I completely understand your problem. I am the same way. I have tried proactive, I am not saying it doesn't work but it didn't for me it was a huge waste of money. I have also tried all the products in the store--Not joking, seriously ALL the products-- nothing really helped. Those alcohol pads got rid of the redness if I held them on the spot for atleast 5 minutes and then didn't touch it for and hour the red would disapear faster then normal but the stores had no fast or long answer. I gave in and went to the doctor. She prescribed a cream that I rub on my face like lotion before bed it helped tremendously. I can't remember the name but just go see your doctor they will know what will work...Good Luck

get your but over to a dermatologist! the benzole cream the prev. person wrote about is goo. just be aware, if you put it on before bed, it will stain your pillowcase and pj's so wear something you don't love to bed.
vitamin E is great for the skin so start taking. you can also get vitamin E in a bottle and apply directly to the scars.
the pill can help a little, if this one is not helping enough ask your doc for another brand.
never get a facial - worst think you can do to your skin.
if you have hard water at home, get a water softner system. Hard water clogs your pores. you'll know if you have hard water if it leaves spots on pots and pans and it's difficult to get a good lather with soap or shampoo. you can also buy a water testing kit at home depot by the water softner systems.
acne is usually hormonal though.
and don't over wash your face! once a day. that's it!
drink at least 8 glasses of water a day!!

Where do you get your acne? If it is mostly along your chin and jawline, you could have a hormonal problem causing your acne. Go to you Dr. if you do, because you may have PCOS which causes that kind of acne. If you have acne all over you can go to the derm and they can help with that. there are even laser treatments now and a device called ZENO. It kills the bacteria in the zit and clears it up with in hours.

Proactive is a good solution for adult acne ...
the scxarring is a different story though
scars taht arent too deep use mederma
scars that are...big pits.....try loreal or nutregena microdermabrasion products
for really deep scars professional micro dermabrasion 100 a pop
for pitting and blotches try professionqal dermabrasion 2500-5000.00

Try Proactiv. It's the only acne treatment that has ever worked for me. It'll probably take a couple weeks to see any results, but it's totally worth it.

a couple of spots isn't acne !!
spot treat with benzoyl peroxide 2.5% cream
wash with glycolic acid or salicylic acid facial washes twice a day.
Forget Proactive. It's all marketing and it doesnt work.
