PostHeaderIcon how can I get rid of acne and get my soft, smooth skin back? please help me?

I have a really bad problem in acne, cuz I have bunch of acne on my face, some are old and left scars. I went to 3 doctors just because I wanna get rid of that, but I receive no result. They gave me some different medicine or cream, but it get worse, then I have to stop them. Then I tried some different thing like "neutrogena", "clean & clear", but it still has no changed :(, and now my skin looked so bad, it doesn’t soft, and smooth like before. Some body please get me an opinion, thanks so so much.

Have u ever tried proactiv? i havent but i always see the commercial so its worth a try. my skin used to be kinda bad and i started using this stuff called clindamycin pledgets. they are pads like stridex that u wipe your face with in the mornings and at night. they really work for me, but you would need a prescription from a doctor to get them. hope that helps!

PostHeaderIcon What Is The Best Product To Rid Acne?

I’m using pads and scrubs for my face to clean it everyday.
Now I’m looking for a product to rid my face of acne. I don’t have that many blemishes, but still, they are annoying! I have pretty sensitive skin too. I’m 15, if that makes a difference.

Any suggestions?

Clean & Clear?
ProActive?
Clinique?
Skin ID?
Nuetrogena?

Thanks Guys/Gals! ~ Lauren Gina
Personal experiences? I’d like to know! thank you!

Well I’ve tried all of that except skin ID, but none of them worked. But then i discovered something that did actually work. It’s from Kohl’s and it’s with all of their face stuff and the brand is Good Skin and the specific type is oil and acne-prone skin. Hope it helps :).

PostHeaderIcon Medical Care For Acne - 3 Reasons To See A Doctor

For both adolescents and adults, acne can be an aggravating problem. There are many variations of acne and differing degrees of severity. The physical, emotional and psychological effects can be devastating, affecting an individual ’s confidence, self-image and self-esteem for many years. Although several of the milder types of acne respond well to over-the-counter treatment products, more severe forms require medical attention. Acne care is vitally important regardless of the type, but it is just as vital to know when a case of acne requires a dermatologist to treat it.

Three Reasons To Consult A Physician

The decision to see a physician or dermatologist about your acne should take into account several things:

1. Is your acne causing you emotional difficulties?
2. How severe your outbreaks are.
3. If your skin seems to be scarring when the lesions heal.

There are several more reasons why it may be wise to seek professional help with your acne but these three comprise most of them. Severe acne may leave permanent scars; seeking medical help early on may help to reduce the effects of scarring. The best way to prevent scarring is, of course, to prevent acne from occurring in the first place. The right skin care regimen and possible dietary changes, are needed to control acne breakouts.

Recent studies have shown that food sensitivities may contribute to the formation of acne, such as allergies to wheat, dairy and certain fruits. One such study has shown that women consuming three or more glasses of milk per day were 22% more likely to have acne breakouts than women consuming only one glass of milk per day. This may be due to the hormones present in fresh dairy products, but some dermatologists are recommending that their patients with cystic acne avoid mild products and use alternative sources of calcium intake. The type of acne and skin type plays an important role in how acne is best treated.

If you have cystic acne, also known as nodulocystic acne, it must be treated by a physician. Do not try to treat it yourself because it can cause very painful lesions and scarring of the face, neck, back and shoulders. Cystic acne resembles small bumps or tumors, blackheads may not be present with it, sometimes the lesions fill with a combination of blood and pus, cystic pimples may involve more than one pore, and they are very deep within the skin layers. This type of acne should be treated by a dermatologist as quickly as possible, in addition, some dietary changes may be needed to decrease the outbreaks of this type of acne.

Emotional distress, such as severe anxiety, depression or social reclusiveness, are also good reasons to seek professional assistance. Severe acne sufferers feel helpless to control the situation particulary for adultsdue to the notion that acne should clear up once a person becomes an adult. Acne scarring has long term effects, often affecting a person’s choice of occupation, social interactions and dress. A medical professional can help to restore a person’s self confidence as well as helping clear up the acne.

For men, sever acne can shaving difficult. Shaving irritates pimples and lesions, may irritate existing scars and lead to further outbreaks of acne. A good razor, shaving creams and other products help to reduce the irritation and inflammation of acne, but a medical professional can also prescribe creams and medications to eliminate it.

It may be a good idea to visit a dermatologist at the outset of acne, even if you aren’t sure that it is a severe form of acne. Medical advice can help in the choice of skin care products, provide assistance regarding acne care and daily routines even if prescription medications aren’t required. In severe cases of acne, a physician is indispensable to help reduce the effects, treat the cause and prevent future outbreaks.
