No, not at all! In fact, it's very important to moisturize well when you have acne. If you don't moisturize, your skin will get too dry and produce oil to compensate, and then you'll end up with more acne. Everybody should moisturize.Is it bad to put oil free cream on acne?
Try Crisco, it works like a dream.

Expiriences whilst using Accutane- acne treatment...good or bad...?
I've heard loads of stories about it- half of them say it's an evil drug with disastrous side-effects and half say it is amazing an works really well.
Has anyone had any expiriences- good or bad?
I am thinking about trying it but I'm not sure...
All answers will be very appreciated! :)Expiriences whilst using Accutane- acne treatment...good or bad...?
It worked wonders to get rid of my acne, but I had severe sensitivity to the sun for about 3 months after I stopped taking it (and all while I was on it). It literally felt like the sun was burning me, just from sitting in the sunshine. Also, I had a small spot of cancerous cells removed from my upper shoulder... It could be related, or it could be just bad genes, but I was only 25....Expiriences whilst using Accutane- acne treatment...good or bad...?
I used it and it was great. Just know there are different levels that you can possible take. I was lucky because my older bro had worse acne than I did so when I started to break out a little bit in high school I went immediately to the dermatologist as got start on a very low dose of accutane. I was on once a week at about 10MG's I believe. Another friend of mine was taking it twice a day at 50mg because his acne was that bad. So just keep in mind there are so many different levels that can be prescribed. The main thing is you can only clear up so much acne by washing your face. Most acne is caused under the skin and thats why medication is need in some form to really clear up acne. I never had issue with being outside. Just make sure to wear sunscreen if your outside a lot but you should be wearing sunscreen no matter what.
I tried many treatments from my dermatologist. Ammoxicillan seems to work for me. I took accutane for a while. I feel that it shouldn't be taken unless you have tried the many options out there. Accutane is a very strong drug. For example, it can cause birth defects. When I was on it I suffered from dried chapped lips, dry bloody nose, my knees would hurt, my skin was dry and itchy. And about a month in my treatment I started to feel a sharp painful stabbing pain in my right side, where my liver is. I didn't know what was wrong. I thought something was going to burst. I could feel my organ pulsating like it was severely irritated. I went to urgent care and they didn't know what was wrong. So I was then sent to emergency. They did an ultrasound and blood tests. I remember something being high in my blood due to the drug and the ultrasound showed an inflamed liver. It turns out accutane caused me to develop drug induced hepatitis. I was removed off the drug and am fine. Yesterday, I was diagnosed with kidney stones. They say the pain from kidney stones is worse than the pain a woman feels when giving birth. And it really did hurt, I'm unsure if accutane caused this though. But I think you really need to think this through. And when I was on accutane, my acne got worse. I developed cystic acne, which left scars and dents on my face. I don't think it was worth it. I still break out but not as bad as when I was on this drug. My face is pretty clear now with my antibiotics. And I'd also like to inform you that if you do take accutane, they draw blood from you regularly to check up on you.
I've reported Princi Q three times today in the Beauty section...anyone else reporting them? It's spam and they need to stop!
Now for your answer... I've heard of it, never tried it myself. I have a couple friends who have used it and said it was so-so but they're still looking for something better. Everyone's different though, ya never know it might work great for you!
yes
i did use it.. my dermotologist put me on Accutane for about 6 months
and believe me it work wonders!
i was really happy with the results
it not only stops further breakouts, but also reduces the redness
and the side-effect could be that it causes dryness on lips and on ur skin
but thats alright,that can be treated using a good mosturizer for example Cetaphil
good luck
i highly recommend these pills
I had bad, bad, bad kidney stones. I wouldn't wish them on my worst enemy so very painful!

My acne is getting worse and its not even showing any good signs?
well i have been going to a skin doctor since September, i have a 2 skin doctor, and still seeing the 2nd one. i still get zits every week, the zits i have do not go away. i take the pills, i apply the cream. what else could it be cause i find it so stupid, how these doctors are not helping me when they are giving me stuff that is suppose to work. is like every acne cream out there just make acne worse and not better at all?My acne is getting worse and its not even showing any good signs?
When I was seeing a dermatoligist for acne (15 years ago), I was told it may get worse before it gets better because the meds need time to work. But, if you feel like that's not the case, talk to your Dr. You may need more potent creams and pills. My brother had really bad acne and in the end had to take Accutane. You should talk to your Dr. about different options.My acne is getting worse and its not even showing any good signs?
i use clineque %26amp; it is the by far best skin care system ive ever used.
i used to have discusting acne, and i was about to see a deratologist, but i tried clineque at a mall %26amp; its really amazing. i have no acne at all. my face is bright and clear (knock on wood). %26amp; sometimes i switch it up and use different stuff.
but my acne is easy to get rid of. but i insist that you try for clineque.%26amp; tell me if you try%26amp; get results!!
-also when you wash your face, pat it dry. dont rub the water off.
-try a tomatoe mask too
I think you are not following the proper guidelines. Acne is not a big problem if you follow some simple guidelines.
1. Just wash your face as many times a day.
2. Apply mint extract before going to bed and wash it off in the morning.
A lot of it is in practical steps, like NEVER touching your face, and periodically washing your pillowcase. Using a wash cloth on your face, basically any skin to skin contact helps spread oil and acne

Teenage is synonymous with all those dark red grotesque pimples. So much so that 1/10th of the advertising airtime is spent on products dedicated to a clear skin. Every major cosmetic company has one 鈥榮kin care鈥?鈥?the new buzz word is nourishment 鈥?product in his bag. In my many years of experience as a beautician I have seen that many young girls land up with a bad skin mostly because they are ignorant of the basic care required. In fact many women in their 30鈥檚 don't even know their skin type. All they know is that it is 鈥榥ot good鈥?
Having perfect skin is not at all a major achievement. Here is how to go about it. At this point let me clarify that this article is not intended only for the fairer sex. With the rough tough male paying more and more attention to his looks now, it includes him too.
How to get that perfect glow?
Keep It Simple. Too many products can irritate and too many steps may tempt you to skip care won't do it.
Keep It Gentle. Scrubbing and over drying leaves skin rough and red. Like, don't fight with your face.
You cant change your skin you can only make the best of it. Remember this and go on.
Identify your skin type
Each skin type has its own set of do鈥檚 and don鈥檛s. First get to know your skin type and then decide on a regime specific to it. Each week I will deal with a different skin type. This week I begin with the most common of them all the oily skin.
Oily Skin 鈥?How to identify it?
Has a shiny look and looks oily within an hour after you cleanse it. Try this simple test. Wash your face thoroughly and dry it with a towel. Don鈥檛 apply any lotion or powders. If your face looks shiny and oily within an hour, you have an oily face. In an oily skin type, the oil is visible right through the make-up, especially in the T-zone. Don鈥檛 despair. One advantage of having an oily skin is that it ages very late. You can be confident that you won't see those tell tale wrinkles till you hit your late fifties.
Cleanse
Use gel, liquid cleanser or an oily-skin cleansing bar no more than two or three times per day- morning, night and after school or sports. Over-washing won't stop oil flow, but it can irritate skin.
Tone
A salicylic acid formula once or twice a day helps reduce oil and keep pores clear.. (One to try: Clean %26amp; Clear Oil Controlling Astringent.) Apply with a cotton ball, concentrating on T-zone-forehead, nose and chin. A toner will close up all the pores opened during the cleansing process.
Moisturize
Choose an oil-free, non-comedogenic (non-clogging) formula. Dot on drier areas only-around eyes, on cheeks-and gently blend. If skin looks or feels slick or oily, you've overdone it!
Troubleshoot
Apply a 5 percent Benzoyl Peroxide cream or a salicylic acid formula to breakout-prone places to prevent blemishes. Are zits more than an occasional occurrence? Skip to ';Blemish-Prone'; for more clear-up info. A clay mask once or twice a week helps dry up oil and remove dead surface cells. Creamy cleansing grains get a twice-a-week OK.
Makeup
A water-based, oil-blotting formula minimizes shine. Sheer paper face blotters remove oil and leave makeup intact. Invest in a blotting blush and powder too
Dry Skin
How to Identify It?
Feels tight and dry after cleansing. Cold weather and/or dry air makes it rough and flaky.
Cleanse
A moisturizing cleanser or cleansing bar should leave skin feeling clean, fresh and smooth without dryness. Use a soothing formula twice a day.
Tone
Gently sweep non-alcohol toner over skin with a cotton ball. (If even mild toners dry and irritate, skip this step.)
Moisturize
Opt for a creamy formula rather than one labeled ';oil-free.'; Extra assistance-alpha-hydroxy acids help smooth and exfoliate while ingredients such as vitamin E, aloe and panthenol soothe. (Check labels.) Apply while skin's still damp after cleansing to seal in moisture. But dot and blend; don't glop it on. Skin should feel fresh and moist, not greasy!
Troubleshoot
Use a salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide cream to spot-treat any blemishes. A moisturizing mask once a week exfoliates and smoothes. All but the creamiest grains over-dry.
Make Up
A moisturizing foundation helps protect and soften and delivers the smoothest coverage. Just add cream blush.
Extra Advice
If skin's super dry, you may prefer to tissue off cleanser rather than rinse.

Best of LuckAcne mostly gone but bad skin texture?? Also want my skin to glow!! [pics included]?
Easy, the thing that works very well in making your skin glow is Topical Ascorbic-Acid ( not lemon juice coz it is citric acid).
it is backed up by science and several peer reviewed studies. check out http://www.acnetreatmentlab.com for more info
The way i see it you are doing something wrong with your treatment regimen. if you want to remove acne scars, exfoliation by means of AHA or Salicylic acid should be followed by topical application of copper peptide or vitamin-C. read the ';scar treatment'; section of the site above for more info.
I keep it simple I use a a products called Skinsuccess Brightening Facial Mask twice a week. Then I use a microdelivery peel once a week to help the texture of my skin become smoothes. Find products that has alpha hydroxy and glycolic in it because this are great exfoliaters to help congested skin. Then use a moisturizer everyday to hydrate the skin. Neutrogena has two moisturizer you can try Advanced solutions skin transforming complex or Illuminating Whip moisturizer.

Should they should ban PE and JROTC from high schools because its makes kids acne worse because of the hot sun
Should they should ban PE and JROTC from high schools because its makes kids acne worse because of the hot sun. Also should they ban school teams like football, soccer, baseball etcShould they should ban PE and JROTC from high schools because its makes kids acne worse because of the hot sun
I wouldn't just cancel it because of acne. I mean acne is not contagious or life-threatening. I doubt the school boards will pity the kids because of that.Should they should ban PE and JROTC from high schools because its makes kids acne worse because of the hot sun
it helps acne?? cool! and y would the school boards care about that? and if they had no physical activities, everyone would be obese! and on top of that, I LUV SOCCER! and so many ppl luv sports, so if the majority luv sports, y would they stop it just cuz 1 person doesnt like sports? hullo!
um, the sun helps acne actually...
No, That'd be stupid.
PE, is a required class. Plus, hot sun... oh well deal with acne. Buy some proactiv.
No
The Hot sun actually cures the acne.
I think everyone should have PE all year every year, and as far as the JROTC and sports.......................
Sure lets stop that too so all teens will be obese.
Would you rather have acne that would go away? Or more overweight?
no, we have a lot of overwieght kids out there, plus i love pe and i dunno what jrotc is
NO! a lot of kids LOVE PE and sports! and also we have a LOT of fat kids!

Is it true that popping or picking your acne/pimples makes them worse?
Well. I was just wondering cause some people say it does. They say that when you pop them, they end up 2 times worse and they say it could also spread.
I'm not sure, because some people tell people wth acne to pop them. I have no idea, it's confusing.
Thanks for your time and effort to help! I appreciate it!Is it true that popping or picking your acne/pimples makes them worse?
Hey
Yeah, picking, pinching or popping will spread the bacteria from the spot to other places on your face - could cause further outbreaks and could also force the bacteria further into the pore, making it last longer and take longer to heal.
GOOD LUCK
http://www.acne101.co.ukIs it true that popping or picking your acne/pimples makes them worse?
Well for the most part if you pick at them or squeeze them it isn't good. It can spread (the puss is bacteria) or scab and scar.
If you have a painful pimple or a large white head you can release the puss by gently sticking a clean needle in the center -
and a hot compress should help the pressure - and aid in healing -
it's also best to use acne medication for your face instead of things like visine or toothpaste.
Yes it,s true you are releasing billions of bacteria onto the surrounding skin you also run the risk of leaving a permanent scar
yesh it does.
it hard not to!
I'm not sure, because some people tell people wth acne to pop them. I have no idea, it's confusing.
Thanks for your time and effort to help! I appreciate it!Is it true that popping or picking your acne/pimples makes them worse?
Hey
Yeah, picking, pinching or popping will spread the bacteria from the spot to other places on your face - could cause further outbreaks and could also force the bacteria further into the pore, making it last longer and take longer to heal.
GOOD LUCK
http://www.acne101.co.ukIs it true that popping or picking your acne/pimples makes them worse?
Well for the most part if you pick at them or squeeze them it isn't good. It can spread (the puss is bacteria) or scab and scar.
If you have a painful pimple or a large white head you can release the puss by gently sticking a clean needle in the center -

I am taking Doryx 100 mg tablets for 4 days and my acne has become worse.does it get worse before better?
Does it get worse before it gets better?I am taking Doryx 100 mg tablets for 4 days and my acne has become worse.does it get worse before better?
i first took Doryx 75 for 2 and a half weeks and the dermatologist gave me a higher dose of Doryx 150
yes the acne does become worse because the medicine fights off what the acne needs to survive. the acne will try to fight back but eventually the acne will die out
it should be better in about 2 weeks : see a little improvement or no more acne popping up. if you don't see any improvements after a month ask your dermatologist for a higher dose. it goes as high as 200 i believe so

My mini dachshund puppy has what can only be described as acne on his abdomen, is this a bad thing?
yea we just noticed white bumps on his tummy, and idk but i squeezed one and puss came out of it =/My mini dachshund puppy has what can only be described as acne on his abdomen, is this a bad thing?
Take it to the vet. It is most likely allergic to something. one of ours has something similar to that and it only happens in the spring and summer the vet gave him allergy medicine. or it might have an infection.My mini dachshund puppy has what can only be described as acne on his abdomen, is this a bad thing?
Yes, go to vet. My little dachshund had something similar on his coat...a skin bacterial infection. He was given antibiotics.

Is this going to make my acne worse?
sometimes, when i'm desperate, i just pop it, and then hold an oxy acne pad over it to clean it.
but is this going to make it worse?Is this going to make my acne worse?
it shouldn't make it worse, but it's sure not going to help. i'd suggest not popping them...but if you do pop them, clean the area with warm water (to open the pore), then use cotton swabs to pop it (because the oils from your hands will just clog other pores), then cleanse with cold water to close the pore and wash with a facial wash....avoid putting pressure on your face (leaning on your hand, wearing sweat bands, etc.) as that will cause more acne...most of all avoid popping as much as possible!Is this going to make my acne worse?
The queen helene mint julep mask really does work wonders.
My roommate has this product and lets me use it. It is by far the best face mask I have ever used, it noticibly improves acne within a day for me. Walmart carries it I think, but I havent been able to find it there yet.
The thing about popping zits, is that sometimes it pops and all of the nasty pus inside pops out no problem and the next day the zit is gone. more often than not, however, this is not the case. Squeezing can rupture the zit INSIDE your skin, causing more pimples and making the existing pimple much, much worse. It will become redder, larger, and will probably even hurt. Your best bet is to just leave them alone. The worst thing you can do for you acne is to TOUCH IT. your fingers are full of oil and dirt. Trust me, stop touching your face (besides to wash it/apply moisturizer, but make sure your wash your hands anytime before you touch your face) and you will notice your acne improving within one week. Worked for me :D
Anyway, popping your zits causes acne scars, which will take much, MUCH longer to go away than the zit itself if your just leave it alone. There are many products on the market that work effictively to get rid of acne. There are not so many products on the market that actually WORK to get rid of acne scars, beside expensive peels and laser resurfacing treatments. Trust me, I have looked :P
gross make sure it is white and dont pop it if it is red make sure there is some white and i use clean and clear it works for me
Popping your zits usually leads to acne scars so I wouldn't pop them in the first place. I use a variety of things but for spot treatments I really like Clinique stuff or even Queen Helene's Mint Julep mask [once a week] does wonders, too.

i was lucky to be treated fairly early so i escaped with minor pitting and a few long scars that look a bit like scratches. See your dermatologist because he may be able to reccomend oils or serums to help. i found for scars on my chest rose hip oil did wonders but i wouldnt reccomend it for acne prone skin.
hope this helped a bit and good luckAcne scars how bad are yours.?
Lemon juice is a citric acid which is a part of AHAs group which is an effective home remedy for reducing the acne scars. This removes the dead skin cells, helps in the growth of new cells and gives elasticity to the skin.Log on to http://tipsfromruby-acne.blogspot.com/ for a few home made tips to heal acne .
Mine are a maroon color and I've been with that for 4 years now and I'm 22. I'm considering micro-dermabrasion. I heard it rids the scars, and I'm hoping it does. Don't give up, there are always solutions. Give it a try!

ACNE =[ i get bad breakouts?
Ask your dermatologist about Accutane.
Its a pill you take everyday for 5-6 months.
It basically kills the oils glands in your skin so it clears acne up asap.
although it does dry your skin severely.
For women, you have to sign a contract to even get on it b/c it has a very high percentage of birth defects. You also have to be on birth control and get a pregnancy test each month before you can fill the prescription.
Its pretty much the last resort for acne but I've done it twice (some people need two treatments) and its worked wonders.
Good luck!

Why is my acne worse with Yaz?
I started Yaz birth control pill 6 weeks ago. Ever since, I am getting breakouts all over my face and my skin is oily as ever. I thought that the Yaz would improve my acne.
Will this subside?
Is it a ';gets worse before it gets better'; type of thing?Why is my acne worse with Yaz?
Ok this might mean the charge of hormones contained in this pill is not apropriate for you, you should check with your doctor; you might need another kind of pill.
You have to give any pill at least three months to have no side effects, but as you are having acne you should call your doctor, acn茅 might go away after this 3 months or not.
Good luck! ;D

Did your adult/teen acne get worse or better when you got pregnant?
I've always had terrible acne and it's just now starting to get better....now hubby and I want to start having children. Of course acne or not, I'm still going to get pregnant ( :-) ), but I am wondering what others' experiences are with this. Thanks!Did your adult/teen acne get worse or better when you got pregnant?
Never had bad acne. Then I got pregnant. It was embarassing. But I heard that if you have bad acne it could get better when you get pregnant. Don't let that stop you from being prego. Did your adult/teen acne get worse or better when you got pregnant?
I'm 17 and didn't notice a difference acne wise until I was about 27 weeks pregnant, now I can't get it to go away and i'm 33 weeks pregnant. This sounds stupid, but the thing that works best for me is hand sanitizer, but it dries my face up, so I follow up with lotion on the areas that start getting dry, lol. It's not like hardcore acne, it's just breakouts, like before you get your period you know? Only it doesn't go away for awhile.
Honestly, I've always been pretty lucky. I never had bad acne (as a teen or an adult)... until I got pregnant! Even before we found out I was pregnant (maybe around 3-4 weeks?) I started breaking out on my back! It has come and gone on my face, but my back has been constantly awful!! I even had to put makeup on my back for my friend's wedding (strapless bridesmaid gown)!!! It is just now (24 weeks) STARTING to clear up... yuck! But, don't let this discourage you! Everybody is different!!
I've just started using this product:
http://www.belliskincare.com/pregnancy/a鈥?/a>
It's a safe acne treatment to use during pregnancy.
it is deffrent for anyone luck of the draw some women get that pregnant glow and others dont! i always had facial acne but since i got pregnant it is every where my face back chest arms it is horrible. but maybe you will be a person whose pregnancy hormones clear your skin completely up
good luck
My cystic acne cleared up, but I got a little rosacea during my pregnancy that went away after my daughter was born. My skin was GREAT while I was breastfeeding for a year, but after I stopped, I was back to the cystic acne before my period again.
I've always had clear sin, but since I've been preg it has not been clear at all. Not full blown acne, but a few blemishes that pop up now and then. Also I have always had soft skin, now it is dry and bumpy. Hopefully it is back to normal once my little girl is here!
I hate to say this but since your hormones go haywire during pregnancy , there is a good chance your acne could come back. My face broke out. However i used a oatmeal based soap and it helped alot and got my skin under control. Good luck!
yeah i don't know what it is but my face got super clear with both my pregnancies, and for a few months after. but eventually it came back like five months after i had the baby.
i never had acne to bad as a child but when i got pregnant this time with my son(second, first was a girl) my face broke out bad and still does periodically. so i cant wait to have him
I got a lot of ache the first couple of months I was pregnant. I got it on my face and shoulders. It is different for all woman though. Your body is going through a lot at this time. Good luck:)
Mine got worse, right around time for my period. It is still a little bad at 23 weeks, but not so bad you can't cover it up.
iv never had a problem with mine and now that im pregnant i have stayed broke out and i hope when i get farther it goes away
my acne was terrible during the first months, especially on my chest. which ive never had a problem with when im not pregnant.
As of right now, mine is terrible. It all depends on your hormones though.

Moderate acne... is it really bad?
I am a teenage girl and i have moderate bacne. It really isnt that bad but is it a turn off?? please answer!Moderate acne... is it really bad?

So i heard that Acne gets worse before it gets better?
Well in the past couple weeks i have changed my lifestyle a lot. i now eat much more healthy, Lots of fruit and veg, and plenty of water. My acne has gotten a bit worse. i believe it is due to my body now flushing out all the toxins that have been in inside so long due to a bad diet.
Would you say this is plausible?
P.S i have been washing my face regularly
P.SS I am 15 years old.So i heard that Acne gets worse before it gets better?
Yes this is sorta true, one thing that helped and noticed good results was taking daily vitamins..
my face seemed almost completely clear, and that's just with daily vitamins...you should definitly add that to regimen..
everybody is different, so results will vary.So i heard that Acne gets worse before it gets better?
Maybe, but I think you should get some Clean and Clear Advantage. It is like $5 at Walmart and it will for sure help.

Can steaming your face make acne worse if u use too much salt?
i added salt into the water because heard it will kill the bacteria but i think i might have used to much salt....can it worsen skin????Can steaming your face make acne worse if u use too much salt?
my mom is a determatoligist and she told me that salt will just clog your pores evan more so DONT USE IT!!!!!
HOPE I COULD HELP!!!!Can steaming your face make acne worse if u use too much salt?
The salt won't evaporate, so it won't reach your face when you steam it, it will just stay in the water so it's a bit pointless!
If you already have broken skin on your face then salt will sting - use something gentler instead, witch hazel or a (single) drop of tea tree oil.

What is an estimation of a typical acne laser treatment here in california? not too bad of a case insinuated..
Are you asking what is the estimated cost of laser treatment for acne in California??? The best way to find out is to sit down with the yellow pages one day and look under PHYSICIANS and then DERMATOLOGISTS and call their office. Even without seeing your acne they can give you a ballpark idea of the cost. You might not even need laser treatments with some of the new pads with meds on them and other medications.

I find Spectro Jel works well.
Nothing works quickly for acne--and when I mean quickly, I mean, overnight.
It is best to see your physician--ask your parents to make an appointment with him / her and medications can be properly prescribed for you. Over-the-counter remedies (benzoyl peroxide, et al) may not be enough for you alone (as you say, it's pretty bad). One thing you must not do is squeeze, pop, or pick--as you surely will scar.
Another reason you need to see your physician is that you may end up spending a lot of money on over-the-counter stuff that may not work and when proper medications are prescribed, you'll hopefully only pay the low amount of co-pay for them.
If it is beyond what your physician can do, you will hopefully be referred to a dermatologist, a physician who is trained to treat skin diseases.
None.
I would use water-based acne solutions. Like cetaphil, spectro jel, galenda, anything along those lines.
The reason why most teenage girls get acne cuz they use too much cover up (cake faces) or they use cover up that is made from oils and has perfume in it. Water-based cover up is the best and it will not cause acne. I use it and it works pretty well.
Never use anything that has alcohol or perfume in it. It is very hard on the skin and it will cause oily skin, more acne, more bacteria and dry skin.
I'm also on Jasmine 35, the acne therapy birth control. it works and I'm also do a blue light which kill acne. It is 6 sessions but it costs $200. That's what the price is here in Edmonton, Canada. I dunno about where you live thou. It depends. After all my sessions, I won't need to wear cover up any more and I will just use water-based face wash like cetaphil and it's moisturizers. You have to be careful what you use. You don't want to wreck your face and make it worse. Good Luck!
I've tried all of those and they even though they did get rid of acne, they gave me incredibly dry %26amp; unhealthy skin. The acne came back after I stopped using it.
Go and see your dermatologist. I went, and he perscribed me a tube of medicine that you put on in the morning and the night. After my time was up with the product, he suggested Cleraphil. It works great!
Well It depends what type of acne you have. I've tried both clearasil and proactiv and proactiv is by far the best
proactiv
neither. I've always had bad acne and nothing worked until I got the Mary Kay acne gel stuff. I put it on my pimples and within hours they were gone. Now my face looks AWESOME. I'm not sure what the stuff is called exactly, but it's 7.00 and comes in a tiny tube and you only use a very very small dab of it. You just break open your pimple so the gel can get down inside of it, and seriously it just takes a few hours and it's totally gone.
if you want something form a drugstore buy clean and clear control cleanser with the clean and clear advantage oil-free moisturizer. if you have oily skin use both in the morning and at night. if you have combination or dry skin use only at night and apply the moisturizer in the morning. dont use bad makeup! for oily skin use powder. liquid foundation and oily skin just dont work well together. an awesome powder is physicians formula mineral loose powder. it soaks up unwanted oil and helps sensitive and acne prone skin. but the last thing you want to do is put loose powder on dry skin. dry skin needs to be hydrated throughout the day. use physicians formula mineral liquid makeup. it also helps sensitive and acne prone skin. another thing you can do with any kind of skin type is go with all natural cleansers. try zyporex, its all natural and just for acne. it gives you a really clean feeling. natural can be the best thing because it doesnt contain harsh chemicals that can irritate your face rather than help.

Is it true that acne problems are the worst at age 17?
I am almost 17 and am hoping mine doesn't get worse cause it is already bad!Is it true that acne problems are the worst at age 17?
I acne problems beginning when I was 17. I had acne on my cheeks that was really embarrasing. I tried Proactiv, Murad, Zyporex, Aceneticin, Oxycerin, and even the Asso Gold Cleaning Bar with dismal results. I ended up calling a dermatologist. After 6 months nearly all of my acne cleared up. I suggest you try differnent products until you find one that works for your body type. http://www.goodinternetdeals.com/Acne.htmlIs it true that acne problems are the worst at age 17?
17 and 18 was the worst for me..

I heard using coverup over acne makes it worse! Is this true?
I also heard coverup with water in isnt so bad....any help on if this is true and what is a good coverup that wont cause more acne!I heard using coverup over acne makes it worse! Is this true?
No, for the most part this isn't true. Some foundations CAN make acne worse however. It depends on what you buy. And yes, water-based foundation isn't as bad because it doesn't clog pores like oil-based does.
Here's a good foundation that was made specially for people with acne. It has salycilic acid and other ingrediants to help heal pimples.

Myth : Make-up causes acne.
Most make-up products are made so well that they are
non-comedogenic. They don’t clog the pores, we tell
our patients. However, if a person engages in strenu-
ous aerobic exercise while wearing excessive make-up
(or heavy, greasy make-up), the product may con-
tribute to acne by clogging the pores. We encourage
the use of water-based foundations.
While make-up can, in rare circumstances, con-
tribute to acne, we make sure to comfort our patients
who are concerned about this issue by telling them
that they can still wear make-up. In fact, some make-up
products will help camouflage their acne during treat-
ment, but prior to clearance. As a guideline, if we can
avoid it, we don’t take away a woman’s make-up.
“Make-up and heavy exercise aren’t mutually exclu-
sive,” we explain, “but it’s best not to combine the two
if you’re concerned about acne.”
Foundation is Bad for Skin
If you forget to remove the makeup before going to bed, it is surely not good for your skin. As for the rest of the cases, the modern foundations not only moisturise skin, but also protect it from harmful environment influences. Most of foundation creams contain solar-control factors – it is important to keep in mind, that one should always protect themselves from the sun, in summer as well as in winter. Sun is the main contributor to the skin aging. In winter, when cold wind and frost attack our skin, foundation helps it fight back to those attacks.
2. Cosmetics will make acne worse.
While it is true that many creams, oils and greases can aggravate your acne, there are many cosmetic products you can use that do not, including sunscreens, moisturizers and foundations. Those that do not aggravate acne or lead to development of comedones are labelled “non-acnegenic” and “non-comedogenic” respectively. (See more information about cosmetics and acne)
It depends on if the prodcut you use irritates your skin or if it contains ingredients that are more prone to clogging your skin.
It's all about trial and error. Not all makeup will clog your pores, some will, even those that are said to be for acne-prone skin.
But I think it it better to cover up as little as possible. Get a concealer for trouble spots, and maybe a tinted moisturizer to even the skin tone out, and then a light powder if needed.
Just ease up on what you apply to your face. Everything can make your acne worse.
i have good experiences with this.
first of all start using mineral foundations.
covergirl liquid is terrible for your skin.
use physcians formula mineral wear.
it is talc free and is specially designed for acne prone skin.
when the day is over, you just go to the sink and wash your face with your dail face wash. i have good facial wash so i dont have to use it everyday, but just make sure you wash it off at least with soap and water, but perferrably special skin care stuff.
Definitely don't use liquid, because it clogs up your pores which then leads to acne. So use some type of powder and remember to wash it off really well as soon as youre done wearing it.
Hope I helped[;
If you could help me too,that'd be great[;

okay.
this is like half-way true.
oil based cover up is thick and doesn't let your acne ';breath'; so i guess you could say it causes more acne.
If you buy water based it defiantly doesn't.
try cover girl.
it works the best for me
it depends on the cover up. if its really thick and cakey then yeah, it will make your acne look worse. i use revlon color stay and it doesn't make me break out like i did with other makeup and its not thick and cakey.
Use Almay clear complexion makeup. It heals blemishes with salicylic acid and its infused with meadow-sweet to help purify and clear skin. It costs under 10 dollars. You can get it at any drugstore.
Yes because it clogs the pores. Especially liquid makeup. Try bare minerals it works well on my skin and i get no breakouts. Or any mineral makeup is good too.
it is true depending what coverup you use. There are some foundations meant for people with acne, or a simple mineral based make-up would be okay to use.
Some cover up makeup will clog pores causing a worse situation.
I would definitely use a mineral makeup. It helps clear acne instead of hidding and making it worst. Also dermablend. Clears it up!
hope i helped!
go to murad.com and they have makeup for acne pron skin this is the best stuff or use nutrogena skin clearing foundation they have chemicals like silic acid thats in face wash
Yess! Makeup is really bad for your skin.

Has anyone used accutane for back acne? mine isnt bad at all but their big and not normal pimples...?
i wanna take it. anyone know of any side affects ?Has anyone used accutane for back acne? mine isnt bad at all but their big and not normal pimples...?
My derm. has put me on it. I start in about 12 days from now. I'm actually not sure if it helps with back acne, but i heard face acne can really be cleared.
But yes, the side effects I heard can be pretty serious.
But the way I look at it is hey, all medications have side effects!
Good luck :]Has anyone used accutane for back acne? mine isnt bad at all but their big and not normal pimples...?
you can try http://www.acnefreecare.com
has everything about acne clear
Accutane's History
In the months after accutane's commercial release in 1982 it became evident that something was seriously wrong. By 1983 a number of public consumer groups began a
petition asking the FDA to force La Roche to include warning information with the drug.
These concerns escalated to cause another petition calling for an Accutane ban in 1988. Current statistics suggest that about 25 percent of Accutane pregnancy births
result in serious birth defects and 50 percent of the Accutane pregnancy births result in mental disability.
Guidelines for Females
1. Do not take Accutane if you are pregnant or if you could become pregnant during treatment or for one month after you stop taking Accutane.
2. Accutane is in the FDA pregnancy category X. This means that Accutane is known to cause severe birth defects in an unborn baby.
3. It can also cause miscarriage, premature birth, or death of the baby.
4. Two reliable forms of birth control must be used at the same time
Check for more information, side effects and legacy of Accutane.

HELP PLEASE! Im 20 yrs old and still fighting acne. its not really bad, but bad enough for me. what can i do?
Im 20 yrs old and have acne. its not all over my face, more spread out. but its nasty and I cant remember the last time my face was clear. Iv have used everything.. pro active, over the counter treatments etc.. nothing. What can I do? I understand that there is no over night anything. I just want something that will work. thanksHELP PLEASE! Im 20 yrs old and still fighting acne. its not really bad, but bad enough for me. what can i do?
Here's what you can try. Wash ur face good in the morning and before you go to bed. Also you can try heading to ur local Body Shop and buy this green liquid called Tree Oil. Rub it on your face every night. Hope it gets better.
P.S. NEVER POP YOUR PIMPLES, they look even worse and it might scar you.HELP PLEASE! Im 20 yrs old and still fighting acne. its not really bad, but bad enough for me. what can i do?
Be sure you are up to date with cleaning your face at night before you sleep, after any physical activity and such.
This might sound strange but I recommend getting some toothpaste, and rubbing a little around the area that consists of acne overnight. In the morning it should be better, and always use oil free moisturizers for your face everyday!

How to get rid of bad acne?
The products you are using, are they Salsylic Acid or Benzoyl peroxide? BP can be VERY drying. I personally like SA better. Salsylic acid it really good. It is in almost all acne washes. Benzoyl Peroxide is too drying for me! Try finding a face lotion with SA in it. Clean and Clear has a good moisturizer with SA and it helps keep pimples at bay. It is only about $5 a bottle and lasts about 2 months and you can get it at your local store. I have used this in the past and it works well. Personally, I use Biore products (which you get over the counter. Their products range from $5-$10). They are harsh on pimples, but not on your face.
Personally, Proactive didn't work for me. I have been using Biore products for over a year and I hardly ever break out! Occasionally I will get one or two, but nothing bad. I use Biore Ice Cleanser for acne and Biore warming facial scrub every morning for blackheads (This stuff works. I notcied a DRASTIC diffrence in my blackeads being GONE within 2 weeks) . And then 3-4 day s a week I use Biore purging pore cream scrub. For body acne I use Neutrogena acne body wash I never break out on my body. It gets 110 in summer so sweat in inevitably, yet I never break out. Give it a try. All of it is cheap too. About $5-10 depending on what you buy! Salsylic acid it really good. It is in almost all acne washes. Benzoyl Peroxide is too drying for me! I think you will just need to experiment with products until you find what works for you. Remember, it can take 1 month for products to fully begin working! Good Luck!How to get rid of bad acne?
1. Twice a day (when you get up and at night) wash your face with a cleanser or a face wash. This will keep your skin pores clear and clean and treats blackheads.
2. Exfoliate your skin once a week (DO NOT DO IT LESS THAN A WEEK OR YOUR SKIN MY BEGIN TO DRY) to get rid of building up skin cells around the pores and to get a deep clean out of them. Many exfoliation products also treat blackheads.
3. When bathing use a good soap or bodywash that has a lot of moisturizing properties. It will keep your skin hydrated (which reduces a lot of acne) and it will help body acne by cleaning out pores and making your skin very smooth.
4. A few times a week moisturize your skin after you bathe with a good body lotion (try Aveeno) which will keep your skin hydrated and smooth, and keep it from drying up.
That's all you really need to see improvement in your skin.
For products, I use St. Ives. I trust it completely! For cleansers, use Neutrogena or Garnier facial cleansers. For exfoliation, use St. Ives Apricot Scrub (it has been rated as the most bought and liked scrub in the market). For bodywash or soap, try Dove or even St. Ives mineral therapy which will give your skin all the lost minerals it needs to stay healthy. For moisturizers and lotions, try Aveeno with oatmeal and Shea butter properties. It was about the only lotion that would work for me ^^ (my hands usually get flaked and cracked and bled because of it, but Aveeno saved me)!
But always remember: DRINK A LOT OF WATER!

i use clearasil and equate each nicht and it really works
Personally, Proactive didn't work for me. I have been using Biore products for over a year and I hardly ever break out! Occasionally I will get one or two, but nothing bad. I use Biore Ice Cleanser for acne and Biore warming facial scrub every morning for blackheads (This stuff works. I notcied a DRASTIC diffrence in my blackeads being GONE within 2 weeks) . And then 3-4 day s a week I use Biore purging pore cream scrub. For body acne I use Neutrogena acne body wash I never break out on my body.

Bad Acne..?
My face is breaking out and I have used several different products... NOTHING Works..what can I do *Other than going to see a derm.)Bad Acne..?
Have you tried Proactiv yet? I have used that for 10 years and I love it. It really works!Bad Acne..?
Ok line up a few guys and have them bust a nut all over your face
Stop eating greasy food, as well as sugar.
Use a 50/50 bleach %26amp; water mix and use a Q-tip to dab it on the worst ones! Don't let it get in your eyes tho- its bleach!
why dont you try eating healthier, losing the stress, start working out thrice a week and use organic natural products such as avocado and soy beans and tomatoe to your face.
it works
rub vasoline all over your face
I have the same problem, however I do go to a dermatologist and I have special cream they give me. But I know that I have a habit of touching my face often, only adding to the gross surface oils on my face. If you have this problem, really try to stop.
Also, everything takes time to begin working, weeks, maybe even months. Don't use a certain product for on week and go on to something else. The face cream I use (differin) actually makes my face get worse before it gets better. Either way, there is no ';instant'; removal for acne and no way that is 100% guaranteed to work. Give the creams, lotions, etc. more time to work their magic and you'll be surprised at the results! Good luck!
Try this site. It might help. You might be using products that are too strong for your skin (e.g. 10% benzoyl peroxide instead of 2.5%) and are thus causing irritation. The irritation, in turn, might be causing more acne. Even if that's not the case, you might find some suggestions that work for you.
http://www.acne.org/
I use the Neutrogena product line, it's a bit expensive but has cleared up my acne and blackheads.
You are getting a lot of mixed and wrong information here. I work with dermatologists, medi spa, and plastic surgeons all over the Midwest.
First moisturizers do NOT create more acne. Oil does. In fact really dry skin may cause acne break out because the dry skin clogs healthy pores. That means you have to find a great moisturizer that doesn't have bad poor clogging oil. Some oils like lavender, geranium, palm and avocado actually help calm the inflammation from the acne. You also need a cleanser that gently exfoliates the skin. Caution! Do not think grains of sand or apricot scrub.
Do NOT use Proactive, or any wash/treatment that has an unstable form of benzoyl peroxide. You must find a wash/treatment with stable and time released form of benzoyl peroxide for it to be effective and not burn the skin.
Also there are products that you can take internally that can kill the bacteria that cause acne. These are not prescription based products, so you do not need doc and they do not have the harmful and unpleasant side effects that other prescriptions for acne have.
Also I would hold off on facials, either from the derm or boys as one person has suggested, tooth paste, bleach, etc. These may or may not work, but in my
professional opinion, ewwww!
If you would like a few product recommendations I would be happy to help you, but need just a little more info.
What are you doing right now for your acne both internal and external?
What treatment creams have you already tried?
How old are you now?
How long have you had acne?
Do others in your family have or did they have acne?
What is your budget for treatments?
As a teen I NEVER had acne. Once an adult I had acne so bad that at one point I couldn't even open my mouth. If it is not responding to anthing over-the-counter then you need to see your family doctor. He can prescribe antibiotics and cream. If you are female then birth control pills work wonders.
I would use toothpaste and if that doesn't work I think you should go to a derm.

I have really bad scars and acne what can i do to make it go away?
everyday i always have some kind of new scar or somthing and there every were my legs arms back my face just all around.
it all started when i got poison ivy and i had it really really really bad and that was a long time ago and i dont think my scars and dark marks and everything are ever going to go away and i dont find myself very atractive and i think that all my scars and stuff are one of the main resons why
and stuff i tryed to use proactive,coco butter,vatimine E, um some other face cleaning stuff cant think of the name and also i'm not very consistant i like start but i dont do it everyday and mabey thats my i'm not getting the exact results i want but idk i cant help itI have really bad scars and acne what can i do to make it go away?
Okay..the first thing is that you have to stop looking at yourself as unattractive and identify your good points.
at the moment i have acne but i have to think that maybe people don't view me the same as what i see myself:)
The best thing is to try a product for a couple of weeks..you really have to be persistent with it otherwise your skin loses out and gets confused if you keep swapping all the time. I went to the doctor about my acne a few weeks ago and was prescribed an antibiotic to kill the germs under my skin. If you have to wear make up take it of as soon as you get home to let your face breathe and keep your hair pinned of your face.Junk food such as chocolate will most likely produce a spot 2-3 days after you have eaten it but you are allowed a treat once in a while:) Remember that although your appearance is different to others we are all beautiful in one way or other..
Gud luck and hope i have given some good advicexxxI have really bad scars and acne what can i do to make it go away?
I had pretty bad acne at one point and I started using this product called Acne Free Terminator 10 and I now never get even a single zit. I use Neutrogenia Oil Free Acne Wash twice a day and I apply the Acne Free creme to my face several times throughout the day. It took about 1.5-2 weeks for my skin to clear up completely and I have never gotten one zit since. You can buy it at Wal Mart for around 5 bucks a tube and I will swear by it.
Sorry, this happened to you.
If you get a wound put peroxide, then rubbing alcohol then newsporine or vaseline and band aid.
I use Bio Oil to get rid of my scars, it works very well.
You can also go to the doctor to scasurgeryry or laser scar surgery, whichever you prefer.
You may be allergic to some specific foods. Try eliminating things one at a time. Helped me to find the ones to avoid. I can't touch any hard candy or drinks with any artificial stuff in it. Saved me.
wow u sound like me. Try putting on scar cream or something like that. I take these new pills for my acne and they work great, go to your doctor for more advice.
i use acne free severe it works don't use rubbing alcohol... it takes the pigment out of your skin.

Is storing shampoo,liquid acne wash, liquid body soap etc. in a warmer area of the bathroom bad?(close to vent
It says to store in a cool place but my bathrooms pretty small and i keep my personal shower items in a seperate drawer located next to the heating vent. when i get them from the drawer they are very warm and im afraid that will affect the results on my hair and skin.Is storing shampoo,liquid acne wash, liquid body soap etc. in a warmer area of the bathroom bad?(close to vent
I say it is not safe to store your products in the warm part of your bathroom. 1st because you have read the manufacturer's label, and it tells you to store in a cool place. And 2nd, because to do so will provide bacteria a perfect breeding ground in which to multiply, and potentially harm you.Is storing shampoo,liquid acne wash, liquid body soap etc. in a warmer area of the bathroom bad?(close to vent
they will not have weird effects on your hair and skin, but those bottles could leak or burst all over your drawers. If you have a small bathroom it is probably better to keep shampoos and shower stuff in the shower (on the tub rim, hang it on a metal shower thing, or put on the floor if they are bottles) and as for your acne stuff you should probably keep it on the counter b/c you probably use it about everyday anyways.

Why when i try acne treatments my acne gets a lot worse?
i have tried proactiv, clean %26amp; clear, neutrogena, and a lot of different kinds of creams and lotions and everytime i do my breakouts get bigger.Why when i try acne treatments my acne gets a lot worse?
Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. All acne home remedies should include a healthy diet. Avoid eating chocolates, fried food and refined sugar. Check out http://totalskincare-s.blogspot.com/ for more useful info.Why when i try acne treatments my acne gets a lot worse?
Most of the brands you mentioned draw the oilyness in your skin out... your breakouts will get worse before they get better. Proactive actually tells you wont see good results for a while. If you stick with it and foloow the directions exactly you will eventually see a change.
If that is happening, it is important to use a product that doesn't have oil. If it gets to the point where you don't know what to do about it, go to your doctor and they can prescribe an acne medicine that will work well with your skin type. Good Luck!
My skin is like that too. I use Neutrogena, but I make sure that it is not designed for people with acne. For some reason, doing less is more for my skin. Maybe it's the same for you.
you probably dont stick with one product long enough to know what could work. give it at least a couple weeks for whatever new thing you try. the true thing is, it gets worse before it gets better.oil companies

How long after acne treatment makes skin worse will it start to clear up?
It depends what product you're using.
My doctor gave me a prescription acne gel, and she told me to give it a few months. I know it sounds like a long time, but she was right. The first month I noticed slight improvement, then my skin really cleared up (:How long after acne treatment makes skin worse will it start to clear up?
try visit this blog specialized in acne http://acnedestroyer.blogspot.com/How long after acne treatment makes skin worse will it start to clear up?
It depends which acne cream you're using. I would recommend using tea tree oil, it's all natural and it won't make your acne worse before it gets better. The free book at http://backacnesecrets.com explains it very well.
Usually an acne treatment doesn't make the skin worse. Why would you use an acne product that your skin obviously reacts to with an acne breakout? You're breaking out because the acne product you're using is damaging the skin. I would stop using it, let your skin recover, and use a weaker acne treatment.

It takes about a week or two....your skin is ust cleaning it self and getting used to the product.

Is my acne really that bad ?
Okay well in another question i posted many of the people said I had very bad acne ? I know I had acne but I thought that it had mostly cleared up s I used to have alot when I was bit younger. Is my acne really so bad its horrible like many other people on here said ? Heres a pic...
http://www.flickr.com/photos/22992707@N03/3256708915/sizes/l/Is my acne really that bad ?
No way you look great :)Is my acne really that bad ?
I think you look fine. But if you really want to get rid of those little pimples then you could go to the dermatologist and ask for differin. It's an acne treatment that I used and is very popular now and it works GREAT (especially for people with sensitive skin). I strongly recommend it.
dude, you only have a minimal case of acne. a lot of people suffered more than you but they found cure. so, im pretty sure yours has a cure also since it is not that worst.
I think your freaking over nothing. its not bad at all, however, if your really that anal about it, i use tea tree oil because I am sensitive to other chemicals (just be careful with it, some people have bad reactions)
Wow! I expected you to be a real pizza face after reading your question. It is not nearly as bad as others said. Get a good facial scrub and some beta hydroxy, it will clear you up quickly.
Don't be too self-concious it's not that bad only around the chin a little but who cares? love yourself as you are, mine is worse I want to go to a dermatologist
Your acne is fine! I don't see any problems!
It really isn't horrible at all!
Honestly, that's NOTHING compared to people out there
I see no Acne? :)
No that can be cleared up in no time... Try extra virgin olive oil...
Are you serious?
You look fine.
no you look absolutley fine. but oh my gosh!!! I LOVEEEEEE your eyes!!!! They're flippin' amazing!
nope it's not bad and u have nice eyes.
i can hardly see any acne on your face..btw you are pretty cute
not even!!!
your face is close to being flawless.
I don't see anything...
nahh i don't even see acne,

id rather drink straight from the faucet 2 me they taste diferent
it worries me because in order to be acne free ur body needs water
will it still do the job even though im not drinking purified water?Is tap water bad for ure body and skin and acne?
Tap water is fine in most cities unless the government warns you not to drink it because of a temporary problem such as pipe breaking etc.
You have the right idea that water is good for you and will help get rid of toxins in your body.Is tap water bad for ure body and skin and acne?
I drink right outr of the faucet and I am acne free and I have not had any side effects or health problems from it either so you should be all goooood
Most tap water surpasses bottled water when tested.
well it depends on where you live, but drinking tap water isn't generally bad for you.... you can drink tap water and not get acne
No, in fact it's good for you, esp. for your teeth cuz of the floride.
1st of water is good for you. 2nd of all you need water in your system you could die you Idiot.
Help with acne scars? did any one else suffer from bad skin during pregnancy?
from the moment i found out i was pregnant my skin flared up, these were not any normal spots, but big sore lumps, they have seemed to clear up but it appears that they have left behind, purple scars, i know they will heal in time, but is there any lotion or products that could spped up the recovery of my skin.Help with acne scars? did any one else suffer from bad skin during pregnancy?
I had the same problem sweetie. My sister is a dermatologist and she recommended these products:
1. Take a Vitamin E supplement 1 a day.
2. Don't use products with alot of chemicals in them.
3. Use the Avalon Organics line for face care. You can buy them at Target and they are not expensive at all. She picked out the Vitamin C line for me. They smell great. She started me off on using the foaming gel 2 a day. 1 in the morning and 1 at night. Than after using the gel, use the cleanser. After the cleanser use the spot treatment on your scares and other problem areas. After that than use the cream. I am telling you right now that my face for the first week was adjusting so it didn't look like it was helping much. But I am on week 3 now and my skin looks great. I don't have to wear concealer to cover up the scares. Oh yeah, after using the foaming gel for about a week, start using the Hydrating Milk at night. Its a gentler gel for your face.
4. DRINK ALOT OF WATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope this helps.Help with acne scars? did any one else suffer from bad skin during pregnancy?
I am 26 weeks and haven't been getting acne but really really mottled pigmentation. I use a product by Dermalogica called Daily Microfoliant (can buy online) which helps with things like acne scars and pigmentation marks. Also, at home lactic acid peels (once a week) really help even out your skin tone and help with marks. You can get them at a very reasonable price at www.makeupartistschoice.com. I think my skin would be a lot worse if I weren't using these products, they really do help! Good luck.
My baby is 5 months old now. when i was pregnant i had breakouts too. but after i gave birth my skin was horrible the breakouts were insane and now i have those scars too. mine seem to be fading a little bit. over the counter they sell acne post mark lotion i havent tried it but ive heard it works really good i believe its from the acne free brand. ive wanted to try it just never gotten around to it. within time they will fade your best bet would be to see a dermatologist i know they suck and are embarrassing but they will fade a bit
i also have really bad skin and i'm 6 months pregnant, have tried everything but nothing seems to work.. i'm just upping my water intake to try and clear my skin, also use a facial steamer..

Why does acne medicine break you out worse when you first start it?
My doctor said that a lot of acne medications break you out badly at the beginning and can take 6-8 weeks to see results. Why?Why does acne medicine break you out worse when you first start it?
It's like a facial. All the impurities have to come out first till it's cleaned out (the impurities being the pimples). Then great skin. Also skin can get irritated by what is being used on it and needs to get use to the medication.Why does acne medicine break you out worse when you first start it?
I heard that they speed up the life of the pimples so they die quicker. I was always told that treatment will always make acne worse and then it gets better
might be your body's reaction to a foreign substance initially
Because i think they are clearing ur pores so....they bring the dirt to the surface? I am not sure why...i really like Clean and Clear persa gel the best...thats my favorite
because it has chemicals that usually burn and shock the skin, then eventually overtime weaken the skin so that you break out all the time
Benzoyl peroxide can cause premature skin aging, slow healing and is associated with increased skin cancer risks. In 1995 the FDA issued warnings regarding the use of benzoyl peroxide and changed its status from safe to uncertain.

Through out my pregnancy i have had horrible acne my mom said she hinks acne meds are bad for the baby.....?
i am 5 months alongThrough out my pregnancy i have had horrible acne my mom said she hinks acne meds are bad for the baby.....?
some acne meds (like isotretinoin - generic form of the accutane mentioned earlier) are bad for a baby. make sure you talk to you doctor/pharmacist before taking even otc meds.
congrats about the baby and good luck with the acne clearing upThrough out my pregnancy i have had horrible acne my mom said she hinks acne meds are bad for the baby.....?
I wouldn't take any oral acne meds without talking to your dr. I would think that topical otc acne creams should be safe, but ask the pharmacist to be safe! Something like tea tree oil should be fine, you can get tea tree oil face care at The Body Shop, and probably other places as well.
Good luck!
like actual medication such as pills I probably vvouldnt take or atleast talk to your dr about it but the skin medication like lotions and things that you put directly on your acne is not harmful for your baby.
talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking anything. acne meds, such as accutane, can be teratogenic.
Yes in fact I just read something that said saclyic acid (common in topical acne meds) is bad for a baby.
try tea tree oil. It works really well %26amp; is completely natural. You can find it at your local health food store or online.
moms know best, i would rather have a **** load of acne everywhere and have a healthy baby

I cured bad case of acne with regular old white vinegar. i applied it with a cotton ball at night before bed.?
This is the acne cure doctors don't want you to know about.(Then you wouldn't be giving them all of your $ for Dr. visits and prescriptions.) Over the counter acne meds didn't work 4 me and neither did my prescriptions meds from the Dr. I read about the vinegar trick and decided I had nothing to lose. Making sure that my face was freshly washed, I then applied plain white vinegar with a cotton ball.Make sure to avoid the eye area. I applied it at night before bed because it smells like vinegar. It may sting a bit and the vapor from it may cause your eyes to water a little but bear with it. This really works. the next day there was a HUGE improvement in my skin and over 90% of the acne was completely gone. This works due to the fact that vinegar kills bacteria and is acidic. With repeated use before bedtime, acne breakouts will be a horrible thing of the past. Save money,try this and let me know what you think.I cured bad case of acne with regular old white vinegar. i applied it with a cotton ball at night before bed.?

How bad was your acne early pregnancy?
My husband and I have been ttc for 10 months. AF is due th 17h. I usually start spotting the week leading up to my period but have not yet. I know its to early to test but has anyone had really bad acne early on in their pregnancy. My face is broken out so bad, I have never seen it like this before. My face is usually pretty clear with the occasional pimple before my period but this is grossing me out its so bad. Even my husband noticed it. I am getting them all over. My chin is really bad %26amp; I have a couple on my cheeks. I am using the same makeup i always do so its not that. Has this happen to anyone? I am not used to this.
How bad was your acne early pregnancy?
OMG IM going though the same thing!!! Im not do for Af until the 22 but the past week my cheeks and chest is nasty!!!! i have never been like this ever!!!! I havent changed my makeup either.. i just got proactive and I swear its worse!!! I have been TTC for a few months now so i hope this is a good sign. GL!!! if we are preggers then it will be worth it.. but if were not then WTH??? hehe.. How bad was your acne early pregnancy?
I would break out here and there before my pregnancy, but when I got pregnant, it was terrible! Mostly on my chin and on the side of my face..and even on my back. Not fun at all! Even though acne sucks, hopefully it's a good sign for you. Good luck!
I did get acne really bad early in my pregnancy i got it on my cheeks and chin and on my chest it did go away but it was early. I also checked to see if i was pregnant and got a positive result at 3 wks.
my first pregnancy I had no problems with acne but this time it has been horrible! Puberty all over again =/
i broke out for like the first week and i've had clear skin since.

I have acne is that a bad problem?
Hi
it is not a bad problem. But acne affects people physiologically, emotionally, psycologically and socially. Also, it leaves ugly marks on the face.
It is better to get rid of acne as early as possible. Acne can be completely cured by following simple lifestyle changes.
Why don't you look at my website which speaks about curing acne completely by following simple lifestyle changes?
http://www.geocities.com/acne_no_more/in鈥?/a>
http://acne-no-more.blogspot.com/I have acne is that a bad problem?
no, alot of people have acneI have acne is that a bad problem?
It's not a major problem, but it can do some life altering sometimes, as to how people treat you and who you can date. Everyone gets a little every once in while, and if you wash your face twice a day, it will go away eventually. the most important thing is not to scratch the acne, as that can lead to scarring, and you'll have a reminder of the acne for the rest of your life when it could've gone away. if you want to get rid of the acne without waiting for face washing to work, however, and you have the cash, proactive absoulutely works.
if you feel its not worth the effort, that's fine. plenty of people have acne, and its really normal. some people are just more worried about it than others.
i don't think it's a bad problem
Judging from your name I'd assume you're a young kid, and acne's pretty common for teens but it's not good for getting laid.
Acne and pimples is one of the most distressing and depressing problems faced mostly by youngsters. Soak cotton wool in mint juice, and apply every day. Mix cinnamon powder with lime juice to make a fine paste, Apply on pimples.There are more such remedies at http://useinfo-acne.blogspot.com/

How bad is my acne? PICS?
I'm like in tears right now, I feel so ugly and gross and I hate myself because of my skin, It's to the point where I cry myself to sleep at night and don't want to leave my house. I feel like when people see me they don't want to be next to me because I have some kind of infectious dirty disease, and I hate it, I look like I got shot in the face multiple times BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! I hate it. The worst part? I'm starting high school in NINE days! People are going to hate me...

Yes, I've been to a dermatologist.... 4 actually...How bad is my acne? PICS?
It's gonna be okay :)
Acne is just part of growing up. Eventually it will fade. You just have to be patient. You look like a very pretty girl. You just have to learn to get past the acne :)How bad is my acne? PICS?
how old are you? like 16?? Come on now you are not bad! I have seen worse situations of acne.
First of all. If you think about your skin and ';how bad'; it looks you will make everybody notice your ';problem';. When you DON'T think about your problem you make the others not notice it at all! Be smiley, confident and have a positive attitude!
2. You dont need a dermatologist. Sometimes only think they manage to do is scare you out and make you exaggerate about your problem, which is not a problem anyway.
3. Take care of your skin. Get used to wash your face twice a day, when you wake up (before school) and before you go to bed at night. Its very important. Use a good product such as ';DAILY PORE CLEANSER'; by CLEAN%26amp;CLEAR. Its really good! Do NOT rub your face hard with exfoliating cleansers, especially when you have pimples. It only irritates the skin.
Right after you wash your face, use a cotton round and apply a smooth toner, like a liquid lotion. Then wait till it dries up and apply an oil-free lotion such as ';Neutrogena Rapid Clear庐 Acne Defense Face Lotion';.
4. The appearance of your skin shows that its slightly dehydrated, therefore you do need to apply a lotion twice a day.
Sweat and dust are bad for the skin, remember to clean your face after working out or some physical activity.
And you can apply a concealer close to your skin tone and hide those little imperfections when you are about to go out. A very good one is ';Neutrogena SkinClearing庐 oil-free concealer';
5. When you notice black heads or pimples do not squeeze them out with your nails!!!! EVER! You can try and get rid of the black heads by softly squeezing them out with your fingers COVERED in paper towel and only then!
6. ALWAYS remove make up off your face. NEVER go to sleep with make up on! Wash your face the way i described above, at the end of a day with make up on. A concealer for acne treatment like the one by ';Neutrogena'; is good for the skin, make up is not good.
Hopefully these will help you :)
its really not even that bad.
i expected a whole lot worse.
not in a horrible way but i dnt see whaat the fuss is over i am in my 3rd year of high skwl and everyone has things on there faces like loads of spot i have seen much worse dont panic its not half as bad as u think it is
no 1 should judge u on you aperrance and if they do they r just idots hop i hellped xxxxxxxxxx
its not that bad i've seen way worse
alot of kids in high school have acne its just apart of being a teenager it will go away
Actually, it's not that bad. I was expecting it to be much worse from your description.
mine???: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?鈥?/a>
its not that bad.
try using makeup or get your mum to buy you some bio oil :3
Seriously don't worry. My friend suffered with acne and hers was alot worse than yours, trust me!
Try using concealer or foundation just to cover it for school. Also I would recommend trying Clinique's Anti-Blemish Soloutions, which should help clear your skin.
Also people are not going to hate you! Alot more people than you think suffer with acne so your not alone.
Hope that helps (:
You don`t look like you've been hit by any bloody bullets!
It isn`t that bad. You would look much better if you smiled, as opposed to the gloomy frown. What skincare products are you using? harsh products can be just as bad as none at all. Try cleansing you face twice a day with an Aveeno cleanser,and then exfoliating twice a week with a St. Ives scrub... It will remove dead skin, help control acne, and make your face glow. When I get BAD zits ( well, bad for me) I use a clay mask on my face. They dry up your zits and give you an awesome complexion. But you may have MORE acne for a couple days because it draws everything up. You can find them in the Beauty Aisle. I use on called Aztec from a health food store.. It`s like $8 for 1 Ib. Always moisturize after this. I also use a gentler Neutrogena spot cream at night for individual spots. You also need to clean out any zits with pus in the middle. It Sounds gross, but it isn`t, really.
Not crazy bad. Try putting on make up.
I think you are fine.
i had really large painful bumps on that same spot. i tried so many different products and then i went to a doctor in mexico who told me that i had liver and kidney problems. he gave me some medicine and not even a week passed when my face cleared up. he also made me give up coke, chips, anything that is artificially flavored.
okay. you're totally over-reacting. it's not bad at all. i had worst back in the 7th grade. it totally cleared up. and yours will too.
wear foundation to hide the red-ness if you want to hide it, because the bumps aren't bad, just seeing the red is what people think is ugly really.
so, get some face wash, i use Clean And Clear, and it works great, or get prescribed face wash from a dermatologist or medicine (my friend was on medicine for his acne , its now all cleared up ) and don't worry about it.
walk into school with a big smile on your face, and act totally confident, and everyone will over look the acne.
i promise it.
thats not bad at all
almost every kid in school will have acne dont worry its a part of growing up
its not too bad. just find a skin clearing foundation to wear at school or whatever and youll be fine.
No ones gonna hate you cuz of your acne. There are people with MUCH worse acne than you in high school. dont worry about it.
It's not that bad. But as a girl your going to think it's the end of the world. Have you tried anything for it? The AcneFree systems they sell at Walmart and stuff tend to work really well. I used it for awhile and it cleared my breakouts up. I switched to Proactiv and it works really well too. (there was nothing wrong with AcneFree I just felt like trying Proactiv) My sister who is 17 uses the Clean%26amp;Clear Acne program and she said for her it really worked. I would suggest getting one of those. In the meantime start taking some vitamins and drink tons of water. Don't overwash your face because drying it out causes MORE acne. This passes I promise.
I am 24 and still get breakouts like that! You are fine. Use a little foundation and concealer. That should help. Try the neutrogena foundation made for acne-prone skin. I've been to a dermatologist, I've tried everything, proactiv and acnefree... Some people are just born with bad skin. But yours isn't near as bad as others.
People will probably hate you, but not because of your acne.
People tend to gravitate away from people who obsess over things like this.
Well it doesent look that bad to me... I wouldnt mind if i stand next to you, but thats just part of growing up it will pass dont worry, didnt those dermatologists said something to go? listen to them

5. When you notice black heads or pimples do not squeeze them out with your nails!!!! EVER! You can try and get rid of the black heads by softly squeezing them out with your fingers COVERED in paper towel and only then!
6. ALWAYS remove make up off your face. NEVER go to sleep with make up on! Wash your face the way i described above, at the end of a day with make up on. A concealer for acne treatment like the one by ';Neutrogena'; is good for the skin, make up is not good.
Hopefully these will help you :)

its not that bad.
try using makeup or get your mum to buy you some bio oil :3
Seriously don't worry. My friend suffered with acne and hers was alot worse than yours, trust me!
Try using concealer or foundation just to cover it for school. Also I would recommend trying Clinique's Anti-Blemish Soloutions, which should help clear your skin.
Also people are not going to hate you! Alot more people than you think suffer with acne so your not alone.
Hope that helps (:
You don`t look like you've been hit by any bloody bullets!
It isn`t that bad. You would look much better if you smiled, as opposed to the gloomy frown. What skincare products are you using? harsh products can be just as bad as none at all. Try cleansing you face twice a day with an Aveeno cleanser,and then exfoliating twice a week with a St. Ives scrub... It will remove dead skin, help control acne, and make your face glow. When I get BAD zits ( well, bad for me) I use a clay mask on my face. They dry up your zits and give you an awesome complexion. But you may have MORE acne for a couple days because it draws everything up. You can find them in the Beauty Aisle. I use on called Aztec from a health food store.. It`s like $8 for 1 Ib. Always moisturize after this. I also use a gentler Neutrogena spot cream at night for individual spots. You also need to clean out any zits with pus in the middle. It Sounds gross, but it isn`t, really.
Not crazy bad. Try putting on make up.
I think you are fine.
i had really large painful bumps on that same spot. i tried so many different products and then i went to a doctor in mexico who told me that i had liver and kidney problems. he gave me some medicine and not even a week passed when my face cleared up. he also made me give up coke, chips, anything that is artificially flavored.
okay. you're totally over-reacting. it's not bad at all. i had worst back in the 7th grade. it totally cleared up. and yours will too.
wear foundation to hide the red-ness if you want to hide it, because the bumps aren't bad, just seeing the red is what people think is ugly really.
so, get some face wash, i use Clean And Clear, and it works great, or get prescribed face wash from a dermatologist or medicine (my friend was on medicine for his acne , its now all cleared up ) and don't worry about it.
walk into school with a big smile on your face, and act totally confident, and everyone will over look the acne.
i promise it.
thats not bad at all
almost every kid in school will have acne dont worry its a part of growing up
its not too bad. just find a skin clearing foundation to wear at school or whatever and youll be fine.
No ones gonna hate you cuz of your acne. There are people with MUCH worse acne than you in high school. dont worry about it.
It's not that bad. But as a girl your going to think it's the end of the world. Have you tried anything for it? The AcneFree systems they sell at Walmart and stuff tend to work really well. I used it for awhile and it cleared my breakouts up. I switched to Proactiv and it works really well too. (there was nothing wrong with AcneFree I just felt like trying Proactiv) My sister who is 17 uses the Clean%26amp;Clear Acne program and she said for her it really worked. I would suggest getting one of those. In the meantime start taking some vitamins and drink tons of water. Don't overwash your face because drying it out causes MORE acne. This passes I promise.
I am 24 and still get breakouts like that! You are fine. Use a little foundation and concealer. That should help. Try the neutrogena foundation made for acne-prone skin. I've been to a dermatologist, I've tried everything, proactiv and acnefree... Some people are just born with bad skin. But yours isn't near as bad as others.
People will probably hate you, but not because of your acne.
People tend to gravitate away from people who obsess over things like this.
Well it doesent look that bad to me... I wouldnt mind if i stand next to you, but thats just part of growing up it will pass dont worry, didnt those dermatologists said something to go? listen to them
How bad is body acne to girls?
Im near 16 and i am told a lot by girls my age that im very cute and i feel a sense of confidence that i could really have any girl that i wanted. Right now i am sort of with this girl and we are approaching that part in our relationship where we are considering having sex. Im in shape and have a beach body but i unfortunately have mild acne on my upper chest shoulders and back but nothing really on my face. Im afraid that when i take my shirt off she is going to get freaked out and think im some dirty kid. I have tried all sorts of washes and im trying to keep it under control. If you were in the girls position, what would you think about it? (they are mostly small red dots and scars)How bad is body acne to girls?
Chances are, it will most likely be dark anyway, and she won't be able to see. If your body is really as great as you say, then most likely she won't pay attention to that part. She should be concentrating on another place... ;) but yea, if it's just a little, most girls won't notice or won't care, as long as there are other things to distract them.How bad is body acne to girls?
Well.... I honestly wouldn't care because I have to take medicine for that... I don't care about acne on other people, because I have it and that's hypocritical.... I think that you'll be fine.
: -)
We don鈥檛 exactly love it, but if this girl cares for you then she won鈥檛 mind.
I will suggest for this problem, for a start stop using washes as these strip away natural oils which actually causes skin to produce more oil which clogs pores, for face I鈥檇 normally recommend oil cleansing method but that can鈥檛 really be used on the body. What I would recommend instead is get some exfoliating gloves for when you鈥檙e washing, you can pick these up cheap from any supermarket or pharmacy, just lather up and scrub skin in small circles. At the end of your bath or shower try cosmetic vinegar, or just simple apple cider vinegar, this is not only exfoliating (stripping off top layers of dead skin 鈥?what鈥檚 probably happening is these dead skin cells are blocking the pores so causing spots) 鈥?it also promotes circulation, regulates skins pH and is antiseptic, also don鈥檛 worry as you won鈥檛 smell of vinegar as it doesn鈥檛 smell once dry, or just try putting it on a few minutes before the end of your shower and then rinse off. Then when you get out of the bath or shower use olive oil on your skin 鈥?it鈥檚 moisturising and healing, it will also help keep the skin healthy to prevent spots.oil companies
