Acne treatments for men

When the topic of good, healthy and clear skin comes before us, we consider only women. As if, women are the only ones who suffer from skin problems. It should be noted that men are equally affected by acne. It true that there is huge difference between the skins of men and women but the methods of curing and preventing acne are the same. The main cause of acne in men is the over production of androgen, a hormone that activates the oil glands of the skin to produced oil. Excess of androgen results in excess of oil production by oil glands of skin, resulting in acne. Men are more prone to acne than women due to two main reasons are:
More androgen production

Oilier and thicker skin

Another acne-producing factor in men can be their shaving ways following points will help men get rid of their acne

Cleanse and exfoliate your skin regularly, twice a day. Get a good quality cleansing and exfoliating face wash for this purpose. U can have a separate exfoliator and use it twice a week. Exfoliating your skin will remove dead cells that are frequently formed in men’s skin and are the second main cause acne. Do not over exfoliate your skin.

Use a moisturizer. Use products specifically made “for men”. Moisturizing lotions for men are available in market very easily. Use an oil-free moisturizer. Use moisturizer after shaving and exfoliating not after every face wash.

Shave in a roper way. Shaving is a huge burden for men therefore, they try to get rid of this job quickly and adopt carelessness while shaving. Shaving in a wrong way can stimulate the problem of acne even in people who have never faced it. Because acne is related to the hair follicles in the skin. Always use a very sharp blade to shave away the hairs. Do not ever apply pressure while shaving. After-shave should be alcohol-free.

Home remedies are even very effective for men. When it comes to men do not think that mild ways will not treat, it is just a misconception. However, they ingredients to treat men’s acne are different. Mix baking soda and water and make a paste. Apply in night on the affected area. Keep overnight. Rinse with fresh water in the morning, after this steam up your face with hot damp towel to open up the pores and wash with your face wash. Moisturize at the end. Repeat after two days for a month. The results will definitely be positive.

The diet affects the skin both in men and in women equally. Certain foods like saturated oils, vegetable oils, certain dairy products like butter and cheese activate certain hormones, which result in acne production on body. Without the avoidance of such foods, acne cannot be treated. Drink plenty of water, about ten glasses a day. Have vegetables and fruits. Have milk but low in fat or with zero fat because milk even activates the production of acne. You can have yogurt.
