I really need to have my face cleard up. Well, technically I just REALLY want my face cleared up. I've tried the clearasil post acne mark clearer upper and obviously that didn't work (tear) so now I'm here, and really really really need help clearing up these marks! I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me, I'm in desperate need of it. THANKYOU!

Get a presciption for Retin-A. The stuff works wonders. Cleared up my marks a lot. I had terrible acne. I still have a few bumps occasionally, but for the most part, my skin is pretty clear.

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.
In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.
Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.
In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.
If you would like to learn how to treat your acne permanently and regain your health and wellbeing, without drugs, without typical acne treatments, and without any side effects, then this will be the most important letter you will ever read.

The toothpaste did clear a pimple for me. The pimple was small though, but it stopped it from growing and made it go away. It didn't leave me a scar. Try: Neutrogena Rapid Clear Acne Eliminating Gel This worked for me as well!

Try Proactiv to clear up acne. The mask which comes along with it which is sulfur rich is great to put on for spot treatment (overnight). For the scars, apply Vitamin E (more than 400 IU) dedicatedly every night before you sleep. Also try Estee Lauder Micro-D cleanser with Skin Refinishing Lotion twice a week. (Its fantastic and u can see results almost immediately!!)

Treatments Of Acne Scars
Acne scars leave their mark not only on the skin but also on the persons' psyche. With rapid developments in dermatology, treating acne scars is becoming easier. Consult your dermatologist about the best treatment for your acne scars. The choice will depend upon your medical history, the type of scar and the treatments available for that type of scarring. Some treatments are cheaper but may not give the best results. The choice therefore also depends on your budget and the kind of results you desire. Read below for the kinds of treatments available for acne scars.
Dermabrasion:
This is considered one of the most effective treatments for acne scars. In this procedure, the doctor uses a local anesthetic or freezes the skin and then uses a high-speed rotary abrader to remove unwanted surface skin. As the skin heals, it shows a brighter appearance. This procedure may remove superficial scars totally and reduce deeper scars.
Chemical Peeling:
Depending on the scar, the doctor applies a mild chemical peel on the affected skin. This slowly peels away the old skin and fresh skin surfaces. Mild scars can be treated with chemical peels.
Laser Therapy:
Different lasers are used by the doctors to give a new shape to the scarred skin by recontouring the scars. The high burst of laser may make the skin red for some time.
Soft Tissue Filling:
Collagen, which may be bovine in source or the patients' own, may be injected below the scar to lift the skin and give it a smooth appearance. As the injected collagen gets absorbed in the body over a period, further treatments may be needed after about six months. Similarly fat may be injected below deep scars for giving a skin lift. Similar to collagen filling, fat injections may need to be repeated after some months. Your doctor will advise you about that.
Skin Surgery:
Skin may have to be surgically corrected with grafting or other procedures to remove some scars.
Microdermabrasion:
In this procedure. very tiny aluminum oxide crystals are passed through a vacuum tube to scrape the surface of the skin. This procedure may have to be repeated many times. It gives a fresh look to the skin by scraping. Very mild scarring can be treated with microdermabrasion.
Note:
For people who have the tendency to form keloids, no surgical method can be used. If one develops keloid with acne injury, more keloids will be formed by further surgery. Steroid injections may be used to treat keloids. In some cases, topical retinoic acid is applied directly on the keloids.

Loreal Adult Peel and Mark Kay Microdermobrasion worked wonders for me. You are supposed to use them both twice awwk so I use the Peel on Thursday night and SUnday morning. I use the Mary Kay on Saturday night and Tueaday night. After 6 weeks all my marks were gone!

You can get facial....Try Proactive and CeraVe. The two products work well. I had the same problem at once. You must nuture your skin. Do NOT pick or touch. The bacteria from your hands gets on you face and infects it even worse. You have to wash in the am when you wake up and in the pm when you go to sleep. ALWAYS!!!
