Brilio.net - Acne is a common problem that often occurs in teenagers and adults. This facial problem causes discomfort on the skin. This is because acne makes your skin feel painful and makes you want to squeeze it at any time so that it disappears quickly. However, these bad habits can trigger other new problems. Therefore, you have to get rid of acne the right way. Before discussing it further, you need to know several causes of acne.
Acne is a skin condition that occurs when the hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. These oil glands, which are usually called sebaceous glands, produce oil (sebum) which is useful for moistening the skin and hair. But when it produces too much oil, it causes these hair follicles to become clogged, creating a good environment for bacteria to grow.
Apart from being caused by excessive sebum production, acne can appear due to hormonal changes. This condition usually occurs during pregnancy, the teenage phase, and during menstruation. This situation can overstimulate the oil glands, ultimately increasing the risk of acne on the face.
There is one trick you can do to get rid of acne. This trick was shared by a doctor named Doctor Ema. He showed how to get rid of acne using only natural ingredients, which was uploaded on his YouTube channel, namely dr.emasuperr, Wednesday (28/2). In the video, which is several minutes long, he appears to be using one type of plant, namely aloe vera.

Aloe vera contains anti-inflammatory compounds that can help reduce inflammation and redness associated with acne. By reducing inflammation, aloe vera can help reduce the size and severity of acne. Meanwhile, the antibacterial properties of aloe vera can kill the bacteria that cause acne.
"The acne has started to fade and disappear, here too. For those of you who want to get rid of it using natural ingredients, I really recommend genuine aloe vera," explained Dr. Ema, quoted by briliobeauty.net from the YouTube channel dr.emasuperr, Wednesday (28/2).
Being able to hydrate with this water content means aloe vera can moisturize the skin naturally. Topical use of aloe vera can help maintain skin moisture, preventing dry skin which can trigger excessive oil production and clogged pores. On the other hand, the natural cleansing properties of aloe vera remove various dirt, oil and dead skin cells well.
"Aloe vera is considered a perennial plant that can get rid of wounds. The various ingredients in aloe vera include anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiseptic which are really good for getting rid of acne. This can stimulate the formation of collagen on the face and make the skin more moisturized," he explained.
In addition, aloe vera has the ability to speed up the healing process of wounds on the skin. Well, this ability helps reduce acne healing time, remove scars, and improve the appearance of a brighter face.
"There are several things to pay attention to in getting rid of acne on the face using aloe vera. So there are three parts to aloe vera, namely the skin. The middle part is considered as a layer, as a protector before getting to the inside. Now, this middle part is what should not be touched on the face. "Because anthraquinones were used as laxatives in ancient times. But this can cause cancer and irritation on the face. That's why this has to be cleaned first," he said.
