Acne treatment/proactiv?

*ACNE QUESTION* acne acne acne acne, HELP ME!!?

  • Products don't work, face masks don't work, ordinary water doesn't work, diets don't work, natural remedies don't work.. Nothing works for me, I've tried alot of things, probably not everything but all the leading tips that people claim left there skin "glowing and acne free" just gets rid of 1 or 2 pimples for me, and about a week later that 1 or 2 that disappeared come back bigger, uglier, and itchier! I badly need to do something about it, it's not just on my face, I've got bacne too.. Ugh!! I hate my life!! I'm not ugly, but my acne makes me ugly :( it's really embarrassing, and it just drags down my self-asteem every time I get even a glimpse of myself in a reflection.. Just please somebody tell me how to ACTUALLY get rid of acne.. It doesn't even have to be a one off thing, I can get into a new daily routine easily!! **The only thing I will never do are sun beds because I don't want cancer. I don't care how little they say the chance is, I'd rather suffer acne than die, skin cancers kills!** Please help.. I can't cope anymore.. Seriously!! ♥ Also, don't answer this question unless you have proof that it will work, and if you are gonna redirect me to a website showing somebody with acne and then another picture with better lighting and totally photoshopped then please don't bother, this is real life, not a photoshop project! Thank you, and bye?

    I know how you feel I HAD awful acne but thats because of my disease and of being a teenager but,anyways my dermatologist pretty much gave me a new life! If you dont have one then thats okay, but i dont know if you can get 1 of the things im gonna mention! okay so here we go there is product i use called Clean & Clear Continuous Control Acne Cleanser.. That stuff is like JESUS!!!! Use it night and day Then there is this almost like clear gel its called Ziana your only suppose to put it on 2 or 3 times a week the motto a little does a lot goes for this!!!! BUT!!! im not sure how you can get it my doctor said you can order it offline of the http://www.ziana.com/ but i get mine from my pharmacy, and last but NOT LEAST i take a medication called Doxycycline i take it twice a day, now that i know your gonna need a referal from a doctor and maybe even the Ziana if you cant buy it offline anyways the Clean & Clear Continuous Control Acne Cleanser you can get from almost anywhere!!!! tHIS STUFF WORKS FAST IT YOU STICK TO THE ROUTINE literally in 2 months 3 tops my face ways like a babys... Also if you have scars from your acne you can get this over the counter gel called Mederma scar gel. Its over the counter at your pharmacy! I really hope this helps because I know how you feel I couldnt even stand going out into public but you gotta stay strong and by the time your back in school next year your face well be back to its normal clean and happpy self!!!

Okay this sounds really weird but it works. Get some white toothpaste. (It has to be all white and it cant be gel or anything like that). Now put a little on each zit and wait until it is completly dry. (I just sleep with it on overnight). When it is dry just scrub it off. That shrinks the zit a ton! Hope I helped :)

I too suffer with acne really bad on my back so I get how you feel. Go to your doctor and they will prescribe you with a few treatments and many of them might work. Another option is to go to a dermatologist (could go privately or your doctor can refer you if you have severe acne), and they will prescribe you with better treatments. I am currently on a course of roaccutane which is a pretty nasty drug (because of all the side effects), yet it is extremely affective! I hope your acne gets better and believe me it will do, I have been suffering with acne for around 6 years now and I wish that I had done something about it sooner. I am now 16 :)

Hello there! Sorry to hear that acne has made you feel that way about yourself. I had the same problems and here's some stuff that worked for me! :-) Do drink lots of water!! Try and drink a 2L bottle everyday, really helpful! HOMEMADE REMEDIES I find that baking soda can be very helpful. Wash your face in the morning and night with baking soda using circular scrubbing motions on the face. You can also dab it onto wet skin and keep it on there for 10 minutes like a face mask. Very effective for me! STORE BOUGHT PRODUCTS If you are looking into buying products here is what I found useful to clear up spots when used daily in the morning and night. Clean & Clear Deep Cleansing Facial Wipes (http://www.superdrug.com/face/clean+clear-deep-cleansing-facial-wipes-x25/invt/700690/&bklist=) This contains salicylic acid which I find really helpful for my skin. Use this in the morning and the night. This can be a little costly as the wipes can run out quickly but they are very effective. Garnier Pure Active Exfo-Brusher Wash (http://www.boots.com/en/Garnier-Pure-Active-Exfo-Brusher-Wash_1043973/) Although a little pricy, I found this really effective when used in the morning and the night! Something that really is essential for healthy glowing skin is to tone and cleanse your skin after you wash it. If your skin is oily sometimes it is best to use just a moisturising toner after washing your face instead of a facial cream. Here are the cleansing and moisturising toners which I found the best for my skin. Tea Tree & Peppermint Cleanser/Toner (http://www.superdrug.com/face/tea-tree+peppermint-cleansertoner-200ml/invt/587184/&bklist=) This one is really good and smells great too! Just apply to a dry face after washing. Clean & Clear Sensitive Cleansing Lotion (http://www.superdrug.com/face/clean+clear-sensitive-cleansing-lotion-200ml/invt/220806/&bklist=) This can sting a little but really does help the skin very much. Apply this to a dry face after washing the face. I know this is something people will tell you that sounds impossible but try not to touch your face and keep any hair off your face and your spots should clear up in no time! My final piece of advice to you is when you get home from school or work try and wash your face as soon as possible! You will feel fresh and clean. I sometimes wash my face three times a day. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Good luck! :-)

i use quinoderm. i have acne and it works well :) or go to the doctors and they give you antibiotics or this stuff called retin-a which really dries up spots!

I was like you tried everything on the shelves I had BAD acne everywhere HUGE spots! I had to result to the doctors he put me on a course of tablets and this cream called DUAC for a year and my acne cleared and never came back! :D Seriously see your doctor about this! :)
