Many women struggle with having pimples on their buttock area. Dermatologist, Debra Jaliman explains that these small bumps are actually folliculitis.
“The bumps are formed by dead skin cells and bacteria in the hair follicles.”
Luckily for you, there are ways you can get rid of those annoying acne and have the perfectly smooth butt.
Here are the 4 ways you can easily get rid of your butt acne:
1. Unclog your pores with salicylic acid pads
Prevent the appearance of butt acne by unclogging your pores a few times a week. Use salicylic acid pads a few times a week.
2. Use a benzoyl peroxide body wash
Jaliman recommends you to use benzoyl peroxide body wash. This type of body wash will dry your butt acne, remove dead skin cells and unclog the follicles.
3. Use lotion that contains lactic acid
Next time you’re buying lotion, choose a lotion that contains lactic acid. Lactic acid will exfoliate the dead skin cells and will get rid of your acne.
4. Shower after a sweat session
“It’s best to shower right after a workout so you don’t sit around in clothing you’ve been sweating in that’s filled with bacteria,” explains Dr. Debra.
She recommends using a loofah to remove sweat, dead skin cells and bacteria.
