How Chili Peppers Can Reduce Acne Scars

I was surprised to discover recently that almost 60 million Americans suffer from acne and that 1/3 of these cases, that is, 20 million people end up with scars due to the condition. The good news is that there are now many safe and natural products that reduce acne scars, including an amazing new treatment based primarily on pepper. Yes, that’s right, the chili-based facial wash has been found to clear acne in just a few days of use and without a burning sensation or watery eyes, as you would expect from this fiery substance.

Unlike many natural remedies for severe acne, which can take weeks or even months to have a noticeable effect, capsaicin-based products have an almost immediate impact on most forms of acne. Being a safe and natural product, most chili creams have few harsh chemicals and additives that keep these products safer and cheaper. It is beneficial for you and your skin.

The active ingredient in these products is capsaicin, which has been shown to be very good at fighting the effects of acne. It works by creating a thermal reaction in the skin, opening the pores and increasing blood flow. It also has many powerful antimicrobial properties that fight harmful bacteria which is one of the main causes of most acne.

Capsaicin also helps desensitize the skin and this in turn reduces pain, swelling, and inflammation associated with acne. It is also very beneficial for treating circulatory problems. Of course, the best effect of these products is that by minimizing the time acne lasts, it ultimately helps reduce skin scars. So if you are one of the 20 million people who suffer from acne, you will be happy to know that help is now available in the most unlikely place – the chilli pepper. Don’t add it to your next meal now!
