Acne Treatment

 

For most people acne is the most irksome part of skincare. Call them zits, pimples, spots or blemishes, acne can be distressing and annoyingly persistent. Acne is most common during adolescence, affecting more than 85% of teenagers, and frequently continues into adulthood. For most people, acne diminishes over time and tends to disappear, or at the very least decrease, after one reaches his or her early twenties.

 

Hormones likely play a role in the development of acne, making the condition most common in teenagers. Three factors that contribute to the formation of acne are:

 

1. Overproduction of oil (sebum)

 

2. Irregular shedding of dead skin cells resulting in irritation of the hair follicles of skin

 

3. Buildup of bacteria

 

The good news is that effective treatments for acne are available. Acne treatment for mild cases usually involves self-care measures, such as washing your skin daily with a gentle cleanser and using an over-the-counter topical acne cream. Acne treatment for severe cases usually includes one or more prescription medications. Once acne is under control, prevention strategies can help keep your skin clear of breakouts.

 

Teeth Whitening

 

A healthy body skin care is incomplete without a set of shiny white teeth. If your teeth are not so white and bright, you need not worry as there is a wide range of teeth whitening solutions available that you can work out with your dentist or even at your own.

 

Tooth whitening is defined as the process of removing stains and discolouration from teeth and improving their colour through a bleaching process to make them look “whiter”.

 

For heavily stained teeth significant tooth whitening can be achieved following a procedure as simple as a scale and polish from a dental hygienist. Most cosmetic dental practices offer a combination of in-surgery immediate teeth whitening and professional take-home tooth whitening kits with custom made trays. Both procedures are based on a bleaching process which uses a peroxide based compound which varies in strength (3-30% peroxide). The higher the concentration of peroxide in the compound the more powerful the bleaching compound is. This means it is more effective at whitening the teeth but at the same time has a greater potential to cause damage to the surrounding gum tissue and your lips.

 

Many dentists are of the opinion that professionally dispensed take-home whitening kits can produce the best results over a longer time scale. Take-home kits incorporate an easy-to-use lower-concentration peroxide gel that remains on the teeth for an hour or longer. The lower the peroxide percentage, the longer it may safely remain on the teeth. The gel is applied to the teeth using custom-made bleaching trays that resemble mouth guards.

 

These days, there are many different brands of professional teeth whitening systems each claiming to provide the best results depending on who you believe.
