How To Get Rid of Cystic Acne
I suffered from break outs on and off since I was 14 years old. I felt shame and embarrassment and used to cry myself to sleep at night asking, “why is this happening to me?” I would look around at other girls my age that had beautiful clear skin with such envy.
At an early age as soon as my skin started to break out my mother took me to our family doctor who prescribed birth control pills. He told me that the pill would balance my hormones and my skin would clear up. Also, I should mention that I was an obsessive-compulsive worrier and people pleaser with little to no self-esteem. Will explain how this fits in later!
When more break outs occurred, she took me to a Dermatologist. The Dermatologist prescribed every topical cream on the market, antibiotics and Accutane (x2). Nothing worked!
ANTIBIOTICS AND THE PILL MAKE ACNE WORSE LONG TERM
My skin cleared up in high school which I thought at the time was from the use of the pill. There were break outs here and there but they were temporary. In other words, the break outs would heal up and disappear, once again giving me the confidence I needed to enjoy life.
However, what I didn't know then is that antibiotic use and the pill make the liver toxic and cause long-term damage. Please don't get me wrong. I do believe there is a place for some pharmaceuticals like antibiotics but only if it's short term or life saving.
Truthfully, Western Medicine doesn't have a cure for acne. They believe pimples are caused by hormone imbalances and that is why most people get acne during puberty and menopause. Thus, they often prescribe the pill and other synthetic hormone medications to try and help people. But, the meds are a temporary fix and can cause more damage in the long run. This method doesn't cure acne or get to the root of the cause. It makes it worse in the long run.
After taking the BCP for 18 years, I stopped at 33 because I wanted to have a baby. Break outs did occur because my body was forced to find its own rhythm again, but it cleared up months later. Years passed with clear skin, but something changed when I turned 41.
I began to feel stuck in my job and a house I didn't want to be in. Ugly memories from my past started to surface and my dog that I loved like my child passed away. I was devastated and experiencing severe emotional stress and that is when the acne cysts started to appear on my face.
By the way, I started getting cystic acne while still using acne wash, benzyl peroxide and salicylic acid on face (claimed to be the guaranteed acne fighter). So, there you have it acne is caused from within and no matter what you use on your skin they come!
Long term consistent emotional stress can manifest physically voila, acne! (or for others disease)
HOW I DISCOVERED HOW TO GET RID OF ACNE
Acne sufferers can relate to feelings of sadness, shame and self-loathing. It was difficult leaving the house most days because I didn't have the courage to face people. Thank goodness for my husband. He was an incredible support system. He was always making excuses for me while attending social events solo. However, no matter how many times he told me I was beautiful inside and out it didn't matter. I felt shame and self loathing. The more I thought about how I looked the more pimples I got and they just kept coming.
I often pleaded asking the universe for help. Finally, my prayers were answered at Christmas. Gratitude!
My husband bought me a book called the Liver Rescue, by Medical Medium, Anthony Williams. The root cause of acne was in this book. I couldn't believe after decades of trial and error; Anthony Williams knew how to get rid of it. To purchase Liver Rescue click here.
WHAT CAUSES BLEMISHES
According to the Medical Medium, When acne is present, it means that the liver is harboring a chronic, low grade level of Streptococcus. Strep lives in the organ when the liver holds an abundance of food for it. Antibiotics and the pill are the Strep's fuels of choice – and the liver's greatest enemies. As it happens, they're frequently handed out to those who suffer from acne, along with other medications that can be hard for the liver to bear. It can become an endless cycle, with antibiotics feeding the very strep that causes acne and acne causing the dermatologist to write a prescription for more antibiotics.
Anthony also disputes the theory that hormones are responsible for pimples. In the book, he explains in great detail that the immunity takes a dip during puberty and menopause which allows bacteria to form.
He continues to explain “that even if we never took antibiotics as a child, all of the meat we consume contains hormones and antibiotics that were once injected into the living animal.”
When the liver gets overloaded from meds and any additional stress, negative emotions, problematic foods such as Eggs, Dairy, Cheese, Hormones from Food, High Fat Foods, Alcohol, Excessive Vinegar, Caffeine, Gluten, Corn, Canola Oil, Pork Products, pathogens, chemicals, toxic heavy metals and excess adrenaline daily, it feeds the strep bacteria causing acne for some people and a long list of multiple diseases for others.
EMOTIONAL STRESS CAN LEAD TO BREAK OUTS
All of the pieces of the puzzle were fitting together. When I was a child, I had multiple strep infections forcing me to take antibiotics often. I ate a lot of problematic foods and had consistent emotional stress which causes an influx of the bad hormones and can be the most harmful because it's hard to control your emotions. If the body is under consistent stress, it works extremely hard to maintain balance and immunity. So, eventually the liver becomes compromised causing acne for some people or various diseases in others. This is why I still had break outs while on the pill and off the pill.
After reading the Liver Rescue in two days, I wanted to share it with everyone suffering from acne or other diseases. Thank You to Anthony Williams!!
HOW TO GET RID OF CYSTIC ACNE NATURALLY
Over the next 5 months I got busy! There was a part of me that felt sad giving up my favourite foods. But then I thought, “did Hugh Jackman feel sad restricting his diet and working out hours every day in order to play the role of Wolverine? Hell no, he fulfilled his passion and made millions of dollars.” Stepping out of the comfort zone can feel uncomfortable, but that's when you know it's good for you!
The Liver Rescue was my saving grace but it was something even more powerful than just the diet, that ultimately got rid of my acne.
1. Eliminate All Problematic Foods
Liver Rescue is a wonderful guide that provides details of why problematic foods are harmful. He provides a list of all of the healing foods, supplements and recipes to improve your liver.
I was more than happy to eliminate all of the problematic foods because I knew in my heart this was the answer. I had been living what I thought was a healthy lifestyle for many years. Often experimenting with nutrition to see what would work best for me.
Year's prior, I had even removed refined sugar and dairy from my diet (except once a week on a treat day) but it wasn't enough. I was still eating gluten, eggs, meat and caffeine; feeding the strep inside my body and in turn the cysts on my face were growing.
Honestly, all I had to do was look in the mirror and review all of the positive before & after's the people were posting on Medical Medium's Instagram and my mind was set. If these people could do it, I can do it!
Problematic Foods
- Eggs
- Dairy
- Cheese
- Hormones from Food
- High Fat Foods, Alcohol
- Excessive Vinegar
- Caffeine
- Gluten
- Corn
- Canola Oil
- Pork Products
- Meats that contain Hormones and Antibiotics
2. Incorporate Healing Foods
This part was fun because Medical Medium informs you of the nutritional value of fruits, vegetables, herbs, supplements, natural sugars and how they benefit you.
The list is long but I didn't let that intimidate me. I looked at it as a positive because I had so many yummy options. I believed this was going to work because it has worked for millions of others.
- Drink 16 oz of celery juice every morning on an empty stomach. Celery inhibits the growth of viruses, bacteria and fungus. Its cluster salts remove poisons and toxins inside the liver, builds the immune system, improves digestion and much more.
- Hydrate with plenty of water to flush toxins.
- Eat an array of vegetables and fruit while following his guidance of when and how much. (page 283)
3. Incorporate Healing Herbs And Supplements
To take it a step further he lists all of the herbs and supplements suited to heal a specific disease. (Page 298)
The cost for quality supplements can add up. So, I decided to incorporate only 1 supplement at a time to see if I had improvement before investing in another, to save money. Honestly, it took approximately 5 supplements to finally get results. Now that my skin is clear, I have slowly weaned myself off of some of them and opted for more herbal teas. They are cheaper!
4. Meditation & Visualization Gets To The Emotional Root of Acne
Meditation and visualization are what ultimately healed me. Meditation is the most effective stress reliever. It has the potential to change the quality of your life.
At least 20 minutes every morning is all that is needed for newcomers. Meditation is like exercising for the first time. You improve with daily practice. With the help of Dr. Joe Dispenza's guided meditations, I was able to improve each day. When I say improve, I mean actually quiet my mind and feel fantastic when it was over.
Joe Dispenza is a doctor, scientist and a modern day mystic. Through Meditation and visualization, he has helped countless people heal themselves of illness.
He had a severe spinal cord injury in his 20's and was told he would never walk again. He chose not to believe the doctors and spent 3 hours a day meditating and visualizing himself healing. He was walking within the year.
Knowing this, I made it a 10-minute ritual to begin my day visualizing that my skin was clear, my body was healthy.
How To Cleanse Your Skin
It is a good idea to have a skin cleansing regime. Even though acne is caused from within it's still important to exfoliate your skin and kill the bacteria that can cause pores to clog.
Morning
Step 1. Wash with Raw Honey. Raw Honey contains antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties (not grocery store honey). It removes dirt without stripping your skin of impurities. This is the raw honey I use purchase here.
Step 2. Apply a small amount of Paula's Choice Benzyl Peroxide all over the face. Benzyl Peroxide helps to prevent pores from becoming blocked and targets bacteria that causes acne. Wait a few minutes for absorption before applying your moisturizer.
Benzyl peroxide is powerful and works well, but can be very drying for the skin. My goal is to eventually phase it out and only use the raw honey and hemp seed oil.
Step 3. Pour a dime size amount of Organic Hemp Seed Oil purchase it here in your hand. Rub hands together and dab it all over the face. Wait a few moments for absorption. If your skin feels very oily, I lightly dab a towel on my face to absorb the access oil before applying makeup.
Organic Hemp seed oil balances the skins natural oils which helps with premature aging. Like an anti-inflammatory, it calms the skin with 0% chance of clogging pores compared to other oils and moisturizers.
Night
Step 1. Repeat wash with Raw Honey.
Step 2. Pour Paula's Choice Salicylic Acid onto a makeup pad and apply it all over the face. Wait a few minutes for absorption, before applying the Organic Hemp Seed Oil. Paula's Choice Salicylic Acid exfoliates the skin while helping to unclog the pores and prevent lesions.
Step 3. The same principals apply when using the Organic Hemp Seed Oil before bed. Except, I don't dab off the excess oil.
Use A Derma Roller – For Acne Scarring
Derma Rollers work well for acne scarring, stretch marks and wrinkle prevention. In fact, look at the amazing results at Beauty By Anne-Marie. She is not a medical professional, but has been using a derma roller for years and her skin looks amazing. She provides a great demonstration on how to use it! I recommend using Organic Hemp Seed Oil afterward because of the healing elements and anti-inflammatory qualities.
The Derma Roller comes in various sizes starting from .50 – 1.5. Purchase the Derma Roller I use here it is a .50.
It's best to use the derma roller in the evening so you have ample time to heal over night. FYI, do not use if you have a breakout because it can spread bacteria and make it worse!
Step 1. Wash your face with Raw Honey
Step 2. Apply the Derma Roller and go over each spot 5-10 times. Watch the video demonstration before using it. Make sure you wash the roller with rubbing alcohol after every use to avoid infection.
Step 3. Wait a few moments after the process and then apply a small amount of Organic Hemp Seed Oil on your face.
