Skin Conditions - March 2007

I have had acne for years (sine 3rd grade to be exact) I've gone to dermatologists, given up chocolate and sodas, stopped eating greasy food, exercised, took vitamins, used proactive and proactive extra strength. Used Clinique and Este Lauder...I take really good care of my skin. I don't tan. I don't touch it...I wash it 2X a day. Use Oil free moisturizers...I have horrible breakout all over my face...Can anyone tell me what worked for their severe acne?

She's had it for a couple of months now. However none of the doctors we went to though it was ringworm. We finally went to a dermatologist and after the 2nd visit he diagnosed it. Now considering that I've made physical contact with my wife and my daughter has made contact as well. I would of thought what she had has spread to me and my daugther as well. But we didnt' get anything. Is ringworm a sign of a weak immune system?

I had a beauty mark which I scratched and then it turned so I put ie on it but the brown color like fell off like a scab so now, a day later, it's like this little hole and I have been putting Mederma and Hydrogen Peroxide water tingy that comes in thoses brown bottles. I am hoping that the water will heal the cut type thing and the Mederma will prevent it from scaring. These are the questions: If I keep doing this will it heal? If so, how long? when will te redness go away? Will there be a scar? How can I prevent anything bad from happening and an personal tips or something would be helpful. Please and thank you and don't waste my time and just give me useful answers. Thank you. (BTW I am not scratching it anymore(FYI))

Hi,
I am 35 years old and my acne has been at it's worse than ever before. I eat fruits and vegetables and drink plenty of water. I am healthy. I just have oily skin. I am trying to decide which of the lesser of two evils to go with.....Salicylic Acid or Benzoyl Peroxide? What is the difference between the two and which one is more effective? Is it possible to get a moisturizer with SPF sunscreen in either one ? I have it all: blackheads, cystic acne and dent pockets that my blackheads have created that I can't seem to get rid of. Thanks everyone for your help!!!

I'm not talking about avoiding getting sunburnt in the first place. that much is obvious. I'm talking about AFTER sunburn has taken place. Peeling... sun damage drying out the skin? would liberal applications of after sun cream/other cream help?
