Colloidal Silver for Acne and other skin problems

In 20’s – 40’s of past century Colloidal silver was used in many medicaments in Europe. This basically refers to the tiny particles of silver, usually in the size range 2-10 nanometers suspended in the liquid or colloidal base. It has gained back its popularity, as some scientists and practitioners claim that colloidal silver can combat such serious conditions as cancer, HIV or Lyme disease; though the studies are still on to verify some of these. The already proven fact of the colloidal silver is that it has an ability to kill bacteria, fungi and viruses. It is very successful in the treatment of skin ailments like acne, eczema, warts, inflammations and psoriasis.

How colloidal silver work?

Colloidal silver also called as nano- silver has been recommended for use in cosmetic products for people of all ages. Cosmetics that contain nano-silver are proven to be effective in preventing and treating acne, skin inflammations, dermatosis, toxicodermia, microbial and true eczema. So you can see that you can get both acne and eczema treated with the colloidal silver.

The bacteria responsible for acne, Propionibacterum Acne (P. acne) normally resides on the surface of the skin. They grow on the mixture of the oil and cells in the hair follicles. The bacteria then causes inflammation, that further results in the formation of the acne like pimples, zits, blackheads, whiteheads etc. Nano-silver helps in destroying P.acnes. It also removes excessive sebum that blocks the pores and enables P.acne growth.

Colloidal silver is effective for other skin ailment also. The mechanism is simple, but effective. It kills the pathogens that cause or aggravate the condition and deeply cleanses the skin to avoid recurrent infections. This magical compound kills over 600 species of pathogens, including bacteria, fungi and viruses.

You might be thinking is colloidal silver safe? Well, yes it is safe to use on skin and even on the open wounds and skin burns to prevent bacteria, fungal and viral infections. The nano-silver particles help in killing germs, while leaving the surrounding tissue safe and unharmed. Silver based dressing is widely recommended in the treatments of infections in burns, chronic wounds like leg ulcers and surgical wounds.

Avoid the use if:

  • You are allergic to silver.
  • You are pregnant, breast feeding or suffering from any chronic illness.
