I offer many services to help teen skin that is congested, oily, and suffering from acne
including acne facials and laser treatments that deep cleanse pores and corrects skin resulting in a clear, blemish-free complexion.
Due to hormonal changes, it is common for many teenagers to struggle with various types of skin issues. Acne, cysts, pustules, papules, blackheads and more can take a toll on a teens’ self-confidence. Whether or not teenage skin has acne, it is important to start young with good skin care habits.
Bacteria breeds in oil and because teenagers tend to produce more oil (especially from ages 15-18), it’s important to keep it off the skin to prevent more blemishes. If possible, wash your skin 2x a day to keep pores clean.
While this may seem obvious, it is imperative that a teen (and even adults) understand that although breakouts cannot always be avoided, you CAN control what happens once they occur. An abundance of bacteria live on our hands. It is extremely important NOT to touch your face.
The truth is, a pimple or blemish usually lasts 5-7 days, but the red or dark scar from picking can linger for weeks – or even months.
Whether your teen is suffering from blemishes, whiteheads or an acne breakout, the best place to start is with a good deep pore cleansing facial. This helps to remove impurities such as bacteria, within the pores and then work on reducing inflammation.
Teens have extra sensitive skin so it’s important to use products specifically formulated to avoid redness, dryness & irritation. Most cleansers and toners formulated for problem skin contain strong detergents and alcohols as they are designed to dry out breakouts.
Purchase cleansers that are labeled ‘sulfate-free’ and avoid the ingredients Sodium Laureth (or Lauryl), Sulfate, and Ammonium Laureth Sulfate.
Synthetic fragrances are the #1 cause of allergic reactions so be sure to avoid using products with ingredients listed as “fragrance” or “parfum”.
