Would birth control help my acne?
I would say I have moderate acne (Maybe mild) I break out very badly around that time of the month, would this be an indication that my acne is caused from hormonal imbalance? I have blackheads, whiteheads, & the occassional sore inflammed pimples under my skin when I'm on my period. I use to take Orthotrycyclin for pregnancy prevention, but I never really noticed improvement in my skin, would I need a stronger dosage?
Thanks.
Please please someone, anyone here used this for acne?!?!?!?!!?!?
Urgent question, please read!
I'm 18 now, have had terrible acne since the age of 14. Blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, massive pus-filled spots, nodular/cystic acne (where massive lumps thrust out from below the skin) ... you name it, i've had it
tho over the last year, i've begun to notice a slight improvement, though its only a matter of a week or so before i flare up and look unsightly :( :( :( :(
i went to my GP yesterday, he said 'whoa' then gave me a prescription of ZINERYT, this topical antibiotic liquid/cream ...anybody had this before, has it worked, how long?!?!?!?!?!
Can I use acne treatments to fight my blackheads/whiteheads and pimples?
I was thinking buying the Clean and Clear Acne control kit, and see if it helps with my blackheads/whiteheads and pimples. I used a lot of products, but none seemed to work.
what is this and what should i do?? i'm confused if this is an acne, pimple, blackhead, etc.?
at first it was like this: i sleep late everyday (till now) i have pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, and stuff on my face.. what i did to my blackheads, whiteheads, and pimples.. was forcing the dirt out of my pores, then later, i realized that i actually have to use a facial wash or something to take it out because everytime i take out a blackhead using force, the pores got bigger, and it eventually becomes a pimple or becomes worse.. time passed, and i realized that some of my pores have this yellowish solid thing inside of them.. and every time i take it out, i see that the pore where i took it from got bigger and got a wound.... what is it and what should i do about it? should i continue taking them off of my pores by force?
btw, what is the difference between an acne and a pimple?
and also, the only facial wash i have been using is rite aid which says it takes out dirt and oil from pores..
does clearasil daily acne control blackhead clearing scrub clear both face acne and body acne?
(Please read all of this theres many questions) The directions say to put it on face and shoulder that must mean it clears the face but what about the body? Also does it clear blackheads whiteheads and pimples? also how long does it take to start working? 1 last question, is there a better acne medication I could use?
