It is said that 50 is the youth of old age! So, beware! You may confront some of the problems that you encountered as a young lad! Do not tell the youngster sitting next to you, undergoing the torment of an acne attack, that it was such a casual problem for you, when you had it, even though it was not! You may have a second attack of acne (precisely speaking acne rosacea) soon! It might have reached the top-most layer of your skin!
Conquering acne is an ongoing process. It should be the part of your daily life, just like brushing the teeth, or going to the saloon for a hair-cut! Never rest, by thinking that acne is the thing of the past for you- that stage is gone! So, it's better to have a full fledged knowledge of old age acne beforehand.
First things first, what causes acne rosacea? Nothing is definitely known. But something can be said about it authoritatively. It is generally believed those who had acne agony in their youthful time, will in all probability may have to go through that experience again in their later years. If you have a family history of rosacea, your troubles are compounded. It has something to do with your ethnic background also.
Next, what could be the indications of the oncoming second attack of acne? Dry, rough, scaly skin, wrinkling, itching, loss of elasticity of the skin, premature aging, enlarged pores, irregular sebaceous gland production, dandruff, split/peeling nails, poor night-vision, burning and itching eyes, thickening of cornea, skin slow to heal and grow and many others.
Herbal masks could be one of the best anti-acne treatments in such a condition. The formulations of the herbal masks should be appropriate to the type of your skin and judging this is not a big problem. Any dermatologist will assist you in determining it. There are many types of masks, but basically their action fall into three categories. They extract dirt from deep in the skin, preventing or eliminating blackheads and acne. They nourish by providing vitamins and minerals and rejuvenate by refining pores, healing scarring, evening out the color tone, soothing and moisturizing the skin. They can also stimulate the deepest layer of the skin to make healthy new growth.
Some skins have allergenic reactions. If you have any kind of skin problem, all soaps should be avoided. Soap destroys the natural protective mantle of the skin and removes beneficial bacteria, allowing those that cause odor and infections to proliferate.
So, do not worry much about acne rosacea. Come on, you had already have faced such a situation in life before, though the nomenclature was different! Therefore, be confident. But not so confident, to ignore your dermatologist, altogether! Do consult him, if you have the first symptoms of rosacea, in spite of all the precautions that you took!
