Stop picking at your face!!!!

There is ProActiv but is expensive; I used it twice at different times, but stopped. They have scar remedies. There are many brands coming out with things over the counter (OTC-Neutrogena, Loreal.)
I discovered Acne Free brand. The cleanser/toner/acne killer is great. I have had better, faster results with that than with ProActive. After you do these 3 steps you (can) apply cologate paste, not gel, tooothpaste or your dry breakouts. If paste makes you feel weird, use a type of mask (Neutrogena makes a good one that is called Clear Pore) that you on the break out or flare ups overnite while you sleep.

If you miss several nites or have more stress a flare-up may occur. So cleanness is important.

They also make a product for scars. I get the product at the local drugstore, Walgreens or CVS. It will take time, but the results are worth it. Good Luck.

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.

Horseradish is noted as a skin treatment, to remove spots and blemishes from the skin. Use 4 ounces freshly-grated horseradish, 1 quart buttermilk (dairy products used externally are okay), and 4 ounces glycerine. Place all in a half-gallon jar and shake well. Let stand overnight in a cool place. Shake well again and strain through a fine strainer. Bottle and keep cold, in the fridge. Then at night wash the areas on your face you want to treat, such as spots, discolorations, freckles, blackheads, scuff, or any skin blemish. Rub the horseradish lotion into the desired spot until the skin tingles with warmth. Wipe of the surplus and go to bed. This will stimulate the skin and bleach out unwanted discolorations. It is superior to any skin product on the market, according to Dr. Shook.

Dermabrasion or laser treatments seem to be the most effective. Both are pricey but dermabrasion is usually more reasonable for people and you don't have to have an M.D. do it. Laser can be very expensive and is usually done by a Dermatologist or Cosmotologist. To avoid scaring...do NOT pick or squeeze - EVER!
