The most common disorders among young people are acne. Mostly, it occurs at the age of 12 to 24 years and it is known to cause embarrassment and great concern to most teenagers. This kind of disorder may be treated naturally. Acne is a kind of inflammatory condition of the sebaceous glands and hair follicles that appear largely on the face, chest, neck and shoulders. The sebaceous glands produce too much oil. This problem may be also the cause of hormonal disturbances during puberty. Acne or pimples result from the blockage of oil glands that re present at the base of the hair follicles causing the formation of pustules. Over-secretion combined with dust and dirt from the environment makes an ideal ground for microorganism.

To make your face free from acne, you must try to consider these herbal remedies:

Aloe Vera- it contains antibacterial properties that calm the skin. It also fights bacteria and reduce inflammation. This property can also boost the immune system by reducing infections and regenerate skin. To do this, cut an Aloe Vera stalk and directly apply to the acne scar.

Dandelion Root- it is rich in nutrients that can help remove acne scars. It detoxifies the skin from toxins and excessive hormones.

Tea Tree Oil- it is a powerful antiseptic and antifungal treatment that can battle bacteria. When the ea tree oil is undiluted, it may cause skin irritation, blistering and redness when applied on the skin. The concentration should be 5% tea tree oil gel and 95% water to make it effective.

Lavender Essential Oil- It has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, calming effect, prevents scarring and promotes wound healing. Here’s how to make a treatment for acne: When you mix it with water, mix 1 part of the lavender oil with 10 parts of purified water. This will help in reducing acne. It can also reduce stress and can help reduce pimple production. But if you are allergic to it, don’t use it.

Burdock Root- it is also known to treat skin problems. Its main ingredients are arcigen, calcium, flavonoid, chlorogenic acid, iron, lactone, mucilage, tannin, taraxosterol, resin, inulin, potassium, and polyacetylenes. It helps remove toxins in the body and may result to reduction of acne and pimples.

Yellow Dock – it is an herb that has properties that can improve circulation and clean the body from toxins. It is more effective when blended with burdock and dandelion for cleansing.

For dental health, take a look at oramd, hydrofloss and therabreath.

Acne is a complex condition. The treatment results may vary depending on the case of every individual. It is still important to consult your doctor before taking any treatment. Sometimes it is quite tricky to find the best treatment. It is still best to keep your face clean at all times by washing it with warm water and a mild soap.

Having facial scars can be very frustrating than others because no one likes to have this kind of scar since you will see them every time you look yourself in the mirror.  When others stare at you, you may feel fear because all they see is a scar on your face as reminder to yourself of an injury or accident you have before.

Usually you need to stitches the wound if you have injury or surgery, you are likely to get some scar even it is small and barely visible.  Another cause of facial scar is from acne especially if you picked at your skin or popped blemishes.

Prevention is the simplest way out to facial scarring.  You have to be certain to take good care of your face as the skin of your face is very sensitive and can be prone to scarring. Environmental factors such as the sun and wind can also blemishes and damage your face, So good  hygiene like moisturized, sheltered from the sun and keep your face clean can go a long to preventing facial scars. You still have options if you have already scars on your face, you can reduce the appearance of the scars or completely remove face scars.

The beauty industry has made creams, lotions and oils that can help you to remove face scars.  A Doctor can issued a prescription lotion or cream that is stronger than what available in the counter.  You have to look for products that contain aloe vera and vitamin E to help stimulate the production of healthy new skin cells.

You can experience office procedures such as dermabrasion (a process that removes the top layer of skin, allowing healthy, smooth skin underneath to replace it) or collagen injections to remove face scars if the scar is more visible, or these kinds of products aren’t working. Dermabrasion is very effective to raise the scars.  And to contribute to your skin’s elasticity, collagen injection is needed to encourage the production of collagen but you have to do this repeated regularly as collagen injections do wear off.

The process may need to be repeated once the skin is allowed to heal totally. It is suggested that for facial scars you stick to allowing your doctor do it in the office although this can be done at house.
