What causes pimples and acne?
When the oil-secreting glands of the skin become blocked and infected we see the characteristic appearance of redness and eruptions as the body attempts to deal with the toxins and inflammation.

Are Chinese herbs able to clear up my acne?
Chinese herbs are clinically proven to be effective in reducing acne and restoring the skin to its natural state. The formulas we design  have a combination of herbs with natural antibiotics effects, immune regulating effects and hormonal balancing effects. The success rate is high when the herbs are taken over a period of three months.

Some people say that diet doesn't effect the skin, is that true? When taking the Chinese herbal formula for acne we ask our patients to be very careful to avoid overeating foods that can cause increased secretions in the skin and inflammation, such as deep fried foods, chips, chocolate, biscuits, cakes. We also recommend that sugar intake is moderate, since spikes in blood sugar level can put a strain on the system and cause inflammation.
