PIMPLES PRODUCT MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO:
Retinoid - Adapalene 0.1% Gel (Available in the US only) - https://howl.me/cldm3fJfpRJ
Topical Retinoids are a game-changer when it comes to pimples or acne treatment. They help decrease pore obstruction, decrease inflammation and decrease oil production while increasing skin cell turnover which helps prevent new acne bumps.
Don't waste your money on any retinoid. You should go for Adapalene 0.1% which is a topical Retinoid that’s FDA approved for acne treatment and available to buy over the counter if you’re watching in the US. Anywhere else in the world its prescription only, so speak to your healthcare professional.
Please remember Adapalene and all retinoids are not recommended for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. If you have sensitive skin you should apply a very little amount of the Adapalene 2-3 times a week and gradually increase usage until you build tolerance for daily use as it can cause dryness when you begin. Always read the information leaflet before using any medication and speak to your healthcare professional.
WHO GETS ACNE OR PIMPLES:
Acne is very common in teenagers and younger adults. About 95% of people aged 11 to 30 are affected by acne to some extent.
Acne is most common in girls from the ages of 14 to 17, and in boys from the ages of 16 to 19.
Most people have acne on and off for several years before their symptoms start to improve as they get older.
Acne often disappears when a person is in their mid-20s.
In some cases, acne can continue into adult life. About 3% of adults have acne over the age of 35.
ACNE OR PIMPLES AND DEPRESSION:
Acne can often cause intense feelings of anxiety and stress, which can sometimes make people with the condition become socially withdrawn. This combination of factors can lead to people with acne becoming depressed.
You may be depressed if during the last month you've often felt down, depressed or hopeless, and have little interest or pleasure in doing things. If you think that you or your child may have depression, it's important to speak to your GP.
LOW GLYCEMIC FOODS AND ACNE:
So generally, people that eat a lot of sugar, white bread, potatoes and white rice can cause acne. These are known as high glycemic index or high GI foods a full list of these types of foods can be found here - https://www.aad.org/public/diseases/acne/causes/diet.
You might want to try reducing the number of high GI foods you eat and see if your acne gets better. You shouldn’t get rid of everything at the same time, so try one at a time and check after a couple of weeks to see if your acne has improved.
Please DO NOT cut out any food groups from your daily diet before speaking to a healthcare professional like a doctor or qualified dietician.

WHEN TO SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE FOR ACNE OR PIMPLES:
If you have mild acne, speak to a pharmacist about medicines to treat it.
If these do not control your acne, or it's making you feel very unhappy, see a GP.
You should see a GP if you have moderate or severe acne or you develop nodules or cysts, as they need to be treated properly to avoid scarring.
Try to resist the temptation to pick or squeeze the spots, as this can lead to permanent scarring.
Treatments can take up to 3 months to work, so do not expect results overnight. Once they do start to work, the results are usually good.
