Acne is a skin disease which is usually associated with the face and the back of the human body. It usually happens to teenagers due to hormonal changes although adults can get acne as well.

There are several steps that you can take to ensure that the acne can be improved if not fully removed. The best way is to see a dermatologist and let him or her assess your acne condition. He/she can then recommend the best acne medication for you.

If you have mild acne, then another alternative is to buy OTC acne treatment creams and lotions. These over the counter acne medication can be found in any pharmacies or drug store. These do not require any prescriptions but you also need to determine which acne OTC medicine is suitable for you.

Most pharmacists can give you recommendations based on your acne condition and the type of skin you have.

The latest trend for acne products is to go natural. There are several natural acne treatment products on the market that uses natural ingredients to treat acne. One reason for their popularity is because traditional OTC acne treatment uses harsh chemicals such as salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide that can cause side effects such as skin redness and itching.

Most natural acne treatment products contain tea tree oil, aloe Vera and vitamin E as its main ingredients. These natural acne product works from the inside out by addressing the hormonal changes and provide the necessary nutrients for your body immune system to fight the acne bacteria.

I have been struggling for years with tough acne that are sometimes the big red inflamed ones, which hurt, and the other small red ones on my forehead, chin, cheeks and nose. I have gone to the Dermotologist many times and have been on many pills, and topical medicines that have not been helpful to me. I cannot be on antibiotics because I have asthma, and it will trigger it. Help, I am fed up with my acne!
