Do’s and Don’ts for acne!

If you have acne, keep your hands off the infected area :
Don’t play with acne. Don’t pick/squeeze acne. When you have acne, intense inflammation on your facial skin exists. Also, there is the loss of collagen. Collagen is the protein fiber, one of the components of skin which gives skin its elasticity. When you pick on your pimples, it can lead to further inflammation of the skin. It also leads the bacteria and pus in your pimple go deep down into your skin resulting in more loss of collagen which means even deeper scars on your face. Moreover, if you expose them to the sun, their healing process will slow down and the scars will get darker. So, avoid the sun. If it’s essential to go out in sun, use sunscreen to guard your skin and also cover yourself with hat, umbrella or clothes. 

Lemon juice for acne

Lemon is a natural bleach. Vitamin C in lemon helps in rebuilding collagen. When you use lime juice on your acne scars, the spots get lighter day by day. Lemon juice is an excellent skin lightening agent. The acid in the lemon juice helps in the brightening of the skin. This also helps in making scarring less visible. It can, in fact, fade away freckles and lighten the dark scars faster. Not only scars, if you have swollen pimples, lemon juice can help reduce its redness too. Take a fresh lemon. Squeeze the juice out.  Apply this juice directly on your scars with fingertips or a cotton ball, leave it for ten minutes and wash it off with water. Do this once a day repeatedly for two to three weeks. You will be able to see a change in the scarring.  If you want, you can also mix honey with your lemon juice to make it some more effective in reducing the acne scars. We hope you like this technique for facial scarring remedies.

Aloe vera

Aloe Vera, not only soothes swollen skin but also helps in regenerating damaged tissues boosting the healing process.

You’ll see a gel-like substance beneath its green outer cover. Use this gel for your scars.  Leave it for about half an hour and then wash off. We hope you like this technique for facial scarring remedies.
