Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
This is from the Health 24 website:
"It is important to get eight hours' sleep - not only for your general health, but also for your skin. In order to build a healthy immune system, you need your rest. Although enough sleep cannot prevent acne, it can help fight infection and aid recovery."
Also, if you want to prevent breakouts or get rid of ones you already have, here are some things that can help (other than things like Proactive or other medicines you can get from your dermatologist:
-Although sweating can make acne worse, exercise reduces stress and stress can cause acne.
-If you use acne products, don't switch products a lot...stick to one for at least three weeks at a time unless you have bad side effects from it. They need time to work.
-Don't believe that being in the sun reduces acne...there's no proof of that. In fact, the sun quickens aging and increases your risk of skin cancer...so the cons outweigh the pros.
-Do NOT squeeze zits. It just spreads the bacteria and makes it worse.
I used to have acne problems. I went through about 5 different medications, including Proactive, that didn't work for me (I have very dry skin) and now I've settled on this Brevoxyl-4 face wash once a day (from the dermatologist) and I just stopped taking Minocycline, which definitely helped. It might be a good idea to see your dermatologist about your breakouts.

Very true. Sleeping is healthy for your body, and helps to prevent acne. I don't know how, lol, but it does.
Hope I helped :)

It's true, alright. You need to be all around healthy for your skin to be healthy. If you're tired, it's going to make it hard for your body to fight infections, and that makes it easier for breakouts to occur.
