Aloe
Vera for Teen Acne
Acne. Pimples. Zits. However you phrase it, no matter what the fashions
for the young and hip in a given time period, teen skin problems seem
to be the one thing that never changes. If you’re a teen,
acne can be a devastating problem at a time when being the least bit
less than perfect can be a major ordeal.
Acne is, clinically, a chronic inflammatory disorder of the
pilo-sebaseous follicles. In other words, it’s a breakout of
pustules, commonly known as zits or pimples, on the face. It usually
coincides with puberty and most people outgrow the worst phases by
their early to late twenties. Many adults have the occasional
“zit,” but the frequency and severity of outbreaks
lessens considerably in adulthood.
Aloe
vera, while known primarily as a topical analgesic for burns,
can help reduce the severity of teen acne outbreaks, reduce scarring,
and condition skin. The “burn plant” has been used
for thousands of years as a healing substance; clay tablets from 1750
B.C. reportedly refer to aloe vera as a medicinal plant. An oral aloe
vera supplement like Aloeride® can help reduce teen acne and
keep skin healthy.
Aloe
vera works in two ways to help reduce teen acne. First, aloe
vera strengthens the immune system, helping the body’s
natural defenses to work correctly. By improving overall health, aloe
vera helps reduce the incidence of acne simply by making it easier for
the body to control itself and helping the immune system fight problems
which contribute to acne in teens.
Aloe
vera also has natural anti-inflammatory properties. Because
acne is an inflammation, an oral supplement like Aloeride® can
help reduce inflammation on an ongoing basis, and reduce the severity
and frequency of acne outbreaks.
While Aloeride®, taken orally on a regular basis, can help
reduce the incidence of teen acne, it should be part of an overall
routine designed to reduce and even eliminate acne. Keeping skin clean
and dry is important, and using Aloeride® in conjunction with a
facial cleanser helps with this essential task.
Topical aloe
vera application, in addition to Aloeride®,
can moisturize the skin at the same time it reduces the production of
oil produced by the skin. This contributes to overall skin health.
While most teens would be happy simply to not have a breakout, having
truly healthy-looking skin can and should be the ultimate goal.
As adults, we know that the acne will go away and no one will remember
that zit on your chin next year, let alone twenty years from now. We
understand that the trauma we suffered from acne was temporary.
Fortunately, we also understand that teens do not understand or even
care that it won’t matter later. They don’t want to
hear, “A hundred years from now, no one will know the
difference.” They’re young, sensitive, and very
conscious of their problems. Aloeride® is a safe, effective way
to help teens with their acne, while improving overall health.
When your teen takes Aloeride®,
a non-allergenic pill that is small and easy to swallow, he or she will
look forward to clear skin. You can rest assured knowing that
you’re helping them build their well-being from the inside
out.
