SHAVING TIP FOR ACNE...

ACNE FACIAL TREATMENT CHICO, CA       916SKIN - ACNE CLINIC


Avoid the burn.  Give yourself at least 60 minutes after shaving before putting on your acne products.

Acne products contain active ingredients that are typically designed to exfoliate the skin. "Actives" often sting and cause redness when they are applied too quickly after shaving.  This in part, is due to a shift in pH - from shaving cream, which is usually alkaline, to "actives," which are usually acidic. Next time you shave, give your skin 60 minutes to recover. If it still burns , give it 90 minutes the next time around.

ACNE IS NOT CURABLE, BUT IT IS TREATABLE. WITH THE GUIDANCE OF AN ACNE SPECIALIST, YOU CAN HAVE CLEAR SKIN IN APPROXIMATELY 12 TO 16 WEEKS. LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR TREATMENT PROGRAM BY SCHEDULING A CONSULTATION.  (530) 503.9169
