Keep pimples at bay
Removal and prevention of blackheads is part of preventive care for pimples and acne.
Daily cleansing and skin care, with appropriate products, is the only way of preventing acne and other oily-skin conditions. A medicated cleanser, which is specially formulated for oily skins, should be used. This helps to reduce surface grease and restores the natural acid-alkaline balance. Use plenty of water to wash off all traces of the cleanser.
In order to deep cleanse the skin, cleansing grains mixed with a rose-based skin tonic should be rubbed gently on the skin. This helps to remove the dead cells of the outer layer and keeps the pores free of oil. Blackheads are also dislodged and discouraged from forming.
Stubborn blackheads should be removed at a skin-care clinic, by a trained therapist, using proper methods. Pinching blackheads, or trying to remove them at home, not only leads to infection, but also scarring. If there is acne, cleansing grains or scrubs should not be used.
Frequent washing with soap and water is not advocated. The face should not be washed with soap more than twice a day. Due to their alkaline nature, most soap destroys the acid-alkaline balance of the skin, leaving it predisposed to bacterial attack.
A rose skin-tonic helps to keep the skin moisturized. This can be used to wipe the face after cleansing. This not only completes the cleansing procedure, but also helps to close the pores and restore the normal balances. The skin can be wiped with the rose skin tonic several times a day to reduce surface grease.
A visit to the doctor helps
Clinical treatments are part of professional care for acne, pimples and oily skin conditions. The treatment depends on how far the condition has progressed. If the infection is severe, the main emphasis is on controlling the condition and checks it from spreading.
