Comments on: How to Treat Pimples

on 4/17/2007 STOP EVERYTHING AND LISTEN-THIS IS THE LAST ACNE TREATMENT YOU WILL EVER USE.What really causes pimples is an ovrworked liver. It has to filter out hormones from the blood, but if it's weak or clogged it can't work properly. So along with topical methods, make sure to keep a healthy liver. Eating foods with a lot of green in it has enzymes which help digest food ad takes a huge burden of your liver. Also, eat lots of fiber as this will absorb the built up toxins your body will begin to flush out. If you do't absorb it, the blood will, and you know where it's heading. People often wonder why some street bum has awwsome skin, or someone who eats junk food never break out. and they are breaking out. It all has to do with a strong liver AS IT ABSORBS ALL THE IMPURITIES FROM THE BLOOD LIKE A FILTER AND SENDS OUT THE CLEAN BLOOD. The same applies to the reason why some teenagers get acne and some don't. Acne is a cry for help from your liver, so don't ignore it, act on it. I've had acne ever since i could remember and i've tried everything- from proactive to accutane, but nothing has work like the liver regiment i picked up.Now all I use is a salicylic face wash and moisturizer. I can't stress on how important a healthy working liver is. Most people's liver are only working at 65%. Yours could be much lower, But you could get it up to at least 80%. It's worked for me and I just feel that I should share it as I see soo may short term remedies being posted here.Those will work, but not for long. The one i'm talking about will be the last one you ever use, and it will last the rest of your life. If you are serious about clearer skin, visit,http://www.natural-acne-treatments.com/ and if you have any questions at all just email me at "thehalfvolley@yahoo.com". I am not their promoter, just someone who was at the end of the road and said, what the heck, i'll try it. I was only 4 days into it when my chapped lips, which i've had all my life, completely healed. Now all I have to do is find the right moisturizer for my sensitive skin. A healthy liver is paramount, it is key, do it, do it, do it. This is all i can say. You also know what works for you so don't forget. Topical methods and clays should also be used but all that is explained on the website. Every human deserves clear skin.

on 4/7/2007 ATTENTION!!!! PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN TO THESE IDIOTS TOOTHPASTE ALCOHOL AND PEROXIDE WILL ONLY STRIP YOUR SKIN AND MAKE YOUR OIL GLANDS OVER COMPENSATE CAUSING MORE PIMPLES! DO NOT USE ANY OF THOSE PRODUCTS AND BENZOIL PEROXIDE MAY MAKE YOUR SKIN RED AND DRY IF LEFT ON SKIN IT MAY ALSO CAUSE BREAKOUTS!

on 4/7/2007 Okay, some people say to put toothpaste rubbing alcohol or peroxide on your pimples, THIS WILL NOT WORK! This will only strip the top layer of skin, causing the tingling sensation, and peroxide can bleach your skin, and cause break outs in places that were clear before, if you do any of those things that are you are strongly advised against by trained dermatologists you will be sorry, and also if you have been using clean and clear clearasil or proactive and have experienced breakouts in places you didnt get them before or skin inflammation you may be reacting to the leave on benzoyl peroxide treatments, and should rinse them off after a period of time.

on 3/24/2007 the Visine idea does NOT work. when i first heard about it, i thought "wow, what a fabulous idea!" however, it absolutely did not work to any degree. and i tried it on more than one pimple during different break-outs. i was very disappointed!!!!

on 2/10/2007 please answer my question

on 2/12/2007 PLEASE I AM A LITTLE GIRL ONLY 13YRS OF AGE. I CAN NOT AFFORD ALL THESE THINGS. CAN U PLEASE GIVE ME ANY SIMPLE METHOD?

on 2/10/2007 Accutane is definately worth it for serious cases. DO NOT be detered by what you hear about side effects, at least talk to a dermatologist.

on 12/28/2006 Well as for me i think that who ever wrote the first comment was absolutly right. That person has absolutly has the same word i have.

on 12/28/2006 Well i think that some people are right, about eating certain foods. Well such as eating anything that contains nuts. Well as for me, these kinds of food i would stay away from.

on 2/12/2007 People say that soda and chocolate and junk food will make acne worse. This is a myth. Obviously if a food causes flair ups, avoid it, but it could be anything, not just pop and candy.

Now that we've gotten that out of the way, there are three major components to your skin care regimen. A cleanser, a toner, and a moisturizer. [While you cleanse, use warm water, which opens the pores and makes it easier to clean. Afterwards, dip your face in cold water to close the pores.]
It seems as though everyone is looking for that miracle product that will zap a zit once you get it, but the only way to clear skin is a routine that keeps your skin clean, healthy, and hydrated [this is where drinking a lot of water and using a moisturizer comes in]. There may be some remedies that make your zits go away over night, but these work for some and not for others, so you really can't ask another person. Just have a routine that you follow each day, and keep a balanced diet.
Also, make sure that your cleanser has some sort of exfoliant. So "microbeads" on the label would be preferable, because this helps to slough off dead skin cells. Acne is caused when your body can't slough them off quick enough and they form a plug in your pores which holds in oil and bacteria [zit].

I use proactiv solution, and it works wonders for me, but not for some. If you use it and find that your skin burns each time you use it, take a few days off and pick it back up. If that doesn't work, try using the cleanser, the toner, skipping the repairing lotion and going straight to the moisturizer.

Let's recap, shall we?
CLEANSER. TONER. MOISTURIZER.
Even if it's not proactiv. These are so important. Lots of water. This keeps your skin hydrated and healthy. Balanced diet and multi vitamin. These will keep your hormone levels in check. And if you wear make-up, make sure your make-up brand is non-comedogenic, and don't wear make-up while working out.

on 11/1/2006 I think, drinking lots of water and having enough sleep would help reduce pimples. And of course, with the help of treatment creams and daily face wash. If you're living in a tropical hot country, remove the oil on your face whenever possible.

on 9/18/2006 After you clean your face with a cleanser, squeeze a good amount of lemon juice on a (very) clean makeup pad and apply to face. Leave for 5 minutes, then rinse. Also, your moisturizer should be oil-free.

on 9/17/2006 Every morning and night, rub the gel from inside an aloe vera leaf on your face. The liquid keeps my face from getting oily and keeps pimples away! Different things work for different people, but I love the aloe vera.
