Another old wives tale that has been debunked is the belief that there is a direct cause and effect link between foods such as chocolate and the incidence and severity of acne lesions. An avoidance of such foods may be healthful for other reasons, but avoiding chocolate or other fatty foods will not guarantee an acne remedy. Eat healthfully, for the sake of your body's health, but don't expect dietary considerations to totally remove the scourge of acne.
As the name suggests, a blackhead extractor helps the person extract or pull out the blackhead from the skin surface. But take care - while extracting, utmost care should be taken because the lesion may erupt leading to bleeding and pus coming out of it. The act may also push the infection deeper down into the skin and when that happens the tissues may also get affected. Before extracting the blackhead, it is a good idea to boil some water and moisten the affected portion of the skin. This will also sanitize the area.
Dermatologists recommend any product should have low concentrations of the active ingredient benzoyl peroxide (no more than 5.5 parts per hundred) if there is an adverse reaction; if a reaction occurs, a cleaner or cream containing alpha hydroxy acid should be safe. It is not always possible to find an acne skin care product that works first time; if nothing you use is effective then speak to your dermatologist for advice. There are benefits of seeing your doctor or dermatologist, they can prescribe you with a prescription for treatments not available over the counter, for example a course of antibiotics.
