An individual's face is very delicate and each person requires a different type of acne treatment. The most popular treatments are benzoyl peroxide based or salicylic acid based. To know which one is best for you, you MUST visit a dermatologist. My experience has been that benzoyl peroxide takes care of the scars and the pimples, but again, that was just MY experience, maybe something else will work for you.

The #1 medicine that really work for pimples for everyone is Accutane, but it has side effects for some people. I haven't try it because my doctor wouldn't prescribe it to me since i don't have severe acne problems. I have seen my friends who had severe acne and their faces clear up very well. Another product that i would recommend is Healthy Formula by VitaMedica.com. It is a dietary supplement and has vitamin A and it does help to get healthier skin. As fas for whittening your face, there are a lot of products at the Asian store (Shishedo might have it) for that purpose because Asian women like to get white face. Another product I believe Origins has something like it, not sure though.

The best and fasted thing I've ever used is ANTIPERSPIRANT. Yes, that's right, the stuff you put under your arms to prevent sweating. It contains a powerful drying agent which will dry up the excess oil in your skin. Incidentally, it is the same ingredient they use in some commercial anti-acne medication, but it's not so expensive. You never get pimples under your arms, do you?
As for a white face; if you don't have one, be thankful. We white-faces age faster. The only thing I can suggest is: stay out of the sun.

Eliminating pimples has been the goal of acne treatment. Acne is pustular eruptions, localized abscessed formation and local inflammatory conditions of the dermis and epidermis skin layers. Endogenous hormones (mainly androgens), which are present in unusually high concentrations in the blood during adolescence and puberty give rise to an excessive production of sebum (or oil). The condition may worsen by a simultaneous increase in the rate of keratin in the skin's outer layer that causes skin cell death. As the outer layer cells proliferate, they can form an occlusive plug or comedone which coupled with the increased production of the sebum, represents an ideal medium for the proliferation of the skin resident anaerobic bacterium, P. acnes . Many of the over-the-counter acne medications on the market today rely on similar chemical-based keratolytic agents (substances that act to unclog pores) such as benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. Benzoyl peroxide, resorcinol, salicylic acid, and sulfur are the most common topical OTC medicines used to treat acne. Each can be purchased over the counter, and each works differently. Benzoyl peroxide is best at killing bacteria and may reduce oil production. Resorcinol, salicylic acid, and sulfur help break down blackheads and whiteheads. Salicylic acid also helps cut down the shedding of cells lining the follicles of the oil glands. Topical OTC medications are available in many forms, such as gel, lotion, cream, soap, or pad. Patients must keep in mind that it can take 8 weeks or more before they notice their skin looks and feels better.
There are problems with over the counter acne medications. In some patients, OTC acne medicines may cause side effects such as skin irritation, burning, or redness. Benzoyl peroxide can cause skin irritation and drying. Salicylic acid is also an irritant and can cause erythema and peeling. When properly used, these products may contribute to a hygiene regimen that will reduce the incidence and severity of acne in some individuals; however, over-the-counter acne medications do little to impact the blemishes that inevitably occur. The problems with traditional at home treatment of acne has led many people to seek prescription medicatio

I dont know the #1 med for acne, but let me tell you....my son has been struggling with his skin this yr and its getting worse. Well...I took the ppls advice on here to try toothpaste...and BOY did it work wonders. I also tried it the other night and it got rid of this huge bump I had that I was getting nowhere with.
My son has blackheads on his nose as well as acne in spots. It even made the blackheads dissappear overnight. I was amazed this morning. It REALLY works. Try it, but put it on at night and leave it on till morning.

Proactiv Solution works great for all skin types even if you have oily skin.
If you have oily skin as well most of the over the counter stuff dont work. You can see your doctor and have them perscribe you something if you like.
