Dry Skin & Acne Breakouts

One of the many myths about being in control of acne breakouts is "You need to dry out the skin to get rid of acne". Definitely not! You do not have to "dry out" your skin to control acne. In fact, if you dry your skin with harsh chemicals such as Benzoyl Peroxide you will damage the natural moisture balance of the skin and may cause further problems. Yes, it may be effective for a short while, but it is also highly probable that your pimples will get worse over time.

BIOSKINCARE™ Cream has anti-inflammatory effects, does not dry out the skin, but instead restores a healthy moisture balance, while also getting acne bacteria under control and unclogging the hair follicles to allow sebum to flow to the surface of the skin naturally.

The real cause of breakouts is clogged pores where sebum accumulates within the hair follicles and ruptures the cells lining the sebum ducts. Then your body reacts with inflammation of the sebum canal and there is proliferation of uncontrolled acne bacteria. This can further progress to pus, cystic acne and ultimately scarring.

Do Staph Infections Cause Acne Breakouts?

Staph infections can manifest themselves on the skin, in the form of eruptions that are pus-filled and look like boils. But, if the eruptions are smaller, they can be more like zits or pimples.

Typically, more than one eruption will be present, and they can be present in one or more areas on the body. They can be painful and very unsightly.

These eruptions are different than normal acne in that they are not caused by pores clogging and becoming infected or by lesions to the walls of the sebum canals. Therefore, normal acne treatments will not be effective in treating the breakout.

If you have a staph infection, you will need a doctor to diagnose it and treat it. Antibiotics MUST be prescribed in order to cure a staph infection.

How do you tell if you have a staph infection or if it is just regular acne? It can be hard to tell the difference, but some signs to look for are eruptions in places you do not normally get pimples. For instance, if you occasionally get pimples, but only on your chin, then suddenly you start to experience eruptions on your cheeks or forehead, it may not be simple acne.

Everyone’s skin is different, and only you know how your skin usually behaves. If you see signs that something unusual is happening, then you should check with your doctor to find out the cause.
