Treating Acne with Coconut Oil



Coconut Oil has become the "go to" product of 2013.  Dr. Oz has referred to Coconut Oil as having super powers and can aid in people losing weight, treating skin conditions, ulcers and much more. 

HOWEVER, acne is a skin condition that doesn't respond well to Coconut Oil.

Infact, the molecule for coconut oil is very small and will CLOG pores.  It is highly comedogenic; and clients that I have had who used it and already had acne came into my clinic with even more acne. These clients admitted to using Coconut Oil on their faces for over a month and noticed a drastic change in their acne lesions. Their acne went from mild breakouts to severe within that month.  Fortunately, they found me and Skintherapy Acne Clinic in Salt Lake City.  I got them on an acne treatment program using the right products and eliminated the Coconut Oil. Within three months they were clear. Lesson learned!  For a more complete list of Pore Clogging ingredients like Coconut Oil visit Skintherapy Acne Clinic website.
