Try to prevent acne and treat it as soon as it appears.

Tips:

1. Don't try to squeeze out blackheads or whiteheads, as that may lead to further infection. Picking up acne at second stage may lead to scarring. your doctor will remove the comedones with sterile instruments if it is required.

2. Some people believe that excessive sweat or dirt can cause acne. In blackheads what we see as black is not dirt, but oxidized sebum. Excessive cleaning of skin will not cure acne, but may aggravate the condition. Gently clean your face twice a day with mild soap or cleansers formulated to care for acne and warm water. Pat dry, don't rub.

3. Noncomedogenic products are certified to not cause or aggravate acne. Use noncomedogenic cosmetics and skin care products.

4. Most of the acne treatments make the skin sensitive to sun. Talk to your doctor about that and protect yourself with sunscreen whenever you go out. Also adopt other methods to protect your skin from sun. Avoid tanning beds and lamps.

5. Use cosmetic treatments such as facials, only after consulting your doctor. Facials may aggravate your acne.

6. Avoid touching acne spots with your hands. It may worsen the condition. You should also avoid any hair coming on the forehead.

7. Use of more than prescribed dose of medication may put you in trouble. In your hurry to get rid of acne faster, do not overuse any medication.

8. Keep your face free of makeup as much as possible. Let the skin breathe fresh air. Also avoid using any oil or oil-rich product for your hair. Use oil-free hair care products after consulting your doctor.

Answer 2

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.

Answer 3

The best medicine out there is Accutane. I tried everything from Proactive to Differin Gel to no avail. Acne needs to be treated from the inside out. Accutane shrinks your sebaceous glands, thus reducing the amount of sebum on the skin. In 2 months, you start to see amazing results! I have been off of Accutane for over a year and a half and only get the occasional zit. It goes away in 3 or 4 days, rather than the month it took before! No more big, red pimples, just a small bump or two. It really does work and the side effects were a small price to pay for nice skin and loads of self confidence!

Answer 4

Panoxyl Bar soap in 5% or 10 % benzoil peroxide. You can find it at any drugstore. Wash your face morning and night only. It can be drying so use a non-comedegenic mositurizer. It does work and u will see your pimples drying up in a matter of a week. Also keep using the soap ewven when ir pimples are gone to prevent new ones coming back. Good luck.

Answer 5

I don't use any soap I just use warm water, and I get a tad bit of acne like twice like every 3 months. It may not be the same for you though, and I may just have gotten lucky I don' t know. Sorry if I didn't help.

Answer 6

Try a good unscented face wash and moisturizer, scneted could cause irritation. Sun exposure is also a cause of acne, so put on sunscreen. Never pop your acne, it leaves a scar. And try to keep away from dust. Hope this helps.

Answer 7

im also a teen and i found that washing with glycerin soap 3 times a day and then useing zinc oxide before bed really helped me. it cleared up my face in just 3 days

Answer 8

use Proactive and use as directed but if that doesn't work then use egg yolk cause it drys the face then use a face scrub to remove dirt then use proactive for best results and I hope it helped good luck:-)

Answer 9

when i was in my early 20's i still had acne. zinc tablets helped clear it up real quick when nothing else did, so it is worth a try.
