Having acne is bad in and of itself, but having back acne can REALLY be irritating. Although acne on the back is usually viewed in the same way as facial acne -- due to the fact that it develops in a similar way -- it is actually much different in terms of the intensity. The back has the largest sebaceous glands which can produce more severe lesions than the ones produced on the face. Therefore, the pain and discomfort from back acne is FAR greater than that of facial acne.
If you are interested in using a natural back acne scar treatment, then you'd likely want to choose treatments and remedies that have been proven effective, right? That said, here are some of most popular and incredibly effective back acne scar treatment methods available. All of them have provided good, if not impressive, results for people with mild to moderate back acne problems.
Tea Tree Oil: This is one natural product that is applied directly to the surface of the infected skin. What it does is penetrates the surface of the skin and controls the infection. It also helps to keep the skin supple and hydrated so it does not dry out and end up causing irritation which further leads to acne. There are now tea tree oil bath soap bars available that can be used for easy, at-home back acne scar treatment.
Lavender Essential Oil: This oil is also used on the skin surface and is very effective at stimulating circulation. It helps to naturally cleanse the tissues and is also a natural antiseptic that can be used to treat the wounds from acne; not to mention prevent any scarring that would more than likely occur after breakouts.
Witch Hazel: Witch hazel is actually an astringent that is helpful in cleaning the skin of acne problem areas. In addition, it also acts as a toner that can be applied for natural acne scar treatment.
Apple Cider Vinegar: When diluted with three parts water, apple cider vinegar can be used on back acne as a very effective astringent. Although, you need to make sure the concoction is not overly potent as to avoid any possible negative side-effects; as apple cider vinegar can be quite harsh.
Aloe Vera: When it comes to repairing the skin on the back and reducing redness, swelling, and scarring, Aloe Vera is a very, if not the most, effective treatment around.
Natural Supplements: There are several natural diet supplements that contain products like Brewer's Yeast, magnesium, potassium and zinc that help with natural back acne treatment. Take these supplements daily and you should start seeing results within a few weeks, if not a few days.
Do not worry about how bad the scars are on your back. After all, not only can you get rid of scarring with a natural back acne scar treatment, you can actually improve the overall look and feel of your skin!
