THE IMPORTANCE OF PROBIOTICS FOR ACNE...


Probiotics help treat acne in Chico. The good bacteria in our gut nourish our bodies and the cells that line our digestive tract. These probiotics keep other gut microbes in check, preventing overgrowth of candida and pathogenic bacteria. A gut that lacks healthy flora commonly results in skin disorders. Eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and acne are often the result of microbial gut imbalances. Taking a daily probiotic is just one more way you can target acne. It won't make your acne go away, but "one thing" never does. Treating acne requires many tools and tactics, and a daily probiotic, is just one more thing to add to your toolbox.

SOME BENZOYLS CAUSE BREAKOUTS...

Not all benzoyl peroxides (BPOs) are formulated to get you clear. Although BPOs are specifically made for the treatment of acne, ironically, some brands contain ingredients that are comedogenic (aka:pore clogging). The United States lacks regulations for the comedogenicity of cosmetic ingredients. Many companies use this to their advantage because they can produce mass quantities of acne products with cheap pore-clogging ingredients and label it as "non-comedogenic". This is confusing to the consumer because they're purchasing skincare products they presume won't make them break out, yet, they have the opposite effect.

When it comes to acne products, don't skimp. Get your products from a reputable source.

SALLY'S ACNE TREATMENT CENTER REVIEW

SALLY'S ACNE TREATMENT CENTER REVIEW CHICO
"My son, Jessie, had been battling acne starting around age 15. We had tried everything we could that was over-the-counter and had spent over a year with a dermatologist trying antibiotics and prescription strength topical skin treatments. 

As a Geneticist and professor of Microbiology, I was very concerned about the use of antibiotics to treat his acne and so decided to take him off the medications (although they were improving his skin at the time).  We continued to try several other over the counter and prescribed topicals, but his acne just got worse!  

When I was visiting him in Chico, I saw an ad for 916SKIN - Acne Treatment center. I was skeptical, but hopeful after talking to Tatja and reading everything on her website. My son started treatment and within about a month we started seeing some improvement. I think within 3 months the improvement was significant and just kept getting better. 

My son came home for Christmas and his skin was almost perfect!  I am completely convinced that the acne treatments offered at 916SKIN can cure anyone's acne problems if they follow Tatja's instructions. My son has now had clear skin for over a year, and even now, while he is studying abroad he continues to use the products he received from 916SKIN and follows the diet advice she gave him as well.  This skin treatment requires a commitment from the person being treated - but it definitely works!"

DEHYDRATION & HEALING ACNE...

ACNE TREATMENT CLINIC SACRAMENTO916SKIN - ACNE & WELLNESS CLINIC

Dehydration triggers a stress response, which can trigger breakouts in acne-prone individuals.  How much water should you drink? Consume half your weight in ounces every day. More when you exercise: 16 ounces, an hour before your workout. 4 to 8 ounces every 15 minutes during your workout. And, another 16 ounces after your workout. This seems like a lot of water - gulp! Get in the habit of taking a water bottle with you where ever you go. Hydration is essential for healthy cellular function including cell replication, repair, elasticity and healing acne. So, drink up!
