Is there any over the counter products that I can use that will treat my body acne?
I have acne on both my chest and back and want to get rid of it. Are there any over the counter products that i can use to cleanse away this body acne.
"I dont plan on going to a dermotologist or getting pro-active because my case is not extremely bad...just want something quick and over the counter."
How can you clear acne on your back and chest?
I went to the dermotologist because it was getting bad on my face. I have taken two different acne pills and a prescription body wash plus many over the counter products. The pills work great... on my face. My back and chest look horrible! I can't wear the shirts I want because unless the collar comes up to my neck, all you see is red pimples.
Not attractive. Is there any way to clear it up? Why does my back and chest stay so broken out when my face is controlled by the medicine?
I am using the Neutrogena Body Wash. And I use Tresemme Conditioner. I try to always wash my back and chest after I use the conditioner though so it doesn't clog my pores.
Will this routine clear up my skin?
I'm a 15 year old girl with combination oily/dry skin and pretty severe acne. Will doing this clear me up in a few weeks?
Morning- Clean and Clear's morning burst shine control facial cleanser and oil free moisturizer
When I get home from school-Wash off make up with moistruizing cleanser
Before bed-Wash face with Aveeno's exfoliating skin brightening cleanser and apply differn (topical prescribed by dermotologist)
Once a week-Peel off facial mask
If I do this, wear less make up, pull back my bangs at night and drink lots of water will my skin clear up within 3 weeks?
any other ideas?
thanks :)
How can I get rid of my acne on my chin?
I'm really desperate. I've tried a lot. I'm a senior in high school and my whole high school career I've had acne on my chin. It's never-ending, meaning it never goes away. No matter what I do.. it's useless. It acts like it's going to go away and then it worsens, like it is right now. This is the worst it has ever been. It has been "pussing" a lot today and it hurts really bad right now. I looked on the internet for "natural acne remedies" and I saw something about mixing oats with water and making it into a paste. I have been putting that on my chin and other spots on my face for like a week now and it hasn't help worth shit. I put it on twice a day. It doesn't show any signs of going away. I asked my mom to take me to the dermotologist but she said: "It's not even that bad. Your sister had way worse". My sister had MORE acne, mine is more severe. Plus, she wore foundation so you couldn't see it. When I first started getting it on my chin I tried to wear foundation and it didn't cover it worth shit either. I just want to feel free again with my skin because right now I just want to crawl into a shell and hide. Please help.
I wash my face twice a day and use lotion twice a day.
I am 35 and has terrible acne, blackheads and holes developing on my face what can I use or do to stop this.?
My face was ok until the last 4-5 years, when my face felt rough to the touch. It seems as if grease got trapped under the skin. whenever I squeeze them some white stuff would come out and then the area would become tender, and a large swelling would develop in the location. I am terrible conscious about my face and the way it looks and feel. I have been to the dermotologist and each time I would be prescribed various medication that just seem to work for about a week while others only make the situation worst. I really would like to know what I can do or buy over the counter on my own to help my situation. I am very very frustrated. Help!

Acne on forehead only?
I'm 14 years old and started my period last week of october. Ever since it started tiny zits appeared between my eyebrows and then my nose got oily and greasy.
Eventually the zits appearing became so HUGE with white thingies inside!!!!(EEK!). My mom told me to use Murad Clarifying Toner and Murad Acne Spot Treatment. The acne spot treatment worked for a month and then after that it slowly diminished my zits---so slow that it took 1 week to remove a tiny zit (how about a huge one?).
Then, my forehead started to get oily and greasy. My mom said I have combination skin. When my forehead started to get oily, pimples started to appear...I remembered the first two.....(huge bumps that was painful followed by white thingies.....). I now have a lot of acne scars between my eyebrows and a few in my forehead. I have no bangs.
My mom brought me to her friend who's a dermotologist and told me to use Duac and to not use any Murad products for me. It worked for only a month, again, then the process slowed down.
My T-Zone now is oh so oily that I used oil control powders but after 3 hours its oily again.
Past Products I used:
Johnson's Gentle Cleansing Wash for Sensitive Skin
Murad Clarifying Toner
Murad Acne Spot Treatment
Murad Moisturizer
Neutrogena SPF 15 Moisturizer for Combo Skin
And this type of acne treatment my mom told me to use rarely (when only my zits are big) because it can affect my growth...
Products Currently using:
Clean and Clear Makeup Dissolving Cleanser
Clean and Clear Soft SPF 15 Day Moisturizer
Duac
Mineral Makeup (Everyday Minerals) for my T-Zone only
I wash my face 2 times a day--when I wake up and before going to bed.
No bangs.
Now I'm breaking out seriously on my forehead. The worst yet. A lot of scars...I don't even pick on them.
Only a few zits appearing between eyebrows.
Start to have on chin and below cheeks but not serious and doesn't leave scars. Eventually disappears.
Could you all please help me?
I would definitely appreciate it.
Sorry for the long extra info! :D
