Acne does not restrict to only appearing on our face. It can also appear on other parts of our body. There are many products out there in the market but there is only one effective body acne treatment out there which is to adopt the holistic way of healing acne.
Having acne on our body can be irritating and frustrating. First of all it is uncomfortable, painful, and unsightly. It also makes us feel more conscious about our choice of clothes to wear. Acne that appears on our body is due to the same reasons as facial acne.
Most of it is due to our bad diet and lifestyle. Having a bad diet that consists of processed food or foods that are high in sugar or fat content can cause chronic diseases to appear. One of them would be acne. Most people fail to get rid of their acne on their body because all they do is to apply cream to their acne and wishing that it would go away. However this is not the correct approach to take.
Applying creams and gels only deal with the surface of the problem. Body acne appears due to factors such as hormonal imbalance and excess sebum production that leads to inflammation in clogged pores. The creams are just trying to dry off the surface skin or kill the bacteria in the acne. However the root problems that causes acne are still in your body and hence acne will keep on reappearing. Just think about it, if you cut off the weed without plucking out the roots, the weed will keep on growing and destroy your garden. It is the same theory for acne too.
An effective body acne treatment would be altering your diet and lifestyle to help create a healthy body environment that acne cannot live in. To achieve this, you will have to be conscious of what you eat and eliminate foods that are causing you more harm than good.
Some food that weakens your body includes processed food that are ridden with chemicals, high sugar content food like snacks, refined carbohydrates like white bread and rice or food that are high in animal fats. It is hard to get rid of these foods once and for all and I recommend you to eliminate one group at a time. You can replace these foods with healthier alternatives such as fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds.
There are also some good habits that you should cultivate. Make it a habit to wash your clothes after every wear. It is also recommended that you wear looser clothing so that your skin will be able to breathe. Another tip would be to change your bed sheet frequently. Some people rarely change their bed sheet and they sleep on it without any clothes on. This can lead to body acne.
Effective body acne treatment does not only mean you are going to apply creams and gels on it. Doing so is not enough to cure your acne permanently. By altering your diet and cultivating good hygiene habits, body acne is going to be a history for you.
obviously wash those areas in the shower.. but eating a more healthy natural diet is also known to improve skin health
Hi! Many of the same things you do for your face can help your chest and back as well.
Wash your hair and use conditioner first, and do your face and body last. That way the conditioner won’t be left on your skin to clog the pours. You can also use your facial acne products on your chest and upper back. Or purchase a body wash specifically designed for body acne by Neutrogena or Clean and Clear.
Just like it’s recommended to change your pillow case frequently, and in severe cases nightly, you may need to step up your sheet changing regimen. Body oils can build up in the linens and become impacted in your pours while you sleep.
How about your pj’s? Do you wash those daily or wear them for a few nights? You may need to have a clean top nightly as just like the sheets, body oils and shloughed off cells can build up.
Just as it’s recommended to have a separate towel for your face, you may want to consider having one specifically for your upper back and chest. Body oils are thicker and more likely to clog the pours on your face, so when you get out of the shower and use the same towel every were you may end up spreading the oils. Having another for the more sensitive skin of your upper body may help as well.
Best of Luck!
