It's certainly no secret that there is an almost uncountable number of acne treatments out on the market. This also doesn't factor in the many folk, natural and home acne remedies that are being hawked So then just what is it that makes Obagi CLENZIderm so different?
What Makes So Many Acne Treatments Alike?
There is an answer to that question but before I go into it, I'd like to expand on another related topic. That is, what makes so many of the common treatment products and systems so alike? What do they share in general and also what do they share specifically?
Acne Treatments In General Really Haven't Changed
The answer to the first question, is that in general, treatments really haven't changed. Why should they when acne really is a passing condition. That is that as people age, it tends to go away. Now if people had acne for life, they would need to see new developments from time to time.
Most Common Acne Treatments Have One thing in Common
The answer to the second question, is that the one thing that most treatments have in common, is that they tend to share the same basic ingredients and benzoyl peroxide is one of the most popular. The reason for this is simple and that reason is that it's long since been proven effective.
The Two Major Problems With Benzoyl Peroxide
However; all along there has been two major problems with benzoyl peroxide. One is its side effects that can leave skin dry, red and itchy. The other is that it's not water soluble. Rather, in an treatment, benzoyl peroxide is more like a finely ground powder.
Obagi CLENZIderm Uses New Micronized Benzoyl Peroxide
The problem with that, is that it inhibits it from getting into pores where it functions to kill acne causing bacteria. Sure some gets in but not nearly enough. Obagi CLENZIderm products on the other hand use patented technology to create a micronized form of benzoyl peroxide with granules that are 10,000 times smaller.
