How to get rid of acne and acne scars
I know that there are situations in life way more complicated and way more sad than dealing with acne. However, sometimes, it seems like there is nothing more frustrating than acne and acne scars. In my case, when I struggled with acne in my teen years all the way to my mid twenties, I felt unseen and plain out ugly.
Unfortunately in our teenage years, we are surrounded by people who are also struggling to navigate life just as we are. Sadly we don’t see their struggles because we are so blinded by the names they call us or the words they use to describe us.
Life seemed very complicated when I was a teenager. I am so glad that I’ve got a different perspective now.
How did I get rid of my acne
The honest truth is that I had had it with the constant pimples. Something had to be done and I was not going to accept a face full of acne and acne scars for the rest of my life. I made a decision and I stayed committed until I saw the results that were pleasing to my eyes.
I understand that there are people who struggle with serious acne issues and the reasons are deeper and more complicated than surface level. If you fall in this category, I am so sorry you have to go through this. I know how hard it is.
For those of you who struggle with acne here and there but you also have hyperpigmentation from old acne scars, I’ve got some tips for you. However, you must make a decision and stay committed.
what causes acne
In adolescents, we know it’s the hormonal changes and the over productive sebaceous glands that are the culprits. In older people, it’s many things but the main culprits are sebaceous glands and clogged pores. People with both dry and oily skin will still get acne breakouts due to clogged pores.
Additionally, diet also plays a role in acne breakouts.
