How It's Possible To Get Rid Of Pimples Overnite

By Beth Dunne


Is it possible to lose pimples overnight? In some cases, yes. Let's look at how acne works and what steps you should take if you would like to lose pimples overnite.

Acne vulgaris is the most common form of acne. In reality the word 'vulgaris ' essentially means 'common'. It is caused by over active sebum or natural skin oils, that collect and form blockages in hair follicles. It is most common on the parts of the body where there are a lot of hair follicles and sebaceous glands (the glands that produce skin oils). This means the face, back and chest.

You may be shocked at this - most of us don't have hair on our nose, and yet that's one of the places where acne can be most severe. But in fact , the nose is covered with follicles. The actual hairs could be small, so tiny and fine they are invisible, but they do exist. In other parts like the forehead and cheeks, you may be able to see fine hairs if you look closely.

Folks with acne vulgaris sometimes have a mixture of whitehead spots (closed comedones) and blackheads (open comedones) on their face, perhaps widening to the neck, scalp, chest and back.

So if you have acne vulgaris, can you get shot of blemishes overnite? Often yes, you can. It depends on the zit and its stage of development.

If you feel or see a red patch of skin or bump that tells you that a pimple is coming, there are a few things that you can do to try to stop it showing as an unpleasant blemish in the morning. First cleanse the area, then apply a layer of anti acne mask to the lump.

You may have a product like Proactiv Solution that you like to use, or you can use a home acne cure such as crushed aspirin or bicarbonate of soda mixed with water (though not both together, and always test the skin for sensitivity first). Avoid touching the area and sleep in a way that doesn't crush it against the sheets. Clean again in the morning and with luck, your potential spot will be far less of a threat.

The other sort of zits that you may be ready to remove overnight are those that can be treated with a blackhead extractor. This is a tool that removes blackheads but will also often cope with whiteheads. It does this by popping them without causing damage to the surrounding skin. So that you can get rid of pimples overnite by using the extractor in the evening, cleansing to get rid of any infection, and then trying a toner or lemon juice to close up the broken skin.

Avoid touching the area with your fingers and try to keep hair off it. If you also utilize a clean pillow case and again, sleep with the pimple exposed to the air, you'll have a good chance of awakening to find it is nearly unnoticeable in the morning.

Cystic acne is a more deep seated issue. If you have cystic acne you'll have red mounds under the skin that may last a while and barely come to a head. Cystic acne also causes more enduring scars. Sadly , there isn't any way to get rid of pimples overnite if cystic acne is the cause: successful treatment takes one or two weeks, but the results are well worth waiting for.
