A Cure For Acne - Do Scientists Now Have a Breakthrough

I was reading online that in a national British newspaper, The Telegraph, it was claimed that Scientists believe they have found a breakthrough treatment for acne.

In the article, it was quoted that the drug, specifically named SMT D002, can actually reduce the flow of sebum. This fact is believed to be a significant cause( around 90 per cent) for the cause of acne. At present, the drug SMT D002, is in the form of a pill and is at present in use to treat a certain condition other than acne.

However the drug company has plans to turn the product into a cream form which will make it easier to use. Researchers believe it could become as effective a treatment as retinoic acid - form of vitamin A - which is currently used to treat moderate to severe cases.

However, it must be noted that Roaccutane, which is the most widely used form of retinoic acid, has unfortunately been linked to suicides that have occurred among acne sufferers. This was quoted in the article. SMT D002 produced no significant side-effects when volunteers took it in pill form. Around three in every 10 who were patients who took retinoic acid do not respond to this drug, leaving many sufferers with no effective treatment.

The spokesman for the company Summit Corporation, which is based in Oxford, said that it was turning the drug into a cream because it was likely to work more quickly. It added that because of commercial reasons, it would not reveal the name of the existing drug. Richard Storer, the company's chief scientist, said: "It is a major drug, but we cannot reveal its name or the condition it currently treats."

Do you want to get rid of Acne in one night. This is for sufferers who have very light form of acne, but will help those of moderate acne over a longer term. A light form of acne is when your skin has tiny zits, and also if your skin isn't swelled or red from the acne.

I am now going to tell you precisely what you can do in only one day to help lose your acne. When you awake and get up out of bed:. Drink if possible 2 glasses of water. This will help your body will be rid of all those damaging poisons. They call it "to help detoxify your system" After cleaning your face, apply tea tree oil should be used on your skin. Doing so will kill almost all of the bacteria's that cause acne.

It's vitality important to make sure that during the day your skin isn't too oily. This will help ensure your pores from getting clogged.

During the day you will find that your skin is probably going to feel quite oily. Before retiring to bed, I advise you to follow these simple tips of drinking 1-2 glasses of water.

Drinking water again helps detoxify your system and as well as the acne your overall health. Also apply on your skin some tea tree oil and last but not least have a good nights sleep. Good sleep will help your skin to repair itself and also make you feel better to cope with the stresses of life
