Acne and Anti Aging Skin Care
June 13, 2008
Normally when people speak about acne and anti aging skin care, actually they are speaking about two different things – one is pertaining to cleansing of skin and keeping it well moisturized so as to prevent acne formation where as the other one deals with the preventing and fighting off the signs of aging.
These two different conceptions are often combined to form one treatment, as they overlap in a way. It is perquisite to keep the skin clean and free from dead cells and excess oil formation. And, it is equally important to keep the skin properly moisturized so that it can breathe and fight against the dryness, which is being caused by the process of aging.
Treatment
The treatment of Acne involves a series of maneuvers that will basically help to keep the skin free from dust and dirt. The people with oily skin are observed to be more prone to acne, rather than the ones with the dry skin types. This is so, because the oiliness of the skin attracts dust and dirt from the environment, which along with the skin’s own dead cells, blocks the sweat pores on the skin giving birth to blackheads and whiteheads. So the first and the foremost basic need is to keep your skin clean and free from the excess oil.
It is at this point, where the concept of acne care crosses over to anti aging skin care. Basically to keep the skin clean, it needs to be washed with a mild exfoliating agent, cleansed with deep pore milk, and lastly toned with the help of a good astringent. Even the perquisite for Anti aging skin care too, is to follow the basic step of cleansing toning and moisturizing, before one applies any serum or cream that fight signs of aging on the skin. This is the reason why the treatment is sometimes referred to as the acne anti aging skin care – as it tackles with both the problems at the same time.
It’s working…really!
Most of the people are of the opinion that it works. However, the results of the acne control would be visible much sooner than the results of reversing the signs of aging. Hence one should be prepared to wait for it, as it’s no magic or miracles that would happen overnight. The earliest result that you can see is the difference in the skin texture and its suppleness. It would be take around four weeks after you have started the treatment.
The acne anti aging skin care should usually be adopted when the skin has just started showing the signs of dryness, fine wrinkles around the eyes and mouth, enlargement of pores, pigmentation and so on. Which are termed as the signs of aging. When one starts adopting the acne anti aging skin care treatment around 35-40 years of age; the results shown would be dramatically obvious, and at the same time it would prevent further deterioration.
It would be best to start the acne anti aging skin care around 25 years of age, when the skin has just started to experience the internal damage, which might not be visible from outside. But around this time everything from the collagen layer, the pores, to the texture of the skin – everything starts to change. However, five to ten years later the impact of the care would be noticeable.
SUMMARY
The best way is to take good care of your skin by following the basic steps of skin care, from early age so that the damage done is comparatively less and the treatment would do further good ,if any needed.
