Does acne occur only in teenagers?
Acne is more common in the age group of 13 - 30 years but it may occur or persist even beyond this age limit. Males are more frequently affected than females.
How is acne prevented and treated?
Most patients require a combination of therapies customized to each patient's needs, based on skin type and severity of your acne. Most patients respond well to home care regimens. The best system currently available is CLENZIderm M.D.™
Obagi's CLENZIderm M.D.™ includes a new, liquified form of benzoyl peroxide that is 1/10,000 the size of any other benzoyl peroxide available.
CLENZIderm M.D. systems™ are clinically proven to penetrate more effectively than leading prescription benzoyl peroxide products.* As a result, this preserciption strength treatment instantly penetrates the pores and begins reducing acne below the skin's surface, providing a clearer complexion in as early as 2 weeks.
Clinically proven CLENZIderm M.D.™ works quickly to clear acne. In a clinical study, patients using CLENZIderm M.D.™ Normal to Oily experienced:
-
23% reduction in sore red acne after one week of use - twice the reduction as patients using a leading combination prescription acne medication and 52% reduction after 2 weeks.
-
13% reduction in whiteheads and blackheads after one week of use - more than twice the reduction as patients using a leading combination prescription acne medication - and 34% reduction after 2 weeks.
Most benzoyl peroxides are formulated with insoluble crystals that remain largely on the surface of the skin. Acne, however, starts below the surface of your skin, deep within the hair follicles, or pores.
