The Best Treatment for Acne Vulgaris - TCA Skin Peels-Used by Plastic Surgeons Everywhere |
|
|
Acne vulgaris (acne) is a condition, popular with teens and
young adults, that is characterized by red, inflamed bumps and
patches. These bumps and patches are formed by overactive
sebacious glands (usually due to hormonal imbalances), high skin
pH, oil, and basteria that thrive in these conditions. This acne
can be worsened by summer heat, improper cleaning, itching and
picking at the bumps (they are not pimples and will only get
worse when picked at), pH imbalance, bad nutrition, etc...
By changing our habits we can improve this condition. Using mild
soaps and cleansers will prove less irritating. Eating a well
balanced diet will average out the condition and slowly improve
it. And we all know not to pick at acne postules and bumps, but
to stop it and possibly cure it we have to get to the source
deep in the skin.

creams and solutions
are at best minimally effective and can further irritate the
condition. We need to get several layers down to the source, the
bacteria, inflamation, and the sebacious glands where acne forms.
Plastic surgeons know that glycolic and salicylic peels are
better than hydrogen peroxide treatments, but they will not
reach the source. This is where plastic surceons and doctors use
TCA peels (trichloroacetic acid) which is a deeper peel to reach
the source, change the skin pH (which kills off the bacteria -
they cannot survive in high acidity conditions), and increase
skin regeneration by sloughing off several layers. TCA peels
have been clinically prove to treat and cure acne better than
any other treatment (including lasers and Accutane) without any
of the horrible side effects).
TCA peels used to be something only the wealthy could afford,
