Acne, The Bane Of Adolescence. Why we hate it. How we fix it. - General

I only get some spots on my chin and temple every now and then. [editline]2nd November 2010[/editline] And on my shoulders.

[QUOTE=FreddiRox!;25807555]Wash.[/QUOTE] I wash my face daily with soap and water. This, combined with a good moisturizer, keeps my skin healthy and acne-free. :)

What I do to apply acne treatment is. I walk into a public restroom, take my hands, apply my hands around the toilets flooring, and rub my hands all over my face. The next day you're clean free and ready to talk to that girl!

Accutane. (or rather its equivalents since it doesn't exist anymore) I had bad acne. Now I have been on it a few months. Now my acne is not bad. I have thus concluded that it works well.

[QUOTE=ZapDing;25807383]Electrical sander. Some people will get the joke.[/QUOTE] Direct treatment of acne includes sanders or lasers.

I don't have acne, I only tend to get a few spots at a time. I still wash my face every day though.

I used to have acutane, but had to stop using it after an allergic response. I've got benzonyl peroxide at the moment.

You can pop your zits. Half those fucking myths come from trash magazines anyway. Go ahead, try if you don't believe me. The pus is NOT contagious, and it does NOT cause more acne where it's touched. Don't even know why I'm in this thread, I've only ever had very mild acne a few times.

Eww... birth control makes it go away, but I guess that doesn't help ya fellas.

I get spots at times but I don't have acne popping them feels godly

Drink lots of water and stop eating all the sugary shit all the time. Eat some fruits and vegetables if you want good skin.

Take showers, problem solved, and exercise

Had it since I was around 11, absolutely hate it. Currently trying this cream stuff, but if it doesn't work i'll absolutely insist on accutane, whatever the side effects may be.

Had it bad for about 3 years, starting from grade 7-10, then I went to a doctor, they gave me some pills, I took them for about a year, and now I get some every now and then, scars are still here, but its looking better now

Put a clean towel over your pillow every night before you go to bed, wash your face in the morning and evening.

Aloe vera, aloe vera, aloe vera, aloe vera, aloe vera, aloe vera, aloe vera, aloe vera. Shit works miracles! It's natural and effective against my acne. It heals cuts and burns, scabs them up very quikcly and also makes a great "personal lubricant." But yeah acne sucks, i often get pimples under the skin which hurt like a bitch. I also have a very bad habit of popping them, i have a fuck load of scars on my forehead.

none of the products I've tried work, even stuff from the doctor. I think I just gotta wait until I'm less of a greasy teenager. It's waaaay better than it used to be and I sure as hell haven't done anything to make it like that. I reckon if I cleaned my diet up and drunk more water then I'd stop getting spots.

Pop the big ones then rub cream all over it

I never had acne my entire life, :smug:

I don't have a problem with acne but I do have a load of blackheads. :saddowns:

I don't care bout my acne. I never did. It's just a phase. Although it can last quite long. Usually you're not alone. I am 20 now and it's naturally disappearing now. So i've had it for like 4 years (and still, just not the type that you can pop). It's not pretty. You don't have to care about it though. Unless you're after the ladies. Should be noted at if it's really bad as in it covers your face, you might wanna go check with a doctor see if it should be helped.

I've had them for about 3 years now. It's starting to subside a little bit. Still pretty bad though. Oh and for you people that say take a lot of showers. 90% (or something like that) of acne is cause by genetics, not whether you shower once a day or 5 times a day. Showering does help but that's not a good thing to tell someone since it's kind of obvious that if someone has it they would be washing.

Recommend me a usage amount per day if you can. Thank you!
