Acne treatment?

Question

Hi Im currently using a treatment that helps with acne scarring but still have some spots to treat and I bought something to help with that do you think I should put it on or after the scar cream?

Also should I still be toning because when I tone it makes it hard for the cream to sink in maybe I need to leave it to dry completly?

Answer 1

FORGET ALL THE CREAMS LOTIONS ECT. ACNE IS CAUSED MAINLY FROM STRESS AND YOU WILL CAUSE MORE ACNE BY WORRING ABOUT ,HOW TO USE THESES CREAMS ECT, JUST USE EVENING PRIMROSE OIL CAPSULS, FOUND IN ANY GOOD HEALTHSHOP AND YOUR SKIN WILL BE HEALED UP IN NO TIME.

Answer 2

Acne can get worse if you keep using cleanser and stuff all the time. It dries out the skin, so the skin works extra hard to produce more oils, which is the last thing you want cos thats what causes the acne in the first place. Just try a pH balanced soap, like Dove, and maybe a bit of moisturiser. Let the moisturiser soak in and then put your stuff on for the scarring. Hope this helps!!!

Well, first up take Antibiotics : Doxycycline 100Mg * 3 times a day just for 2 days .
After this, Option 1:
If you can get an Antibiotic Cream (Erythromycin Creme ,apply it over the acne) .
Option 2:
Use a Retinoid based Cream (Retin-A)
Option 3:
Use a Hydrophase Cream (Brevoxyl)

I am not sure whether you get them over the counter in the USA.
But where i live, all this is over the counter.

although this doesn't answer you question:
if you use a baking soda to watch you're face, it will make you face feel better and take away the gunk on skin. when acne pops up put toothpaste on the area, it makes it dry quickly and avoids additional scaring
