Many people find it difficult to get rid of acne spots
Spots are left behind when pimples are gone. The skin is usually
reddish-brown which makes it look bad. Sometimes the ugly marks can
fade few months later after the pimples have gone. Others are stubborn
and will not fade unless you do something to get rid of acne
spots.
The sun is bad for your skin and can make the spots take longer to
fade. You can get rid of acne spots at home using some simple
methods. Other ways of clearing the spots can be done by a qualified
dermatologist using advanced medical care.
Here are some steps that can help you get rid of acne spots:
1. You can use skin care products that have alpha hydroxyl acids
which is good in shedding the old skin cells. The alpha hydroxide
acids help to bring out a healthier new skin. It works properly when
used as night cream.
2. Lemon juice has always been used to remove dark spots. It is an
effective way to get rid of acne spots. Citric acids found in lemon
works as natural skin exfoliate. Using an exfoliator can help you to
get rid of spots fast. You can simply squeeze the lemon juice from
fresh lemons or buy the lemon juice sold in your local store. If you
are using the fresh lemon, always dilute the juice with some water
before you apply it on your skin. You can use the lemon juice once in
two days if you have a sensitive skin. Changes can be visible after
two weeks.
3. You can consult a dermatologist for proper medication. One of
the most effective prescriptions for acne is Retin-A which works very
well and removes spots very fast but can only be obtained with the
doctor' prescription. The doctor gives you the Retin-A with the
strength appropriate for your skin. Too much use of the medication can
be harmful to your skin and you should never extend the time given by
your doctor. Retin-A is one of most effective ways to remove stubborn
acne spots but has to be done professionally.
4. Micro-dermabrasion is also a good way to remove spots on your
skin. For the best results, avoid doing this treatment at home. It
helps your skin to release more cells giving you a new beautiful
skin. Talk to a skin care expert or a dermatologist if you want to use
this method to get rid of spots.
