Over the Counter Products
Q:
I've tried a million over the counter products for acne and they work for a
while and then they stop. I've tried oil-free cleansers, gels, cover-ups, and
makeup - all of which claim they help acne-prone skin. But they're not; what
am I doing wrong?
A:
You're not doing anything wrong except wasting your money. The products
you're buying don't work. Even though they are labeled oil-free, they really
aren't oil-free. All products with the exception of water, are oil-based.
Just like in the foods you eat, there are good oils and bad oils. The products that
you have been using are full of bad oils and are producing new acne, not
helping it. Over the counter eye shadows and lipsticks are fine, but when it
comes to make-up and cleansers, the stuff you've been buying just isn't
helping.
Q:
What about all the acne soaps and astringents I use? I wash and scrub my
face constantly, but I still break out. Why?
A:
You can scrub all you want but it won't make a difference. Acne forms inside
your hair follicles which are below the surface. The same thing goes for
drying-out your skin with alcohol or astringents. All this does is clean the top
layer of your skin, but it doesn't go inside the clogged hair follicles to clean
them out. It's important to realize that your pimples are forming beneath the
top layers of your skin and that over the counter products can't help you
there.
The Acne Treatment Clinic offers topical medications which go deep into the
clogged hair follicles to clean them out and prevent new pimples from forming.
Whether you suffer from severe acne or occasional breakouts, our products
work quickly giving you positive results.
Q:
I've tried just about everything for my skin. What do you put in your
products that make them so different?
A:
It's not what we put in them, it's what we don't put in them. Our products
are formulated without adding oils to interfere with their effectiveness.
The Acne Treatment Clinic has a safe, effective, and inexpensive skin care
program that works. There are no side-effects, no sun-sensitivity, no pills,
and no gimmicks.
Q:
I'm very skeptical about new products, especially since everything I've used
up till now hasn't worked. What is your success rate? How long have you
been in business and most of all, do you have any idea how I feel!?
A:
I know these
products work because I suffered from acne for 25 years. It destroyed my
self-confidence, made me feel unattractive and was just plain ruining my life!
After graduating from the University of California at Berkeley, I did some research, hired
a chemist, and opened the Acne Treatment Clinic. We have been in
Northern California for over ten years and have successfully treated over
5,000 men and women of all ages. When many of our graduating high school
seniors went off to college, we started sending their products to them by mail.
Word spread on campuses all across the state and country and soon we
opened our mail order division. Now with the Internet, we are able to send
our products all over the world. I must have the most rewarding job in the
world, because I know exactly how it feels to have acne and know exactly
how great it is to clear it up!
Q:
Do all your clients use the same products?
A:
No. Everyone's skin is different. That's why the Acne Treatment Clinic offers
a variety of products, all formulated for specific skin types and problems. Many
factors determine your treatment which is customized for you. That's why we ask
you to please fill out the questionnaire on the How to Order
page so we can personally help you.
