How do I solve my serious Acne problems?

I am a 19 year old guy and I having a serious acne problem. And they have been going on for few years now. I tried lots of acne clearing solutions etc but they only go away for a short while and come back a few weeks later.

Also they leave behind dark spots which I want to get rid off. Can anyone please give me some permanent solution for acne treatment? Also how do I get rid of the marks forever?

How effected is 'Exposed Acne Treatment'? What are the advantages/disadvantages?

I have not so nice skin, haha. It's not terrible but it tends to be quite dry, my blackheads seem to be never ending.. I basically have the average teenagers acne problem :(
I've tried Proactiv, it helped a bit, but it still gave me random breakouts, and didn't improve the look of my skin much.. plus I had a reaction to the 3rd step of it :S .. so please don't suggest it! haha

Ive tried and known about things like the honey facial mask and lemon juice in water mix, egg yolk, patato peels, stuff like that. BUT i dont know in exactly what combination to use these treatments in and how exactly to apply them.

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?

What is the best way to treat blackheads?

Really my only acne problem is an occasional spot on my chin, but I have a lot of blackheads on my nose and chin and I am sick of them. They make me feel like my skin is horrible. I have dry sensitive skin so what do you recommend for them? A face wash? A Cream? A face mask? Anything that may really help. I've tried pore strips and yes they pull stuff out but not a lot and I feel like they just pull off skin.

Acne is ruining my life ! :(?

Hello chaps,

I dident want to open this topic, but I just cant take it anymore. I got this stupid acne who are really making me lose my confidence, sometimes I dont want to go out because Im ashamed cuz I have this little anoying acnes, Im obsesed with them, sometimes I look myself at the mirror every 5 minutes to see how my face is and if there is a new acne growing in my bloody face !

I visited the dermatologist, he gave me a treatment it worked ok, the acne was reduced I admit but I stil have acne .. its just that I cant take it anymore, I wash my face daily, drink a lot of water etc... but the acne are not going of..

In my life I had a looot of problems, and I managed to live with them but I just cant take it anymore with these ACNES ! (N)

My freinds really love me, but I dont feel confortable with myself anymore cuz of this stupid acne problem, what can I do to remove them ? or at least to get my confidenc again :S. ?

Im gonna go at the beach after 2 weeks, will the sun remove the scars from ACNE, will it make it better ? or maybe not.

Have a nice time.
