Latest Proactiv Reviews and Case Studies

Oct. 15, 2011 - PRLog -- Does Proactiv treatment kit work? Is it worth trying? Can it help you get rid of acne and pimples? Would it really make your skin radiant and pimple-free? Those are some of the questions many people ask about the Proactiv treatment product. NewsBreakthroughs' research on Proactiv published on http://newsbreakthroughs.com/proactive-reviews-our-test/1629/ revealed some interesting facts on who the product really is for, and who it's not, and what are the methods to get the best results from the product.

First of all, let's understand clearly how the product works. The major ingredient that eliminates acne and pimples in Proactiv is benzoyl peroxide. It's present in cleanser as well as the lotion. What Benzoyl Peroxide does is, it kills the 'acne bacteria', and the glycolic acid present in toner of Proactiv kit, sheds the excess skin cells. These excess skin cells are the ugly acne, and Benzoyl Peroxide brings an end to them. It's as simple as that.

So, is Proactiv really good? Is it worth a shot? Well, NewsBreakthrough's tests show positive results. The truth is, however, it may not work so well for people with skin that's too sensitive. If your skin happens to react with benzoyl peroxide, it can cause burning sensation and dryness. It's difficult to identify without tests whether your skin is sensitive or not. You should consult your dermatologist for that.

But yes, in many cases, it's noted Proactiv yields positive results. There's no doubt that Proactiv can actually be very beneficial for your skin, especially if you've tried other acne treatment solutions and nothing worked.

But wait, how are you supposed to deal with dryness? Even if your skin isn't sensitive, chances of you experiencing some dryness are inevitable. After all, it's a chemical acne treatment solution, with some side effects including skin dryness. The answer to that isn't as hard as you might think. In one word: Moisturizer. I've observed that when dryness bugged the patients I surveyed, moisturizer fixed it just fine.

What about the ones with a sensitive skin? Should they not use it? It's hard to answer it. You'll probably receive the best answer from your doctor. However, I should mention that NewsBreakthrough's testing has shown some interesting result on this. What the Health department of NewsBreakthroughs did, was instructed people with sensitive skin, to regularly stick to some of the basic good "skin habits". These included: washing face every 4 hours with a neat tissue paper, eating green foods, and decreasing the use of Proactiv. Interestingly, results dramatically improved. Even though they still faced redness to an extent, moisturizer and washing their face constantly did help.

So, what's the conclusion?

Like already stated, if you've tried other chemical acne solutions and nothing worked significantly for you, it's recommend you try it. If, however, you think your skin may be too sensitive to chemicals and your acne isn't that bad, you may want to try natural acne treatment solutions. That's not stopping you from still trying Proactiv, though. Because remember: a good moisturizer and good skin habits are important to back Proactiv's chemical activities.
