When treating acne with a homeopathic remedy you should consult a homeopathic professional who can examine your physical, environmental, emotional and intellectual makeup to determine the best treatment for you. He will consider what kind of acne you have and its likely causes to decide on the appropriate treatment and dosage. Consult a doctor before using any homeopathic remedy to determine if it is safe for you to use.
Silicea
The University of Maryland Medical Center reports that silicea is prescribed by homeopaths for pustules. Pustules are small pus-filled, blister-like inflammations of the skin. This type of acne can lead to pit-like scarring of the skin and is common on the face, shoulders, back, chest and neck. Homeopathic professionals also consider a person who is often feeling cold, fatigued and nervous, and who possibly has night sweats, as a good candidate for silicea treatment for acne, according ABC Homeopathy.
Sulphur
Sulphur is naturally found in the body and has anti-inflammatory and circulatory-enhancing properties, according to Dazer.com. The University of Michigan Health System says that sulphur may effectively treat red, itchy, inflamed pimples. People who are complex in thought and unorganized often signal to homeopathic professionals a need for a sulphur supplement. Check with your doctor or dermatologist before using sulphur for acne.
Belladonna
The roots, leaves and tops of the belladonna plant are used for homeopathic treatments; however the berries are highly toxic and must be avoided. Belladonna can treat inflamed, pus-filled acne due to its anti-inflammatory properties, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center. People with rosacea or who commonly experience hot flashes in the cheeks may benefit from this treatment. Check with your doctor or dermatologist before using belladonna for acne.
