Controlling Acne

The most successful approach for skin care professionals in managing any skin condition is to develop a basic approach for assessment, diagnosis and then treatment. I encourage all nurses, estheticians and even physicians to develop his/her own rationale for dealing with specific skin conditions. Acne is NOT a disease, but rather a condition that can be controlled with the correct methodology. Nearly 90% of people in Western society will experience some degree of acne during their life, and acne and acne-like conditions present a complex problem to treat. Medically, acne severity is graded according to four categories; the simplest being the presence of only multiple blackheads or whiteheads, and the most.

06 Nov 2015

Collagen is a type of protein that connects and supports bodily tissues such as skin, bone, tendon, muscle and cartilage. It also supports internal organs. There are 25 types of collagen naturally occurring in our body and constitute 25% of the total protein in our body. Collagen works with elastin to support body tissues to give firmness and strength in lungs, bones, tendon and blood vessel.
