Crater Face’? That’s what happens when you pick and squeeze your acne – you leave unsightly craters or scars.

Natural Is The Way

By now, I must have frightened you with the paragraphs above. If I have, I sincerely apologize. I have had acne before and I knew how horrible it was. And like any person – teen and adult – with acne problems, I am always on the outlook for cures and treatments.

Ordinary skincare products do not seem to work with me and I am sure that there are some readers who would agree with me whole-heartedly. Ordinary skincare products ended up creating more problems for my very sensitive skin. So, I have decided – for my own peace of mind – on using acne natural treatment.

That’s right. Going natural. Herbs and stuff, even fruits and vegetables if you so desire.

Why the natural way? It is gentle. It is less painful than the usual skincare products. And besides, acne natural treatment also smells quite pleasant.

A Basket Of Herbs, Fruits and Vegetables

The best way to start your acne natural treatment is to look at your shopping basket or your fridge. Herbs, fruits and vegetables are excellent alternatives for the treatment of acne and acne scars.

You can begin your acne natural treatment regime with aloe vera. Aloe vera has anti-bacterial properties and its cool mucous liquid (if you cut off the tip of an aloe vera stalk) acts as a cooling agent for inflammations and skin irritations. It acts to reduce the oily secretions and prevents further occurrence of acne. Apply aloe vera juice or gel on your acne or acne scars. Aloe vera is also recommended by Ayurvedic practitioners.

Cucumber is a tasty addition to any salad or sandwich. It is also a good facial cleanser, improving skin elasticity. You can slice cucumber up and apply them on the affected spots. Cucumber acts as a good facial mask too. You can also mix cucumber with lettuce and carrot for a combo mask.

Fresh lemon juice – great for making lemonade on a hot summer’s day – can be used as a facial wash. Wash your face with the juice and wash it thoroughly with clean water. You can also use fresh apricots as well.

For a luxurious and yummy facial mask – who says acne natural treatment is unpleasant? – use buttermilk and bran (or oats). Mix them well until the mixture is homogenous. Apply the facial mask on the face. The bran (and oats) acts as a deep cleanser and a good exfoliate for the skin.

Herbs like dandelion, witchhazel and red clover are excellent to treat acne. These herbs purify the bloodstream of toxins

Of course, eating more fruits and vegetables not only reduces acne but it gives your entire body a cleaner bill of health.

Changing Life-Style Habits

Acne is often caused by a slew of factors, stress being one of the triggers. Add this to our already-hectic and busy life-styles with lack of adequate nutrition and rest – and acne (and other unwholesome problems) might just occur.

One way to deal with this (and it is part of acne natural treatment!) is to change your life-style habits. It is up to you to start making wise decisions for your personal physical health and well-being.

Start by having adequate sleep. Exhaustion often triggers acne and makes it worse. Change your diet by reducing all fatty and salty food. Drink a lot of water (to flush your systems of toxins). No more chocolate and more greens in your diet. Meditate more to seek a balance of your inner emotions.

Now, It’s Up To You

The article is only an introductory piece to acne natural treatment. If you are like me, wary of medical procedures, you can consider the natural way to deal with acne. Now, it’s up to you to start reading up more about acne treatment, natural style. Ultimately, your body will thank you for your efforts.
