Best acne products for older skin
- Retinoids: Prescription-strength retinoids can work wonders for acne, by increasing the skin cell turnover to unclog the debris in your pores that attracts acne-causing bacteria. The added benefit of retinoid use is that, as it stimulates skin cell turnover to clear acne, it is also stimulating collagen turnover. Collagen turnover results in healthier collagen and elastin in the skin, which leads to fewer fine lines and wrinkles in the future.
- Clarisonic cleansing brush: The Clarisonic brush can be left in the shower and used every morning to clean your skin. The ultrasonic oscillations of the brush clean out your pores six times better than traditional facial cleansing. Additionally, clean pores means smoother skin and tighter-appearing pores, for healthier and more radiant-appearing skin.
- Tria Blue Light: The Tria at-home Blue Light is an antibacterial light can be used to the skin in the evenings to decrease inflammation and kill the p. acnes bacteria on the skin that leads to the formation of acne.
