Ten Simple Stretch Marks Treatment

June 17th, 2010 by admin No comments »

Stretch marks occur due to weight gain, rapid weight loss and pregnancy. All these situations result in rapid changes to body shape, which in turn affects your skin. Stretch marks have a very ugly appearance and start off with a reddish or purplish colour, which later turns into a glossy look with steaks of silver or white.

Stretch marks arise when the level of glucocorticoids increases throughout the bloodstream. The adrenal glands secrete this hormone and its level at times of pregnancy obesity, weight loss, weight lifting and Cushing’s syndrome is high. Some medical terms used for stretch marks are vergetures, striae cutis distensae lineae atrophicae, striae distensae and linea albicante.

Its very embarrassing when stretch marks start appearing. Skin which was normal looking and glowing now looks ugly and very unsightly, which can be emotionally distressing as well. However, nature has put forth some cures for this problem.

Here are a few tips on how you can remove stretch marks, using home-made mixes, pastes or changing your diet:

>> Massage the area with stretch marks using either cod liver oil, olive oil, vitamin E oil or flaxseed oil.

>> Regularly doing exercises will tone your body and reduce stretch marks because its when your skin become loose or stretches that stretch marks start appearing.

>> An age old remedy for removing stretch marks is applying some cocoa butter on them.

>> If you are not eating the right foods, you can get stretch marks because your body is not getting the right nutrients. Make changes in your eating habits so that you have a balanced meal and your body get the nutrition it requires.

>> Taking too much caffeine or tea can make your skin more susceptible to stretch marks. Reduce the intake and increase your consumption of water.

>> Using oils containing Vitamin E or Olive oil can reduce stretch marks and even prevent them from occurring, by providing the skin with nourishment and increasing elasticity.

>> Buy creams containing collagen as they help to fight off stretch marks.

>> Applying lavender oil on the areas with stretch marks can help to remove them.

>> Use an apricot scrub on the area affected by stretch marks and you will see them to disappear in a short while.

Doing the above-mentioned steps will help you to remove stretch marks naturally. You do not have to spend money buying lotions or in doing surgery. Neither do you have to go through the trouble of finding a skin specialist or a beauty salon for finding a cure to this problem.

Natural remedies for removing stretch marks are painless and all that is needed is a few minutes of your time every day for a period of three to six months to see full effects.

Basic facts about thyroid cancer

June 17th, 2010 by admin No comments »

“If you must have cancer, Thyroid cancer is the one you would choose”. This statement is most often stated by doctors diagnosing the disease. Of all cancers, thyroid cancer has the highest cure rate.

Most patients will have a thyroid nodule in which the cancer begins to grow. Since the nodule starts out very small it takes time to discover it. 99% of nodules aren’t malignant but for the 1% that is malignant, this will probably be the only sign of the disease. Occasionally, symptoms such as hoarseness, neck pain and and enlarged lymph nodes will occur in people with thyroid cancer.

The first step in diagnosing the cancer is testing the nodule. Radioactive iodine is injected in the patient. Since the thyroid needs iodine in order to produce its hormones the thyroid will absorb the iodine. The thyroid is then scanned, if the nodule absorbs the iodine normally it will show up on the scan and is classified as a hot nodule,of which 95% are benign. A cold nodule is one that does not absorb the iodine and doesn’t show up on the scan. Cold nodules have a higher rate of cancer, but 85% of them will also be benign.

The scan will usually be followed by a FNA (Fine Needle Aspirate)biopsy. A needle is injected painlessly into the nodule and cells are aspirated into a syringe. The cells are examined by a pathologist, the nodule is then classified as benign, suspicious or malignant.

Once a nodule is diagnosed as a malignant tumor the pathologist will decide which type of thyroid cancer it is:papillary, follicular, medullary, or anaplastic. The most common types are papillary and follicular and these are also the most curable. Both are typically treated with the complete removal of the lobe of the thyroid which harbors the cancer, in addition to the removal of most or all of the other side. The surrounding lymph nodes will be assessed to see if they need to be removed also.

About 4-6 weeks after the thyroid has been removed, the patient will undergo radioactive iodine treatment. Iodine treatment is the simplest of all radioactive treatments for cancer. Since only thyroid cells absorb iodine, as previously stated, radioactive iodine is given to the patient in a pill and any remaining thyroid or cancerous thyroid cells will absorb the poisonous iodine and they’ll be destroyed from within. Since all other cells in our body cannot absorb iodine they remain unharmed. None of the symptoms associated with cancer treatment appear in this case, symptoms such as hair loss, nausea, pain diarrhea and other discomforts.

Once the treatment is launched the patient is given a thyroid hormone replacement pill because a human being can’t live without thyroid hormone.

The patient will usually be examined every 6-12 months by his endocrinologist to determine if the daily dose of thyroid hormone is correct and to make sure the tumor is not returning.

Different Types of Lazer Skin Treatment Available

June 16th, 2010 by admin No comments »

Lasers have become the tool of choice for many cosmetic surgeons today, because they can target very specific areas of the skin for treatment and the recovery time after lazer surgery can be much less than traditional surgical methods. The other advantage to using lasers is that these high energy light beams can successfully treat numerous conditions and issues of the skin, from fine lines and wrinkles to birthmarks and scars. Because the beams of light are so intense and precise, delicate procedures can be completed that would not be possible with traditional knife methods.

1. Skin Resurfacing

Laser skin treatment can effectively remove the top layer of skin, much like a chemical peel. The result is an underlying layer that is smoother and free of shallow scarring, fine lines and sun damage. This procedure can also do away with skin discolorations like age spots and blotchiness. Hyperpigmentation, another sign of aging in some skin tones, can also be reduced with this type of treatment. The process is relatively painless when a topical anesthetic is used before the procedure, and recovery time is fairly short. Redness begins to disappear in a matter of days, leaving softer, smoother skin.

2. Hair Removal

Another popular form of lazer skin treatment is the removal of unwanted hair from the face, legs and bikini area. A lazer is used to destroy the melanin in the hair and the hair follicle, without damaging the surface of the skin. A series of three to five treatment sessions are recommended, and maintenance may only have to be done every year or so. This procedure also uses a topical anesthetic for additional comfort during treatment and the results may last a year or longer.

3. Scar Removal

Scars and birthmarks are something that most people can live without, but until the advent of lasers, there wasn’t much that could be done to remove these blemishes easily. Now, a series of lazer skin treatments will effectively diminish those marks, leaving skin smoother and nearly blemish free. Due to the precision of the laser, even small marks can be targeted without damaging the surrounding skin area. A series of treatments is generally recommended to achieve the desired results, and the number will vary based on the size of the mark and the response of the patient.

4. Tattoo Removal

Removing a tattoo used to take multiple sessions under the knife, skin grafts and extensive recovery time. Now, tattoo removal has become much quicker and easier with lazer skin treatment alternatives. Because the field of lazer surgery is improving all the time, the required sessions for tattoo removal have decreased by half; from twelve appointments to just six to completely get rid of the tattoo. Keep in mind that this number varies based on the size of the tattoo and response to treatment and is generally based on professional tattoos. Amateur tattoos can take even fewer sessions to remove.

Laser skin treatment has become the option for many cosmetic surgeons and patients today, due to the success of the procedures and the short recovery time that is required. For more information about the many things that lasers can do, contact a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon in your area.

How to remove a tick from a dog

June 15th, 2010 by admin No comments »

It doesn’t take a romp in the woods for your dog to be attacked by blood-sucking pests. Ticks, which can carry deadly Lyme disease, could show up on your dog without it even leaving the yard. The tick could hitch a ride on a stray cat or mouse that crosses through your yard and finds its way onto your dog’s body. Spot-on treatments and sprays aren’t 100% effective so even the most cautious dog owner may need to remove a tick occasionally.

There’s no need to fear. Removal of a tick can be a fast and mostly painless task. No special tools are needed. A pair of tweezers and a small jar of alcohol will do fine. Mineral oil, hydrogen peroxide and antibiotic ointment are a few items to keep nearby, just in case. You may want to have someone hold your dog still to make this easier. The less movement from your dog the better chance you have at getting the whole tick off in one try.

First, move as much hair away from the tick as possible. Grab the tick with your tweezers as close to the skin as you can get without pinching your dog. Pull down, along your dog’s body firmly. You don’t want to pull up or flip the tick over because this could cause the tick’s head to come off and be left behind in your dog. Place the tick in the jar of alcohol and seal the jar. If the tick’s head does become imbedded, use a dab of mineral or baby oil and rub the spot till the head works its way out. Place the head in the jar of alcohol as well. Now you can clean the area of the bite with some soap or a bit of hydrogen peroxide. Treat the bite with some antibiotic ointment to soothe any irritation. Thoroughly check your dog for more ticks paying special attention to the folds in the ears and between their toes. Watch your dog for a few days for any signs of an allergic reaction or worse. After that you can flush the tick down the toilet.

An occasional tick is not a sign of bad pet parenting. So don’t beat yourself up over it. After the tick is gone you’ll be your dog’s hero once again.

Don’t be Too Bad to your Sebaceous Cysts!

June 12th, 2010 by admin No comments »

Where you might find sebaceous cysts

A sebaceous cyst is a sac filled with a greasy material (sebum) caused by plugged ducts at the site of a hair follicle. Basically meaning cysts of the sebaceous glands, these small bumps in the skin that feel hard to touch often tend to congregate in corners – ie. your genital area, underarms and neck. It is not uncommon for women to fear that these bumps or lumps under the skin may be genital herpes. However, these under-the-skin bumps and lumps are often found to be sebaceous cysts. And with natural treatment of sebaceous cysts(http://www.mitamins.com/disease/Sebaceous-Cyst.html), they can pretty much disappear, and stop aggravating you.

Painless cysts

Although sebaceous cysts are usually found on the face, neck, and trunk, they also occur near the groin of both women and men. Sebaceous cysts are usually painless, slow-growing small bumps or lumps that move freely under the skin.

Natural treatment – leave it alone

The first step of natural sebaceous cyst treatment(http://www.mitamins.com/disease/Sebaceous-Cyst.html) is to leave it alone. It’s important not to touch or try to remove the substance inside to prevent tenderness, swelling, and infection of a sebaceous cyst. Occasionally, and if you are not careful, infections of the sebaceous cyst may occur, requiring treatment, whether natural treatment or more chemical treatment. Signs or symptoms that may indicate infection of sebaceous cysts include: redness, tenderness, increased temperature of the skin over the bumps or lumps, greyish white, cheesy, foul smelling material draining from the bump or lump. Some cysts are annoying because they rub against clothing. They may be unsightly or may become infected. In these cases they may need to be drained with a small incision. Larger cysts may be removed entirely. The cyst and the sac around it are removed to prevent recurrence. Oral antibiotics, such as cloxacillin or erythromycin, may be given as part of the treatment for an infected cyst.

Vanishing cysts

Sebaceous cysts are usually easily diagnosed by their appearance to the trained eye. In some cases, a biopsy may be necessary to rule out other conditions with a similar appearance. Sebaceous cysts most often disappear on their own and are not dangerous. Occasionally, your sebaceous cyst(http://www.mitamins.com/disease/Sebaceous-Cyst.html) may become inflamed and tender. Sometimes sebaceous cysts grow large that they may interfere with your everyday life, requiring more than just natural sebaceous cyst treatment. When this happens, surgical removal in your health care provider’s office may be necessary. Small inflamed cysts can often be treated by injection of steroid medications or with antibiotics. Sebaceous cysts may occasionally become infected and form into painful abscesses. It is important when sebaceous cysts are surgically removed that the entire sac is excised to help prevent a recurrence. However, it’s important to note that sebaceous cyst recurrence in not unusual.

Spa Abc

June 7th, 2010 by admin No comments »

With the health consciousness of hoi polloi rising by the day, commoners often stumble upon hitherto unheard fitness jargon. And the word spa is in grave danger of becoming a clich, now that almost all health talk is considered incomplete without an abundant scattering of it. Despite its frequency of use in day-to-day chatter, the word remains a mere eardrum acquaintance for many. Heres a lowdown on spa basics.

The word is an acronym of the Latin phrase sanus per aquam which means health through water. Today its meaning has evolved to include a host of services on its menu right from wholesome physical well being or getting treated for an ailment, to mental peace or an overall body rejuvenation package. Head to a spa and bid adieu to all your worries of shaping up, toning down, relaxing, de-stressing, and getting rid of the extra flab.

The panache of a spa lays in the right blend of stress management and beauty treatment that it offers on menu. And while we do not strip stress management of its due importance, we all know the effect of a good physical therapy on the emotional well being of a person.For example a foot massage or a simple facial can energize and enliven your spirits equally well as it works on your skin.

Some of the most popular spa treatments are discussed here, which might prove to be of some help to first timers.

Body wrap

As the name suggests, a body warp is a procedure where the whole body is wrapped in paste. This paste could well be a mud pack or herbal oil wrap. Varied wraps are used to tone, moisturize, cleanse and treat skin. Mineral rich mud is one of the most popular wraps, and the mud from Dead Sea is particularly known for its healing effects.

Massage therapy

A massage relaxes your body, pressurizing muscles and particular points to increase the blood circulation and, in turn, metabolism. Ayurvedic massage therapies have lately caught on the fantasies of spa goers, but other massage therapies like Shiatsu, hydrotherapy and watsu are also quite popular. While shiatsu massage is an oriental technique based on acupressure, where fingertip pressure is used to stimulate energy flow and solve specific physical problems, hydrotherapy comprises of treatments that are tailored to individual needs, be it relaxation, muscle-healing, or losing weight. Watsu is an amalgamation of water and shiatsu massage therapies. LaStone therapy is a technique involving the use of alternating hot and cold stones to relax muscles and repair stressed bodies.

Cosmetic treatments

A spa is also home to purely cosmetic procedures such as deep conditioning hair treatment, or intensive facials, manicures and pedicures. These treatments target the proverbial skin deep beauty and are aimed at customers who have little time on hand for a quick makeover. One of the most popular cosmetic procedures is waxing treatment, a painless hair removal treatment.

Aromatherapy

This therapy is based on one of the strongest human instincts – sense of smell. In this, a visitor is treated to the odor of particular scents that can relax and revitalize. Usually used as a part of a massage or a facial, it effectively brings about mood changes.

Medical treatments

Muscle stiffness, psoriasis, joint aches, injuries and other disorders can be treated at a spa with the help of alternative therapies and medication. Medical spas are the next booming thing.

Detox treatments

Given our daily intake of junk, processed food and the polluted environment that we live in, our bodies are storehouses of toxins. Detox treatments aim at ridding the body of all these toxins to help in its quick rejuvenation and increased metabolism.

Weight management

Weight management therapies are the top grossers among spa services these days. Weight reduction programs do not merely concentrate on temporary weight loss, but target at a lifestyle change that assists you in retaining the reduced weight over time. Aimed at both the sexes, muscle toning and weight gain programs are the newest addition to these weight management programs.

Stress management

A timely effort to de-stress the tensed nerves is of utmost importance to working people, whose high profile jobs prove demanding upon their well being. A series of stress management programs can instill a sense of achievement and take some burden away from the mundane chores of work.

Other services

Spas have been rather quick in jumping onto the bandwagon to offer honeymoon packages, bridal packages, romantic packages, and anniversary packages. Mushy couples on their honeymoon can enjoy while getting pampered in each others company. Brides-to-be, eager to put up their best face despite immense pre- wedding stress, can take a week off before the d-day to soothe nerves and look their best. Couples looking for spicing up their life together can head for a destination spa, where spiritual well being, physical health and togetherness await them. You could also treat your loved one to a spa service of your choice for an anniversary.

Wrap up

All in all, a spa is a place where you can put your feet up, relax and comfort yourself no end, to face the challenges of life with a renewed vigor.

Allergy

June 5th, 2010 by admin No comments »

ALLERGY

It is a commonly used term. Those who suffer from allergy they take it as a part and parcel of life. They believe it has no treatment. But the fact is allergy is an immune disorder and it is perfectly curable in homoeopathy. Because in homoeopathy the immune system is stimulated in order to cure a disease.

Let us first understand allergy at a glance.

It is the hypersensitive reaction of the body towards certain substances called allergen. Allergen can be dust, smoke, any food or vegetable or any weather, any smell, sun light etc. Allergy can affect people of all age groups

Cause-

a. Lack of body immunity

b. Increased body sensitivity

c. Family history of skin or respiratory or any major illness.

d. history of suppressed skin disease by external application or antibiotics.

The symptoms of allergy mainly appearing on skin and respiratory system are as follows-

1.Dust allergy- On slight exposure to dust; even from sweeping a floor, from opening an old news paper, fume from kitchen do you get itching in eyes and nose? Then sneezing for a long time which is followed by runny nose and eyes? If yes, then you are suspected of having dust allergy.

You are scarred of doing morning walk as the sweepress on the road may be sweeping and the dusty surrounding may aggravate your dust allergy. You don’t like to do evening walk as the home coming vehicles leave the road full of smoke and fume. The moment you inhale that air, the sneezing starts.

Tips-Avoid exposure to dusty environment and use a cloth to cover your nose while passing through a dusty road.

2. Allergic rhinitis-Sneezing starts early in the morning as soon as you wash your face. Constant sneezing followed by running nose and eye. This often is followed by headache (sinusitis). In winter the condition is worse. Constant itching and irritation in eyes cause redness of eyes. Watery discharge from nose is acrid which causes erosion of skin of nostrils.

Tip- Use leukwarm water for washing the face in morning and bathing.

3. Frequent sore throat-Does slight intake of cold drink, pickle, sour food, fruits, exposure to air condition etc. cause throat irritation, pain in throat with difficult swallowing etc.? It may be pharyngitis and tonsillitis. Sometimes these symptoms lead to viral fever. You avoid watching movie in theatre as exposure to A.C will affect you. You avoid joining a party as you can’t have cold drinks there. If these are your problem then homoeopathy has a lasting solution for you.

Tip- Avoid the fruit with citric acid and other food causing sore throat.

4. Sinusitis- There are 4 pairs of sinus (air filled pockets) present in our face. In cases of recurrent respiratory tract infection these sinuses gat infected and leads to headache. Headache from head bath, frontal headache, headache between the eyebrows, at the root of the nose, around the eyebrows , swelling of eyelids with heaviness in head, can’t bow down the head etc. are the main symptoms of sinusitis.

Tips- Avoid cold exposure, dry the hairs immediately upon taking head bath.

5. Asthma- If the above given complaints are not taken care of then often they lead to bronchitis or asthma. Here you have shortness of breath because of contraction of airway muscles. The attack may come with or without sweating. Craving for air makes you restless. It compels you to use nasal spray. But gradually the doses of the spray increases making your body resistant to that. Other side effects also get added.

For example- Steroids used for asthma reduces adrenaline in body. Hence it is followed by fatigue, tiredness etc.

Triggers- winter, cold drink, citric fruit, lying down posture, exposure to dust, smoke etc. are the aggravating factors for asthmatic attack.

Tip-Avoid taking cold drink grapes and orange.

While lying down keep the head slight higher than the body.

6. Sun allergy- Do you get darkness of skin (tanning), itching and swelling in patches (urticaria), rash on skin with or without itching. Skin rash coming in stripes or patches like coins. You go on itching and itching. It feels good to scratch. Then is followed by bleeding? Sometimes they vanish automatically. Do these occur after you are exposed to sun light even for few minutes? All these complaints come under one umbrella of sun allergy.

Ointments or external applications can’t bring lasting effect. They often suppress the complaints and give rise to more vigorous internal complaints. SPF (sun protection formula) lotion also fails to bring a permanent relief.

Tip-Cover the exposed part of your skin with white cloth which absorbs the heat efficiently.

7. eczema- Itching mostly around joints, in the skin folds like elbows, underarms, under breasts, thigh folds. Severe itching found often associated. Oozing of watery or sticky fluid from the eruption. Whichever body part is contacted with that fluid, new eruption appears. Peeling of skin from the dried eruption.

8. Acne/pimples- It is the inflammation of the sweat glands or sebaceous glands situated underneath the skin.

Cause-It may be genetic, hormonal, and wrong in diet or regimen, oily skin texture, dandruff etc.

Genetic and hormonal acne are usually painful, large, red (acne rosacea) in colour with whitish tip.

Pimples because of dandruff are usually small, multiple, present in forehead, cheek and arms like prickly heat; these are followed by dark blackish (blemishes) patches on skin.

9. Warts- It is caused by a virus called HPV (Human Papiloma Virus).It is seen as a genetic disorder also. Most of the people mention the presence of the same kind of warts in father or mother.

Warts may come in single or groups. Single ones may be flat type or cauliflower type etc. Warts coming in groups usually found around the neck, under arms and around genitalia.

Warts are treated the best in homoeopathy. No ligation, no cauterisation, no burning, no external application but only internal medicine is used. By homoeopathic medicine not only the existing warts disappear but also the tendency to form new ones is eradicated.

Caution- warts are because of internal cause. So external removal is not the permanent solution. Rather external removal gives rise to more injurious internal disorders.

10. Detergent/ornamental allergy –After washing clothes with detergent skin of the hand peel off. Skin surrounding the nail exfoliated causing the nail bed painful. Without washing machine you are bound to bear with the dirty cloths only! Nothing to be sad about. Homoeopathy has got cure for it.

Are you scarred of using ornaments, jewelleries? Having blessed by laxmi you are still not able to enjoy your gold! As soon as you use a ring the surrounding area around the finger start itching and eruption develop. After few days of wearing a necklace you find blakish tanning around the neck!

Many take these symptoms granted through out the life but trust me, try homoeopathy for once and get rid of these complaints for ever.

CURE- Lasting cure is effective with ‘constitutional homoeopathic treatment’(CHT).

Unique features of CHT-

1. Free from side effect.

2. Cost effective-It does not drain out your pocket. Even the poorest can afford it.

3. It not only removes present complaints but also prevents recurrence.

4. Method of treatment is mild, gentle, painless and lasting.

It is safe to use for all age groups starting from infants to elderly people as well as during pregnancy.

How allergy develops?

For every plant to grow 2 things are needed. (i) SEED and (ii) SOIL

Similarly for every disease to happen 2 things are needed. (I) the genetic tendency and (ii) wrong diet and mode of living.

The 1st point can be ascertained by family medical history and 2nd point from the patient himself. If anybody in your family (blood relations) is having allergy then genetically you also have the tendency to be affected by that disease. Later on when your body immunity goes down because of excessive physical or mental stress then that tendency develops into symptoms of allergy. Thus CHT considers the entire constitution of the patient and then constitutional medicines (3 types-antipsoric, antisyphilitic, antisycotic) are given as per the indication.

Speciality in Dr Meeta’s clinic-

1. Here the homoeopathic medicines are dispensed in the latest method (as per the sixth edition of organon by Samuel Hahnemann) that is 50 millesimal medicines and fractional doses are used. This makes the duration of treatment faster and rapid.

2. Individual case record is maintained for every patient.

3. Prescription is issued to the patient. No medicine is kept hidden.

4. Time to time sincere follow-up is done.

5. At the beginning of the treatment the patient is explained about the method and duration of treatment.

6. No food restriction from the medicinal point of view is given.

Beauty And Enlightenment: Lazer Light Treatment Of Acne

June 4th, 2010 by admin No comments »

Acne is not a particularly attractive trait of anyone, whether adult or adolescent. Acne, in fact, contributes to lowering one’s sense of self, and self-esteem. As acne untreated can scar one’s skin, the effects brought on by acne can scar one emotionally for life.

Acne, however, is curable. Called by its formal name Acne vulgaris, acne is characterized by inflammation of the skin in the form of pus-filled bumps. These bumps are actually hair follicles clogged with oil and dead skin cells.

Acne is caused by a variety of problems. It can be due to a genetic predisposition to acne, a theory supported by the prevalence of acne in Western societies. Acne is also caused by fluctuations in hormonal levels, especially of the male hormone testosterone. Acne, scientists surmise, is the body’s reaction to these hormonal changes.

Another cause of acne is stress, which on its own results in hormonal fluctuations due to overworking of the adrenal glands. Other causes include medications containing halogens, androgens, barbiturates, and iodides; exposure to chlorinated compounds such as chlorinated dioxins; and abnormalities in follicle physiology, such as channels that are too narrow, pores that are too wide and deep, among others.

Adult acne is common as well, and may be due to conditions such as ovarian syndromes, pregnancy, or a rare syndrome such as Cushing’s.

Although highly unsightly and inconvenient, acne is not without its cures. Several topical ointments, such as those containing retinoic acid and benzoyl peroxide, have been shown to cure acne. These medications, however, do not provide immediate results, and are thus often expensive.

Previous studies on acne have shown that sunlight can improve acne problems, but sunlight actually worsens acne in the long term due to UV damage to the skin. Nevertheless, treatment of acne by other wavelengths of light is now becoming common, as it is a painless, non-invasive, and has been shown to decrease the incidence of acne. One type, light wave therapy, passes a blue light beam of high intensity over the skin. Originally used for cancer therapies, this treatment has shown to be effective in acne removal.

The light of blue light therapy is generated by fluorescent bulbs, lasers, or dichroic bulbs. When applied daily, blue light can reduce acne considerably. This is due to the effect the light has on Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria responsible for causing acne.

According to studies, the bacterium produces a set of molecules called porphyrins, which generate harmful molecules called free radicals when porphyrins are exposed to blue light. As these free radicals accumulate, bacteria are killed, and acne is reduced until it disappears.

Blue light treatment has been shown to be safe, and even more effective than benzoyl peroxide, but over a shorter period. Blue light treatment, however, is considered expensive, but is actually cheaper than using benzoyl peroxide over a period of years.

Laser surgery, on the other hand, makes use of a high intensity lazer beam passed over the skin to treat acne. This kind of treatment has actually been used to treat acne scars, but is now commonly used to prevent acne.

Laser therapy works by one of the following methods:

* Lasers degrade, or burn away the follicle sac, the opening in the follicle from which hair grows.

* Lazer light is strong enough to damage, or completely remove oil-producing sebaceous glands.

* Like blue light treatment, lasers lead to the formation of free oxygen radicals in acne bacteria, which can kill them.

Laser surgery, however, is reputed to have disadvantages, such as damage to skin due to exposure to light. If used improperly, light and lazer treatments can dry out skin, or induce the formation of spots.

If you are interested in lazer surgery, consult with your dermatologist, and know the advantages and disadvantages of lazer surgery. If used well, lazer surgery can help you have cleaner, clearer skin free from acne.
