TREATMENT FOR KERATOSIS PILARIS...

KERATOSIS PILARIS TREATMENT CHICO  916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC

Keratosis pilaris, also known as KP or chicken skin, refers to tiny little bumps, which are sometimes inflamed, and commonly appear on the backs of the upper arms or fronts of the thighs. While this condition is mostly harmless, to most it is annoying. Similar to whiteheads and blackheads, KP is stubborn and requires diligence to smooth away the bumps.

A series of chemical peels will benefit this condition and provide quick results when combined with the proper medical grade skin care products.

PCA Skin in Chico, has several products that can help with this condition. For those experiencing redness, KP requires skin care products that sooth and control inflammation. KP also requires the proper exfoliating and hydrating agents as well as a broad spectrum sunscreen to protect newly exposed skin cells that have made there way to the skin's surface.

TO FIND OUT WHICH CHEMICAL PEELS AND SKIN CARE PRODUCTS WILL HELP TREAT KERATOSIS PILARIS, PLEASE SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION WITH OUR MEDICAL SKIN CARE PRACTITIONER.  (530) 503.9169

SHOULD I USE A TONER IF I HAVE ACNE?

ACNE SKINCARE PRODUCTS CHICO   916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC

The majority of people with acne have oily skin and are in need of a toner - as are combination skin types. When choosing a toner, look for a product that contain exfoliating ingredients such as salicylic, glycolic, mandelic or lactic acid. A good toner should not burn or strip the skin of its oils.

Toners serve several functions: to remove residual cleanser, surface bacteria and oil (without stripping); to lower the pH of the skin and increase product penetration. Despite their claims to be pH balanced, most over-the-counter toners are alkaline. Alkalinity encourages bacteria and can decrease the effectiveness of certain products.

A toner should be used as part of an entire skincare system within one particular skincare line. Doing so, ensures that your products are chemically formulated to work together so that you reap the benefits of the active ingredients.

916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC SPECIALIZES IN CUSTOMIZED TREATMENT OPTIONS. IF YOU WOULD LIKE HELP DETERMINING A SKINCARE SYSTEM THAT WILL HELP YOU GET CLEAR - WE ARE HERE TO HELP. CONSULTATIONS CAN BE MADE BY CALLING: (530) 503.9169

ACNE OR FOLLICULITIS...

TREATING FOLLICULITIS CHICO    916SKIN - ACNE SKIN CARE CLINIC

Both men and women can experience acne along the jaw line that is the result of infected hair follicles. This condition is also known as folliculitis. It is most common along the neck, jaw, hair line and thighs. Friction to these areas can injure the hair follicle, rendering it weak, and more susceptible to infection.

Many acne sufferers have a tendency to pick at their lesions or tweeze the hairs. Neither is effective. Folliculitis requires exfoliation anti-inflammatories and antibacterials. To avoid further irritation, shave in a downward direction and avoid clothing or other things that cause friction to the area. If inflammation is involved, ice is ALWAYS a great go-to!

TO LEARN MORE ABOUT TREATING YOUR FOLLICULITIS, SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH AN ACNE SPECIALIST AT 916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC. OUR TREATMENT OPTIONS ARE TAILORED TO THE NEEDS OF EACH INDIVIDUAL. WE LOOK FORWARD TO HELPING YOU! (530) 503.9169

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I WASH MY FACE TO HELP CLEAR ACNE...

ADULT ACNE TREATMENT IN CHICO  AT 916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC

Oily, acne-prone skin types benefit from cleansing the skin twice a day. A good cleanser will remove excess oil without stripping your skin. Get in the habit of washing your face every morning for 60 seconds and doubling up in the evenings with two back-to-back cleanses at 60 seconds each.  If your skin feels dry and tight following a cleanse, it's an indicator that you are using the wrong type of skin care product. A professional skin care consultation is a great way to learn how to take care of your skin - specifically for your skin type. Take advantage of this!

To help keep your complexion clear, choose a sunscreen that has the added benefit of hydration!

ACNE & GLYCEMIC INDEX...

NUTRITION PLANS ACNE IN CHICO   916SKIN - ACNE & WELLNESS CLINIC

High and medium glycemic index (GI) foods are known to spike blood sugar causing a stress response, which can trigger acne in acne-prone individuals.

The glycemic index was originally designed for diabetics, and ranks carbohydrate-containing foods and beverages on how they influence your blood sugar.  Each food or beverage is given a score on a scale from 0 to 100. The glycemic index only ranks foods and beverages that have a strong influence on blood sugar. There are many websites and books that provide lists of GI values for different foods. Becoming familiar with    glycemic index is an important tool in learning to manage your health and your skin.

GI SCORING SYSTEM FOR FOOD & BEVERAGES:
70+  (HIGH GI) EXAMPLES: white rice, white bread, watermelon
56 to 69 (MEDIUM GI) EXAMPLES: raw pineapple, bananas, sweet corn
55 (LOW GI) EXAMPLES: kidney beans, lentils, peas, peanuts, raw apple, raw carrots

ACNE SPECIALIST OR DERMATOLOGIST?

WHAT TYPE OF ACNE TREATMENT IN CHICO  IS BEST FOR YOU?

Whether you have mild, moderate or severe acne, there are
ACNE TREATMENTS IN CHICO that work. This is a difficult pill for many to swallow because most acne sufferers out there have tried EVERYTHING...  and are still plagued with acne.

The 916SKIN - Acne Treatment Program is highly successful for those who are patient and committed. The program requires bimonthly treatment, as well as a daily skincare regimen requiring several steps every morning and every evening. If you follow the instructions of your Acne Specialist and stick to the program - you WILL get clear - it's that simple.

If you are the type of person that cannot stick to a routine, then see a practitioner to figure out the root cause of your acne. Toxic overload, digestive disorders, food or chemical sensitivities, food intolerances, inability to manage stress, polycystic ovaries, or other hormone related conditions can trigger the acne process. Determining the root cause allows you to begin treating your acne from the inside.

There are also those people who just don't care about getting to the root of the problem. These people typically want a quick fix, a pill or a 1 step wonder to get clear. If you fit this description - you are the type of person who might benefit from a dermatologist's care.

916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH THE PROPER FORMS TO SUBMIT TO YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY FOR POTENTIAL REIMBURSEMENT. FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE VISIT OUR ACNE SKINCARE WEBSITE.

HAVE ACNE - GO ORGANIC...

ACNE SCAR REVISION CHICO, CA   916SKIN - ACNE TREATMENT CLINIC

Over loading the liver can trigger breakouts in acne-prone individuals. Eating organic helps take the work load off your liver, keeps your system clean, and when combined with the appropriate acne management plan, will help clear your acne.

Going organic reduces your consumption of foods produced with antibiotics, growth hormones and pesticides. Organic foods are not genetically modified - ever. As a result of organic farming methods, there is less pollution to our water, air, soil and BODY!

Know where your food comes from! Not all organic foods offer the same nutritional value. Organic produce from the local farmers market is teaming with nutrients, but organic produce that has traveled across the country has lost its nutritional value. To ensure you are purchasing food that is packed with nutrition, read labels or check out your local Farmer's Market.

916SKIN - ACNE TREATMENT CLINIC INCORPORATES HEALTHY NUTRITION INTO THEIR  ACNE TREATMENT PROGRAM.
