Is head and shoulder actuall good for getting rid of acne?

Question

Ive been reading around the net that head and shoulders gets rid of bacne for alot of people. I was wondering if this is true, and if their are any side affects like causing more break outs (like proactive did for me).

Acne medicine makes me break out more people...

Answer 1

Is your question " does Head and Shoulders shampoo help with acne on your back"? A dermatologist told my son this when he was a teenager and it worked. No side affects. The oil in your hair causes the acne. If in doubt, ask a dermatologist.

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.

Use these 3 tricks to get rid of acne fast.... Trick 1 - Keep your face clean. This is a daily routine that should be enforced strictly, especially at night. Remember to wash your face with a mild soap after every 3 to 4 hour period and pat dry. This will remove all excess oil and bacteria from your skin. Remove all make-up before retiring at night or immediately after returning home and use an approved cleanser to clean and open all pores. This will prevent acne from coming near your body in the first place and help subdue the existing ones. Trick 2 - Use the right medication. It does not matter whether you use an over-the-counter cream or a home-made concoction as long as your skin does not react to it adversely and the product does its job. Hence you can try a cream containing benzoyl peroxide or even your toothpaste or baking soda to do the trick. Apply the cream or paste on your acne and wait for anything between 15 minutes to overnight depending on the concoction to do its job. Try to avoid popping any pimple or zit unless absolutely necessary. Trick 3 - Detoxify your body. Often, acne just indicates the trouble that your body is facing from within. Hence, a good diet with lots of water, avoidance of fried foods and foods made of refined flour will soon have your skin blooming like a fresh flower. Once you observe an attack of acne, check and modify your diet immediately for quick results.

Answer 5

I haven't heard that, but I would stick with a dermatologist, especially if you've tried other things and they've only made the acne worse.

I sought help from dermatologists for my acne problem, but always got side effects from the oral meds they gave me. So.....I opted for laser treatments, and I have found my cure!! Plus, NO side effects!!

Answer 6

I'd stick with the real products intended for helping with acne.
