1. Wash your face at least 3 times a day. This ensures that new pimples & zits will not occur on your skin. Washing your face regularly opens the blocked pores on your skin and applying a good moisturizer (oil free) helps to form new, clear the skin.
2. If you want to get rid of acne scars, never pop zits / pimples. It can be very tempting but the fact is, popping the pimples on your skin results in tiny cracks on skin which are difficult to heal and appear as scars.

4. Use honey to get rid of acne scars. Applying honey on the acne affected skin helps to reduce acne scars. Drinking honey in warm water also gives you a beautiful and clear skin.
5. To get rid of acne scars, use rosewater and sandalwood. Make a paste and use on the area of the skin with acne scars and you will see the difference in few weeks.

I am going to school for esthetics and I know that a machine facial or beta peel would be good for your skin. Try going to a medical spa. I would do it if u lived anywhere near me.

Try the soap algas Maria. It’s a green natural bar soap. I saw a difference in a few days!

I found it very difficault to get rid of scars and acne bro. I tried everything. This is what i did to get rid of acne. I never touched my face. Even if i had a pimple, DO NOT touch it AT ALL! The pus are dead cells used to fight the bacteria.(yes i did a shit load of research,, thats how i know). First use a gentle cleanser like biore OR l’oreal with the green pad scrub thingy. Start washing ur face with warm to hot water for a min. Then use your cleanser and wash. DO NOT WASH HARD! I did this cause i was sick n tired of acne(it makes it worse). continue wash for 2-3 mins warm water. Then rinsse with ice cold water(closes pores). Then PAT yourself dry with a clean towel. Change your pillow sheets once a week at least. Drink LOTS of water and do some physical activity, but make sure to wash your face with reg water after you sweated(dont let the sweat dry up). When your finished washing you can use a lotion that says non-cosmogedic or something like that(wont clog pores). If your skin is oily then but a moisturizer. If itsdry then gets oily alot, dont use anything. Just let your skin fo the work, but make sure to wash your face like midday to wipe off excess oil with just plain warm-to cold water. For scars, buy Scar Zone. Works GREAT! Dont use too much cause itll clog u up! Im 16 barely, but i cleared up alot! If that doesnt work out, then see a derm for antibiotics or possibly Accutane. I hope this helps bro. I had low self esteem too. I coulnt luk at ppl tbh, then everything changed! Good luck!!

Thanks for all the useful information. It will definitely help me out. it has taken me years to try and cure my acne, hopefully with your info I will finally be able to do it!
December 30th, 2010 at 2:52 am
Brad,
Try clinique 3 step skincare system. I used to have bad acne, It’s helped me heaps.
If nothing else works, and i mean nothing, you can try going on accutane. You have to go to your doctor to get it. Maybe GP, im not sure. Its really harsh, and you should not use it if you have any other options. Theres more ino on the net, and videos on youtube bout it too. But dont use it if you have any other solution. I just know what its like to live with acne.
Hope I helped <3

My problom though is my scars i can’t make them go away i heard people say all differnt kinds of things work, but which ones actually do? If ANYONE has ANY advice,tips,do’s and don’ts, I would be MORE than happy to hear them.

hi
when i used to use egg whites to clear my face and lemon juice to wash it off, i had no scars, but now i use a really extreme thing that really works but it dries out your skin eventually and i think its what caused my scars. if your wondering what it is,because it works really great, it just causes other things (lol), it’s Clearasil maximum strength acne treatment cream. anyway, to get rid of your scars, take some egg whites and use a q-tip to put it all over the areas (zits too because that’s how mine went away)and let it sit there for at least 20 minutes (more if you feel you should wait longer) and then put the lemon juice on the same spots with a cotton ball. after it dries, go to sleep. when you wake up, wash your face and eat a healthy breakfast.
well i think i can help all of you with a quick and easy technique i learned

January 17th, 2011 at 3:17 pm
Thats very good information, but I disagree with your first point that we should wash AT LEAST three times a day. I feel 2 times is minimum and MAX to 3.

I was prescribed epiduo to help heal my acne scars. It seemed to work and now my face is just scarred. I use vitamin E oil and it’s helped with some of the redness, but for the most part my scarring wants to stay. I just learned to wash 2 times a day, drink water, walk a bit and don’t touch my face. It’s helped me from breaking out more… My skin was clearing up and out of nowhere I broke out. I’m even on birth control… i don’t care much anymore. I don’t have low self esteem and I have a boyfriend. After a while you can only do so much. Try seeing a derm. if they don’t work use a paste.
January 31st, 2011 at 7:04 pm
Here are my tried and true tips:
-Try cutting out Dairy products
-For ladies, try the birth control called Jasmine
-Use Dove sensistive bar soap- it is very mild
-Don’t put anything on your face (ie. makeup, sunscreen, moisturizer) unless its non comodgenic (which means won’t clog pores, not the same as oil free or things that say won’t clog pores look for the proper term)
-Eat Healthy, nutritious foods
-Most importantly, follow your dreams and do things that truly make you happy. A life full of happiness with no stress really helps.
-And be confident this will pass

Ok I had acne and I just cleared up and I feel awsome listen to alejandro and also control what u eat cuz acne has to do with your insides two and also get a vitamin E cream and use a low powered non pore clogging sun screen ull be clear completley by thre and 1 have months but don’t pop ur face remember having a white little bubble on ur face is better then getting scars and red marks that are hard to get rid of.
February 6th, 2011 at 5:33 am
Use the rose water and sandalwood, it works like a charm!!
mix in some cucumber juice and a few drops of lemon, it’ll be even better. make enough for the week, and store it in the fridge so it doesn’t dry up overnight. So apply it daily on your whole face, let it dry completely and then rub it off with an ice cube and then cold water. I had a lot of acne, and this worked like a charm. I’m pretty much acne free now. It took me three-four months, but it worked! good luck guys!
February 7th, 2011 at 8:52 am
Sulfur soap with sugar worked for my bro !!
But everyone has different skins..
I have acne scars and am going to do what alejandro said sounds like a good solution.
I hate it because it takes happiness of u n u can’t enjoy life like others.

Sometimes i squeeze out (only a little ones), and cleanse with a salicylic acid.

I am a mother of a 15 years old and she has been battling acne for a long time. My advice: Go to a good dermatologist; if necessary the doctor will give you oral antibiotics which made a great improvement in my daugther’s face. Continue with the creams they will give you, depending on your acne, and please, do not eat junk food of greasy stuff, drink lots of water and exercise so you can get rid of all the impurities. Remember that we are what we eat!!
March 5th, 2011 at 4:33 pm
okay im an elevn years old girl and i already have acne scars. i have tried EVERYTHING and nothing seems to work. oh please,pretty please could someone just give me somethign that really does work.
March 7th, 2011 at 4:13 am
Hey, instead of washing ur face with a washcloth or cleanser try chilling lemon juice and then pu
Some on a cotton ball and dab in a different spot every 3 seconds!
March 7th, 2011 at 5:31 pm
I had horrible acne my junior year of high school. I used everything under the sun and what absolutley worked was the DDF acne line, you can find it at sephora. It’s expensive but TOTALLy worth it. Different things work for different poeple so this might not work for you, but it litterally saved my life so it is worth a try. My acne is 100% under controll 3 years later because of it, but I am still stuggling with the scars. I just have the dark marks that look like flat pimples, it sucks!
March 8th, 2011 at 7:35 am
Well, I’m 18 years old. I’ve never really had bad acne until I was 17. I was using a Clearasil product for a bit (can’t remember which specific one) but at that time I was severely broke out on my right cheek. My boyfriend was going to take me on a fancy date, and well, ya know you always wanna look your best, so the first thing I wanted to get rid of was my acne. I was stupid & used a lil bit of everything on my cheek. :/ Toothpaste, Clearasil, alcohol, some kind of pore cleansing pads & vitamin E for the moisturizer. I left it overnight & the next day my skin was soo dried out; it felt,& even looked like cardboard. And to make it worse, I applied all of the products in a circular figure & it made a dark circle on my face, pretty much took up the whole far right side of my cheek. It took weeks of embarrassment for this to go away. It is now about 8 months later & I have 2 scars on the same side of my face. They’re not noticeable with make up, but sometimes I just like to go natural. I used to get comments on my skin, but not anymore. I have consistently tried a lot in the past month, which isn’t much time for drastic results, but I know how it ia to anxious. It’s very hard for me to be patient
if I would have been more patient though, I wouldn’t have these scars. I also have a HORRIBLE habit picking & popping my face. Bad idea! Don’t do it. I’m really trying to stop. It makes things worse. I am currently using Mederma & will continue to until the tube is gone. Hopefully I will see results. For smaller after acne red marks I went a natural way & experimented using Honey, lemon juice, vitamin e oil & cinnamon, mix it together, put in the microwave until warm, dabbed on spots with a qtip, put a bandaid over it & left it over night. Wake up & wash skin with a gentle soap. Ii used to use noxzema & it broke me out. Everyone is different. I know this probably won’t be too helpful. I’ve just basically blabbed about myself, but if I haven’t shared anything useful, I’ll say this; if you’ve tried everything you can, don’t let it beat ya down. Be confidential in who you are & if people wil love you. (:
March 10th, 2011 at 7:23 pm
Okay so I suffered from acne for as soon as I got out of highschool. Now I tried everything from proactive to clinique….but they only seem to work a few months and then I would break out again. It was so uncomfortable. So what worked for was washing my face at least twice a day. Do not touch your face and if you are wash your hands. Also I washed my face with an apricot scrub n would rub it in in a circular motion. Rinse off and wash my face with biore(the one that says ice on it). Rinse it off and pat dry. This routine has done miracles for me. I hope it does for you too. Oh and a mask once a week. Its homemade, its honey, lemon, n sugar all mixed together. You put it on ur face for 15 min and then rinse it off. When you wash ur face n dry it n it starts off dry n then oily, don’t use a moisturizer and if it js stays dry then use an oil free moisturizer, I would recommend white tea moisturizer from urban decay. I hope this helps!

@ waterlily try the new clinique even better dark spot remover, it’s a bit pricy but it works excellent on acne scars. I had acne scars and razor burns when I shave over the pimples and they let dark acne scars, used the dark spot corrector and it worked great, ask for a sample but clean your face twice a day and your acne/scars will be gone.

Hey i deal with acne scars to its really annoying how u see people walk around with their clear skin so what i did was apply aloe vera to my face the gel only. you can also try using potatoes cut a potato and rub it on to your face. Another way is getting tomatoes and just get the juice squeze out the juice and apply that on to your face you will see change within a week.
GOODLUCK:)

Hey, I have mild acne around my nose/chin/forehead, and i pop the bad zits, and it leaves flat round pale red scars that are easy to cover up with makeup, but are still annoying. I heard that olive oil has a lot of Vitamin E in it, and Vitamin E helps to heal and get rid of scars/acne. So, put some olive oil on a cotton ball, and put it on the area in the morning and before you go to bed.
April 4th, 2011 at 9:54 pm
Im trying everything i possably can and nothinging is working oce my face gets used to something it stops working ! i hate it !

April 14th, 2011 at 9:26 pm
This has helped so much. I am 15 and i have had acne since i was 12. I have tried everything from medication, to proactive, even saw a skin doctor for over 2 years. NOTHING HELPED. I cleaned my face everynight and morning, Didnt touch it with my hands, Stayed clear of it and made sure no ewwies were buliding up. Somedays i wouldnt even leave the house becase my face was red, and covered. Reading these make me feel like im not the only one, So Thankyou!!

Hey there, I’m in 100% agreement with Olivia (March 29)
[one of the guys in high school I had a crush on had acne all over his face, I still thought he was good-looking!]
)
Look at how many people on here are commenting about acne and how embarrassing it is! Now if we all decided that acne is a natural stage in life and realized that most people we know are experiencing the same thing, there’s no reason to be embarrassed! God gave us our skin and if we take good care of it (water, sleep, good foods), our problems will go away in the right time. Just take the time now to find out who you are and be confident in the skin you’re in (no matter how others try to make you feel). You’re all beautiful/handsome
Hope you all discover the beauty in you and find healing in the right time.

April 30th, 2011 at 1:28 am
Hi, let me tell you something that really cure me acne once for all and I hope this can help you, first make sure that are eating the amount of fat that your body needs(no more or less, and don’t eat fast food go for the healthy stuff like avocado or peanuts), if you are not eating enough fat your skin condition can get worse, many doctors told me this and its true.
Then start taking this vitamins(for one month) E, A, C and Niacin, the results are amazing, you wont get any more pimples. for the ones that you already have there are many options first Salicylic acid, if you are allergic to this try Benzoyl peroxide 10% its the best, for those who want something natural try tree tea oil.
And finally to get rid of the scars, once a week exfoliate your skin, and every night(only at night) with a cotton pad apply lemon juice.
May 2nd, 2011 at 4:33 am
I’m 18 and have had severe acne since i was 12. Most products didn’t work at all for me so i had to live with horrible skin until roughly last year when i started mixing my own “concoctions” What works wonderfully for me now is this: Wash you face daily with a simple moisturizing face wash, like “Yes to Carrots Daily Cream Cleanser”, before bed apply a good, rich moisturizer, like “Acne Free Green Tea Moisturizer”. Let that dry then apply “Zapzyt 10% Benzoyl Peroxide” (yes i know this is a high concentration which is why you put on the moisturizer first, otherwise your skin would feel like sandpaper) Leave this on overnight. In the morning wash with the cleanser again then use a homemade facial scrub, i’ve made one with a couple spoonfuls of white sugar, olive oil, a dash of cinnamon, a lot of honey, some orange extract, and a little aloe vera( this works really really well to fade scars as well). Mix it up and apply to wet skin, gently massage into your face in circular motions for about a minute (more if your skin is especially rough) rinse with cool water and pat face dry. Then once or twice a week use ” Queen Helene’s Mint Julep Mask” to purge pores and dry up blackheads and ‘blind pimples’ it works wonders and smells great.
I hope this helps, so far it’s the only “system” that has worked for me and my trouble skin. Lots of luck
May 3rd, 2011 at 2:45 am
1. wash your face morning, and night. 2. put lotion on(oil free) after every wash. 3. put sunscreen on. 4. go with a leaffy diet. 5. for pimple marks use tomato and leave it on or 20 minutes a day.:D
May 5th, 2011 at 4:44 pm
I feel for anyone who has bad acne, it is awful to live with. My son has it, so I have done allot of research on how to get rid of it. You do have to wash your face gently, but also take in fiber, like the one they have at Walmart, that is orange flavored, but it doesn’t have to be that one, and water and vitamin c . Because your body is not getting rid of waste, so it is getting rid of some of it through your pours. It is not your fault that you have it, your body just needs some help getting rid of it. It may not be a perfect plan, but it has helped my son. I hope it helps someone else.
May 6th, 2011 at 1:30 am
ok so im 16 and my acne started when i turned around 14,its not as bad as alot of peoples,but i still hate it. i wish i had that flat clear skin that i see on everyone. im trying this 3 step program deal i found at walmart and it worked and now only works lightly. i hydrate alot for sports,i work out alot and shower regularly. but is there anything else that REALLY matters and will work? dos and donts will help! contact me at ex5852 at yahoo dot com if you have any advice!
May 12th, 2011 at 5:56 pm
Bathe in the sea, a lot…the salty water helps your skin heal faster,I lost my acne in 7 days…but that was a couple of years ago when i had less acne

May 21st, 2011 at 2:31 pm
To get rid of acne I recommend using Neutrogena Oil Free Acne wash. Another thing is using anti bacterial solution. You can get this by going to your doctor. Use oil free lotion. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables as they contain lots of vitamins to help your skin. One more thing is try supplements. I use supplements so I make sure I have all the vitamins I need daily. Drink atleast 2 bottles of water everyday. If this helped you cool.
May 22nd, 2011 at 3:44 am
Hey guys, i have pretty clear skin but i do have a few blackheads just like everyone else out there and i also have little white bumps on my face for the longest time! Something that i see improvment in is organic facial washes. They arent that expensive and you can find in all different stores like target, drug stores, any thing like that. They dont smell the greatest or feel the greatest but they work.
I wash my face with a soap (facial cleanser)i like clean and clear with bursting beads, then i use the organic cleaser both in the shower so the steam can help, then at night i use a moisturizer that u dont wash off. I like the oatmeal scrubs that come in little packs, which u can also find in most stores. It all helps make ur skin look smoother. Hope this helps!

May 24th, 2011 at 9:50 pm
I have a bit of acne on my face and a bunch on my forehead, and I have a habit of popping pimples and picking scabs all the time, and it’s always leaving these annoying scars. I’m trying to get rid of both the acne and the scars, but so far it’s only going down and then coming back. I so far have tried some Cetaphil stuff that I tried, but it did not seem to work, but then I tried to use natural Tea Tree Oil and it’s been working amazingly. The only thing is, if I forget to use it one day, it comes back right fast. I have been trying to get rid of the scars too, but I can’t find anything that works. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN TRY FOR BOTH MY ACNE AND SCARS? Also, it’s a good thing I don’t like my hair short or keep my hair above my forehead.
Another reason I want to get rid of it is because my friends sometimes tease me about my acne and it’s really embarrassing.

Okay everyone, ive had acne since I was 12 I’m 17 now. If your serious about clear skin you need to cleanse your body INSIDE and out, if you put zit zappers on over night while your eating greasy fast food your not going to have long lasting results if any at all. All the toxins in your body are being prosessed by your liver and all the remander toxins go to the lagest organ you have, YOUR SKIN ! Your body needs a lot of different nutriants, don’t just eat banans all day and expecting to see a mirical , don’t touch your face, be productive in your life, and have fun, people shouldn’t be so worked up over acne. Eat healthy food and drink ALOT of water, not all at once but through out the day, if your thristy you’re already dehydrated, and stay away from soda ! My skin glows and has bounce to it and I feel great, so seriously, eat healthy and try supplementing some pills like fish oil or vitamin E. Put good in and it will reflect on your skin and personality, it might take 3 days to see improvement but that’s just your body adapting and being cleasned of toxins. Try your best to stay away from sugar and refined foods, this might sound over whelming but listen. Use your common sense, if your eating crap, that that’s what you’ll look like, plain and simple. Sometimes you just have to force yourself to not eat those french fries. Hope this helped, and wish you luck.

I have acne on my forehead mostly. Firstly, try not to rub,itch or squeeze them. If the pus spreads it creates more. Also try the clearasil overnight face wash. It shrunk the spots and reduced the redness of my scars within a couple of days. Also if you go to your local GP, they might give you this face wash liquid which help acne from appearing altogether. You just use it twice a day. The food thing does work but usually over a long period of time so if you want fast results try the stuff I said above. Hope this helps!!
June 22nd, 2011 at 5:16 pm
To add… by the clearasil stuff from Boots if you live in the UK. Sorry anyone else

July 6th, 2011 at 5:42 pm
I’ve had horrible acne for like 6 years. -_- I started using this thing called “Exposed Skin Care” a couple of weeks ago and my face is almost completely clear!! You guys should go check out their website.
July 7th, 2011 at 5:57 am
Hey folks, just to let you know none of these cosmetic treatments will help you get rid of acne, its just a waste of money. The real truth is that acne are caused in most cases by food allergies. You get acne everyday because you eat food that does not fit your organism. Try eating Boiled Potatoes and non fat meat (without spices, only salt) + some apples for a few days. You will see that you wont get any new acne.

Hey, I’m 14 years old and I’ve had acne for about 2 years. I hate it, my acne is TERRIBLE. I’ve used just about everything. Right now, I have a long process to clean my face. I start out washing my face with proactiv ( first step), then i use my wave sonic from neutrogena, which is AMAZING. My skin feels great after I use it. I recomend going to a dermatologist, I use Clenia, which is clearing up my skin in less than a month of using it. I use a facial mask twice a week: Freeman Facial Clay Avoacdo & Oatmeal. It’s really good on the skin. I always use the refining mask maybe twice a week, if i have a bad pimple. The Avocado & Oatmeal mask has made my acne scars lighten. I use Mederma 3 time a day, which has helped some of the smaller ones go away fast. I’m trying home remedies like rubbing olive oil on your skin for a few minutes, and waiting 20mins. I have yet to see a result, and hope I don’t break out. Hope I could be of assistance!

Hi. Right now, I’m suffering acne scars. More on my left cheek then my right cheek and not so much on my forehead. In the first place, I got SEVERE acne because for a month straight I slept very late as in until 4AM in the morning. Day by day, my face became worse because I was just TOO ATTACHED to the computer games I were playing. I only realized that my face looked bad when I looked at the mirror in a mall WITH HEAVY LIGHTS and saw huge pimples and some acne scars. So then I decided to have my face treated–PAINFULLY by skin experts and sold me medicine for my face. My face got rid of pimples but the problem is, the scars remain. I got no sure remedy for ‘em but, I wanna try these things you guys are talking about and I’ll be posting some results when I see better results.
Let’s live happy no matter what!

14, I took vitamin A supplement pills, and they actually work! You won’t see results until about 3 months but it will work trust me. Slow process, but you have to be patient. You can find vitamin A supplement pills at any drug store and they’re not expensive. Just take one small vitamin A a day.
July 15th, 2011 at 3:23 am
Hey who every is reading this! Well i have no pimples or acne at all! But i had a major break out in 2010 and now there is scaring on my chin and forehead… any ideas to get rid of the scaring without drying my skin or having it effect with my medication im taking so i dont get break outs again??????please help!
July 15th, 2011 at 10:40 pm
how the heck do i get rid of blackheads i have tried everything and nothing has worked
July 17th, 2011 at 4:02 am
I think you guys should try sea buckthorn oil. You can find it on Amazon.com for cheap, like $6-$18 a bottle depending on brand and size. That’s what I’ve been using and for me, it has been showing results. It may take longer but it’s all natural and the vitamin e will help your skin heal which can reduce acne scars. Also, make sure to use a good face wash without parabens or pore clogging ingredients. If you have a few hundred to spend, a blue acne light also shows pretty good results. I’ve tried everything and these two things seem to have worked better than everything else. I HATE ACNE. It makes me so introverted and ruins my self esteem.

I am a black 14 year old, a few months a go I started to have bad acne. But then I popped a bunch of pimples on my forehead and they became bad scars, and I still have a ton of acne. HELP!!!!

hey guys, i have had acne really bad because my skin is oily but i recently bought this facewash called “Paula’s Choice” its the 3-step extra strength kind and my face was clear within a week. i would wash it morning and night but then i stopped washing it in the morning because i was lazy and i got a pimple on my cheek and my chin and i picked them and then i put this really strong acne stuff that dries your skin out to clear your acne on it and it burned my skin around the pimple and they are huge redish purpleish spots and i start high school next week can someone give me advice please
August 15th, 2011 at 5:04 am
Nice..nice..nice..really nice tips. Acne scars appear in a couple different forms, raised and depressed. You can also be affected with skin discoloration, which can be just as obnoxious. Once you determine your acne scars type, you will know if natural and home remedies will be able to help you get rid of acne scars or if you need to upgrade to commercial products or even see a dematologist or surgeon.
August 16th, 2011 at 11:46 am
hi guys, i also suffer from acne. the best thing is to consult a dermatologist and use a antibacterial acne cream, cos it controls the newly forming acne. the keep your face clean. do not touch your face. drink min 2 ltrs of water. eat lots of fruits and vegetables. very important thing is just try to be happy and avoid unwanted stress. cos stress involve in unbalanced hormone levels, which causes acne. then do a complete clean up to your face. that thing reduces acne and gives you a clear skin. please don’t trust those cosmetics advertised to be acne aids. cos they want help you. to fade of marks use a whitening cream….
August 19th, 2011 at 3:41 pm
To start, i know what everyone is going threw. Acne sucks away your free will to do what you want. Ive had acne for five plus years, ever since third grade to be exact. My advice is to use salicylic acid. Wash your face every day, even if you think its not necasery. Dont touch your face. Ive got scars on my face to prove that picking your face makes it even worse. Eat right, cut back on dairy and sugar. I have and it has made dramatic improvments. Everyones skin is different, it may not work on everyone. Some people do need dairy and sugar. Dont touch your face, i cant stress that enough. If anyone knows any tips to clear acne scars please tell. I read all the comments above but i would like some other tips for back up plans. Please help
August 19th, 2011 at 6:04 pm
I’m only 11 and I had acne since the end of 3rd grade! Now I’m going to 6th grade and during the summer I’ve been using Nature’s Cure products and they cleared up my acne in about 3 weeks. I would wake up, pray over the pill (not strong and was chewable), then wash my face with pHisoderm anti-blemish gel facial wash, then dry my face, then put the oil free cream on that kinda dries out your face at first but then it stops after a while the i do the same before sleep because its a.m and p.m pills. Its not that strong but I didn’t have bad acne so my acne has lessened so I hope that your will too!
August 22nd, 2011 at 6:05 am

August 23rd, 2011 at 12:24 am
I’m 15 years old and I have moderate acne. My acne started in 5th grade continuing on into 10th grade. I have tried several medications, most have not worked. After going to the dermatologist I was given a cream, a face/ body wash, and pills. The pills did nothing, the cream eventually helped but got worse before it got better, then last the face/body wash worked for my back pretty well. My back broke out bad, but when I used the wash and went in the sun, it healed pretty well, including the acne scars on my back. I have recently found out that Witch Hazel takes out some of the redness and drys it out so that it can heal. Right now I use the cream, the wash, and the witch hazel on my face. The only problem is the scarring. It has gotten a bit better from going in the pool (the chlorine helps a lot for clearing pimples!!!) MY QUESTION: Does the tomatos and/or lemon juice really help or does it make you break out even more? P.S. Mederma helps but veryyyyy slowlyyy.
August 24th, 2011 at 5:50 am
One word, Acutane.
I had horrible acne, scars turning purple and a face it hurt to
even run water over. Its only been three months of a six month
trial and my face is a million times better. My scars diminished,
sure I have a few pink blemishes on my skin but it’s much better
then horrid purple scars and not a single pimple on my face.
Works instantly! I owe my life to this stuff! Plus the doc said 85%
of people who take this medicine never get acne again!
August 25th, 2011 at 11:49 pm
Okay so like everyone else, i have pretty bad acne and ive had it for about 4 years now.im 15 and i want to warn those who are just expieriencing acne…DO NOT PICK OR POP UR PIMPLES!THEY MOST LIKELY WILL FORM SCARS!i used to lean on my hands alot and i have very oily skin.Lately ive been using biore face cleanser and afterwards applying a oil free lotion.It works fairly well but does not clear acne scars. i just recently started using a cream medication and i think i overused it an now my bumps are itchy, red, and flake-ish. im searching for a natural way to clear acne scars and what im going to try is a mixture i found on a website. It includes:
-mixture of tea tree oil, a tsp. of baking soda, honey, drops of water, and the oil from a vitamin E pill. mix this together and apply to face. If it causes irritation take out some of the ingredients.Im not positive this will work but it is all natural and has helped many people. I hope this has helped even just one person but goodluck on finding that mixture that works for you.and be happy the way god made you:)
