Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/16/2010 -- According to Vivoderm President, Dr. Shawn Adhami, “We realize the majority of dermatology patients suffer from acne more than any other skin ailment. We have been researching natural alternatives in order to get away from the more inflammatory remedies commonly available.” The Vivoderm anti acne mask is the result of years of clinical and personal testing and is 100% natural, herbal and contains no preservatives or chemicals.

Acne typically begins with an enlarged hair follicle, commonly known as a pore, plugged with oil, dead skin and bacteria. As the skin continues to produce more oil, bacteria flourish and are trapped within the swollen follicle, eventually forming acne or severe inflammation of the skin.

The acne masks' key ingredients include: Rosemary, Marshmallow, Dill, Aloe Vera, Lavender, Green Tea, Vitamin C and Vitamin E. Rosemary adds antiseptic and cleansing benefits. Marshmallow and Aloe Vera reduce inflammation, while ingredients like Green Tea and Vitamin C increase antioxidant capacity of tissues and have been proven to reduce sun damage.

The Vivoderm anti acne mask was formulated to penetrate the skin, unplug pores and create an outlet for impurities. In addition, the herbs’ natural antiseptic properties attack acne-causing bacteria. The anti-acne treatment then removes dead skin cells and repairs blemishes without drying out the skin. The result is smooth, blemish-free skin. Regular use of the mask has shown to be effective in treating acne scars as well.

According to the National Institute of Arthritis, Musculoskeletal, and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) nearly 17 million Americans have acne. Acne, or severe inflammation of the skin, is a problem that affects most people at some point in their lives. Acne is the most common skin disease in the United States.
