Acne problems are something that can be prevented with proper skin care and cleansing but the most common question is – what to do when acnes are already there and how can regular pore cleansing affect this problem? If your acne problems are a hereditary factor, which can be a frequent case of skin problems, then acnes were something that you couldn’t avoid. You can, however, aid the healing process significantly by cleansing your face properly. The right acne treatment is something that only a doctor can prescribe to you. But pore cleansers, combined with the treatment, can really help in speeding up the healing process. However, it’s extremely important to know what to use and how to use it to make sure you are doing everything in your power to aid the curing process.
1. Your acne treatment is for the acne- not for your entire face. It will help the problem subside, but you still have to cleanse you face from all the impurities that get built up in the pores during the day. This way you enable the skin to breathe and regenerate and help it battle acne more effectively. Cleaning the irritated face is something you must do a few times during the day to prevent more clogged pores and more acne problems.
2. Since your skin is damaged you have to avoid using harsh and abrasive skin cleansers. Don’t irritate an already irritated skin because you can only make the problem become worse. Use mild cleansers, like cream or gel based ones. If you don’t have big acne problems you can even use a gentle scrub- you just have to be very careful and apply it gently. Using non comedogenic oils like castor, olive or jojoba oil , to flush pores is also good. Non comedogenic means that it doesn’t stay in the pores and doesn’t clog them.
3. Get a pore cleanser designed specifically for people with acne problems. These cleansers contain benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid or even both, and help to suppress acne very effectively. Some even say that this is the most effective addition to the prescribed medical acne treatment. It’s also important to know that your skin may develop the resistance to a specific product after some time so it’s best to use a few different ones to prevent that.

Battling against those bad looking pimples, acne and blackheads starts with acknowledging the fact that a good pore cleanser is something you must include in your everyday routine. The only way to have a clean spotless face is to regularly clean your pores and prevent the dirt, sweat and oil gathering inside of them thus forming those bad looking spots. An effective pore cleanser also prevents acne from popping out because an acne is nothing else than a clogged pore that somehow got infected. If this is your first time using a pore cleanser you might get confused about what should you get, because there is many different opinions about which way for cleansing pores is more effective. Many people prefer electronic pore cleansers while others are in favor of liquid pore cleansers. Which one is really better depends ,off course only on persons preferences but there are some general fact that could help you decide between those two.
Electronic pore cleansers are cosmetic gadgets that suck out the dirt, oil and sweat from your pores. Many people are skeptical about this devices because there may be a small possibility to bruise yourself in this process. If you really like the idea of getting an electronic pore cleanser, don’t be let this discourage you. If you carefully follow the instructions nothing bad can happen. You will probably be very pleased to know that this type of pore cleanser removes blackheads very effectively and deeply so it can prevent your future skin problems.
Liquid pore cleansers are usually mild cleaning formulas and their pore cleansing abilities are the result of micro granules that they contain. That granules are abrasive and they exfoliate the skin. When you apply the cleanser and rub it in your face, that granules scrape off the dead skin cells so after the use your skin is much brighter and softer. The truth, however, is that these granules can’t go deep into the pores and clean them completely. That especially goes if you have oily skin and large and deep pores. They do remove smaller blackheads but usually only scrape off the top part of the bigger ones so that pores still remain clogged.
If I could cast my vote, I would definitely give it to electronic pore cleansers. They are practical, efficient and some of them don’t cost more than a regular liquid pore cleanser.

Pore cleansers are designed for solving many skin problems like acne, dark spots, pimples etc. Pores on our face are openings of oil glands, and their size is a hereditary factor. That means that nothing you do will make them smaller. However, if pore cleanser is applied regularly it can reduce large pores. If you want to have a beautiful and youthful skin it’s very important to keep your pores clean. That means regularly removing the oil, dead cells and dirt that gets collected on your skin. Pore cleanser unclogs your pores and helps your skin “breathe”. When using a pore cleanser it is important to pay attention to the areas where the pores are very deep. Those areas are cheeks, nose, forehead and chin. Also, before using a pore cleanser, make sure you remove all makeup and dirt.
Pore cleansers can be found like:
-Facial cleansers (solutions) and acne astringents
-Suction- based electronic appliances
Facial cleansers usually contain exfoliating beads that scrub the dirt and the dead cells off the face. Most of them have a very mild formulation which is suitable for sensitive skin and everyday use. Facial cleanser is applied after a hot shower, when pores are open. After washing off the cleanser, it’s good to use a toner to tighten the pores and prevent them from collecting dirt. The finishing move is applying a good moisturizer.
Acne astringents usually contain alcohol which is used to reduce the inflammation and dry up the pimples. When choosing your pore cleanser have in mind also that alcohol has negative sides too. Although it can be useful when dealing with the inflammation (pimple), everyday use of alcohol-based pore cleanser can make you more problems. Alcohol dries the skin which makes the oil glands work extra to produce more oil. That, off course, results more skin problems
Suction based electronic appliances are maybe the best way of solving a problem with large pores. Electronic pore cleanser works by applying a low level of suction on the pores, removing the dirt and oil out of them, and making them clean and opened. These pore cleansers have two different suction caps. One is smaller and it’s used for the nose area, and the other is bigger and it’s used for cheeks and chin area. It is used on the clean skin, during or right after a hot bath. After the treatment, proper cleaning and moisturizing are a must.
