What is a blackhead?

Scale of his blackheads
Blackheads are technically still open comedo. These bumps are often indented and May look like small plug. The confusion over blackheads and white heads has to do with the fact that blackheads accompany oily skin, where white heads could be oily or dry skin.
What causes blackheads?

A blackhead is excess oil, which clogged a pore. This clog occurs when the built-up oil is unable to flow to the surface of the skin due to deformities or pore affected and dead skin cells block the way. If the pore is opened, the oil is exposed to oxygen which reacts and turns it a dark color, which is in a black head.

* Hormones are the main cause for increased oil production. An increase of male hormones, androgens, the natural production of oil in the skin caused more oil to build in the pores, often times what the appearance of black head.

* Avoid using creamy, greasy, and thick (emollient) products. This alone will significantly reduce your chances of sprouting blackheads.

If you have dry skin, you need a detergent that has a bit of moisturizer in it, but be careful! The surplus moisturizer can lead to a rise in oil on your skin.

Skin-peeling away the structure of dead cells inside the pores that cause them to be misshapen and more-easily clogged. By using a skin Exfoliante, the 1% or 2% beta-hydroxy acids (BHA or salicylic acid) in the lining of the pore. If you are unable to use BHAS, you can use products with alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), but these acids are only good for surface exfoliation, because they do not penetrate the pore lining.
* Absorb excess oil. If you have oily skin, try using a clay mask that does not include spearmint, peppermint or other irritating ingredients. This will absorb the oil clog May that the poor.

Get rid of scars after acne. Is it possible?

noreply@blogger.com (Proactiv Supply) — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 11:29:00 +0000

Scarring from acne can seem like double punishment - first you had to deal with the pimples, now you have marks as a reminder.

Is there anything you can do?

To understand scars, you need to understand acne. Acne refers to lesions or pimples caused when the hair follicles (or "pores") on the skin are clogged with oil and dead skin cells. A plugged follicle is the perfect place for bacteria to grow and create the red bumps and pus-filled red bumps known as an pimples. (The usual bacteria that causes acne is called Propionibacterium acnes.) Hormonal changes during the fourteen years often lead to increased oil production that caused the problem.

Acne comes in different forms:

* Mild acne, which refers to the white heads or blackheads that most of us are at different times
* Moderately severe acne, also known as red pimples inflamed papules and red with white pimple centers called pustules
* Severe acne, which causes nodules - painful, pus-filled cysts or lumps - to appear under the skin

The most severe scarring by the severe forms of acne, with nodules more likely to leave permanent scars than other types of acne. The best way to deal with acne is to soon after the treatment of acne apparently to prevent further severe acne and scars. If you have nodules, see your doctor or dermatologist for treatment.

If you have severe scarring from previous Bouts with acne, there are some things you can do. One form of treatment is laser resurfacing, what can be done in the doctor or dermatologist's office. The laser removes the damaged top layer of skin and tightens the middle layer, so that the skin smoother. This may take a few minutes to an hour. The doctor will try to alleviate any pain by first stun the skin with local anesthesia. It usually takes 3 to 10 days for the skin to heal completely.

Another method for treating acne scarring is dermabrasion, with a rotating wire brush or spinning diamond instrument to wear down the surface of the skin. As the skin heals, a new, smoother layer replaces the abraded skin. It may take a little longer for the skin to heal using dermabrasion - usually between 10 days and 3 weeks.

The latest form of treatment of acne scars is a fractional laser therapy. This kind of treatment works on a deeper level than laser resurfacing or dermabrasion, broken Since laser therapy is not wound to the upper layer of tissue, healing time is shorter. Fractional laser therapy is very expensive, and it is usually not covered by insurance.

A person who has acne should be under control before any of these treatments.

Depending on the severity of acne scars, the doctor or dermatologist May also pointed out a chemical peel or microdermabrasion to the appearance marked areas. These milder treatments can be done directly in the office.

Sometimes doctors inject material under the scar to make it to the level of normal skin. Finally, in some cases, a doctor may recommend surgery to deep scars.

One thing you should not do to deal with acne scars is load your face with masks or fancy name lotions - these will not help and May irritate the skin further, so that the scars red and even more noticeable.

If you have a red or brownish mark on your face that you are a poor ZIT, have no fear - it will eventually fade, just like the scars you had on your knees fell after you from your bike when you were a kid . However, it may take 12 months or longer - so your best bet is to these types of brands not covered by the press or pop your Zits, no matter how tempting it may seem.

Roaccutane capsules. How does it work?

noreply@blogger.com (Proactiv Supply) — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 10:06:00 +0000

How does it work?

Roaccutane capsules contain the drug isotretinoin. (NB. isotretinoin capsules are also without a brand name, ie as the generic medicine.) Isotretinoin belongs to a group of medicines known as retinoids, which are derivatives of vitamin A. isotretinoin through the mouth works by reducing the production of the skin 'S natural oil (sebum).

Acne occurs because of an excessive production of tallow from over-active sebaceous glands in the skin. The blocks tallow formation of the sebaceous glands, which prevents the oil from flowing freely and leads to an accumulation of tallow under the skin. The bacteria associated with acne thrive in these conditions. They feed from tallow and produce waste products and fatty acids that irritate the sebaceous glands, it inflamed and cause stains.

Isotretinoin reduces the size and activity of the sebaceous glands in the skin, making the Sebumreduktion that is produced. This prevents the glands are blocked and the means bacteria are less likely to thrive. It also reduces inflammation of the skin.

Isotretinoin may have serious side effects and their use must be supervised by a dermatologist. It is reserved for the treatment of severe acne (or nodular acne Acne Conglobata or threatened with permanent scarring), has not improved with standard treatment with oral antibiotics and topical medicines.

May your acne worse at the start of treatment, but these subsidies are usually within 7 to 10 days after treatment. In most cases, complete or almost complete clearance of acne is achieved with a 12 to 16 weeks of treatment, and you are likely to remain free of acne for a long time. Repeat courses are generally not recommended, unless a relapse is definitely seen after treatment is stopped. Repeat courses should not be started until at least eight weeks after the treatment, how your acne can be improved during this period.

noreply@blogger.com (Proactiv Supply) — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 13:11:00 +0000

What is acne?
Acne (acne, acne rash) - disease of the sebaceous glands. Typically, acne represent an inflammatory knots (acne) in red, often painful, and not inflammatory elements, which constitute more painless black. Acne on the skin are the face, neck, chest and back. This is a chronic, long-term illness ( "acne disease"), causing severe emotional distress, particularly among young people and require a long, careful treatment.

Why am I having acne?
Elements of acne arise from the sebaceous hair-clogging in the chimney. This occurs when excess skin cluster lard and exfoliated skin scales cornea. Such conditions are favourable for breeding bacteria that can cause acne on the skin.
In adolescence and young women cause acne may be the natural age-related changes hormonal balance ( "hormonal surge"), sometimes not passing into adulthood and individuals as well as more serious hormonal changes associated with sexual violation to make hormones.

What mechanism appear Blackheads?
When the cornea flakes accumulate in abundance, and together they form a cork - komedon. This plugin close sebaceous hair protocol. As a result, skin fat accumulated in the sebaceous glands. In these circumstances, bacteria that normally live in the sebaceous glands, are beginning to grow strongly. This leads susceptible to inflammation - the appearance of acne and Blackheads.

What aggravates during acne?
Provoke acne rash factors:
* Cosmetics (preparations containing lanolin, influenza, sulfur, - creams, salmon, powder)
* Tyanuschie skin (such as mobile phone), squeezing black dots and Blackheads, self-treatment
* 70% of women's disease exacerbated by the week before menstruation
* The psychological stress and depression
* Endocrine diseases of genital organs and glands
Acne is not linked to poor hygiene. Too frequent washing may aggravate the skin and dried over the disease.

Nutrition does not affect the formation of acne: chocolate, butter, fat, acute food may not cause acne. Nevertheless, some of the patients said that certain foods aggravate the disease, in such cases, these products should be avoided.
The summer period is not necessarily accompanied by a remission. The fact is that UV radiation has the ability to masks and disinfectants. But this temporary effect is fraught with further exacerbation of the disease, because high doses of local UFO weakened immune protection, reinforce and further inhibit the rejection of skin scales in holes sebaceous glands, resulting in an increase in discharge.

What should I do if I have Blackheads / acne rashes ?
To solve the problem of acne rashes need as soon as possible, consultation dermatologist. Regular cosmetics, advertised as a means of acne, does not have the necessary set of medicines for the treatment of acne. "Remove acne" are not always successful.
Cosmetology procedures are not curative, but only subsidiary.
Acne disease - skin diseases, with their degrees.
Only a doctor dermatologist can and must choose the correct treatment.
Self always insufficient or ineffective, and often dangerous, because it could lead to a deterioration of acne disease, serious complications, scarring.

Should I get rid of those surveyed had acne or Blackheads?
The appearance of acne in people older than 25 years should serve as an occasion to conduct a detailed survey of the body, acne, because at this age may be a symptom of a disease or hormonal changes of internal organs.

How to care for acne rashes ?
In order to get rid of acne and carry out effective treatment of acne, you must first:
* Hinder acne
* Destroy existing acne
* Reduction of cutaneous lard appearance
* Dopolnyayuschy process of breeding bacteria

Sometimes, for certain treatments are not acne dermatology, doctors and others - for example, therapists or beauty without seniority in dermatology, and even no medical education. Our experience shows that it is difficult to cure acne, without any significant clinical experience in dermatology. Only a full understanding of etiology and pathogenesis of the disease, knowledge of mechanisms for long-term care and practice their application can guarantee a reliable result.

Proactiv and Whitehead

noreply@blogger.com (Proactiv Supply) — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 13:04:00 +0000

Proactiv Solution. It all starts with a basic acne lesions: comedo, enlarged hair follicle plugged with oil, dead skin cells and bacteria. Invisible to the naked eye, comedo lurks under the surface of your skin is waiting for proper conditions for growth in the defeat of inflammation. As the skin continues to produce more oil, bacteria grow in the swollen follicle. The skin around becoming more inflamed, how your white blood cells against intruders.

Despite all the pimples start the same way, they can take many forms and may react differently to different people. Keep in mind that the following guidance is not intended to be used for self-final diagnosis. These definitions can be used to help you decide whether you should consider seeking medical assistance.

Closed comedo or whitehead. If you connect the follicle remains below the surface of the skin lesion is called a closed comedo or whitehead. They usually appear on the skin as small, whitish bumps.

Proactiv VS Blackheads.

noreply@blogger.com (Proactiv Supply) — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 12:59:00 +0000

Patients ask:
Essntially a blackhead is a blocked pore filled with sebum which has oxidized, hence the "black". Therapists will usually steam before doing any extractions, so yes, heat does make them easier to remove but not sure about "just appearing"???

I think I may have a clue as to why I get blackheads specifically - Im using the Johnsons Holiday Skin for the face and I have done for 2 days straight. After the first week of using it a couple of months ago I noticed my blackhead breakout so I stopped - this was around the same time I started Proactive so I did notice a difference when I didnt use the Holiday Skin. As I do like my face with a bit more colour I alternated each day with the Proactive once my skin started to clear up and the blackheads were still appearing but not as frequently. Now, after using it for 2 days straight I've put 2 and 2 together and realised that its this particular gradual tanner. Well, it may not be the sole cause but its a definite contributer.

I've wanted in particular to have abit more colour on my face as its New Years eve tommorow, I havent put any on tonight and Im going to stop using it methinks. Im going to invest in something that is specifically non pore blocking.

I'll let you know if its makes any difference after not using it anymore. But I think it will.

My stepdaughter is now using Proactive a little to my distress.
She is only 14 with the usual teenage skin although she thinks she has bad acne. A couple of months ago I set her up with some basic skincare - a light cream cleanser (she has very dry skin), witch hazel toner, aloe vera gel as moisturiser & a Natio clay mask. I tried to keep it really simple so not to overload her skin with extra chemicals as she sufferes reactions to many things. Well this trip she arrived with the Proactive & I was a bit shocked to read all the ingrediants - lots of Glycolic acid, Benzoyl Peroxide, parabens, parfum, alcohol, ureas, etc. Which would dry the skin out.
She says she sees an improvement & I can say her face looks less red but she still has breakouts. I felt compelled to give her a lecture about how strong these chemicals are & to please keep them away from her eyes. She was wiping them right up under her eyes!!! :shocked: She also was not wearing sunscreen regularly only to the beach. The actives in Proactive would make her skin hyper sensitive to UVs so now I make her wear it everyday & got her some of her own tinted SPF30 to use. Along with a big tube for her bod by Roxy (so it looks cool dudes).
Alas there was another side effect I unfortunantly failed to forsee. She has been wipping the Peroxide off her hands onto my good towels & now they all have bleach stains on them!!!!! :eek: So please if you are using Benzoyl Peroxide, wash your hands after applying it.

Blackheads and whiteheads, Papules and pustules.

noreply@blogger.com (Proactiv Supply) — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 12:50:00 +0000

BLACKHEADS. What is it?!

Blackhead occurs when opens the pores on the surface, and sebum, which contains the skin pigment melanin, oxidizes and turns brown / black. This is not dirt and can not be washed away. Blackheads can last for a long time, since the content very slowly drain to the surface.

WHITEHEADS! What is it?!

When trapped sebum and bacteria to remain below the surface of the skin, whitehead is formed. Whiteheads can show how tiny white spots, or they may be so small that they are invisible to the naked eye.

Papule! What is it?!

Papule happens when there is a break in follicular wall. White blood cells in haste and pore becomes inflamed.

Pustule! What is it?!

Pustule forms a few days later, when the white blood cells make their way to the surface of the skin. This is what people usually referred to as "zit" or "pimple".

My skin has hit an all time low using the Proactiv "Solution". It cleared up my skin for a very short while. After that, every day got worse and worse, waking up with new breakouts and unmanageable skin. It was horrible. I used it like an addict...terrible relationship. It worked again for about a couple of days, then it bombed on me again. I suppose the only way this "solution" would work is to be dedicated to it every waking second of your life. Even then, it'll probably give you a few good days in your life.
All in all, it works....sort of. And that's only because you'd have to sell your soul to it. Very unfair. I'd like my soul back.

Do not sign up for this product. Sales and account reps are too aggressive.
There are comparable products out there. Buy those instead. I signed up for this product . I had a hard time canceling my subscription because of the account reps. THIS PRODUCT IS NOT WORTH THE HASSLE. FYI - This product dried out my skin. I just wanted to be able to cancel my account without the hassle. It's just common courtesy and good business sense.

Does Proactiv Solution Really Work???

noreply@blogger.com (Proactiv Supply) — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 11:34:00 +0000

This post I was found on ebay reviews. One person wrote this review and I think it helps you.

umaI wrote about proactiv solution. And now let read the ebay review.

If you want to know if this item really works, the answer is YES! I have not only sold these kits on eBay and I am also a user of the item.

Before I started using the 3pc kit I had tons of bumps on my forehead as well as a few on my cheeks, which started when I was a teenager. I thought the whole idea of paying so much for something I wasnt too sure about was a gamble.

After the first day that I tried the item, I was expecting to see a difference. Ha! I said, trying to convince myself that it was a waste of time and money. A week later I said it must do something for it to be causing a uproar on tv and online.

When I decided to try it again, I said I will try it again, but give it 2 weeks, and if I saw no difference then I would call it quits. I started out by using it once a day in the morning for 2 weeks. I didnt even notice the difference until I looked at the calender and saw that I wrote down look in the mirror.

When I looked, I was soooooo shocked to see a big difference in my skin. So I decided to use it 2 times a day like the bottle suggests, and sure enough my face became clear. I havent seen my skin in such good condition since I was 14/15!

After using this product I learned it doesnt matter if you drink soda or eat chocolate or any type of sweets. Your skin is your skin no matter what you consume. I still drink tons of soda and eat tons of chocolate and my skin remains clear. I still use my proactiv, I may even skip several days without using it and my skin still looks great.

All it takes is 2 times a day or even once a day if you like or once a week after you have started using it for a week or two on the regular.

This item is def. worth the buy.

You can try proactiv for free here.

YAY PROACTIV!

Proactiv Solution. What it is?!

noreply@blogger.com (Proactiv Supply) — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 10:44:00 +0000

Do you know what is the Proactiv?!
Proactiv Solution is a consumer product marketed as a three-step acne treatment system since 1995.
It was developed by dermatologists Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields.

What it contains?!

The Proactiv Solution system comprises three different core products, a cleanser, toner and lotion.

Indications and Side Effects

According to the website Proactiv solution has been developed for the treatment of mild to moderate cases of acne, not serious cases. Like most antibiotics for the treatment of acne, Proactiv Solution uses Benzoylperoxid as one of the most important ingredients. Benzoylperoxid may cause dryness and peeling of the skin. Some side effects may include allergic reactions, such as redness, itching, hives, swelling, and a burning sensation after topical application. Benzoylperoxid can also increase sensitivity to sunlight. As an alternative product, Proactiv Solution has marketed the formula Gentle Kit, with salicylic acid instead of Benzoyl Peroxide. It is unclear whether these effects are available with the salicylic acid preparation. Does it works?! you can read peoples feedbacks. I collect some positive and negative feedbacks here.

Sales and marketing strategies

In North America, Proactiv Solutions is sold mainly through infomercials, as advertising by Guthy - Renker, mall kiosks, and online. Buyers can automatically to a subscription business model, upset some consumers. For the dissatisfaction with the product, it was reported that some consumers difficult to cancel the automatic registration and a corresponding refunds [Ref. : Bbb.org, infomercialscams.com, Acne.org].

Also, after a certain time with Proactiv your face will actually need. If you stop with Proactiv after a certain time, (depending on your perspective) Your face will break even worse then before, and you will have to face probally cleaning, to put it off.

Proactiv Solution. Does it works?!

noreply@blogger.com (Proactiv Supply) — Mon, 22 Oct 2007 09:47:00 +0000

What are people can tell about using Proactiv?! Does it works?! Can they get a needed result?! Read comments of people!!

I LOVE THIS STUFF. it reallly does work for me
so far..
i have used it for about a month now and my skin really does feel great...slowly the zits are going away! (i have really really horrable acne. on my nose chin and forehead. I LOVE IT!

I have been using proactive for over 2 yrs and it didn't do much for me.
I have mild to moderate acne and i must say that the only reason i kept buying it was because i didn't know what else to buy.
But now i am off of it and i am using clinique.
I hope it will help me!!!!
Good luck

-gave me bumps on my forehead (the only place where i don't break out)
-made my skin really oily and itchy
-expensive

Use this product as directed otherwise you will experience drying. If you opt for the 3 piece kit be sure to use some type of moisturizer with SPF to prevent drying and minimize sun exposure. With any skin care product you have to use it more than a month or two to reap the benefits as well as using only the dime sized amount

this product is very frustrating. it works so well for me, yet dries my skin out to the point where people actually say something to me about it (rude people, that is). its like i have to choose between having acne-ridden, normal-textured skin and having clear, dry and cracked skin. totally not fair! however, in the end i'd pick the clear, dry skin over the acne-ridden skin any day.

And last post:

Pros:	Cleared my skin up since I began using it around the age of 16. If I ever had a bad breakout, I would wash my face and apply extra lotion, and wake up to clear skin in the morning.
Cons:	Very expensive. They have you on a type of "subscriber" system. Once 3 months have passed, you find yourself with more bottles of toner than cleanser or lotion. Also, this stuff is like "face crack" - stop using it, and you're screwed.
Bottom Line:	Good product to use to clear up consistent acne. However, it is almost like your face becomes dependent on this stuff for good skin health. Once you stop using it, do not expect to use cheaper products like Clean & Clear or Clearasil. You will find yourself frustrated and you will be calling the Proactiv hotline again saying, "Yea..yea..I know its $40 a pop, but just sign me up again..hurry, before I change my mind."
Recommended:	Yes
Price Paid:	$40.00

So think yourself about using this stuff!!!

With using Proactive Solution, we can get the best results for our skin without the expense because it is a proactive solution to your acne problems. When it comes to your skin, the best defense is often a good offense. Proactiv Solution stops all bacteria from forming by penetrating deep into the pores and leaving your face and skin feeling refreshed and invigorated.

Look here the video about Proativ action.

Proactiv Solution is not just another topical acne treatment product. It is an entire skin care management system that finds the source of your acne and not only heals the blemishes you have, but also treats future outbreaks that you don't even see yet! Most acne products available today only treat blemishes that you already have, without helping your skin prevent more from forming. This can lead to frustrating and costly efforts such as prescription products or even surgeries to get the results you need.

By using Proactiv twice a day, you not only restore your skin to its original smoothness, you keep it healthy and beautiful and prevent more acne from forming. And because it treats acne before it becomes evident on the skin surface, it can keep you out of the doctor's office and away from those expensive surgical procedures.

Even though Proactiv Solution is a gentle treatment, it is effective against even severe cases of acne such as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. Before Proactiv was created, many women suffering from PCOS had to try to conceal their blemishes with heavy makeup. Now Proactive solution is helping thousands of women smile and feel more confident about their skin everyday.

When people think of acne, we often think about teenagers struggling and hoping to be acne free by the time the prom rolls around. But while acne is often regarded as a teenage affliction, for hundreds of thousands of adults around the world it is a very real problem that follows them into their later years.

Cystic acne can be difficult to treat because it can be a result of imbalances in hormones caused by Polycystic Ovary Syndrome or a resistance to Insulin. Since most acne products don't treat the symptoms that cause outbreaks, getting rid of acne for good isn't very easy. It would be great if it was, but treating adult acne is not just as simple as rubbing some cream on your face before you go to bed at night.

Finding an acne treatment that is all inclusive and effective was extremely hard to find until two Stanford dermatologists set out to create a treatment that not only treats adult acne, but also helps to prevent acne scarring. Their creation, Proactiv Solution, has revolutionized the world of acne treatments. It has been called one of the efficient treatments available, by doctors and patients alike.

Proactiv is designed to be used on a daily basis, so it is a gentle cleanser that won't irritate your pores or aggravate sensitive areas on your skin. Other products often contain abrasive chemicals that can make your skin fell flaky and dry. Proactiv Solution is made of gentle botanicals like panthenol, allantoin, chamomile, and aloe to hydrate your skin and keep it smooth and delicate.

Proactive Solution is an easy-to-use three step process that works to eliminate acne. All you have to do is gently wash with the exfoliating renewing cleanser, use the revitalizing cleanser to unclog your pores, then apply the repairing lotion to prevent more bacteria from forming. It only takes a minute or two, and the result is acne free and beautiful skin!

For adults, recurring acne can cause major stress in one's life. It is hard dealing with a condition that you thought you had left behind for good with adolescence. Now, with Proactiv Solution, you can stop worrying about your skin every time you look in the mirror. With the healing and preventive powers of Proactiv, clear skin is closer than you think. It clears away your acne, helps prevent more outbreaks and scarring, and leaves your face feeling soft, smooth, and supple. Other products often cause your skin to dry up and become irritated.

Unfortunately, over the counter acne products available at the local drug store are not always the most effective treatment that you can use. Over the counter products often have very little medication in them, which doesn't do much against the cystic acne that the majority of adults who suffer from acne have. Cystic acne can lead to deep scarring, which means that acne sufferers not only have to buy acne treatments, but acne scarring treatments as well.

The most effective treatments for acne are all inclusive ones like Proactiv that clean, hydrate, and finally protect. There are other factors that may contribute to acne such as diet, but they alone are not enough to cause and prevent acne outbreaks completely. And simply washing your face with acne medications is not enough either. In fact, over scrubbing or applying too many medications can actually irritate your skin and make things worse.

Look what Proactiv Solution did to my face!
