Ways To Treat Acne

Some Causes of Acne 

• Sweat can clog skin pores and lead to breakouts all over. 
• Tight fitting clothing traps sweat against the skin, leading to clogged pores and blemishes. 
• The notorious stress (some say that stress is just an excuse to unsolved health problems) 
• Hormones. 

 Ways To Treat Acne 

•  Wash your body daily with a salicylic acid based cleanser. Look for this ingredient on product labels.
• Shower daily and be sure to shower as soon as possible anytime you have been sweating - such as after playing sports, working outside or just being in the sun. After your shower, you can follow up by a body moisturizer that contains Alfa Hydroxy acid. This will exfoliate skin and help prevent breakouts, without drying skin out.
• At nighttime, apply an acne zapping gel or cream at the effected parts.

If your body acne is particularly bad and won't respond to this treatment after about a month, you will probably need to see a dermatologist.
