Getting rid of acne and acne scars?!NEED TO GET RID OF THEM BEFORE MAY 15?

my confirmation is coming up and i have loads of scne and acne scars. (mainly blackheads and white heads) how can i get rid of them? (before may 15) i know i have time, but i want to experiment.|||Following are four tips to help you get rid of acne overnight. Follow these easy steps and you will wake up to new skin!





(1) Apply ice directly to the affected area of skin. This is the top remedy for acne, especially if your acne causes your skin to swell. Not only will the ice eliminate swelling, it has also been known to get rid of the pimples as well, although you need to allow at least two days of icing the area in order to see this result.





(2) Apply toothpaste to the affected area. It might sound strange, but it works! Wash your face thoroughly with a gentle cleanser and pat dry. Then apply toothpaste to the acne areas and leave on for 20 minutes. You can then wash your face again and pat dry. Do this each evening right before you go to bed. You will be amazed when you wake up in the morning!





(3) Drink plenty of water. Because water is your body%26#039;s natural method of cleansing, it is imperative that you drink enough water to keep it cleansed. You will not believe what a difference you will see in your skin just by drinking pure water! You need at least two liters (64 ounces) each day.





(4) Exfoliate your skin! One of the biggest factors that cause acne is that your skin is not getting properly cleaned. Using a gentle exfoliation will rub away the dead skin and impurities, revealing only fresh, revitalized skin. It is recommended to exfoliate each evening for one week and then reduce usage to two nights a week thereafter.|||Below are some of the things that you should do to not only get rid of acne but also keep it away.





Tip #1- Try to maintain a clean skin as much as possible. By keeping your skin clean you are preventing dirt and bacteria from accumulating and clogging your pores. The best way to do that is to wash your face at least twice per day with a gentle wash that also contains salicylic acid to prevent your skin from drying out.





Tip #2- Do not attempt to pop your pimples. I know how tempting this can be but trust me it is much better to not to touch or try to pop your pimples. The reason is simple also; if you try to pop your pimples you will introduce microscopic dirt and bacteria from your fingers into the pimple which will make it worse.





Tip #3- Drink a lot of water daily. Water will naturally detoxify your body and flush out the build up of toxins that can cause acne and other diseases. It will also hydrate your skin and make it look glowing and beautiful.





Tip #4- Eat a lot of fruits and vegetables every day. This will help to build your immune system to help you fight of infections. At the same time you should try and avoid all types of fatty foods and too much sugary foods at least until your acne is gone.





Tip #5- Get enough rest. Lack of sleep can cause a build up of stress and stress is a main contributing factor to acne. So simple getting enough rest can have a major improvement on your skin.|||These treatments all have proven success rates with varying degrees of down time.


Microdermabrasion. This is a method that literally peels the top layer of skin off by using a number of different kinds of mechanical instruments. These tools are comparative to mini grinding machines, much like those found in a wood working shop.


Laser Treatment. Laser treatment is now the treatment of choice for getting rid of acne scars. Laser therapy removes the skin layer by layer, and treatment can be completed in as little as one session. There are a number of laser therapies available for different types of scarring.


Chemical peels. Think of a very strong exfoliation solution and you have chemical peels. They work in the same fashion as dermabrasion. Chemical solutions are applied to the skin and the peel (the chemicals) dissolve skin cells on the top layer and by doing so promote growth of new tissue.


Dermal Fillers. This is a popular treatment commonly for wrinkle reduction and lip fullness. However it works well with minimizing scar tissue by injecting collagen underneath depressed scar tissue to raise the area up to the level of healthy skin. This is effective temporary remedy, but unfortunately have to be repeated frequently as the collagen tends to dissipate in the body over time.


Punch excision. Surgery is used for scars that are very deep and don%26#039;t respond to conventional methods. Punch excision is a method of surgery that utilizes a punch biopsy tool to %26quot;punch out%26quot; the scar tissue and the skin is sutured back together. In time healthy skin will replace the area of the old scar tissue.
