Treating Acne with Manuka Honey


Manuka honey is produced by bees that feed on the flowers of the manuka bush. This special type of honey is known for its ability to destroy infection-causing bacteria. Manuka Honey is excellent for the treatment of acne because acne is caused by bacteria that clog the pores and Manuka Honey contains very powerful antibacterial properties. This kind of antibacterial honey is found in New Zealand and has natural healing properties that repair the skin affected by acne. In addition to being used for acne treatment, Manuka honey is also effective in treating other skin conditions such as burns, eczema, ringworm, infected wounds, etc.

Research has shown that Manuka honey has the ability to draw moisture out of the acne-causing bacterial cells, making it impossible for them to survive. It rids impurities from the skin, along with unclogging pores and clearing breakouts. Manuka honey acne treatment functions by penetrating deep in the blocked follicle, killing the bacteria, and unblocking the follicle to release the infection. As the follicle is cleared and sterile, the acne heals rapidly while reducing, and sometimes preventing the formation of scars.

Many acne products contain certain ingredients that can dry the skin and cause other negative side effects. Manuka honey has been found to cause none and is very moisturizing. The hydrating quality of Manuka honey helps to decrease the irritation caused by acne and other skin problems. It's anti-inflammatory properties also help to reduce redness, pain and swelling. By applying Manuka honey to affected areas, blemishes and acne scars will disappear, restoring your skin to its original form.

Using Manuka honey for pimples, blemishes and acne scars is a gentle way of ridding dryness and cleansing your skin. If the thought of using pure Manuka Honey on your skin is not desirable, try using Honeymark's Acne Cream containing Manuka Honey.

Treating Acne with Manuka Honey

It has been discovered that a special type of honey found in New Zealand called Manuka Honey has natural healing properties which help to repair skin affected by acne.

Manuka Honey has been used as a topical agent to treat a wide range of skin problems, including infected wounds, burns, eczema, ringworm, etc. It has recently been gaining worldwide recognition for its ability to draw moisture out of bacterial cells, killing even the most resilient forms of infectious bacteria, including MRSA. It is now recognized that Manuka Honey also has the ability to draw impurities out of the skin, unclogging pores and clearing acne breakouts. It penetrates the blocked follicle, kills the bacteria that cause acne and helps to unblock the follicle allowing the built up infection to be released. This leaves a sterile clear follicle which heals quickly, reducing or even preventing scars from forming.

Independent studies have shown that Manuka Honey reduces inflammation and promotes the healing process. Unlike ingredients found in many acne products, Manuka Honey has a very hydrating effect on the skin. It is a known fact that hydrated skin heals better and faster than dry skin. Manuka Honey is regarded as a natural moisturizer. Since it's a natural ingredient and an anti-irritant, Manuka Honey doesn't aggravate sensitive skin, which is common among acne sufferers.

Manuka Honey is known for its effectiveness as an antimicrobial agent. This makes it useful for treating acne breakouts because it prevents bacteria from growing. The acidic environment of honey is not an ideal environment for bacterial growth. Honey is also low in protein which deprives bacteria of nitrogen, an element needed for bacteria to grow. With infection-causing bacteria eliminated, redness associated with acne is also eliminated. In addition, Manuka Honey's anti-inflammatory properties help to eliminate inflamed tissue that may be causing pain or discomfort.

A New York-based manufacturer of skin care products called Honeymark has combined the formulation of a powerful acne cream with the potent healing properties of active Manuka Honey. Honeymark's Acne Cream contains a medical-grade Manuka Honey that quickly goes to work on pimples yielding immediate results.

"Manuka Honey's antibacterial properties penetrating deeply into the epidermis, killing bacteria and relieving blocked follicles," says Frank Buonanotte, CEO of Honeymark International. "The moist healing environment created by Manuka Honey allows new skin to grow flush with the surface of the skin which prevents scarring or skin deformity in more serious cases of acne."
