Adult Acne – Skin rejuvenation solutions for deep acne scars and adult acne cysts

Acne, it is not just for teens anymore. Breakouts that carry over from your teen years are considered to be persistent acne. Whether you suffer from the occasional monthly breakout or a severe case of adult acne cysts, there is hope out there for clear skin. From skin rejuvenation treatments or chemical face peels, there are several options for treating adult acne cysts and deep acne scars

■ Find the cause
The common causes of breakouts may be attributed to many things: family history, hormones, stress, diet and products. Depending on your particular case, there may be an over-the-counter product, oral medication, or advanced skin care solution.

■ Solutions: Not just lotions & potions
Once root of your problem is determined a skin rejuvenation solution or chemical peel for deep acne scars may be recommended by your skin care professional. If you only have a few pimples to tame, try using a product intended to acne-prone skin and that contains benzoyl peroxide. In more serious cases and acne scarring you may consider the many new options to unleash new, smooth skin and kill bacteria.

At home, the use of topical creams that contain retinol or tretinoin have powerful exfoliating and anti-aging properties. At the spa, your esthetician may suggest either chemical face peels, microdermabrasion, or photo facials to control excess oil production, blackheads, and smooth acne cysts and scarring. Photodynamic acne therapy (PDT) is a new procedure that combines the chemical Levulan and a blue light to kill bacteria and can clear up breakouts for up to a year.

Whether you scar or not, have a bit of self-control and do not squeeze or pick a blemish! You run the risk of damaging the follicles and inevitably scarring. Should a pimple pop up before an important event, you can visit your skin care professional for a cortisone injection to zap it away.

■ Routine & Maintenance
Finding the correct combination of products and procedure to control your blemishes can become frustrating and discouraging. It is a matter of trial and error but you never know until you do try. A key factor is being consistent and not over-treating your face. If you wash acne-prone skin too frequently, it may worsen. Less is more and sun protection is vital. Some products can make the skin photo-sensitive and will either recommend that you keep out of direct sunlight completely or use a powerful daily sunscreen.

How do I know if laser hair removal is right for me?

Laser Hair Removal
For the treatment of excess hair, laser hair removal is by far one of the most effective, pain-free solutions. Laser hair removal process works by using a laser light beam to target a group of hair follicles. The laser uses an intense, pulsating beam of light passes beneath the skin to damage the root, leaving the skin unscathed. This process prevents the hair from growing back for the most part, although there is a recurrence of hair growth in some cases. However, the new hairs are finer in texture and lighter in color than the original ones. Laser hair removal treatments usually require three to four hair removal treatments.
