What is Acne?

The body secretes a fatty substance called sebum on the surface of the skin, which is essential for skin hydration. Sebum is produced by glands, the sebaceous glands, which are found at the invisible end of the hairs.

The sebaceous glands may produce too much sebum and cells block the duct through which it is secreted on the surface of the skin. The clogging of the pores promotes the growth of bacteria that cause inflammation and give rise to acne pimples.

Acne appears mostly on the neck andacne on face, but also on the shoulders, back and arms. From a small red pimple to a very painful cyst, it’s important to get rid of acne.

मुंहासे क्या है?(Acne meaning in Hindi)

शरीर त्वचा की सतह पर सीबम नामक एक वसायुक्त पदार्थ को स्रावित करता है, जो त्वचा के जलयोजन के लिए आवश्यक है। सीबम का उत्पादन ग्रंथियों, वसामय ग्रंथियों द्वारा किया जाता है, जो बालों के अदृश्य छोर पर पाए जाते हैं।

वसामय ग्रंथियां बहुत अधिक सीबम का उत्पादन कर सकती हैं और कोशिकाएं नलिका को अवरुद्ध करती हैं जिसके माध्यम से यह त्वचा की सतह पर स्रावित होता है। छिद्रों का दबाना बैक्टीरिया के विकास को बढ़ावा देता है जो सूजन का कारण बनता है और मुँहासे pimples को जन्म देता है।

मुंहासे ज्यादातर चेहरे और गर्दन पर, बल्कि कंधों, पीठ और बाजुओं पर भी दिखाई देते हैं। एक छोटे से लाल दाना से लेकर बहुत दर्दनाक सिस्ट तक।

Natural remedies for Acne

Tomato or lemon

The tomato is an antioxidant that helps to get rid of acne, but it is also a shock ally to fight against acne pimples that sometimes disfigure us – especially when placed on the nose. For this direction, it’s totally simple: cut a tomato (preferably organic) into slices and apply them to your face for twenty minutes. Rinse it off with lukewarm water. Your skin is healthy and clean!  

Apple cider vinegar

We often talk about apple cider vinegar in natural remedies or grandmother’s recipes. Normal is an ideal product that cleanses the area to be treated. With the help of a cotton ball, place a few drops on the pimples or the area affected by acne. Let it sit and then rinse it off with lukewarm water.

A treatment based on green clay

If you choose superfine powdered clay for acne on the face, mix it with water (with a wooden spoon and not stainless steel, this is important). When the consistency is smooth and pasty enough, apply it to the pimples. 

Let stand until the clay is completely dry (the clay cracks and becomes lighter) then remove by rinsing with lukewarm water.

Watch your general lifestyle

If we can treat locally, it would be even more beneficial to eradicate some bad habits to hunt acne durably! Try a less fatty diet: less cold meats, less cheese, less chocolate (accept the dark chocolate, which is high in cocoa). 

Cigarettes and alcohol are not recommended if you want to end acne! For beautiful skin, do not forget to remove your makeup carefully or wash your face every evening.

What is the link between acne and stress?

One of the most common acne causes are stress can also trigger an acne breakout by increasing the production of sebum. The latter accumulates, clogs the pores, and creates pimples on the face, neckline, back…

Furthermore, poorly managed stress does not facilitate the healing process; on the contrary, it can turn mild acne into severe acne.

How important is controlling stress?

The skin is the mirror of our health, of our moods. Psychological stress impacts the health of our skin in general. It promotes acne, just as it causes other skin diseases such as eczema, psoriasis, herpes … even hair loss in patches, called alopecia areata.

How to manage stress?

The solutions to de-stress are so simple that they are taken lightly: take off your shoes to improve blood circulation, rest, take a relaxing bath … without forgetting to eat well.

In short, the idea is to change your lifestyle to de-stress. But the main goal is to get rid of both stress and acne for peace of mind
