The first step of proactive treatment in acne relies on the
premise that the skin blemish is healed before further steps to
check its reappearance are taken in hand. The start point of
skin healing in the proactive approach is to examine the ways in
which the skin can be cleaned, with the help of an effective
skin cleanser.
The ideal cleanser to effect a healing of skin blemished by acne
is one that will help exfoliate the skin and expose the dead
skin cells. The exfoliated skin can then be treated with benzoyl
peroxide as that will kill the bacteria causing acne to appear
on the skin surface.
The benzoyl will also be in a position to
penetrate the skin pores as the cleanser has exfoliated the skin
sufficiently. This action will not only heal the blemishes but
also attack the bacteria, providing a curing and preventive
action in one go.
With the immediate problem taken in hand the next stage of the
three-way proactive approach to control acne is to choose an
ideal skin toner. When shopping for the right product one should
look for a skin toner that is alcohol free and is a water based
toner. This kind of skin toner will help remove dead skin cells
and unplug clogged pores, allowing the skin to remain healthy
and acne free. It will also help in the removal of excess oil
that usually forms on skins prone to acne eruptions. The
application of such a skin tone on a regular basis will thus
help balance the skin tone and maintain a skin that is acne free
and free of oil imbalance and clogged pores.
In the final stages, when the healing effect is well on the course and the skin is limping back to its original health, steps have to be taken to assist the process and recover lost ground. In such state a repairing lotion must be applied regularly on the skin. The skin at this stage is acne free but the scars of blackheads and whiteheads are just skin deep. So the users are advised to apply oil-free repairing lotion that will heal blackheads and whiteheads, while making the skin glow and acne blemishes, a thing of the past.
