How do i get rid acne scars on face and acne treatment topical lotion

Maintain a healthy kitchen with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Eat foods containing healthy omega-3 oils such as ground flaxseeds, salmon, and sardines. Drink six to eight large glasses of water a day. Vitamins A, B, C, and E, as well as chromium and zinc, all play a role in reducing and preventing acne. Avoid refined sugar, fried foods, and trans fat (such as milk, milk products, margarine, and any hydrogenated vegetable oils). Some people find that chocolate, caffeine, carbonated beverages, iodized salt, shellfish, wheat and/or milk products aggravate acne.
Acne affects more than 85 percent of teenagers but frequently continues into adulthood. Although there are more than 2 million visits to office-based physicians per year for patients in the age range of 15 to 19 years, the mean age at presentation for treatment is 24 years, with 10 percent of visits taking place when patients are between the ages of 35 and 44 years. Patients evaluated at tertiary care centers are prone to depression, social withdrawal, anxiety, and anger and are more likely to be unemployed than persons without acne. Scarring can lead to lifelong problems in regard to self esteem. The direct cost of acne in the United States is estimated to exceed $1 billion per year, with $100 million spent on over-the-counter acne products.
Individuals suffering with acne should not be discouraged if it takes several different types of treatments before finding the one that works best for them. As with treatment of anything, consistency is the key to a successful outcome.
