Acne Skin Treatment and PreventionIn a perfect world, our skin would simply perform and function normally without any breakouts and irritations. However, as you well know, it's not a perfect world, and none of us has the perfect skin to show for it. Unfortunately, blemishes and even serious breakouts are fairly common, and over the counter acne skin treatment can only do so much. Learn about: Treatments For Acne By some estimates, more than 1 in 5 adults between the ages of 25 and 40 will develop adult acne. In most cases this can be treated with a regimen of Isolaz photo treatment, exfoliation, cleansing and the application of products containing benzoyl peroxide, topical antibiotics and/or retinoids. In the event that your case is more severe, acne treatment using laser- and light-based technologies over a more extended time frame (3-5 treatments) offers a powerful alternative. We highly recommend consulting with cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Keith Thomae if OTC treatments have failed to improve your skin condition. Thomae and his staff at Metroeast Cosmetic Specialty can guide you toward custom treatments that can improve the blemishes themselves from the inside out, as well as reduce the scarring that may be left behind. Severe Acne Treatment OptionsLaser- and light-based cosmetic treatments such as Isolaz are approved by the Food and Drug Administration and are proven to be effective severe acne treatment options for many people whose breakouts do not respond to traditional medications. These high-tech treatments address ongoing breakouts, as well as scarring that may have resulted from past attacks. It is important to note that consumers must go into acne skin treatment with realistic expectations of the outcome. Remember, acne skin treatment is just that: a treatment. Although the immediate results can be dramatic, it is not a cure in the strictest sense of the word. Of course, the degree to which any treatment program you undergo is successful is largely dependent upon the education, skill and experience of the cosmetic doctor you work with. Dr. Thomae and the team at Metroeast Cosmetic Specialty have had tremendous success with teen and adult blemish treatments. More information: |
