Skin Care Programs: Do They Work?

.
We have come across several skincare-related programs that suggest that there are effective alternatives to surgery and cosmetic procedures that could be highly responsive to demand and interest if validated.

This brief look considers 4 interesting programs from amongst the many out there... The skincare programs examined in this posting include:

1. "Beat Eczema"

2. "Moles, Warts and Skin Tags Removal"

3. "Acne Free in 3 Days"

4. "Banish Rosacea"

We would, of course, be very interested in hearing of your experiences with these programs or others that have either been particularly effective (or ineffective, as might be the case). Specifically, it would be great if you could share:

- how and why you chose a particular program

- what your experience was in following it (for example, was it easy or difficult to follow? did you experience any unexpected side effects?)

- your results from using the program (for example, were you able to resolve your skincare problem over the short-, medium- and long-terms?)

Your feedback, comments and suggestions for other programs we should explore in future postings would be highly valued.

1. "Beat Eczema"

Background:

Eczema is a form of skin inflammation or dermatitis associated with a patchy red or brown skin rash that can be very itchy. With chronic scratching, the affected skin may feel "raw" with a burning sensation and can even bleed from excessive scratching.

Eczema is very common and may affect as many as 1 in 5 children between the ages of 3 and 17. Among adults, it typically tends to be more common mong women compared to men, and may be associated with allergies to soaps, detergents, and household or industrial chemicals (atopic dermatitis). For many sufferers, eczema is very distressing and may interfere with sleep. Affected individuals are often embarrassed by lesions in affected areas, and may seek to cover them up with clothes.

Individuals suffering from eczema typically try a whole range of topical creams, cosmetic products, and over-the-counter medications and may have a history of seeking assistance from multiple healthcare practitioners to no avail.

The premise of beating eczema naturally would be highly attractive to many sufferers if it can be shown to work...

Target: Anyone with eczema or a loved one/parent of a child with eczema

Claims:

- “Eliminate your eczema in as little as 10 days” without the use of medications (which often include potentially dangerous steroids); stop the itching and eliminate dry skin “forever”.

- Focus on the root causes of eczema rather than the symptoms; unleash the body's natural ability to heal the skin and slow the skin aging process.

- Be totally free from pain and sleep soundly at night.

- Guarantee: 60 day “no hassle, no questions asked” return policy if you are not completely satisfied with the program.

2. "Moles, Warts and Skin Tags Removal"

Background:

Moles occur when pigmented cells grow in a cluster on the skin to form brown or black lesions. Most people have as many as 30 or 40 moles. When moles are of aesthetic concern, individuals may attempt to cover them with cosmetic products or to have them removed surgically.

Warts are viral infections of the skin resulting in cauliflower shaped tumorous lesions typically on the hands and feet (they may also occur on other parts of the body). They are contagious in nature and can be spread from one part of the body to another or from person to person. Warts typically resolve naturally after a few months but can sometimes last for years and recur. Treatment often involves the application of topical agents or the use of minor surgical procedures including laser or cryosurgery (using liquid nitrogen). Surgical treatment can sometimes leave a scar.

Skin tags are typically small benign growths of the skin that are often raised from the skin on a stalk called a "peduncle". Both men and women can develop skin tags as they age. Skin tags are typically removed using minor surgical procedures.

The availability of a safe, non-surgical alternative approach to managing such conditions as moles, warts and skin tags would be attractive to many individuals.

Target: Anyone suffering from moles, warts or skin tags who wants to have them removed.

Claims:

- “...Permanently remove moles, warts and skin tags the natural and non-surgical way” with no blemishes or scars

- “Scientifically proven” method with permannt results with no side effects

- 98% cure rate for moles, skin tags, warts and “external genital warts”

- Testimonials and related before/after photos suggest good results

- Guarantee: 60 day "unconditional" money back guarantee

3. "Acne Free in 3 Days"

Background:

Acne is a common skin problem associated with sometimes painful pustules (commonly called pimples) occurring typically on the face and upper neck (and sometimes on the shoulders, chest, back and other parts of the body). It affects some 85% of adolescents and tends to resolve in adulthood although some individuals may be afflicted until their later thirties or even forties. It can leave scars and can be a source of emotional pain and insecurity for sufferers.

A natural cure that can quickly resolve acne without expensive treatment or scarring would be of real interest to sufferers.

Target: Anyone suffering from acne.

Claims:

- America's #1 alternative acne solution...the "only proven holistic, way to restore and have beautiful clear skin."

- “Scientifically proven way” to clear the skin of acne with "long term permanent results without side effects."

- "Easy to use in the comfort of your home" with clear, concise and easy to follow step by step directions on eliminating acne.

- User testimonials suggest remarkable improvement within 3 days using this "simple natural treatment."

- Guarantee: 60 day “better than risk-free” money back guarantee if “after sincerely giving the natural program a try, you do not find this helpful in curing your acne.”

Note: The developers of "Acne Free in 3 Days" have also developed a mole, warts and skin tag elimination program that uses a similar pitch: "Mole, Wart and Skin Tag Free in 3 Days"

4. "Banish Rosacea"

Background:

Rosacea is a chronic skin condition associated with redness (erythema) of the face that tends to affect fairer skinned individuals. It is sometimes called “adult acne” and may be associated with pimples. It can sometimes also cause a stinging or burning sensation in the skin, eyes and eyelids.

Sufferers often find themselves using multiple layers of cosmetics to try to hide the lesions. There is clear demand and need for a simple, cost-effective treatment for the condition.

Target: Anyone suffering from Rosacea

Claims:

- “Conventional Treatments Do Nothing To Fight The Root Cause Of Rosacea - They Merely Try to "Patch-Up" The Problem and Reduce The Severity!“

- 93.7% of Rosacea sufferers lack a critical "amino acid" (not specified)

- All natural 2 step system to immediately reduce and eliminate Rosacea.

- Guarantee: 60 day "100% satisfaction to rid your body of Rosacea or your money back when you show that you honestly applied the 2 step system".
