Having acne problems, for both men and women, could be very depressing. It could affect our self esteem, confidence and how we think about ourselves. Acne normally happens during our puberty time, this is when the hormones are increased due to excess of oil in the body. Clogged skin, bacteria and family background are also likely to be some causes of acne.
Over time, acne will decrease and tends to disappear. However, we can’t predict when this gonna happen and sometimes it might even come back again. Therefore, acne should not be neglected and should be treated with care.
Tip in taking care of it·Facial washing
It is important that we wash our face regularly, but do not over wash. Contrary to many people believes, acne is not caused by dirt or hygiene. So, washing your face too often could actually stimulate extra oil production, results in more breakouts, and also, avoid rubbing or washing your face too hard, you could irritate your skin and cause more acne problem.
It is best to gently wash your face 2-3 times daily with warm water and mild soap.
Avoid picking and squeezing
Do not pick or squeeze your pimples, unless if you want permanent scar left on your face. Picking and squeezing can push bacteria deeper into the skin cells, which will cause greater inflammation and infection on your face.
