HOW DOES HOMEOPATHY TREATMENT WORK FOR ACNE:
1. Homeopathy does not cause scarring, or it minimizes scarring.This means, that whatever homeopathic medicines are indicated for acne, they will also work as a preventive option and protect the lesions from developing further to the point of scarring.Also, if scarring is already present, it will minimize further scarring and reduce the existing scar.
2. Homeopathy has special medicines for the black marks and black spots that usually accompany acne lesions. Usually, the indicated homeopathy medicines themselves have a capacity for preventing and reducing or minimizing these scars/marks , and for the existing markswe can opt for the special or specific remedies.
3. Homeopathic medicines do NOT change the natural beneficial condition of the skin. This means, that homeopathic medicines will NOT artificially cause dryness of the skin, if your skin is oily, so that your skin retains its natural moisture and the beneficial oils. This is a very important point, because your skin natural conditionand state is not interfered with, and there is no damage done to the skin or there is no artificially induced change or chemical imbalance in the functioning of the cells of the skin layers.
4. Homeopathy does NOT make the skin sensitive to any factors, such as sunlight or external environment , or external application, etc. Usually the other treatments make your skin sensitive and such sensitivity is harmful for skin in the long term. Also , such sensitivity and overuse of harsh treatments make the skin predisposed to cancer. However, with homeopathy treatment you can be assured of no side effect of such kind whatsoever.
5. Homeopathy does NOT suppress the acne lesions.We do not recommend external ointments and applications for acne lesions. In a few cases, organic applications (free of chemicals or only containing homeopathic ingredients) may be prescribed if indicated. However, those are only given as adjuvant to the main treatment, that consists of homeopathic medicines prescribed to be taken orally. This non suppression theory of homeopathy works so well that the acne lesions disappear from the root, so it’s a permanent result, and not just disappearance of the lesions only to come back later. Homeopathy heals the natural capacity of the body so as to stop the mechanism of appearance of the acne.It works on the internal causes and removes them from the root, so instead of focusing only on the lesions, Homeopathy treatment focuses on the bodys internal mechanisms and corrects them from within.
6. Many cosmetologists, beauticians, dermatologists and qualified skin care professionals opt for homeopathy as the primary or adjuvant line of treatment for their patients because of the ability of homeopathic medicines as treating from the root, being harmless and free of side effects.Depending on the case, non invasive cosmetology treatments may be combined with homeopathy treatments to give the best results for cosmetic purposes.
