Introducing ZO Medical AkneBright

ACNE. It’s a four letter word for most of us. Even when you think you’re in the clear after you hit your mid 20s, blemishes can still plague your complexion and can be a problem well into your 40s and beyond.

Acne can be mild, moderate or severe, and it can show up on your forehead, cheeks, nose, chin, chest, and back. It’s important to know what kind of acne you have to chose the most appropriate and effective treatments and products.  That is where a visit to a dermatologist or skin specialist comes in. Basically, acne can be categorized into two main types – inflammatory and non-inflammatory. The mildest and most common is the non-inflammatory type – such as blackheads or open comedos, and whiteheads or closed comedos. Inflammatory acne can be quite severe, resulting in painful, hard cysts and nodules that lie deep under the skin.

As a leading acne specialist, Dr. Zein Obagi and ZO Skin Health are always on the cutting edge of acne therapies. The newest member of the ZO Acne family is  ZO Medical AkneBright™ Acne Spot and Pigmentation Treatment.

This fast-acting targeted blemish treatment brings rapid relief of acne lesions and also prevents post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. AkneBright™ uses the power of encapsulated salicylic acid to prevent the formation of new pigmentation. It contains potent broccoli extract, sunflower seed oil and glucosamine to calm and soothe redness.

In addition to fighting acne, ZO Medical AkneBright also helps prevent pigmentation. Clinically proven Manuka Honey aids in preventing post acne scarring, and is a natural microbial clinically proven for wound healing. It has also been proven to stimulate tissue growth in wounds in just 7 days by over 60%

So if you are suffering with breakouts and the dark spots that often follow, ask your ZO doctor if ZO Medical AkneBright is right for your skin.
