Pimple Story Sequel 1: New Hope

Admit it…there has been at least one time in your life where there was pimple on your face at just the wrong time. Whether it is first date, your senior promenade, or that big big job interview, everyone be focusing on the pimple instead of the whole you. Today, w/ all the many scientific advances, there are different new handlings for pimples that may just be the ticket to a clearer face and body.

The most frequent pimples treatments on the market today can be bought over the counter. Some common brand name treatments you can find at the drug stores are Neutrogena Clearasil, and Seabreeze. Most of these brands have creams, facial washes, pimple pads and moisturizers. When employing these treatments, do not give up on the product if your acne hasn't shown a big deal of improvement in a week or a day. Many times it takes some mistakes or what we call 'trial and error' to find the product that will work… you need to give each product about 2 weeks to reach any kind of effectiveness.

A new trend in treating acne is the product Proactiv. After countless commercial, ads in magazines and over the internet, it is becoming 1 of the most widely known acne treatments on the market. w/ celebrities raving about the results they get w/ this product, many people are bulging to try it out…w/ mixed effects. The ingredients in Proactiv can be found in many of the other treatments you can get at local shops. The only difference between the products - the price.

One specific type of pimple that many people find frequently on their face are blackheads, a particularly hard type of pimples to get rid of. Found mostly on our nose, cheeks and ears, this type of pimples is a very deep, hard to reach blemish that is like impossible to deal with. However, there are products are on the market to help with this type of pimple as well. Commonly known as “nose strips”, this treatment consists of a strip that has a substance on it that dries and literally removes the blackhead from the pore. Washing does little to stop blackheads from appearing on your face, but washing should be done if you try to squeeze this type of pimples. You can do more damage to your face trying to “self-extract” blackheads!

Today there is a comparatively new treatment out there for mild to moderate pimple. It is a hand-held device known as the Zeno pimple Clearing Device. This FDA approved pimple clearing device applies a precise 2 ½ minute heat treatment to pimples. This heat treatment kills the bacteria causing the pimple, thus healing the pimple. Unlike other treatments on the market, the Zeno pimple Clearing Device can clear up a pimple in a day as opposed to weeks w/ other choices.

Right hygiene is still the best way to fight acne on your face and other parts of your body. Washing your face regularly with a mild soap will usually keep pimple at bay. Regular soap and water won’t irritate your face like some pimple treatment products may. Only those with severe pimples will require any kind of visits to a skin doctor for prescription pimple medicines.

I'm not promoting any products here, I'm just relaying stories I heard from friends which they said are working. It is your own decision that should take place, and don't forget what I always say - Doctor's advice are best.
