I never had a problem with acne when I was a teen and now I’m 27 I have adult acne it is terrible even if I don’t pick it scares. I am so sick and tired I have tried everything from over the counter to doctors, plastic surgeons you name it even chemical peels and nothing!!! Does anyone know of something good I don’t care if it is a product from a different country. I need something a solution.

I used accutane about 7 years ago and don’t really want to resort to that again.

I see some students with acne, even all over their face. I don’t want to offend them, but I just can’t stand to look at a person with gross acne.
What’s a more polite and safer way to let people know they need to get rid of their acne? In what way would I tell them without having them misinterpret my offer / take my offer as offensive?

i’ve had back acne for so long.
what things work for back acne?

I recently discovered a few pimples showing up on my back, I am 24 I NEVER had acne problems even during my teen years and right now it is really bothering me because it is only showing on my back which is really hard to treat it.. and I don’t know where to start.. it is really embarrassing.
Anybody know a good treatment BESIDES PROACTIVE. Thank you!!

Hi.. I’ve tried alot of skin care products but they rarely don’t work… But if anybody used any skin care products and they work please tell me or if anyone has use homemade remedies..
Any Information is greatly appreciated..
Thanks…

if your looking for a good affordable drugstore cleanser for acne then stay here! so yes i know this isnt a question…but i just wanted to get this out there to people…im a “normal” teenage girl and i suffer from teen acne (puberty obviously). im embarrassed by my skin. ive tried a bunch of different drugstore facial cleaners, moisturizers, toner, etc. none of them have worked for me. not cetaphil, clean and clear..anything really. i have to pay for my own products btw. i was thinking about ordering pro active when my mom told me she heard some good things about “Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Complete Acne Therepy System”. so i went to walgreens.com and they said they were having a sale on it. 19.99$. plus it comes with a litle clear acne spot treatment thing. (btw i have extreeeeemely oily skin) so i got it yesterday…washed my face and did the step by step and did it again this morning…my skin ALREADY looks great. its brought out the color and texture in my skiin as well as reduced my breakouts. of course my skin isnt fully cleared but im going to continue to use this and i cant wait to see how my skin looks in about a week. =) take my advice and TRY THIS STUFF OUT while the sale is still going at walgreens! good luck!

I’ve always had really beautiful, naturally tan skin. But starting this year, it gradually got worse and worse. I don’t think what I have is acne, but my cheeks are a really splotchy pink, with pink spots on my cheeks and jawline. And the texture is rough in places. But they don’t look like pimples?
I don’t think it’s Rosacea, or whatever, because I don’t blush really bad. And my face doesn’t burn more than any normal person. Only when I’m embarrassed, angry, or in really really hot weather.
Does anyone know what might be wrong? I wanted to go to a dermatoligst, but my mom doesn’t want to…

So like the questions says, anyone know how to get rid of back acne. Soap and water seems to help a bit, but it’s not really going away. Is there any kind of body wash for this?

I’m a dermatologist and I was wondering who thinks they know what to do if they get acne. I’m only asking to test how many adults, teens, and children really know what to do to take care of their face. If you do know, tell me atleast one of the things you should do to keep a healthy and clear face.

I am 16 years-old. My cheeks are always red, and it is so annoying especially when I get hot, they get really red. I noticed in pictures, I always have red cheeks, but I guess I never cared…but now I do. Like heated rooms for instance make them ever redder. People giving me stares. It is so embarrassing, awkward, and uncomfortable at the same time. It is ruining my life, and I have gotten to the point that I have to get rid of it, or I can never live a happy life. Yes, I have even considered suicide, so just to show you how big an issue it is to me.
I am desperate for answers. It is not rosacea and I have a little acne on my forehead. But I dont care about acne because every single teenager has acne. What I dont like is having red cheeks because I am the only one with red cheeks. I feel different and it sucks.
I dont want to wear make-up, but are there creams that are good for eliminating red cheeks. I eat healthy, but I dont exercise regularly, which I should. But still, its obviously hereditary, but not from my parents…my sister also has red cheeks all the time too.
Please help me.

i use this it worked very well i have very little acne now(i had it on my chest and back too.) one good thing to do is dont pick at your back i did that and it got worse then i stoped and it cleared up so try your hardest not to do that

Ok here is a picture of someone I know that has a very difficult skin problem on the face that has persisted over years…
She has gone to a lot of dermatologists and they either don’t know, or say it’s rosacea or a form of acne. But everything they have given her has not worked.
She is currently on Accutane which is a really strong antibiotic. She is on a course of 5 months. She has taken it for 3 months now. It has not gotten better, if not even worse. They are open sores, with pus inside them, they feel like they have liquid in them. They scab over but then pop with the pus trickling out of them. She has them in several places on her face as you can see in the picture. She is devestated with this, and no one knows what this is. Does anyone have this problem, or does anyone know what it can possibly be? Also if anyone has taken accutane, can you tell me what it was for and if it worked?
