Hi,

I used to have really bad acne right from my teenage years . It was pretty embarassing to go to college with my acne patched face and I was desperate to get rid of it somehow. I took plenty of efforts to keep my face clean all the time and also ate nutritious food and drank lots of water. None of it helped though. I then recently read an article about a lady who got rid of her acne completely using a particular acne product. I tried it and it worked really well. Within 4 weeks my acne reduced and soon disappeared.  Really good stuff. You can read more about the lady’s article at the link below.

Accutane

 

  RS-K posted Re:Acne Remedies on 4 mnths ago

Thanks. A little google search of it scared more lights out of me than my entire search for Alli did.

http://www.drugs.com/accutane.html

Right now, I am trying:

Lots of water.
An Acne spot treatment in the morning
Washing face in the office too with an acne type soap
Coming home, wash face again
Multani mitti (sometime mix lemon and/or turmeric in it)
New try last night - Broke a Cod liver oil capsule and applied it on the acne. (dunno why, I am going experiment crazy)
New try last night - toothpaste on the spots in the night. 
Drank Amla juice (made at home).

It seemed better today. No new breakout. Old ones are a little shrunk. *fingers crossed*

Do not use toothpaste on your acne - it causes scarring.. I don't know what the other things you mentioned are. Neutrogena makes effective treatments for mild acne. Look for products with 2% Salicylic Acid, anything less than that is a waste of money.

How bad is your acne? Let's assume it is grade 4 cystic acne.  I'm guessing you are an adult woman..I think you mentioned you even had kids....You're right Accutane is not a safe drug but it is the best drug out there for acne. May I recommend ALA photodynamic therapy therapy alongside oral antibiotics if you are at grade 4?

If you have scars, get yourself N-light therapy. It will stimulare collagen production. Also, if the scars are dark you have to use a lightener like 4% hydroquinone...sunblock with spf 20 is enough...if you want a home remedy, go with a 30 minute application of fresh carrot juice and honey.

 How do you know all this?

ok. Making that appt. with a dermatologist next. Will ask if he/she can start that BC pill for me that works good on the skin. I don't have grade 4. But mine do look cystic these days. I am breaking out at spots where I never had pimples before.

I can't do w/o makeup though. I look ghostly scary with all those scars.

respected RS-K
If any person who scraches her face with any thing such as with nails, finger, towel or with any thing then Acne will not spread
Precation is better than cure

how abt urine do u think rubbing urine over acne helps?
  Dr. Rakshak Mal Lodha posted Re:Acne Remedies on 4 mnths ago
Thanks for asking about application of urine 
so not to rub or massage urine or any thing but can apply urine but it shall be only effective when such person leaves habit of scraching face 
So I said that precaution is better than cure

hmm...i never got acne in my life .

keep ur stomach light and clean...drink lots of water and orange juice.

Oh this doesn't help at all, tried and tested.  There's a possibility of it running in families, stress related, or allergy related. 

I never had acne, but bad skin, and tried creams, remedies etc, nothing worked, I have never worn make up (only on the eyes).  Only lately I found the Decleor Aromessence effective, (Rose d'orient) for sensitive skin - it is completely pure grown and natural essential oils.  I also find that Bio-Select organic olive sunprotective milk with dictamo works, and its a lot cheaper, the dictamo works on bad skin.  But don't be fooled by organic brands, they can still bring you out in zits or hives.  Also using oils in place of creams helps because there is nothing white in the oil to block your pores.  

Best to keep sugar intake low, and keep away from chilli, that is fatal!

:P

  smitasamm posted Re:Acne Remedies on 4 mnths ago
I am fine thankyou QB, taking a long peaceful break from what I was doing, laying in bed until 8.00pm, long slow bath afterwards, pfaffing around all day, growing cotton and strange small round zucchini's on my windowsill, juggling, and freaking out occasionally in connection with my forthcoming surgery, only 3 weeks to go ahhhhhhhhhh!

And would you know it, I have an admirer :).
  Queen Bee posted Re:Acne Remedies on 4 mnths ago

Actually. There *is* a tried-and-tested method carried out by two ex-girlfriends with spectacular results. It's called the Jizz Face Pack method. Just when I'm about to bust a nut, I pull up over their face and let it spurt. They spread the love juice all over their face and let it dry like a face pack. When their face begins to resemble a glazed donut, they wash it with warm water and put a cucumber pack for like 10 mins. Acne gone. If you're performing eye rollage as you read this, please do yourself a favor and google "sperm acne" and have a nice evening.

you're welcome, Bittu
