It's very important to keep in mind that, while acne is not normally caused by certain foods you eat, healthy diet and regular aerobic excercise can tremendously help your acne. Another very important factor is water. The human body consists of mainly water. So, it makes sense that the more water you drink the better. Typically it's suggested to consume about 8 glasses of water per day. Here are some guidelines to follow:

  • For every 10lbs. over 130lbs. of body weight add 8oz. to the normal 8 glasses of water.
  • Example: 150lbs.= 10 glasses of H2O.
  • Try to stay away from consuming a lot of soda, or other sugar-filled high calorie beverages.

TYPES OF ACNE

There are several different types and stages of acne. Here are the most common:

  • Pre-Teen Acne
  • Teen Acne
  • Adult Acne
  • Mild Acne
  • Sever Acne

For many the best way to treat acne has been through trial and error. Many people plauged with this problem end up spending hundreds of dollars each year on products looking for a cure. The best treatment for severe cases may be to see a dermatologist. A dermatologist can prescribe oral, as well as topical antibiotics to help curb the outbreaks. Some people may get acne at a young age and outgrow the problem by the time they reach early adulthood. Others, have no skin problems in their younger years and all of the sudden are facing adult acne.

 

Acne Scars - Treatments by Greg Culver


Severe cases of acne can result in ugly scarring, particularly on the face. Before you consider any one of the following cosmetic procedures your face will need to be totally free of active acne. Also keep in mind that acne scar treatment must be looked at on a case by case basis. Each case will be different and as such your dermatologist and/or your cosmetic surgeon will advise on the best treatment for your particular type of acne scarring. Also, a combination of the procedures below may be necessary to produce the best results.

Ridding your face of acne scars is a complex and delicate process and may require a combination of the treatments listed below. It is particularly important to fully research the work of the cosmetic surgeon you are considering before making the final decision to go ahead. For example, how prominent is this person in his/her field? Have you viewed photos of before and after? Are there testimonials from previous patients? All of these questions must be considered and answered in your mind before deciding on going through with the procedure to fix your acne scars.

Tip: Under no circumstances should you consider going overseas to third world countries who advertise cheaper procedures for this type of thing. Many of these clinics use under qualified people and do not provide adequate sanitation. You'll get what you pay for and then need more surgery when you return to fix the mistakes.

Okay, here are a list of procedures that are available to treat acne scars:

1. Dermabrasion - Is useful to treat shallow imperfections. Cost $1,500 per treatment and be prepared for repeat treatments.

2. Laser Resurfacing - Again, is useful for shallow imperfections. Cost $3,000 per treatment and repeat treatments are sometimes necessary.

3. Chemical Peels - Good for very mild scarring. $750 per treatment and you will need several applications.

4. Punch Techniques - For "ice pick" scars (deep scarring). Approximately $50 per punch.

5. Subcision - Useful for most scarring. Consult your dermatologist for more information.

6. Augmentation - For deeper scars. Cost is around $300-$700 per cubic centimeter for collagen. See your medical specialist for more information.
