   I have the same issue as you do. Red spots and boils.

   For over the counter you could try:

   -Clear Pore Cleanser/Mask. It uses benzoyl peroxide just like Proactiv but is much cheaper (~$7.00) and can be used as either an on the spot treatment, a face mask as a preventative, or a cleanser/wash
   -Neutrogena Salicylic Acid Wash. It uses salicylic acid to clear out pores a sa preventative, lessen redness, and washes off makeup too which is great. (~$6.00)
   -Clearasil Salicylic Acid Pads. They work great for under makeup and is good for if you don’t like gooey on the spot treatments. (~$7.00)

   For home remedies you could try:

   -Toothpaste. Just dap a little on the pimples and leave it on for a few hours or over night depedning on how sensitive your skin is. Be sure to only get it on the pimple and not on the skin around it or else your skill will get really dry.
   -Crushed strawberries. They have salicylic acid in them so it works similar to the over the counter products. You could try making a combination of strawberries and toothpaste (sounds gross i know) or you could try it combined with Manuka honey (as described below)
   -Manuka honey. It’s sometimes hard to find in some stores but a health shop or a pharmacy for sure would have it if your grocery store doesn’t. Just apply to your affected areas from 30 minutes up to a few hours but be sure to wash it all off once you are done.

   If you are interested in seeing adermatologistt, you should ask about the following topical products:

   -Duac Gel. It is a combination of benzoyl peroxide and the antibiotic, clindamyacin. (Did not really do wonders for me but it did for other poeple) With my insurance it only cost me $10 for brand.
   -Epiduo Gel. It is a combination of benzoyl peroxide and the antibiotic, adapalene (often known as "differin") This really worked for me but I personally had a reaction to the differn which made me experience chest tightness similar to that of a small asthma attack. My friend was also on differin and she got asthma like symptoms too when she never has had them before. It only cost me $15 for brand.
   -Erythromycin Gel. It is a gel made of the antibiotic, erythromycin. This so far has been doing good for me. No side affects luckily. It only cost me $10 for brand. My pharmacy had a hard time finding it though because it’s not made much anymore

   I hope this helped you out :)
   By the way, you can use some of them at the same time. For ecxample, I currently use the Erythromycin gel, Clear Pore cleanser/mask, and Neutrogena Salicylic Acid wash. When my I break out really bad though, I include the home remedies like the Manuka honey

   Everyone faces the same problem when treating acne. When the healing takes place, acne redness develops. Sometimes, the redness could be the result of using acne medications or treatments.

   It is not a scar but a post-inflammatory change. It is difficult to hide the marks. This makes the acne marks more prominent even after healing. Depending on your body, the healing may take up to 12 months.

   If the lesions do not develop in the affected skin area, the red marks will disappear on its own. However, if the color does not change after a year, it may be a scar.

   With these problems in hand, you would want to get rid of acne redness as soon as possible, even overnight. In this article, we have found several solutions. Some of them can be found in your home. Therefore, you can save money. If you want a quick remedy, then you may need to get it from the health stores.

   I suggest you to go to dermatologist, sometimes stress can also play a role with acne or maybe its biological. I use to break out a lot but than my doctor put me on accutane. Not a lot of people like accutane but it works, it has a lot of side effects but my results came out great. Acne made me have low self esteem and just effected my social life. I would always wonder if someone was disgusted by seeing my face. You can also try products with benzoyl peroxide or maybe a facial/body wash that contains sialic acid.

   There are lots of home remedies, first of all, Drink lots of water and Avoid junk food. Secondly, try Tomato Honey mask
   Method:
   Smash the tomato into a pulpy, and then mix it with appropriate amount of honey into a paste. Evenly apply it to the face or hands for about 15 minutes, clean it with cool water. Use up to 1～2 times a week. This whitening mask can be used both on face and hands, especially has a good effect for acne skin; it can effectively remove the oiliness and prevent infection to make the skin white and smooth.

   Don’t touch your face, because our hands is the main reason spread bacteria and viruses. So try to wash our hand throughout the day.
