Most people affected by acne at some time or the other hope that there is a topical acne treatment that will cure their acne overnight. But is there actually such a miracle cure available in the market?
As we all know, topical acne treatments come in the form of gels, lotions or liquids or powders and creams which are to be applied superficially and not swallowed like tablets and pills. These topical acne treatments can either be bought over the counter or procured against a doctor´s prescription.
The most popular but not necessarily the most effective acne treatments are as follows. Benzoyl Peroxide successfully opens up the blocked pores of the sebum gland and destroys acne bacteria thereby reducing the symptoms of acne. Tazortene; an antibiotic that works as an anti-inflammatory and antibacterial medication to treat acne includes Erythromycin, Azelaic, Clindamycin and Sulfacetamide Retinoids have been known to open up the blocked pores of the sebum glands and also effectively treat blackheads and whiteheads. This category includes Tretinion under the brand names like Retin-A®, Avita® and Stevia-A®.
A number of medicines are also available as a combination of two or more drugs such as topical benzoyl peroxide combined with erythromycin (Benzamycin ®) or erythromycin combined with topical retinoid (Stievamycin®)
Do Topical Acne Treatments actually work?
It has been found that, after years of experiments and trials with all the possible topical acne treatments that are available, it is impossible to name even one topical treatment that can cure acne permanently. The reason for this is very simple. All these topical treatments can lessen the acne symptoms to a certain extent but are not taking the holistic natural approach of first curing the internal problems .Once the internal problems are identified and cured, the external manifestations will automatically disappear.
However severe or widespread your acne is ,if you follow the holistic method by ridding your body of both the internal and the external causes of acne instead of just applying ointments on the surface, you can be sure that the acne will not recur.
