Warning: Acne 101 - Learn About Practical Resources By: Nathan Knightley
There are myriad acne alternative treatments being sold today, all purport to clear up your skin instantly. A lot of Internet sites show full of pages of testimonials from persons who were cured by using the treatments. And some of them have been. But sometimes, an acne alternative might work for someone but not for another. It does not matter what the claims of the various stores who advertise skin care merchandises, facials, and nutritional regimens to clear up your skin, until a particular treatment is tried on an person, nobody knows whether it's going to do much good. Unfortunately, that means for most of us, it's hit or miss.


Once you've gotten fed up with the antibiotics, topical treatments and Accutane offered by your dermatologist, where do you begin? Or, perhaps you never wanted to go that direction in the first place. Whatever drove you to seek a non traditional acne alternative, you have to start somewhere.


The first thing to do is discuss with others. I am pretty sure that you know several people who have experienced acne and cleared it up or who have it now and are in the process of clearing it up. Learn from their experience. Write down information. Then try some of the things that were efficient for them. Hope for the best, but realize that it might take some time before you hit on the combination of products, treatments and lifestyle changes that will help you the most.


Another thing is that some acne alternative products containing the same basic ingredients vary greatly in price. Study what kind of active ingredients are in products and try the less expensive versions of them before you pay for the more costly ones.


It's also a great idea to seek the help of professionals. Naturopaths have lots of vitamins, herbs and gentle cleansers that can work wonders. The high-priced prescription medicine Accutane is in reality copied from plain old Vitamin A. Under a naturopath's care, you can take high doses of Vitamin A for predetermined periods, along with other vitamins and herbs and potentially clear up your skin without the side effects of Accutane, which, if you are female, can consist of birth defects in your children should you become pregnant while taking the product.


Light therapy is a promising acne alternative. For many, acne is cleared up with the application of red and blue ultraviolet light for a set amount of time each day. You can buy on the Internet a device that emits this type of light safely. They cost in the range of $200. This is a less expensive alternative to attempt before going to an esthetician who has comparable, more powerful equipment.
