Getting rid of acne pimples is a problem faced by many individuals especially teenagers. Most of the time when acne pimples, blackheads and whiteheads pops up on teenagers faces, neck, shoulders and backs are as a result of puberty kicking in.

Now for most teenagers and adults too, when faced with acne their first reaction is to run and find the nearest drug store or pharmacy to try and find a quick fix solution to get rid of acne pimples and other forms of acne symptoms.

While these over the counter drugs may help, they are not permanent. They will clear up the skin and remove the acne for a while but in a short period of time the pimples, blackheads and white heads will just take back residence on your skin.

What I have found out is that the drug and pharmaceutical companies are preying on our pockets. They have the greatest and most compelling advertisements about how they can do this and that for you and in the long run they never really deliver.

On the other hand natural cures do work. It has been proven that using natural holistic treatments to get rid of acne is far more effective than using creams and various prescriptions and over the counter drugs. You should be aware that most of the drugs and creams that people use to treat their acne also contains chemicals that can worsen acne and deteriorate your skin.

Holistic treatments is a form of total body cleanse, it involves the right diet and the right attitude towards body hygiene. Holistic treatments are administered to clean clogged pores and remove the blackheads and whiteheads from deep within the skin. It will also get rid of acne pimples and permanently cure acne. However the time period for the healing and cleansing process may differ from individuals to individuals depending on how well the treatment is administered and how terrible the acne is.

Being bombarded with so many different types of acne treatments everyday, how do you know what is right for you?

It is recommended that you don't just go and spend you hard earn cash on a product because it claims to be the best (remember it is their job to do that to make sales).

Always read the entire sales pitch, see what the product guarantees and how will you benefit from the product. Check to see if there are any testimonials as this gives you an idea of what you can expect and you can also look for contact information which you can always send a nudge to see if you would get a response. Another important thing to look for is if they offer a money back guarantee and the duration of the guarantee. Think about it who wants to buy a product that will not benefit them?

While no one can tell you how to spend your money you should try make make good decisions. Acne is a very devastating disease and can also lower self confidence and self esteem. Anyone with acne should seek help to get rid of acne pimples and other symptoms of acne in the shortest time possible.
