Vitamin for Acne?
Hi, i'm just starting to get whiteheads for a couple of months, and while it is still mild at this point, I'm definitely starting to get very self-conscious about it. I've been using cleansers and such, but the result is very slow (I expected it to take time)...but I've heard that taking some vitamins would help clear your skin (or least partially help)...if I only have money to buy one kind of vitamin...which one should i get?

Your skin is your body’s largest organ and will show some disturbance in the form of acne, rashes etc. when something else is going on inside your body. Vitamin E, zinc, D, and A will all improve your appearance to an extent, but unless the rest of your diet,your sleep, your intake of fluids are optimum, you will always have some type of skin "problem". This could easily be some sort of allergy, either contact dermatitis, or internal. Make a diary of what is coming into contact with your body ie. laundry detergent, cleansers, perfumes, etc. and what you are eating. You may be able to make some sort of connection with your skin outbreaks. Continually changing your products will also make your skin rebel. Olive oil and grapeseed oil are wonderful products for skin, they both contain vitamin E and fatty acids, good for both topical application and digestion.

Go to a dermotologist. I take a pill called Minocycline and it works wonders =]

Use Vitamin C! It works. Crush several tablets and mix with lemon juice to create a thick paste lather it on generously and allow it to dry on your face. Wash off. Repeat for a couple of days until you see improvement. I learned this from a doctor in Taiwan. The paste will also tighten pores and give a more resilient texture. It also some how brightens or slightly lightens skin tone, I don’t know why.

Here are three of the more popular methods that you could decide to use.
1. Intake of Vitamin A, C, and E. Vitamin E is a natural antioxidant that would help the body get rid of unwanted free radicals. Free radicals are foreign particles that result from exposure to air pollution, peroxides and radiation. A better alternative is alpha-tocopheral which is a potent form of Vitamin E. Vitamins A and C, on the other hand, help regenerate skin cells. These combines would allow your acne scars to heal faster. These vitamins can be derived from their natural sources, or from widely-available supplements.
2. Intake of collagen supplements. Collagen supplements stimulate the body’s production of collagen. Collagen is an insoluble fibrous protein that expedites the repair of dead tissues and skin cells. As with the vitamins enumerated above, collagen would also help your acne scars heal at a faster rate. Collagen supplements come in ointments, or through laser technology using soft, red light.
3. Good skin care. Acne scars can heal naturally, minus other intervening conditions like diabetes or some form of skin disease. Healing time is estimated at 6 to 12 months. The important thing to remember as you wait for your acne scars to heal is that you shouldn’t do anything that would aggravate the situation. Proper skin care can help your acne scars heal properly, and perhaps even faster.
