Acne- An Introduction

Health Articles | December 12, 2008

Some quick information on what acne is and what kind of action you may have to take to clear your acne.� This article is the first in a series of articles that will give you information on how to clear your acne or other skin disorders.

Acne is the most common skin disorder.� Over 10% of Americans age 25 - 44 have acne.� Over 85% Americans age 12 - 25 will have acne at one time or the other.

If ignored, acne can become infected, create scars, and pockmarks that become permanent on your face. I don't want this to happen to you, so I have written a series of articles on how to clear your acne.��

Acne Is a Disease

Acne is a disease called seborrhea or seborrheic dermatitis.� It occurs when the sebaceous glands, under your skin, become contaminated with oily toxic matter, which contains,

��dirt
��dead skin
��excess sebum oil
��acid waste
��bacteria
��toxic matter


Under normal conditions the sebaceous glands release oil that comes up through your pores onto the skin surface.� This release keeps your skin moist and lubricated for protection from the environment.

If your pores on your face are not open or plugged, this creates toxic oil that cannot move out onto your skin.� This results in a growth or pimple that start to increase in size as more toxic oil tries to reach the surface of your skin.

If the pore walls burst under the skin, white blood cells move in to digest the collagen around the pores.� When this happens, you will have scars on your face.

To avoid having scars, you need to start an acne-clearing program before you get acne or just as soon as you see acne coming so that your pimples and back heads don't get to the point where they get severely infected and burst.

Clearing Your Acne

Acne is a complex condition that involves many parts of the body even though it shows up as only eruptions on the face and else where on your skin.� It is a signal that you have problems elsewhere deep within your body.� Acne can be caused by a toxic colon, poor digestion of food, weak liver and other conditions that cause the blood to carry too much toxicity.

To clear acne it is not always possible to just do one thing and expect acne to go away.� But it may be possible to just use a special cream and have your acne diminish or clear.

Acne may go away by just doing one thing but don't expect it to.� A facial cream, diet, herbal treatmentBusiness Management Articles, and colon cleanse alone may not be able to clear acne.� A combination may or may not work.

In future articles will be covering how to get rid of acne.
