without using proactive or clearisal. those 2 make my acne worse.|||ProActive works great. You can find this in malls at those little booths where they sell the unique stuff. You can order it online also (it costs less) or call them when you see their commercial on TV. Trust me, this stuff is a miracle, I used to have really bad acne but now it%26#039;s nearly gone!!
Oh, and if you%26#039;re brave enough, you can use makeup... the blemish concealer stuff.|||Believe it or not. Tooth paste (paste not gel) or TEA TREE or Eucalyptus OIL work to dry up the acne. Instead of moisturizong at night (yes, even if you are a guy- try neosporin or other antibacterial ointment over the areas- it will help it moisturize and then fight bacteria. You can also use over the counter scar cream (mederma) or Oil of Olay/Ponds, etc lightening cream to lighten the scars and make an even complexion. A dematologist once told me that the scars from acne can be so deep that they are hard to get rid of...but I have done the above and it has helped.....A LOT!
p.s. when using toothpaste to wash face keep eyes closed and let toothpaste sit- it will burn some..hang in there for about a minute. you can also dab toothpaste on acne while your face is dry and let it sit overnight.|||You should go to a dermatologist. My friend uses retin-a you can only buy it with a prescription.|||For scar removal - you may talk to your MD and check out Retin-A or Differin. These will increase the rate of cellular turnover in your skin.
Also of imporatance is chemical exfoliation.
There are some great products out there:
TCA peel - great results in short time. I am including the best buys -- as referred from a great board:

TCA Skin Peel: Cost Effective Way to treat Acne|||Personal experience, Retina-A Micro gel works great with the combination of an oral medication called Adoxa. Go to a dermatologist, it was the best thing to do. Do not wait, you will only make it worse.|||Acne sucks, here%26#039;s the link to the product I%26#039;m currently using. It%26#039;s working wonders, I%26#039;m almost acne-free at last!|||Using an over-the-counter product such as benzoyl peroxide can dry out acne. Benzoyl peroxide should be apply once a day or every other day to avoid redness and excessive drying. This will make tthe acne vanish faster and is preventative as well. Something all teenagers should do is wash your face two to three times a day. You should never go to sleep without thoroughly washing your face using a mild face wash.|||Put egg on your face it worked on my cousin who had terrible acne.
do not put tooth paste or green tea, that is so stupid although I never gotten a zit in my life i heard form a lot of my friends that tooth paste and tea and proactive do not work. But hey if you do not want to spend a lot of money i suggest you apply the yellow thing of the egg before you go to sleep leave it on for 60 seconds then wash it off oh yeah do this 4 at least a week and you%26#039;re guaranteed to see results
best of luck|||stop using bezoyl perozide, it will most likely cause scars.
Switch to Salicic Acid instead.
Somethings you can to do remove the scars are use Apple cider vinegar as a tones 2-3 times a day. I have been using it for 2 weeks and I see great improvement.
Also rub aloe vera on the scars and vitamin E.
Use the capsules and just apply daily.
Also check out acne.org, they have a whole board where they talk about acne scars.|||I agree with Edah. I%26#039;ve been using organic apple cider viniger in the evening as a toner and using hydrogen peroxide in the morning and it has helped reduce my acne and has lightened my scars.|||You need to first understand how acne works. There is no cure for acne, not even prescription drugs. You can help control it by keeping your pours clean, but over washing your face or using stripping it with alcohol, can also make blemishes worse.
Acne is caused by a combination of things, such as: hormones, bacteria, over abundance of oil, and clogged skin pours, not by how often you wash your face, or the foods that you eat.
Foods rarely affect acne, but if you find certain foods that you eat consistently make you break out, then you should avoid them. Foods with high lodine content, such as shellfish or seaweed, may cause flare ups.
If you are not going to use any type of brand of acne topical treatments, then do yourself a favor and eat healthy with plenty of H20 - water!
By the way, my son uses ProActiv and when he first started using it, his acne did get worse, but after a few weeks it started to improve. Good luck!|||i use rubbing alcohol to keep it under control or benzoyl peroxide if i am broken out|||Get a deep chemical peel. It will take off several layers of skin. Don%26#039;t do it yourself, go to a plastic surgeon. It hurts like a mother for about 5 minutes while the chemicals are on your face, but its ok after that. Then you go home apply strong moisturizers all day long, everyday, for about a week. You probably shouldnt plan on going out in public during the week that your skin heals. It worked wonders for me and I%26#039;ve tried everything else thats been mentioned so far. Depending on the severity of your scars, you may have to get more than one peel.|||Harmony Harvest Certifidd organic seaweed facial treatment.
21 old girl who had bad acne and scars since baby had been use this treatment to clear all.
Because this treatment contain natural fresh zinc to heal and clear scars.|||Vitamin A - you can get a prescription cream called retin-a that you actually put on your skin. It clears acne and if used regularly for a period of months it will give you brighter, tighter thicker skin. It will reduce fine lines and wrinkles and reduce the pores on your face and help minimize the appearance of scars - I know I use it.
