DAY 1: CANDIDA DIET

MARC'S ACNE SUCCESS STORY CHICO, CA     916SKIN - ACNE SKIN CARE


DAY 1: CANDIDA DIET

Hungry. No matter what I eat.
Gave all the food I'm not supposed to eat to my neighbor. When I told her about the diet, she looked at me like I was crazy. Need to figure out some quick easy meals. 20 days and counting.

Marc has been free of acne for over a year. In addition to acne, he also experienced daily bloating, massive fruit and sugar cravings, and suffered from reoccurring fungal infections. Although we strongly suggested the candida elimination diet for 3 weeks, he wasn't ready to take that on at the time.  However, we were able to clear Marc's acne within 3 months with biweekly acne treatments and product. Now, a year later, Marc has stepped up to the plate and is getting his candida issues under control.  He was kind enough to share his journal entries while doing the candida program. Follow Marc on his journey!

ACNE TREATMENT WITH A COLD SORE...

ACNE DOCTOR EL DORADO HILLS, CA      916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC

If you have a cold sore, hold off on your acne treatment. Acne lasers and acne peels both cause stress to the system, which can make cold sores worse. 

You will be hard pressed to find an acne doctor to perform a treatment when you have a cold sore. If you are determined, opt for an acne facial, which does not cause added stress. Even so, the majority of skincare professionals will tell you to come back once it has healed because even if the cold sore area is avoided and precautionary measures are taken, there is a risk of spreading the virus to your practitioner. 

916SKIN IS HERE TO HELP YOU GET CLEAR. SKIN TRANSFORMATIONS TAKE 3 TO 4 MONTHS. CALL OR EMAIL TO SET UP A CONSULTATION. (530) 680.2027

SUNSCREEN PROTECTING YOUR ACNE...

Toss out expired sunscreen!

This photo is great because it shows where to find the expiration date on sunscreen and other acne products. The not so great part, is that it shows photos of sunscreens that we DO NOT recommend for acne-prone skin. NO WAY, NOT EVER!

MOISTURIZER ISN'T JUST FOR WINTER...

TREATING ACNEIC SKIN FOLSOM, CA     916SKIN - ACNE SKIN CARE

Acneic skin experiences a different type of dryness during Chico summers. With temperatures blazing and ultra violet intensity, the skin is vulnerable to the type of damage that creates tiny microscopic breaks in the skin where water can escape (transepidermal water loss). Your skin may not feel dry because your sweat masks the symptoms.

Wearing a light moisturizer and OF COURSE, sunscreen, will help seal and protect the skin from dehydration. Hydrated skin is quicker to repair itself, which means acne lesions and dark spots will go away quicker when you show your skin some love.

THE PROBLEM WITH HOT SUNSCREEN...

SUNSCREEN FOR ACNE SKIN IN CHICO, CA      916SKIN - ACNE SKIN CARE CLINIC

Sunscreen can be an effective tool for managing acne when used in combination with the correct skincare system - just don't leave it in your car.

Hot sunscreen is money out the window. When sunscreen gets hot, its chemical structures begin to change, ruining your product in a matter of minutes.

BUILD YOUR HCl FOR CLEAR SKIN...

DIGESTIVE-BASED ACNE IN CHICO, CA     916SKIN - ACNE SKIN CARE CENTER

Sometimes, poor digestion can result in acne. As we age our body produces less hydrochloric acid (HCl). Some people naturally produce lower levels of HCl, particularly those with blood type A. Low levels of HCl leads to poor digestion, which in turn, can cause problem skin. Acne and acne rosacea can both develop as the result of poor digestion.

The body builds HCl from salts. It's important to consume your salts from whole foods like fresh vegetables and fruits, lemon juice and apple cider vinegar. These foods will provide your body with the types of salts it needs to produce more HCl. Stay away from sodas, energy drinks, chips, processed foods and fast foods as these salts can trigger acne flare-ups.

NUTRITION PLANS FOR THE TREATMENT OF ACNE ARE AVAILABLE THROUGH 916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC. ACNE PROGRAM DETAILS ARE AVAILABLE ON OUR WEBSITE OR YOU CAN SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION FOR MORE INFORMATION. (530) 680.2027

BEST CLARISONIC BRUSH HEAD FOR INFLAMED ACNE...

TREATMENT FOR ACNE EL DORADO HILLS, CA   916SKIN - ACNE SKIN CARE 

If you are battling inflamed acne - hold off on using the Clarisonic. Once your inflammation is entirely gone, your skin will react positively to the Clarisonic. Always use a soft brush head and don't push down - simply glide it over your skin.

When it comes to brush heads, opt for the Acne Brush Head (green center). You cannot scrub your acne away, so any brush head that is firmer than the Acne Brush Head is over kill and has the potential to over abraid, over dry and irritate your skin causing more breakouts. If you have sensitive skin, purchase the Cashmere Brush Head. This is the softest brush head available.

BEST CLARISONIC FOR INFLAMED ACNE...

NATURAL ACNE DOCTOR IN CHICO, CA     916SKIN - ACNE SKIN CARE

If you are suffering from inflamed acne, the Clarisonic Skin Cleansing Brush is not for you. Not yet. Using anything abrasive on inflamed acne, inflamed skin or even a few red pimples will exacerbate your breakout. The first step in treating inflamed acne, is getting rid of the inflammation. Once ALL the inflammation has subsided, then your skin will respond well to Clarisonic.

Clarisonic makes a variety of brushes ranging from $99 to $250. Whether you get the Mia1 for $99 or the Atria for $200, the oscillation of the fibers is the same, so why spend the extra $100 bucks unless you prefer a larger Clarisonic with multiple speeds? Mia1 works just as well as all the other brushes - so save yourself some cash!

ALTERNATIVE ACNE TREATMENT IS AVAILABLE AT 916SKIN - ACNE CARE CLINIC IN CHICO, CALIFORNIA.  WE TREAT ALL TYPES OF ACNE USING A HOLISTIC APPROACH.  (530) 680.2027

BEST ACNE TREATMENT BEFORE THE WEDDING...

PRE-WEDDING ACNE TREATMENT CHICO, CA     916SKIN - ACNE SKIN CARE

No one wants to be red or flaky before their wedding day. So, what's the best treatment for acne just before the wedding?  Of course, it depends on your skin type, but generally, the best type of treatment* to have the day before a big event is microdermabrasion followed by ultrasound to infuse topicals well suited for your skin.

Do everything you can to avoid stressing out before the big day. Stress is one of the top 5 acne triggers, and it can cause an acne flare-up overnight! So, delegate those last minute tasks and take yourself to yoga, a massage and anything else that will help you relax.

*Microdermabrasion is not for those with thin fragile skin, a tendency towards broken capillaries, or skin prone to redness.


TO CLEAR UP ACNE BEFORE YOUR WEDDING DAY, IT'S BEST TO START IN ADVANCE. IT TYPICALLY TAKES 3 TO 4 MONTHS TO GET CLEAR, BUT STARTING 6 MONTHS IN ADVANCE WILL GIVE YOU AN EVEN GREATER ADVANTAGE.
