Awesome Cheap Ways for Acne Blemish Treatment
| By Dan Adlam There are many expensive ways to treat acne blemishes, and they don't necessarily always work. Cheap ways to remove acne blemishes are starting to become more common, and today we'll discuss two methods most commonly used to remove these nasty red blemishes. The first way to remove acne blemishes is with baking soda and apple cider vinegar. This treatment is actually a very old treatment from books of the past. Many people commonly use it today - success rates are average, but to buy baking soda and apple cider vinegar is very cheap, and you may be interested in trying it out. The second way to remove acne blemishes is the express way - by using chemical peels to gently remove the top layers of skin so fresh new layers of skin from below would become visible on the surface. Chemical peels aren't expensive. There are many sellers on the Internet trying to sell you chemical peels for a few hundred dollars, and doctors try to sell it for a few thousand dollars, but I've found $15 chemical peels that work just as well. So the first step: treating your acne blemishes with baking soda and apple cider vinegar (ACV). Since these are home remedies, there is no scientific proof for this home remedy helping out with acne blemishes. Baking soda supposedly works to soften top layers of skin over a period of time, so the top layer of skin would gently fall off. Baking soda and ACV does at times irritate the skin, so monitor how your skin reacts to this treatment. Make sure you wash each one off completely before applying the other. Remember the baking soda and vinegar experiments in elementary school before think about applying both at the same time. The first step is to apply baking soda to the skin. Wet your face. Next, take a little bit of baking soda and place it into your hand. Wet the baking soda, so it turns into a paste. Next, use the baking soda the same way you put on acne creams. Once the baking soda is spread out on your face, gently rub in a circular motion. Don't keep the baking soda on for more than a minute - some people keep it on for less than a few seconds - again, use this according to how your skin reacts. Wash it off when you're done. Apple Cider Vinegar has been known to help cure acne, and it also supposedly helps out with acne blemishes as well. Some people drink ACV, which helps with digestion. Apple Cider Vinegar has also been used as a weight loss product - they also come in pills. Apple Cider Vinegar stinks. Make sure to wash this stuff off completely, and use it in a well ventilated room. To apply apple cider vinegar, make a concentration of 30% apple cider vinegar to start off. If the concentration is too strong, it may be tough for your skin to handle. Apply the apple cider vinegar throughout the skin. The duration you should leave this stuff on is not definite - you can leave it on from a few seconds to a few minutes, depending on what is right for your skin. After, wash the apple cider vinegar off completely, and you're done. Following the baking soda and apple cider vinegar treatment could come other treatments, such as an egg white face mask, or you could just directly apply your acne creams. Use this treatment at your own risk, and remember to always make sure your skin isn't being damaged from this treatment. Chemical Peels You probably already heard of chemical peels and how they remove the top layers of skin so new skin from below would be visible. Chemical peels are safe to use, and are becoming much more popular than using lasers to treat skin problems. Healing times for chemical peels are much faster than lasers. There are so many benefits to using chemical peels, and you can use them regularly for a cheap price. Chemical peels definitely work faster than the apple cider vinegar and baking soda treatment, so I suggest you use chemical peels if you can. There are so many chemical peels out there today, but which one to buy? The Internet has many chemical peel products, but most of them are overpriced, because they offer fancy packaging. These cost a few hundred dollars to purchase. Doctors may perform the chemical peel procedure for you, costing a few hundred dollars to a few thousand dollars. But, you really don't need to spend this much, especially when you can purchase a chemical peel for just fifteen dollars. Also, chemical peels have worked wonders for people who currently have acne, including severe acne, so it's definitely worth the time to use them and to check them out. You will want to start out with an AHA peel or a light concentration TCA peel. These peels won't burn the skin, but will make the top layer of skin loose, so it would fall off over the period of a week. Start with mild concentrations, and slowly work your way up to peels that are stronger. You shouldn't need that strong of a peel in order to treat acne blemishes.
