Are you concerned about pore size? It is easy to be self conscientious about your skin. Even though it is said “true beauty comes from within” (and it’s true) we sometimes can’t help worrying about our appearance.

Why do pores get enlarged? Betterbodz.com reports that oily skin is to blame.

The pores get bigger to handle the increased output. You’re most likely to notice enlarged pores around your nose because that area has more oil glands per square inch than any other part of your body. They stay enlarged until middle age when they shrink into the perfect, totally unnoticeable size that you’ve always wanted.

Patience is a virtue, isn’t it? However, waiting until your middle ages for the “perfect pore size” may require more patience than most people have. If we could somehow stop oil from secreting through the pores, its size would become smaller. Yet, having some skin oil is healthy.

The key is to stop only the excess skin oil from reaching the skins surface. It is recommended to use topicals and creams, but they only address the oil after the fact. Stopping excess skin oil internally would be the best solution.

There is a drug that does just that. The radical acne drug Accutane completely stops your body from producing oily skin. This will shrink pore sizes. However, Accutane is considered a last resort because of Accutane’s side effects.

The other all natural(drug free) choice works just like Accutane, but it is much safer. It is called Vilantae. Like Accutane, it works internally, stopping oil before it can reach the skins surface. The key differences between Vilantae and Accutane are the side effects and the amount of oil each one stops. While Accutane completly shuts off oil, Vilantae only stops the excess oil.

With less skin oil, pore sizes will become much smaller. An added advantage to Vilantae is its safety. Vilantae is all natural. It is not a drug and can be taken without a prescription. It can be ordered online. Unlike Accutane, it is guaranteed to work, or your money back. Not even Accutane does that. Vilantae has much fewer side effects as well.

A third party study on Vilantae in the late 90’s confirms the effect it has on pore size.

The pore size becomes noticeably smaller within one to two weeks, very often much sooner. Like sebum excretion, the pores will continue to shrink until the skin becomes much finer, giving the patient a much more beautiful skin.

We highly recommend you try Vilantae. Check it out at Vilantae.com

Accutane is often considered the most powerful drug in fighting oily skin and acne.  However, with its great benefits comes much risk in the form of side effects.  To date, no other acne drug is given with as much precaution as Accutane.

With the concern of the potent side effects in mind, doctors typically try every kind of treatment there is before prescribing Accutane. But why?  What is Accutane?

Accutane is derived from vitamin A.  Many years ago it became apparent that taking larger amounts of Vitamin A can stop oily skin, however doing so had many side effects.  The side effects involved in doing this were so harsh that they proving very harmful and deadly.

In order to lessen the side effects, researchers developed the drug Accutane, which is based on the very core of Vitamin A.  With some of the properties of Vitamin A stripped out, Accutane is less harsh than pure Vitamin A.

Accutane is basically “controlled vitamin A poisoning.” Doctors monitor a patient’s health very closely while on Accutane. This means regular blood tests and pregnancy tests.  

The reason Accutane and Vitamin A are so dangerous is because the body has a hard time disposing of it.  Instead of the excess leaving the body, it gets stored in fatty tissues.  The excess that remains in the body can then become toxic and harmful.  The liver, which is comprised of fatty tissue, is often the most effected organ.  This is one reason doctors often run blood tests on the liver.

There is a major health risk for the unborn of mothers who are actively taking Accutane. It is important that women must not become pregnant while on Accutane.  As a precaution, female patients of all ages are often required to attend contraception classes to ensure they do not become pregnant.

The way Accutane stops acne is by temporarily turning off the oil glands.  With no oil on the skins surface, acne is not possible.

Alternatives To Accutane

The idea behind Accutane is brilliant, but many worry about its severe side effects. It is not widely known that there are other vitamins that work the same way Accutane.  Vilantae is one such alternative.  Taking large amounts of Vilantae triggers the body’s natural ability to break down oil before it can reach the skins surface.  Vilantae doesn’t turn the oil glands off like Accutane does, it gives them less oil to process.

Most doctors do not keep up with natural treatments like Vilantae, yet it works in much the same way. You can read more about how it works at Vilantae.com.

Educate yourself. If you can find an alternative that works, stick with it! If not, use your knowledge and listen to your doctor. The more you know, the better you can take care of yourself.
