Any tips for acne breakouts on your body?
I am a 20yr old Black female w/ oily/ acne-prone skin. My face has cleared up over the past year (I've been using oil of olay products, and they worked on my skin). My back, shoulders, chest, and breast get breakouts. They will clear if I treat them how I treat my face, but its harder to do in my opinion. Is there a product I should try or some diet I should follow?

Wash with a loofah, helps to exfoliate the skin and eventually clears the breakouts

you obviously have oily skin…try not to eat anything greasy.. and then maybe you should use like a neutragena body wash.

ProActiv worked great for me and I get acne in all kinds of places, too. ProActiv took care of my problem and quickly. Low fat diet helped, too, but ProActiv will dry the really big ones up in a couple of days, as opposed to a week or so! Quite a miracle for me!

go to an acne skincare and not a dermatologist. at an acne skincare, they help rejuvenate and even out your skin tones, get rid of acne permanently, and doesn’t leave any scars on your face or use alcohol. dermatologist just makes your face look worse by leaving scars behind and using alcohol.

It is important to use skin friendly products and not pinch the pustules so that there are no scars formed. A good soap like Neutrogena or Cetaphil is recommended. Mild oil free skin creams should only be used . More remedies at http://tinyurl.com/ypzvgd

usually the formulas for treating body acne are somewhat different in terms of composition.

Phisoderm body wash- it contains salicylic acid. Treats current breakouts & prevents future one. Good news is it’s cheap (about $4) and can be found at Walmart and Walgreens. I’ve heard this one recommended by doctors a lot and patients have reported good results.
