how to naturally get rid of acne scars fast?

For the last few months, ive been getting lazy about caring for my face and havent cared baout he large amount of acne ive had on my forehead. Ive recently bought products that have really worked to clear my acne up!

Ive been using
clean&clear morning burst skin brightening facial cleanser in the morning
any random simple drug store spot treatment
and clean&clear continuous control acne cleanser at night.

THIS HAS MADE MY SKIN CLEAR UP SOOOO MUCH IN ONE WEEK, AND MY SKIN IS SMOOTHER AND BRIGHTER.

Anyways, so now it seems like my main problem is no longer acne, but acne scarring.

Even though i barely have any acne on my forehead now, it still looks like I do because of the
scarring.

Any natural ways to get rid of these?

thank you

P.S. if you have oily skin as i do, i reccomend using the treatments i said above, to get less dull and acne filled skin!

Why do I have ugly skin and acne, but my sister doesnt?

I am 16 and had acne, breakouts, blackheads etc since I was 12. I am 16 now and it has made me SO self concious. Right now I have 3 pimples on my forehead, blackheads all over nose, and my chin and mouth area is all broke out :( they are red, flat noticeable pimples.

I use a face cleanser twice a day, and a moisturizer. I don't really wear makeup, sometimes Concealer but it doesn't cover well. I exfoliate a few times a week, and use a clay mask once a week.

My sister is almost 14 and has 98% clear skin. She rarely washes her face! She doesn't at night and only sometimes in the morning with just water. She doesn't use any products.

It makes me mad !

How to get rid of stubborn forehead acne!?

I'm pretty sure it started a little more than a year ago when i got bangs. my bangs are pretty long now but they still cover half of my forehead, I would pin them up to help my forehead but then all my acne will show so I never wear them that way in public, but I pin them up all the time when I'm home. I have tried numerous products on my face. Clearasil, neutrogina, department store brand, and many different forms of clean&clear. I bought a clean&clear acne kit with cleanser, spot treatment, and moisturizer and it has worked the best so far but still can't get rid of it all. Are there any proven methods you would suggest to me? It's winter and my skin gets dry during winter, but oily during summer.

Need Serious Help. Has Anyone Sought Professional Treatment For Their Acne?

My acne got on my last straw today - I walked into the shower this morning and overnight a giant, .75 inches in diameter, zit appeared on my chest. Yes... I have acne... on my chest *sigh* in addition to my back, forehead, cheeks, neck, chin, even some on my lips, and I've gotten acne on my legs and arms before, places people wouldn't typically imagine. I am an 18 year old male and I'm ready to give up on these little WalGreens treatments that suppress the problem for a few days after weeks of repeated use. Even if a patch of red and pus fades away, an even uglier one will replace it somewhere else.

I've always had constant acne since the age of 12 or so but only two or three pimples not dozens or even a hundred at any given moment. This kills me to look at the mirror, to look at my peers who have clear faces (limbs, bodies, etc.) without even trying. I'll admit that a year ago I would pick at and pop my zits and that would leave gross, crusty, fleshy red marks on my skin that only hours later would be replaced with another capsule of opaque pus. I haven't done that in a while but at least then the acne was only on my face! I have run cross country for my whole high school career, obviously causing me to sweat everyday (except Sunday) but I would think that showering wouldn't make that such a huge problem. One more potentially key factor to consider is that this year I joined the weightlifting team and we work out every weekday and on Saturday I go the YMCA to get in more cardio exercise. On Sunday I go to church, work on my video projects (I hope to be a visual effects artist, SCAD accepted me), do the homework I probably put all off for today, and lastly attend youth group. I don't regret my rather packed schedule of honors courses and my part time job as a cashier, I went from flat to six pack and broke to thousand-naire since the beginning of this school year, it's like a dream minus the overbearing, hideous acne. I am not overweight, I am 171 lbs and exactly 6'.

I want to know if anyone has gone to a professional doctor for acne treatment and has had highly satisfactory results. How much would it cost, how long does it last for, what are potential side effects? I am in the Chicago area. Anything, any seriously effective safe treatment, advice, foods, or anything that has worked for your severe bodily acne please do share.

is it safe to use GHRH ( growth hormone reease hormone) when 17 years old to increase final development???

has anyone had experience with this??? this is said to be a safer way than using human growth hormone to increase size

also i am not satesfied with my penis size, penis size can only be increased while i am in puberty? by increasing the natural production of human growth hormones, while using growth hormone release hormone, this should increase my penis size, as well as my overall size. this is till possible at 17 right, im also a kinda late developer, i started at 13, grew a tash at 15ish, but havnt grown armpit hair until now, so this should work at increasing my penis size any overall size.

however i was wondering, could this disfigure my facial features, eg make my forehead nose jaw etc grow huge, does it have any affect on these parts

and also does it grow everything in proportion?? or culd i end up with a huge jaw, and everything else the same

people with experience with this would be apriciated, it is normal used as a muscle builder?

this is a list of its just a few of its benefits
Allows for normal growth in short children with GH deficiency.
- Increases muscle mass (and physical strength if combined with moderate exercise).
- Reduces wrinkling of the skin and some other effects of skin aging.
- Re-grows internal organs that have atrophied with age.
- Causes hyperplasia, the increase of more muscle cells.
