Acne Care Treatment: 4 More Tips For Acne Prevention

In contrast to Western trained dermatologists and doctors, Eastern medical professionals like the Indian Ayurvedic doctors and Chinese physicians prescribe lifestyle changes for acne care treatment. While undoubtedly effective in preventing acne, these changes are unpalatable and difficult to maintain in modern Western society.

Here are 4 relatively simple natural acne skin care techniques which I find to be very helpful:

  • Avoid oily foods, fried foods and barbequed foods. In general, avoid any food cooked in very high temperatures. Overseas Chinese friends tell me these foods are known as heaty foods, which are known to cause acne and other problems. A western-trained immunologist or nutritionist would probably have his own explanation for this, while a dermatologist would just scoff at this claim. All I know is: the time when I frequently ate out at Kentucky Fried Chicken, my acne became much, much worse. When I switched to eating pasta, noodles or sandwiches, my pimples started disappearing. Then I went to celebrate by eating barbequed chicken at Kenny Roger’s, and the acne came back.
  • Reduce stress. Some of my colleagues suffer outbreaks of acne when they come under more pressure at work. Their acne seems to disappear once things cool down at work again. I would suppose that this is linked to stress and the immune system. A good way to relieve stress would be to go for a massage. Or you could go play with your neighbor’s pet dog or cat instead.
  • Turn off your air-conditioner. One of my friends told me he no longer sleeps with the air-conditioner on because it causes his skin condition to become worse. I have not noticed this problem myself, so your mileage may vary…
  • Change of climate. An ex-colleague who suffered badly from acne went for an Alaskan cruise for his honeymoon. He came back with clear, smooth skin. He told me: “Yeah, after a few days on the ship admiring the icebergs, my skin started peeling. Hurt like hell at first. But all my pimples disappeared after that.”

Not all of these tips will work for you. But if you do not try them, you will never know if they will help to prevent your acne.
