The Fight Against Acne Goes Digital
About the size of an iPod nano, the Zeno pushes the bacteria that cause acne into a state of heat shock, killing them with it’s microprocessor controlled thermal unit.
It’s about time someone invented a clean, stylish, take-anywhere gadget that fights acne. And Tyrell, the creators of the Zeno, have done a great job. The buzz is that it works great, clearing up the significant effects of pimples within twenty four hours. It’s not surprising then that this cool little gadget won the coveted Allure Best of Beauty award. To see how Tyrell’s trademarked technology works, it’s important to first understand how acne happens.
What Causes Acne
There are some special medical conditions that can cause acne but 90% of the time it is caused by the natural bacteria present on your skin. When this bacteria gets into your pores and the pores get blocked, you get acne. A good skin care regimen can help eliminate or reduce acne, but you still might have problems if you have really dry or oily skin.
Pore blockage occurs when dry skin sheds itself or when the natural oils (sebum) your skin produces are excessive. There are a lot of other factors that can contribute to the problem as well. Some of those factors are diet, humidity, pollution and heredity.
How The Zeno Fights Acne
When you place the Zeno’s treatment tip against a blemish, it’s processor tracks the temperature of your skin and continuously adjusts the temperature it applies to your skin. This way, it applies enough heat to kill acne causing bacteria, but it won’t burn your skin.
The makers of the Zeno say that a couple treatments of two and a half minutes each are enough to effectively kill most of the bacteria. Within twenty four hours, most acne blemishes in their clinical studies were significantly cleared up. The only side effect they encountered was a slight temporary redness of the skin sometimes following a treatment.
