Really, really bad acne problem. What now?
I've had this acne problem on my face ever since I was 13. I am now 20. I've just about tried everything under the sun. Dermatologists, prescriptions such as benzoyl peroxide, tazorac, minocycline; I've tried lights, home remedies, toothpaste, zinc cream, tea tree oil, honey, salicylic acid, washing face 2-3 times daily... etc. All of these treatments help for a little while, but then the breakouts come back. It is so frustrating that sometimes I just want to cry. I'm tired of wearing makeup to hide them. Personally I think its make it worse, so I try to go as long as I can without wearing it. But I have so many scars. The worst part of my face is my chin. I can't remember the last time I had a clear chin. Right now it feel swollen.
Is there anyone here that's faced this same problem? Is there any hope?

I know that I’m gonna get a lot of thumbs down for my answer. But trust me this is not a joke. Acne are caused due to hormonal imbalance in the body, these hormones are testosterone in males, The level of these hormones increases in the body if you masturbate a lot or exercise a lot and even if you engage in a lot of sexual activity. If you are masturbating a lot, better stop it. If you are masturbating a lot your skin will become very oily, and if you go out in the sun with an oily skin you will start getting a lot of acne, so avoid going out in the sun a lot.
I want to tell you my real experience, please trust me on this. I was at home for two months for summer vacation even I used to engage in a lot of masturbation, But i never went out in the sun, I used to be at home whole day. But one thing I noticed is that whatever acne I had on my face were all gone, But when my vacation got over I was back to college and the everyday travelling out and exposing my skin to the sun I started getting a whole lot of Acne. Try it yourself if you don’t trust me, Be at home for at least a month and don’t get out of the house. You will see the difference for yourself.

Im goign through the same thing as you right now
im 15 though.
I went to the doctor and im on the 6th prescribed medicine..
ask him to come up with somthing that a pharmicist can specially make for you.
If they ask if you want to talk doxycycline, dont. it makes it worse.
Im allergic to benzoyl peroxide ( main ingrediant in acne meds) so i know how you feel.
Good luck though!

TOOTHPASTE. I know it may sound weird, but toothpaste really works on almost all skin problems. Just put a pea-size bit on your finger and use it on your face the same way you’d use a facial mask. When it starts to burn, wash it off with cold water. At first, you may need to do it once or twice a week. After a while though, it can be once a month or even less.
~I know how stressing it can be. Hope this helps!!~

I’ve been in that situation and there is really nothing you can do about it. There are things you can do to try to reduce the blemishes and get rid of acne/pimples temporarily but you will always be finding yourself cleaning your face or your body depending on where it’s at.
I mean of course your acne should go away eventually but for some this is the case their whole life.
I’m 29 years old and have been suffering from these little pests since I was a teenager. I tried all sorts of face washes from the local grocery store and what not, but nothing seemed to work. If anything it would just make my skin dry and itchy.
Literally the best acne face wash I’ve ever used has been this stuff called clearpores. It has got rid of the acne to quickest and has been a success ever since I got it. It’s unique cause of it’s herbal supplement you take a long with it that helps your skin from the inside out. I saved money on it at skincleansingsystem.com at the time which was helpful.
You should really look into this stuff and if you can to assure the best results, get the 3 month supply because if it doesn’t work it will still save you butt on the return policy.
Well good luck and best wishes.
