Youth Acne
Acne can plague us at any age but during adolescence and puberty is the time to start battling it. Pre-teens are just learning how to take care of themselves and then BAM!, puberty kicks in and hormones turn their faces into an oily mess. Chances are that your child will have some form of acne during this time.
It is so very important to have your child on the right routine ASAP! Washing twice per day with the proper cleanser for their skin type and applying the proper lotion will keep most acne at bay and will lessen the chances of life long scarring.
Most drugstore acne products are formulated to dry-out the skin; this is not a long-term solution. In most people, this over-dries the skin, which stimulates oil production and creates MORE ACNE.
Addressing acne as early as possible will lessen the need for stronger medications, lasers and chemical peels later. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE! Fill out our skin-type questionnaire for your child and get them on the right track.
