Analyze Skin and Severity of Acne Before Treatment

With various types of treatments available on the market, acne is now a curable disease. Acne treatment consists of steps for reducing sebum production, removing dead skin cells, and killing bacteria that are the primary reasons for causing acne. Treatment for Acne is provided through topical drugs and oral medications. Medication for every type of acne ailment is available in the market according to ones skin type and severity of acne.
Before choosing an acne treatment one should clearly understand his skin type. If the skin is oily, one can suitably use alcohol based solutions as they are hard in concentration and easily can reduce oil from skin. One should avoid moisturizer based solutions as acne is caused due to the clogging of oil in hair follicle and instead of treating; moisturizer based solutions can reverse their effect and increase the severity of the problem.
For acne treatment creams, foams and gels containing moderate moisturizer are best for normal to oily skin. Creams work more effectively as they are less greasy and quickly absorbed by skin. Gels should be selected, carefully; as some gel contains glycerin which enhances moistening effects thus increase severity of Acne.
