Herbal Remedies For Acne
Ok, you’re finally out of puberty and well into adulthood. Thought you’re done with the breakouts….Oh, no, now what Adult Acne? Now you have wrinkles AND pimples to deal with…it’s just not fair! But, you’re not alone.
Up to 50% of adult women and 25% adult males suffer from acne. And, to make matters worse, up to 1/3 of these adults also suffer from acne on the back and chest area …this is commonly called body acne. So, it’s easy to see why there are so many adult acne treatment products on the market today.
Plus, studies found that is there a rise in adult acne and the acne symptoms lasts longer which means the required treatment may have to last longer – sometimes until our mid forties.
As you probably already know, this is very distressful for middle aged adults who are now also dealing wrinkles too! That is why your adult acne treatment needs to be strong but should not dry out aging skin.
Adult Acne Causes
While we’re not completely sure of the reasons why some adults suffer from acne and others don’t, there is some speculation that it’s connected to the hormone androgen which is present in both men and women.
When hormones become unbalanced and there is excess androgen, the glands produce too much oil and this causes bacteria to grow – leading to pimples and breakouts. Many women have found that birth control is an effective hormonal acne treatment because it lowers the hormone androgen.
Other possible causes include:
- Stress
- Poor diet
- Congested toxic liver
Herbal Treatment for Adult Acne
There are thousands of products that claim to be “adult acne cures”, but in my experience of evaluating adult acne treatments there really isn’t a “Cure”. However, there is a simple and natural Herbal Adult Acne treatment that makes sense, heals the skin, is very gentle, and treats the symptoms from the inside as well as the outside. Which is probably why it’s more effective than just your typical acne product.
I have found that when adult acne suffers use a combination of a gentle skin wash and topical gel which contains a mild 2% salicylic acid (which is great for wrinkles too!!) along with Medowsweet and Spirae Ulmaria extract there were able to help reduce infection, breakouts, redness, and heal the skin.
Combine this topical wash and gel with a daily dose of specific Chinese herbs like Neem, Chaste Tree, Dandelion, Milk Thistle, Honeysuckle…. The acne sufferers got better and faster results. And they didn’t damage already sensitive aging skin. Learn more about adult acne treatments and Chinese herbs here.
