Everyone else who answered: your tips worked too! sorry i could only pick one best answer!! everyone else helped cure my acne! Report Abuse
my ex had really bad acne and i bought proactiv for him... it really works if you use all the steps they recommend though... you can't like just use the cleaner and not the toner...
Proactiv is the way to go. Soo many of my friends have used it and you can definently see the results.
First what are you eating or drinking? This sounds like a caffeine problem, coffee and colas are OUT for you. It isn't contact dermatitis. Because your back, front of legs, and face are normally the areas affected by foods, and smoking is another one that can cause acne, big times. Get some sun on your back and check out your diet.
I'm suffering with you, for the past 30 years (I'm 45!).
This guy - http://www.acne.org/regimen.html has an interesting approach; although I've never tried exactly what he says, it works for him.
For me, I would say go to a dermatologist ASAP - especially if you are young (teenager?). I didn't go soon enough and now I have bad acne scars on my face as a result (not that I could avoid them, but I think they wouldn't be as bad if I had gotten treatment sooner).
Stuff that works:
- Benzoyl Peroxide 10% - available in drugstore; dries you out and makes you red at first but keep using daily
- Accutane - prescription medication that is for SERIOUS cases only - very hard to take as it really dries out every part of your body! worked for me though
- BuffPuf / exfoliating / St. Ives Apricot Scrub / etc. when washing your face
There's a message board about Acne here - http://groups.google.com/group/alt.skinc鈥?/a> with other ideas.
Good luck - acne sucks!
well i use clearsil ultra it really works but put it on three times a day for three days it really works or get proactive but put it on time and follow the days and for you back i guess clersil ultr will work too. Good luck!
I agree with the first and the second people that answered becuase they both work really good
i'm 23 years old and for the past 6 years, i have just been buying different stuff everytime it runs out. i have yet to find a ';perfect'; treatment. pro-activ did NOT work for me. biore stuff is HORRIBLE, like the blackhead scrub.... was like 7 bucks and it made them worse, for me and my sister. i used that ike 3 times and threw it away.
what works for me at the moment:
*clearisil ultra: the tinted cream. the tinted cream kind of covers everything up with a thin layer so it kind of acts like a foundation but it's strong enough to fight zits. careful though because it will bleach fabric! i put it on my face whenever, but when i put it on my back i only do it at night and with a crappy shirt on. but i just slather this stuff on. i make sure to rub it in good during the day ofcourse, but at night i put more on and am not so careful. also, when i feel a bigger zit coming on.. i put a little ';pile'; of the stuff on the zit at night and when i wake up there is a huge difference.
*pure zone moisturizer by loreal: i just discovered this. it has the same kind of stuff as the clean and clear dual action moisturizer, but this works better for me and fights the hard undergrounder zits. i tried the pure zone astingent, i DID NOT like it. i feel that it made my skin smooth but also clogged my pores.
*if you are in junior high or highschool you probably have greasy skin and small little zits. when i had those i found that oxy10 cleansing pads worked great. they have a scrubbing texture and an astringent with the zit medicine that will dry the zits up super fast!
i think the main thing is just try everything out there. if something doesn't work during the first bottle of a product, there is no reason to buy it again, no matter how many people or commercials tell you it works. best of luck!
I had really bad acne and I got so desperate that I tried Proactive. IT WORKS! They make a body wash too, but I haven't tried it. If it works anything like the face wash though, it's for you!
Neutrogena it really good
i use that oh so famous treatment that jessica simpson promotes i forgot the name and for the body i use acne med with liquid body soap.
use nevia facil scrub its really gud i had da sme prob its all gud now
I'm not sure about your face, but you could try putting talcum powder on your back several times a day. I had acne on my chest and this worked for me.
i use neutrogena acne body wash for my back, and clean %26amp; clear morning burst on my face, they both work really well
Use Proactive it works for me! Also try to stop eating junk food and wash your face day and night.You will Be Beautiful with Proactive!!!!!!!!!!11
TRY OXY PADDS THEY WORKED FOR ME BELIVE ME CUZ I HAD SOME ON MY FORHEAD AND THERE GONE!
well i use neutragena( ithink that's how u spell it) or u could just wash ur face and back with regular soap. remember to use water cuz it doesn't work then
Panoxyl soap bar its the strongest thing without a prescription you can buy~ in fact you used to have to have a prescription to get it.
