When over-the-counter topical medicines (ointments, lotions, etc) fail to work, people start to turn to other methods. Some people may not want to go through the hassle of waiting in line to see a doctor, in which case they turn to other commercially available remedies, such as the Zeno Acne device. But are such devices still a good alternative to seeing a doctor about controlling one's acne?

This little gadget could actually be considered high-tech, although it is quite easy to use. Some people may wish to pursue it as an alternative to oral medication. When in doubt, you may test the device before buying. People who are reluctant to purchase this product may order a trial unit first, so they may see firsthand how Zeno acne therapy works.

First, we'll have to explain how pimples are normally formed. Pimples are formed when bacteria - in particular the P.acne bacterium - is trapped inside the pores of the skin. The clogging occurs during an overproduction of sebum, which is a substance secreted by the human body when it experiences an "overdrive" of hormones, such as when one is a teenager, or when one is pregnant. Unable to escape, the p.acne bacterium is able to grow and multiply, causing the pores to become inflamed and to swell. This process of inflammation occurs within the pores, which means it actually happens beneath the skin.

Acne is often related to hormones. This so-called "hormone overdrive" is a natural state, which many of us experience in our lives, at one point or more. When inflammation in the pores takes place, we see a growth that is more commonly known as pimples, or acne. This is why in the case of severe acne, some dermatologists recommend hormone therapy. While this may be effective in controlling acne, it may also come with a number of unpleasant side effects, such as mood swings and changes in appetite.

On the other hand, oral medication may be the most effective - if not the only - method of controlling acne outbreaks, in the long run. If one is able to regulate one's hormone levels, there would be no need to apply treatment repeatedly. One can do away with heavy regular use of topical medicines and the Zeno device! However, this may only assure that acne is only controlled, not eliminated. In which case, one can still use acne treatments just for a little extra help.

In conclusion, oral or topical medication is still the first line of defense for people who suffer from a hormone imbalance, which produces severe acne. The Zeno acne system is only a quick fix, as it were. Consider the cost of purchasing and maintaining this product, before deciding if this is the right treatment method for you.

The Modern Lily Tomlin

I’m waiting in a conference room that smells like the corner of career aspiration and stale office carpet. The overly heavy and overly bitter receptionist has a voice that is piercing through the makeshift conference room with walls that only go up about 7 feet. Like an annoying hiccup, she keeps repeating “Good morning, Hudson. Your name? Hold please.” Over and over again. She is an extra large version of what the rest of the world has automated already.
