What are Blemishes?
• Blemishes can be a nightmare to most people,
particularly when they are getting old and the
presence of aging spots is apparently
noticeable.
• Blemishes are the term used to describe the
dark spots or skin discoloration. Blemishes
embrace various types, resulting from many
other factors, not just only acne. For instance,
people can be born with blemishes such as
port-wine stains or birthmarks; the others might
focus on some other common forms including
sun spots, liver spots, freckles, moles and skin
tags. Blemishes can vary in size, in which some
grow pretty big and occupy a larger part on your
skin surface.
• Blemishes do not exclude any part of the body;
however, the most common places that
blemishes appear very often are face,
shoulders, neck and back.
What cause Blemishes?
• One of the leading causes of blemishes
is the breakouts of acne. Also, there
emerge other factors such as genetics,
imbalance of hormones, poor diet with lack of
skin care as well as aging and UV rays
exposure. Do remember that excessive
usage of comestic products can cause the
same problem.
• Because of such harmful factors, the
presence of blemishes enables to completely
spoil your look. Most of the teenagers and
even adults have acne and skin blemishes on
their faces or other skin parts. Since this skin
problem possibly makes you feel uglier, it can
also lead to the loss of confidence.
Therefore, it is a wish for people to remove
blemishes immediately.
What are the symtoms of Blemishes?
In many cases, a blemish; however, is a
symptom of an inflammation or an infection
occurring on the skin. Some common symptoms
of blemishes include:
• Presence of bumps, following with pus, mostly
on the face
• Pustules that look stretched and painful
• Skin discolorations, mainly in the winter or the
spring
• Brown and dark patches on the skin
• Modification in the texture of the skin
• Extra itchiness and dryness in the affected skin
caused by a blemish.
Other symptoms of blemishes can also include
whiteheads, blackheads, pustules and pimples
as they occur due to clogged pores.
Remember that there is no need to confirm your
suffering of blemishes when all these symptoms
appear on your body. A few people can
experience all of these symptoms but you might
see nothing more than the occurrence of bumps
or brown and dark-colored spots on the skin.
