I have acne fairly bad I use ProActiv but it doesnt really help.I am 13 and shouldn't have to deal with this!!

Answer 1

hey sweetie. I am a licensed aesthetician and I work with acne all the time. get off pro active it doesn't help and keeps your skin the same. Find a salon and spa near you that sells Dermalogica. If your skin is really oily get the dermal clay cleanser if it is fairly oily get the anti-bac cleanser. Get the medicated clearing gel and use it at night. You can get the acne skit kit as well or the oily. try both but I would suggest that you get an express facial and they will reccomend the products you need. This product line really works. hope this helps

Answer 2

Nobody should have to deal with acne problems when they're are so many things out there now. ProActiv really didn't work for me either, so I went to the doctor and told him and he gave me some perscription lotions and a pill and they cleared my face right up. So my suggestion would be to talk to your doctor.

Answer 4

If your acne is really really bad, I know people who have used Accutane and it worked really well. You have to get it prescribed by a dermatologist. At first it really dries out your skin and lips, but you take it for a couple months and then you are supposed to be good without taking it anymore. My cousin had acne all over his face and was very self-conscious and shy b/c of it. He went on it and now his skin is very clear and it's so much better for him.

Answer 5

While it took little less than two months for me to really see a difference, my acne, blackheads and whole lot of other skin problems I had such as eczema had completely cleared! It was totally amazing...

Get Rid Of Acne Permanently?

Answer 6

Sure, you should! You're a teenager! ;)

Sorry, I'm kidding.

Seriously, have you talked to your parents about this? If your acne is so bad, they should take you to the dermatologist. There are lots of prescription meds that can be used. One of my students (I teach high school) was horribly broken out until his mom took him to the dermatologist, who prescribed him some kind of drug, and in a few weeks his skin was showing a marked improvement.

Talk to your parents!! Good luck!

Answer 7

Your right you shouldn't have to deal with it. The thing is that you will grow out of it. When you do you will have the prettiest face in your graduating class. Have your mom take you to the doctor and talk to him about what is best for you.

Answer 8

I'm trying this expensive treatment and it seems to be working ok...its called BORBA. You mix it with water and drink it. It tastes good and it is packed with vitamins. I also am using the BORBA acne soap.

Answer 9
