| Naturopathy | |
Naturopathy – natural approach to help treat acne. Skin pores tends to open when heated. Apply warm water to your skin to open up the pores. This would allow oil and dead skin cells to flow out more freely. Ideally the application of warm compresses up to 3 or 4 times a day may help in clearing the acne. However be aware that to some people, humidity can aggravate acne. So if you applied warm compresses to your pimple and it gets worse you are one of those few and it is recommended that you stop and look for another alternative treatment.
