How to Treat Acne Beyond Your Face

Posted by – July 4, 2010

Acne for most people may be on the face. However, it doesn’t only grow in the face. For some people they may not have acne on the face but may have it on some parts of their body and these kinds of acne are difficult to treat.

Skin on your face and on the back is the same. So the back can also have acne but the difference is you cannot reach it and you may have difficulties applying treatment. A new product was released on the market called ClindaReach which is only available by prescription. It has a 1% clindamycin which is a powerful antibiotic. It also comes with a unique applicator that allows you to reach areas that are difficult to reach.

How to Treat Acne Beyond Your Face Some dermatologists recommend using shower gels that they prescribe. These shower gels have benzoyl peroxide or glycolic acid that helps treat the acne at the back. These shower gels have to reach the affected area on the back to get better results and faster treatment.

There are also sprays that are designed to treat hard to reach acne spots. Nature’s Cure Body Acne Treatment Spray, Murad Clarifying Body Spray are examples of these amazing products.

Avoid using products that have bath oils like coconut oil as well as isopropyl myristate as they can easily clog the pores on the skin.

Showering after exercise can prevent bacteria from getting in to the opened pores. Wear breathable cotton clothing to avoid irritation of the skin.

If you are having severe acne problems on the body then you may need to take anti-biotic up to 12 weeks.  Another way to treat acne without drugs is to undergo a blue light treatment. This procedure kills acne causing bacteria and it should be done regularly for 6 weeks.
