Acne is a common skin disease that does not discriminate. Studies have shown that over 85% of all people 12-24 have acne and that one in four adults between the ages of 25 and 44 experiences acne on a regular basis. Although no one knows exactly what causes acne, a wide range of acne cures have emerged such as Accutane, blue light therapy, sulfur treatments and chemical peels which all claim to rid the sufferer of acne forever. But there are also several up and-coming natural acne treatments out on the market today that are becoming increasing popular not only because they may help clear stubborn acne but because they have very little side effects and do not contain harsh ingredients that can sometimes make acne worse. Three of the more popular treatments are:
ACNEVOLUTION: Acnevolution is a natural treatment in which muscle massages are applied to neuralgic zones of the face and body. Started by Susan Thompson, an expert at the Dermatology Institute of England, the Acnevolution claims these “draining massages” will help you improve your blood circulation and stop the accumulation of residues that cause skin problems. The Acnevolution also includes a strict skin care regime. The average treatment time is generally three to six weeks, with the hope that acne and any overproduction of oil will be gone after 12 weeks.
VILANTE: Vilante (d-Calcium Pantothenate) is a water-soluble vitamin which claims to stop excessive skin oil from being released and reduces pore size thereby stopping acne. It’s 100% natural and can be taken in capsule and powder form. The creators of Vilante claim that this acne treatment is second only to Accutane in effectiveness. There can be side effects such as stool loosening, mild stomach irritation and headaches, but according the the makers of Vilante, it is impossible to overdose. Results typically can be seen after taking 20 vilante capsules a day for 3 months.
ACNEXUS Natural Acne scrub: Acnexus is an all natural acne scrub which claims to heal and prevent breakouts within 24 hours. The makers of Acnexus claim that this acne treatment does not contain any mineral oils, alcohol, Parbens, sulfates or Benzoyl Peroxide. Ingredients of Acnexus include: Organic Aloe Vera Gel, White Willow Bark, Chaparral, Gotu Kola, Alfalfa, Valerian Root, Green Tea, Walnut Shell Grit, Redmond Clay, Vegetable Glycerin, Jojoba, Oatmeal, Avocado, MSM, Bergamot Oil, Chamomile Oil, Clary Sage, Frankincense Oil, Geranium Essential Oil, Jasmine Essential Oil, Juniper Oil, Lavender Oil, Palmarosa Oil, Parchouli Oil, Rosemary Oil, Ylang Ylang and Vitamin E Oil.
