Obagi Skin Care knows that although skin is a wonderful thing to have – it does have a tendency to throw us some curve balls occasionally
An obvious benefit of skin is that it protects our bodies’ internal organs from harmful elements like dirt, insects, bites, toxic chemicals, nasty weather, and the like, and it certainly is more attractive than what’s underneath.
When skin is healthy it’s nice to look at, but when it’s diseased, it can not only affect you physically, but more painfully can cause stress and social problems.
Like the common cold, acne and similar skin diseases can be treated and covered up, and there are many Obagi products to assist in this, but cannot really be cured. The best treatment is prevention and knowledge about what makes your skin happy, so that you can avoid skin care enemies and breakout triggers.
The real cause of acne can vary from individual to individual, but some factors can be stated with relative certainty:
1. Acne occurs when pores or hair follicles become blocked or clogged.
2. There are basically 4 types of acne manifestations: whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, and nodules.
3. Acne can appear pretty much anywhere on the skin, though it causes the most concern when it shows up on the face. The worst forms of acne break out, however, on the chest and back, and most commonly on males rather than females because of hormonal differences.
4. There are many common myths and untruths about acne, rosacea, and other skin care problems.
Some acne myths include “you’ll outgrow it, so leave it alone”, “being out in the sun helps acne”, “acne problems are directly or indirectly proportionate to sexual activity”, “acne visits dirty people”, “acne is contagious”, and too many more to list in this short article.
The sad thing is that belief in the myths can be devasting, in that proper treatment is avoided, and lifestyle changes that don’t need to be made can take away pleasure unnecessarily.
For example, many people believe that they have a particular allergy to say, maybe, chocolate and that it causes breakouts. However, in reality they succumb to the temptation and have “just a little” and this induces a stress situation and then stress out waiting for the red spots, and sure enough they would appear.
The good news is that it is a treatable condition, the bad news, is that what works for one doesn´t necessarily mean it will work for you. Obagi treatments and systems, particularly the Obagi Clenziderm System have an enviable reputation and excellent results in treating acne.
Obagi Clenziderm M.D. Acne Therapeutic System for normal to oily skin is a three-step regimen that’s easy to use and gentle on your skin. It’s everything you need to be acne free.
System includes: Obagi Daily Care Foaming Cleanser (4 fl. oz.) to sweep away bothersome dirt and oils to reveal lighter and brighter skin, Obagi Pore Therapy (4 fl. oz) to purify and clear your pores, and Obagi Serum Gel (1.8 fl. Oz.) to deliver Benzoyl Peroxide deep into your pores where the acne starts.
