How acne is best treated

The goals of treatment are to heal existing lesions, stop new lesions from forming, prevent scarring, and minimize the psychological stress and embarrassment caused by this condition.

The key to treating acne effectively is to raise the Oxygen pressure within the skin.

Dr Paul Herzog, who developed the formula for the Karin Herzog skin care line, was the first, and remains the only Doctor, to have successfully stabilised Oxygen In a cream format. When applied to the skin this formula raises Oxygen levels sufficiently to allow the skin to safely and effectively detox. Using NO preservatives this cream is reliable gentle and kind and so suitable to all skin types and works by delivering back to he skin what age and modern living strip from it on a daily basis.

During his research Dr Herzog was able to demonstrate that it is almost impossible for a well oxygenated tissue to become infected, since Oxygen destroys bacteria. In this way we know that every application of any of the Oxygen formulas within the Karin Herzog range will help destroy unwanted bacteria before it has a chance to multiply.

With every application the oxygen levels can be raised for up to 8 hours allowing for a deep cleanse of the tissues. After 8 hours this Oxygen has been used by the skin and so it is vitally important that anyone with a history of breakouts apply the cream to clean skin TWICE PER DAY.

Treatments for blackheads, whiteheads, congestion and Acne.

If the skin is congested but does not have and active pustules there are things you can do to help get back clarity and vibrancy to the complexion. By delivering oxygen to a congested skin you can follow a safe and hygienic home extraction program. We su0pply you with step by step instructions on how to achieve professional salon results at home, but please follow the instruction correctly or if in doubt pop along to a Herzog qualified salon where the pore-draw facial can be performed by expert hands. The reason we can offer a better than average result on home extraction is that an application of Herzog’s oxygen can help disinfect the skin surface to create a safer and more sterile environment ready for extraction. In addition: when applying the Oxygen via the cream the action within the skin as the oxygen penetrates is ideally suited to facilitate easier extraction.

NO FORCE SHOULD BE APPLIED WHEN PERFORMING EXTRACTION:

The penetration of the oxygen gas and the detoxifying properties of the O2 will help to push unwanted blackheads and whiteheads to the surface of the skin and allow a much lighter pressure to be applied when extraction. Any deeper routed blockages and impurities are destroyed and washed downwards towards the lymph system. This is why it is essential to have a clear and stimulated lymph system for quicker and more effective treatment of acne. After extraction, Herzog’s formulas help to heal and repair. The anti-septic properties help to eliminate the risk of contamination or cross infection. Oxygen also helps prevent scaring.

When the problem is more severe and pustules have developed Herzog really demonstrates its advantages over many typical and traditional preparations. Many common methods of treating acne include Topical creams with acids and various chemical ingredients that help to strip the skin of oil and dry the breakout.

The problem with these is that if you dry the skin out too much you will panic it to produce additional sebum as the skin gets the message it needs additional lubrication. A catch 22 situation can arise where you actually perpetuate and prolong the problem long term. We believe in a more natural and much gentler approach.

Acids such as Benzyl peroxide, Salicylic acid are common place. Karin Herzog treats acne without acid. It is detoxifying natural oxygen that is delivered to the skin, that enables it to regulate and balance and destroy the bacteria that causes the acne.. Additionally the healing properties from oxygen provide a solid foundation for skin repair and will help reduce swelling and scar tissue.

It is the only product that works by giving back to the skin what age and modern living takes out. These safe and natural products contain ingredients that your body recognises and can benefit from.
