Oily
Skin
Who is more prone to suffering
from oily skin, in reality this is not about a
particular skin type being susceptible to being
affected by oily skin. We also have people who
suffer in contrast to this condition and that
being the problem of having dry
skin.
It is said that one out every
two adolescents (teens) has oily skin. Even the
famous are not exempt; skin is skin so no
matter how much money you have will not exclude
you from natural happenings of the human body.
However, having money can help when it comes
down to having wrinkle treatments done like
expensive cosmetic surgery to remedy premature
aging signs. Once again all the money in the
world will not help if any risks should arise
throughout surgery; this should be considered
before going under the surgeon’s knife for
whatever purpose.
 "Unique"
Rejuvenating Skin Care
Recipes
Stars like the beautiful
Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton, Puff Daddy,
Eminem; all pitch various products and
treatments for oily skin. Most of these
products are nothing more than a mild benzoyl
peroxide or salicylic (less than 2%) cleanser.
However you have to be careful when choosing
beauty products to treat your oily skin.
Although an advert with big name stars as such
does not necessarily mean that what they
promote will deliver the promise in a cure for
your oily skin etc. When dermatologists were
approached on the matter of these specific
products introduced they were give given the
thumbs down There specialists recommendations
involved
1) Skin peels and laser
treatments.
2)
Tetracycline
3) Accutane - in
severe acne cases only.
4)
Doxycycline
5)
Cetaphil
Things you need to know that I
found which you may find useful in your quest
to treat your oily skin.
Benzoyl peroxide will only
affect the surface and irritate it. Salicylic
acid is a weaker acid and must be used in much
stronger strengths to be effective - lees than
10% just won't cut it. What really works is
treating the bacteria that are rampant in oily
skin. This is what causes acne. A
trichloroacetic acid (TCA peel) skin peel is
the most effective external treatment and now
the most cost effective as it is currently
available to consumers for in home use. A TCA
peel will alter the skin pH (acidity levels)
and make the conditions unfavourable for the
bacteria. TCA peels will also get rid of excess
oil, increase exfoliation, collagen production,
and new skin production - all helpful with oily
skin. TCA peels are also very effective on acne
scars - an added plus. And the best thing is
there are no side effects but because we all
differ in our needs and wants then could be a
possibility of this
happening..
Never use beauty products on
the skin that you are unfamiliar with because
it can be very damaging indeed not only to your
skin but towards your health too. Tetracycline
is available by prescription only. It will kill
the bacteria, but only for as long as you keep
taking it. It will not affect the oiliness and
is not effective against mild to severe acne.
It also has side effects like yellow
teeth.
There are similar antibiotics
like doxycycline that have basically the same
results. Side affects normally come with all
types of medications whether it is for the face
or medicinal purposes to cure a disease.
Accutane is a very drastic prescription only
medication. The side effects can be quite
severe and are common. Blood tests must be done
on a weekly or monthly basis. Accutane will
cease the production of oil by stopping the
functionality of the sebaceous glands. Usually
this was reserved for mild to severe acne
patients.
Lasers have been used in a
limited capacity as they are still too
expensive and are mostly effective on thee
resultant scarring from the acne, not on the
oiliness and excess sebum
production.
One can conclude
that the most effective treatment with the
least cost is TCA peels. Now you know how to
permanently cure oily skin, treat acne, and
have beautiful skin from a real dermatologist’s
perspective. Don't be misled by highly
compensated endorsers that promote and decline
to use the product they endorse
themselves.
Oily skin or dry skin -
whatever your concern you must speak to a
medical expert and not take advice from any
other source. Your health comes first so bear
this in mind if you are introduced to a new
beauty products.
