Acne Quick Cure: Fact Or Fiction?

by Barry Crewse

There have probably been a thousand books written as to why we have acne. They all try to address the usual questions like, where does it come from and how do I get rid of it! When it comes to treatments, which ones truly work and which ones are truly rubbish?

For most people, treating acne has meant only one thing, medication. It's the only main approach that medical science has really taken. Treatment by medications and drugs is the norm but is it possible to treat acne in a really natural way?

Most researchers will tell you that due to the underlying causes of acne, most natural approaches to treatment have a very low success rate. My research indicates that this is not true at all.

Yes, there are many different causes that can be associated with an outbreak of acne and it is vitally important that before any treatment program that you check with your physician or dermatologist to determine what they consider to be the root cause but natural treatments do exist and many of them are quite effective.

Of course, finding out which natural products will be most effective in your fight against acne you must also be willing to commit yourself to a plan of action and follow through with that plan.

Your plan of action is really no different than if you were taking prescription medication as even with doctor prescribed meds you still must follow direction and be persistant or you will not be successful in your fight.

Remember, there is no cure for acne. It can only be treated and controlled. So no matter which plan of action you decide upon you may be surprised at the amount of control you achieve by trying some of the most advanced natural products on the market.

Nearly most of the underlying issues you may be having which are responsible for your acne outbreak may be oily skin, blocked pores, inflammation, swelling and pain. These can all be treated naturally and safely.

You must also consider your diet. There may be foods involved that are not necessarily a root cause of your acne but may be having peripheral or underlying effects which magnify your acne symptoms. More often than not, acne is caused by a variety of different issues.

Environment can also play an important role. Exposure to different elements in our surroundings as well as stress can have an effect on acne as well. By knowing how to deal with these factors in conjunction with an all herbal approach can have a dramatic effect on the outcome.

There have been many books and products sold over the most recent years making claims of all sorts on curing your acne forever in 5 minutes. The truth is as I stated earlier that acne cannot be cured. That is just the facts and no product whether chemical or natural can treat it effectively in 5 minutes or even 24 to 48 hours.

It is not unusual though from the reports that I have received that many people are seeing results in as little as 72 hours. Let me make myself absolutely clear on this point though. They are not completely acne free within this time frame but dramatic results are being seen. Within a week or two these natural treatment plans when followed as directed are having as much if not more effects on successfully controlling acne as many of the high powered chemical treatments being prescribed every day.

If your treatment plan is not working and you find yourself struggling with treating your acne then I would strongly suggest doing a little investigation into what kind of natural acne treatment plans are out there. Although many people pass off the idea that natural treatment is not effective, a great number of those who have tried it are finding great success.

No matter which type of treatment plan you are on it is very important to consult with your doctor. Especially if you are taking prescribed medications. Never switch your treatment or discontinue your medication without first deciding on which natural plan you would like to persue and only then get the advice from your physician which can help you make the switch to natural medications.
