Here’s good news for acne sufferers

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - Most often than not, acne is the main culprit for bad, blemished skin. In fact, the American Academy of Dermatology reports that nearly 85 percent of people experience acne at some point in their lives.

Acne is mainly influenced by genetics and hormones while other factors that include stress, medications, diet, cosmetics, excessive rubbing or irritation, and a hot, humid climate, can cause acne to flare.

Hormones are the primary trigger of acne. During puberty, everyone begins to produce hormones called androgens, which cause the sebaceous or oil glands to enlarge, a natural part of the body’s development. Even though hormones play a vital role in your overall well-being, whether you are 15 or 55, hormones are also to blame for your breakouts.

Fortunately for acne sufferers, Proactiv Solution is now readily accessible nationwide. It treats most forms of acne breakouts, including blackheads and whiteheads. It first exfoliates the skin by removing the oils, dirt and other clogging residues, and then with proprietary microcrystal benzoyl peroxide, penetrates pores fast to deliver instant acne-fighting action.

Even though there’s no cure for acne, Proactiv Solution is mild enough to use every day to treat acne safely and effectively by attacking it at the source of dead skin cells and bacteria that clog the pores. Then, the combination of medicine penetrates deep into the skin to destroy bacteria and reduce inflammation and clears skin without the drying, peeling, or the chemical smell found in other products.

The Proactiv Combination Therapy acne management system combines finely milled, prescription-grade benzoyl peroxide with sulfur and soothing botanicals like allantoin, panthenol, aloe and chamomile. Together these ingredients gently exfoliate skin, unplug pores, attack acne-causing bacteria, and soothe inflammation.

Proactiv Solution is the perfect skincare tool that will create positive results in a matter of weeks. In only three easy steps, your skin will dramatically improve: renewed, revitalized and repaired. In less than five minutes a day, it’s easy to make Proactiv an essential part of your daily skincare regimen, with either a 30-day or 60-day Proactiv kit with a full money-back guarantee and a personalized after-sales care through the Proactiv Skin Care Advisor Program.

With Proactiv, you get access to a team of skincare advisors on-call to answer your questions or concerns at (+632) 729-2222. The skincare advisors are available for a one-on-one consultation to help you achieve best results with Proactiv; answer any questions about product usage; help customize your Proactiv routine for your specific skin type; and assist with any additional skincare questions you may have.
