Acne pimples or zits pop up at the wrong times and in the wrong places.
We feel embarrassed when we think people are focusing only on the blemishes on our face.
That may start the search to find a remedy that will get rid of our acne.
While we take that journey that may last for years before it finally ends, we will have our successes and failures.
Along the way, many of us may get caught up in the emotional appeal of acne products pitched to us on television.
Those half hour infomercials are very persuasive at convincing us to purchase their kits and paying for a new supply every two or three months.
Famous celebrities, singers and actors in these infomercials talk about how the product they are endorsing has helped them clear up their acne.
They'll even show MDs who make these products appear legitimate.
To balance out the entire presentation, interviews of customers give the acne product credit for clearing up their pimples.
Before and after photos prove to us that it works.
What these infomercials don't show you are the people who tried the product but had no success with it.
There might have been complaints about the side effects.
We'll never really know for sure how many people liked the product, or how many asked for a refund.
These infomercials also fail to tell you that the active ingredients found in these anti zit products are in over-the-counter products that you could buy at a fraction of the price at the local drugstore.
You'll have to discover on your own that these TV acne products are ineffective on the more serious and severe acne such as cystic or nodular acne.
For severe casesof acne, you'll need to see a dermatologist and take stronger medications that require a prescription.
Conclusion:Get a doctors advice first before you think about buying that cure you saw on TV or in an advertisement.
First, you need to know if what you have is really acne.
Your doctor can tell you what type of acne you have.
Different acne requires different treatments.
Those infomercials can't possibly diagnosis your true problem and tell you what you need to control it.
Remember, marketing experts, who want to maximize their own revenues and profits, created those infomercials.
Sure, you get a product that may work, but you could be paying less for the non-celebrity endorsed and non-glamorous but effective products available over the counter to help you treat your acne.
