The one thing that a dermatologist will unlikely tell you is that the medicine he is giving you will ultimately make your acne worse.

Take for example the antibiotic that he has given you. Sure, it seems to work for a while, then all of a sudden the acne comes back, and worse than before.

Why is this?

The reason for this is that the bacteria in your skin have developed resistance to the antibiotic and an increased dose will do nothing to make the bacteria go away.

Additionally, with the antibiotic killing all the bacteria in your body, it is killing more good bacteria than ‘bad’ bacteria.

The good bacteria are essential for the health of your gastrointestinal tract. Good bacteria ensure that the yeast Candida is kept to a minimum. Yet when you kill all these bacteria in your gastrointestinal tract, you are giving the Candida the green light to explode in population.

When Candida explodes in population, there are many consequences for your body. Thrush is the most common example. When you allow the population of Candida to soar in your gastrointestinal tract, the Candida will explode in population everywhere else in, or on, your body. Candida will also grow in your skin and cause acne.

If you take antibiotics to kill bacteria, you are guaranteed to make your acne worse.

There is actually no need to take antibiotics to kill bacteria in order to eliminate your acne.

Why is this?

Because the bacteria in your skin does not cause acne. It is one of the great modern myths that bacteria causes acne. This is simply not true.

The bacteria in your skin are completely harmless. Only when you inflict a wound to your skin do you notice how important it is to clean the wound in order for the wound not to become infected by bacteria. But the bacteria do not cause the wound in the first place!

And it is exactly the same with acne. An acne sufferer’s skin produces excessive oil and this excessive oil causes the skin to rupture. The bacteria then infect this rupture just as they do with any wound. The body responds by sending in thousands of white blood cells to kill the bacteria.

The resulting swelling from the white blood cells is acne. If it is deep under the skin, it is cystic acne or if the white puss is visible beneath the skin it is a whitehead.

The best way to prevent acne is to prevent the damage occurring to your skin in the first place. Doing this will not require antibiotics, just a change in your diet.
