Acne, uneven skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles, and sun damage can make you feel self-conscious about your appearance. But just because you weren’t born with perfect skin doesn’t mean you can’t try a few things to get a little closer to perfection.
Here are four treatments that could improve the appearance of your skin.
Dietary Changes for Almost Any Skin Problem
Today’s foods are fast, processed and filled with artificial everything. The processing and artificial ingredients put things in your body that can contribute to acne, uneven skin tone, dry skin, and many other skin problems. Adding more fresh fruits and veggies and eliminating more sugar, artificial colors and flavors can often do wonders for improving your skin.
Charcoal and OTC Topical Treatments for Acne
Face washes that contain activated charcoal detoxify skin and remove dirt and oils that contribute to acne. There are a number of OTC topical treatments, some of which were previously available by prescription only, that can be applied to the entire face or to acne spots only to eliminate or reduce breakouts. These treatments are often inexpensive, as well, so if one doesn’t work, you can easily try another.
Cosmetic Surgery
If you’re serious about transforming your skin, there are a few cosmetic medical procedures you can consider. Some of these treatments are designed to assist those who have medical disfigurement, scars, acne, rosacea, varicose veins, and a host of other conditions. Some treatments include laser treatment, hair removal, chemical peeling and resurfacing and Botox.
You should be sure to get medical advice from practitioners at Advanced Dermatology & Skin Cancer Specialists or a similar provider in your particular locale. Though more expensive than over-the-counter treatments, these medical procedures can transform your complexion.
TCA Peels for Uneven Skin Tone
Trichloroacetic acid peels are done by a dermatologist. One of the most effective methods of removing sun damage and hyperpigmentation, most people see results with just one treatment. Old TCA peels will leave you with scabs that last about two weeks, but you might be able to use one of the newer style peels that will only leave you with a little dryness and flaking for about a week. You’ll have more even and beautiful skin tone that you can be proud of.
Your skin’s appearance isn’t set in stone. A few tweaks can make a world of difference.
