How to Limit the Most Common Teenage Health Problem
Teenage acne is an inevitable experience for most teenagers.
It's a universal enemy of most young adults and ironically a
result of growing from child to adult. While it's not entirely
avoidable, there are ways to reduce one's acne. Dermatologists
worldwide have been battling acne for years - most of them are
consulted after the acne has started. And what they contribute
is great expertise, medications, tips on good hygiene, and
emotional support that confirms that some acne is a normal part
of life. None of this helps the self-esteem or confidence of the
teenager who consistently deals with a face in the mirror they
don't like. So consider some additional ways to limit the affect
of acne in your life. Primarily, take care of your body. What
type of food are you eating? How much sleep do you get? Do you
wash with a hypoallergenic soap? These considerations are
important ones. Food, for example, plays a big part in acne.
Consult your dermatologist or online guide for more tips but be
aware that fruits and vegetables are great for more than just
healthy bones and teeth - they also lead to healthy skin.
Similarly, watch your intake of sugar and manufactured products
with heavy oil or fat. Another preventative measure is to review
and sample Proactiv, Clearasil, and other acne prevention or
removal products and see if any of them work for you. Depending
on your skin type, the type of acne you have, or how your body
responds to different forms of medication, these products may
have a selective benefit for you. Finally, take care of your
insides. No matter what effect acne has on your outside
appearance during your teen years, only you can determine how
you feel about your appearance and your looks. I'm not trying to
minimize the emotional affect of acne, especially if some of the
scars are permanent, but appearance alone is still only one
factor that contributes to one's confidence and ultimately their
enjoyment of and success in life. If you can regularly look in
the mirror and say "I like myself" or "I like who I'm becoming",
acne will never determine your sense of self. Do your best to
prevent or reduce acne's affect on your physical appearance, and
don't forget to take care of your inner self as well.
