Mild Acne is quite common and persists for different amounts of time for different people. This can be due to varying environmental or genetic factors, or a combination of both.
Mild acne usually consists of minor breakouts of whiteheads, blackheads, pimples and zits. While these breakouts don't persist for extended periods of time, they can be painfully uncomfortable or irritating to the skin, especially the skin on the face and forehead.
For any type of skin
problem, it's best to consult with a dermatologist for advice. She or he will be able to identify exactly the type of acne you have, its degree of severity, and the type medication that you might choose to use.
However, with mild acne, it's often recommended to start first by using a topical cream. Commonly, this can be bought without a prescription over the counter (OTC).
Topical creams are rubbed in over the affected skin area. Used nearly two or three times per day,
along with proper washing and rinsing, it's effective against minor cases of acne. But, you need to be sure and give the medicine six or eight weeks, even if the acne has subsided, before you stop using it.
In the beginning of use, even OTC medicines may cause you some minor burning or irritation. Most OTC skin creams of this nature take anywhere from a week or two to get used to (or, for the slight burning or irritation to stop).
There are many types of medicines
available. As mentioned, it's important to consult with a doctor or dermatologist before starting your own treatment regimen, even if the creams or medications are available OTC. In any case, benzyl peroxide, resorcinol, salicylic acid, and sulfur are commonly used to treat minor cases of acne.
Benzyl peroxide will help lower the oil production in your facial skin glands. Resorcinol, salicylic acid and sulfur are effective against eliminating whiteheads and blackheads Salicylic
acid also helps cut down the shedding of cells, which prevents pores from getting overly clogged or plugged with residue. Topical creams can come in the form of a daily lotion or gel, oil-free creams and soaps.
Again, remember that it can take some time before you start to see (or even feel) the benefits of such medications. There are other alternatives as minor acne isn't as much of a nuisance as other, more extreme cases.
In any regard, be sure to follow your plan for
Actimine provides the nutrients needed by your body to regulate the occurrence of acne, eliminating the potential scarring and embarrassment which often result from chronic breakouts.
