Surgery is scary. It’s expensive, there’s a chance you won’t ever heal, and it can make you feel a lot of emotions. As with any big change in your life, there’s also the fear of it not working.
As always, surgery is not for everyone, but for those who truly need it and can’t stand the thought of it. I have been dealing with acne for over a year now, and I hate it. I used to think that I had to get rid of it, but I’m just not willing to do that. If it were just a cosmetic thing, I could do it by myself, but I don’t like the idea of someone else being the one to do it.
Im sure you can relate to this a little bit. Acne is a very stubborn skin disorder that takes a long time to clear up. It is a very hormonal disorder, and one of the side effects of hormonal changes is acne, so this is something, unfortunately, that we all have to deal with at some point. We can blame it on the hormones, or we can blame it on the acne or both.
As someone who was once in the same boat as you, I know how frustrating it is to have acne. Its a weird thing to have. If you have acne, it’s not just a skin condition, it’s your body. Your facial expressions and actions are all different due to the hormonal changes that you often experience when you have acne.
It’s not all due to hormones though. A big part of it is genetics. People with a lot of acne tend to be more sensitive to the sun’s UV rays (which cause the breakouts) and this is something that is quite common among people with acne.
As a result people with acne tend to have very oily skin and acne occurs when your skin is extremely dry. This can also happen, if you have oily skin, when you don’t have enough water. So what is the solution? A quick solution is to apply a mild skin moisturizer and stay hydrated to avoid further breakouts.
The solution is to apply a mild skin moisturizer and stay hydrated to avoid further breakouts. This is something you will need to learn to do as a consumer. For acne sufferers, this may be hard to do. As a first step, try applying a moisturizer which acts as a barrier between your skin and the sun. If your normal moisturizer does not do this, you may need to add a moisturizer that has a higher SPF rating.
If your skin is sensitive to the sun, you will need to stay away from the sun for several days after your moisturizer is applied to avoid the breakouts. This is because the sun’s rays can penetrate the skin and cause further breakouts.
For those who don’t want to take the risk of breaking out, you can buy a sunless tanning bed. These are safe, non-irritating, and can be used in a tanning gym or at home.
The big problem with sunless tanning is that your skin absorbs too much of the sun’s rays. Over time, that can lead to sun damage, which is what we’re trying to avoid. The reason that sunscreen is recommended is because the UV rays are damaging to the skin and can cause skin cancer.
