Answer 2

Do you live in the South? Sounds like Texas or maybe another border state to Mexico. The reason I say that is after carefully reading your comment section it seems that it may very well be the water.
Ever heard, "don't drink the water in Mexico"?

Border states to Mexico are just a couple a hundred miles from the undrinkable water that can make a person violently ill.

I'm sure you've heard the saying, "crap runs downhill". The Colorado River and the Great Mississippi do not run North!!

Many people who live in border states experience this problem.

The quality of the water depends on where you live, even in Northern states sometimes the water is "swampy".

I have travelled the US extensively. The water quality in California is very high as are their standards. In Arkansas the water is so bad in some places, for instance Little Rock, that if
a person washes their clothes they smell worse from the water than they did before.

Normally zits from water are large and resemble a cyst. They can be treated easily by easing out the infection, followed by a dab of peroxide. Wash with soap and bottled water and dab with peroxide twice or three times a day.

Glad you were able to heal in Egypt and enjoy yourself. We get away to California and Hawaii a couple of times a year just to experience the water.

Have a great weekend!

Hello,

Homemade Acne Treatment
Washing the face a couple of times a day helps but for added cleanliness try a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol before bed. Not only does alcohol help dry the skin of oil but it also kills bacteria-causing germs. And since bacteria is at the heart of acne and blemishes it's important to keep skin free of it's dangers.

Using alcohol more frequently than once daily can cause skin to peel or become irritated. Alcohol is especially helpful when the effects of a pimple are first being felt. Often, the skin around the area of a pimple-to-be can begin to sting or feel sore when rubbed. Upon first noticing this condition douse the area (and only this area) with alcohol three times daily.

Those who have really oily skin have particular complexion problems which often result in blackheads. Oatmeal is one way to treat oily skin and it's inexpensive. Oatmeal is very dry and absorbs oil from the skin. Make a thick paste from oatmeal and water then apply to the face in the morning and evening. Allow the paste to stay on face for 10 to 20 minutes before rinsing with cool water.

Another effective facial mask for those with oily skin is made from honey and apples. After grating the apple into a fine pulp mix in four tablespoons of honey and apply to face for ten minutes. Or beat an egg white until stiff and add a few drops of witch hazel and a few drops of lemon juice. Spread the mixture over the face and leave for fifteen minutes. Rinse well with barely warm water.

Tomatoes work wonders for oily skin as well. After mashing a ripe tomato drain the juice on paper towels for a few minutes. Now take the tomato pieces and pat them onto the face, while lying back, and leave for fifteen to twenty minutes. Rinse with warm water. Do this treatment once daily, preferably in the morning.

Answer 4

Laser surgery has been in use for some time to reduce the scars left behind by acne, but research is now being done on lasers for prevention of acne formation itself. The laser is used to produce one of the following effects:

to burn away the follicle sac from which the hair grows
to burn away the sebaceous gland which produces the oil
to induce formation of oxygen in the bacteria, killing them
Since lasers and intense pulsed light sources cause thermal damage to the skin there are concerns that laser or intense pulsed light treatments for acne will induce hyperpigmented macules (spots) or cause long term dryness of the skin. As of 2005, this is still mostly at the stage of medical research rather than established treatment.

Because acne appears to have a significant hereditary link, there is some expectation that cheap whole-genome DNA sequencing may help isolate the body mechanisms involved in acne more precisely, possibly leading to a more satisfactory treatment. (Crudely put, take the DNA of large samples of people with significant acne and of people without, and let a computer search for statistically strong differences in genes between the two groups). However, as of 2005 DNA sequencing is not yet cheap and all this may still be decades off. It is also possible that gene therapy could be used to alter the skin's DNA.

Answer 5

it's the environment - most likely more cleaner air there. i used to work at a spa.

you have to get a really good deep cleanser. you may need to get a facial (eek i know - but it's more common then you think for guys to go in for spa treatments now). if the technician is certified they can do a skin analysis and tell you what to do to clear it up. most likely you need a good deep cleanser and exfoliate your skin (gently) so you don't irritate your skin. stay away from steam or hot water. if your stressed your face will break out - so relax. if your face is red - it's irritated. don't pick at it. and try not to touch your face to much to keep from spread of infection. good luck.
*i recommend neutrogena products they are a little pricey but good for this.

take care.
Good luck,

Acne or pimples is due to hormonal changes ,bad diet and unhealthy skin care habits .There are many cheap and effective home remedies for acne. Tomato slices, turmeric, papaya juices and home made packs will treat existing pimples and prevent further problems. More remedies at the link provided.

Answer 7

I believe the best thing to use is soap and water actually. Rinse off your face then apply soap. That is the best way to get rid of them. If you use proactive and other products, your face will dry up.

Answer 8

Try doxycycline or minocycline (acne pills). They work 10 times better than creams and face washes.

If that doesn't work, then take accutane, but that's expensive.

Answer 9

Go to a Dr of Dermatology. Get Metrocream. It works. You may have Roasha.

Go Now! .... to avoid scaring.

Good luck.
