ACNE: NUT NUTRITION...

BEST FOODS FOR ACNE CHICO, CA   916SKIN - ACNE TREATMENT CLINIC

A handful of nuts is a handful of nutrition. Nuts and seeds are a good source of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber and healthy fats including omega 3s. Nuts also provide the body with many important essential amino acids. Although, nuts and seeds are not a complete protein, they are the highest source of protein in the plant world. As long you eat a variety of protein sources throughout the day, your body will have all the building blocks it needs to manufacture complete proteins.

Healing acne relies heavily on the body's ability to repair tissue. Providing your body with the proper building blocks to do so will help restore a healthy complexion.

AMOUNT OF PROTEIN PER 1/4 CUP SERVING:
Sunflower seeds = 8 grams
Almonds = 7 grams
Sesame seeds = 7 grams
Pumpkin seeds = 7 grams

DIET ALONE WILL NOT CLEAR YOUR SKIN.  TREATING ACNE IS MULTI-FACTORIAL AND REQUIRES A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH. TO SCHEDULE YOUR INITIAL CONSULTATION WITH A MEDICAL SKINCARE PRACTITIONER PLEASE CALL 916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC AT: (530) 680.2027

EASY ON THE HOT SHOWERS...

INFLAMED ACNE TREATMENTS     916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC

Easy on the hot showers. A steaming hot shower may be a great way to relax, but if you have inflamed acne, it will only set you back.

When addressing inflamed acne, eliminating redness is always the primary goal in getting clear. This includes red pimples and any redness in the surrounding skin. Irritating acne products, intense exercise, saunas, hot tubs, hot showers, or anything that causes the skin to be inflamed - should be avoided until the inflammation has completely subsided.


To cool the body, blood vessels dilate allowing more blood and heat to reach the skin's surface. This response only exacerbates inflammation. To help quench the redness, choose warm showers over hot and ice inflamed skin and acne 2 to 3 times a day for 3 to 5 minutes.

DOES JUICE CAUSE BREAKOUTS...

TREAT BREAKOUTS IN CHICO, CA       916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC

When it comes to controlling acne, the more you reduce your sugar intake, the healthier your complexion.  Most people overlook the sugar content of beverages completely. So don't be shocked when a seemingly single-sized bottle of flavored milk, juice or a coffee drink contains 2 - 3 servings - and average 30 grams of sugar per serving. Your best bet: switch to water and herbal teas.


Calculations based on 30g of sugar per serving:
1 serving   = 6 teaspoons sugar
2 servings  = 12 teaspoons sugar
3 servings  = 18 teaspoons sugar

Czzz STRESS BREAKOUTS...

ACNE TREATMENT RESULTS SACRAMENTO, CA     916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC

Consuming plenty of vitamin C rich foods helps manage stress by supporting the adrenal glands. High potency vitamin C supplementation is recommended for those under stress, especially acne-prone people who are susceptible to "stress break outs."

Research suggests that vitamin C supplementation can interfere with dietary vitamin B12. Although, iron & nitrates may counteract this affect, it is important to take vitamin C 1-1/2 hours to 2 hours after meals.

HEAT OR ICE FOR ACNE...

TREATMENT FOR CYSTIC ACNE REDDING, CA   916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC

Heat or ice for acne?  If the pimple is red go with the ice. If you have a cyst, or the pimple is deep without redness then apply a warm compress.

If the pimple or skin is inflamed, it has the potential to leave a dark mark. This is a scar-like formation termed post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, or simply, PIH. Icing the pimple for 2 to 3 minutes twice a day will help prevent acne scarring.

Warm compresses help draw fluid to the surface. If the lesion is open, a warm compress will help facilitate drainage. Following with ice can help prevent PIH.

916SKIN - ACNE SKINCARE CLINIC IN CHICO OFFERS A TREATMENT PROGRAM FOR CYSTIC ACNE. TO LEARN MORE, YOU MAY CALL THE CLINIC & SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION WITH AN ACNE EXPERT. (530) 680.2027

HELP CONTROL ACNE CHICO, CA      916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC

Controlling acne with a Fridge Locker... ridiculous, right? Well, not for all the acne suffering, sugar addicts out there.

Sugar not only suppresses the immune system, it is a major contributor of systemic inflammation, the root cause of degenerative disease and a trigger for breakouts in the majority of acne sufferers. Eliminating or even cutting back on sugar can help control your acne.

Living with someone who keeps the refrigerator stocked with sodas, ice cream and pie can be the demise of the sugar addict, especially one that suffers from acne. A few of our acne patients have reported that the Fridge Locker helps keep their diet and binging episodes in check.
