A Parent's Guide to Teen Acne

If you want to help your teenage son or daughter rid themself of acne, you must first stop them from using a sibling’s acne treatment. You need to know that gender plays a big role in acne and acne treatment. It will do no good for your son to use his sister’s treatment, or for your daughter to use her brother’s.

They require a gender-specific acne treatment. I suggest CTRL. CTRL is a new and gender-specific acne treatment that has a separate 2-step system for each gender. As opposed to 3 and 4 step treatments, this one is much easier to fit into your schedule.

Also, it is paraben free. Parabens are potentially dangerous preservatives that have been found intact within breast cancer tumors. Parabens are not something you want your child to be applying to his or her face day after day after day, especially at a young age.

Dan,
I started out using over the counter acne medications but they just didn’t seem to cut it. I’ve heard a lot of buzz on acne blogs about CTRL so I decided I’m going to give it a shot. I recommend checking out the site, there’s a lot of valuable info. http://ctrlacne.com/male-acne/male-acne-treatment-system.html

what causes acnen

I think parents need to check behind their teens more often concerning hygiene. Teens don’t shower like they’re supposed to. Teens don’t eat the right foods. They are addicted to junk foods. Teens don’t keep clean bed sheets and pillow cases. The brothers and sisters may possibly share the same towels and wash cloths. They don’t wash their hands enough and are always touching their faces with dirty hands. Acne boils down to hygiene. I think it’s preventable if parents check behind their teens hygiene more often and stop running back and forth to dermatologists that only prescribe medications to put on dirty faces and bodies.

This is a great site — quality information and unbiased — thanks!

I agree with the whole gender differences thing but I’m also concerned about ingredients that are dangerous. What should I avoid?

The biggest problem facing children these days is thier diet. It’s the primary cause behind acne problems. Having said that, our household eats primarily organic, we all excercise regularly together and are perfect weight for our size. Hygene is also not an issue. However, both my daughter developed some fairly severe acne and we tried all types of remedies. I’m not saying any one is better than another, but we got onto acnevolution and it seemed to be the answer for us. I’m not saying it will work for everyone, but it worked for us.
all the best.

Am I really at risk using a product that contains Benzyl Peroxide? Also, what is the deal with Parabens?

Parabens are a type of harmful preservatives that in recent studies have been linked with certain hormone caused cancers (i.e. breast cancer)

So the skincare products I am using are actually harmful? Is CTRL Skin Care safe?

Yes it doesn’t use parabens or BP so it is much better for your skin

I had a horrible experience with Proactiv. is CTRL gentle? I dont want anything that will burn, dry me out or irritate my skin.

CTRL is much more gentle than Proactiv. CTRL’s active ingredient (Salicylic Acid) moisturizes your skin as it heals and protects your skin.

Yeah it has all natural ingriedents

Has anyone tried CTRL? Would you recommend it?

Yeah it works great it cleared me up in less than a week
