   Χρησιμοποιώ για να έχω ακμή, εν τούτοις όχι τόσο κακή δεδομένου ότι εσείς. Τώρα δεν έχω καμία ακμή. Ζω στην Ταϊβάν αλλά όταν πηγαίνω στα κράτη που θα αγοράσω εξισώστε (εμπορικό σήμα Walmart), καθαρίζοντας μαξιλάρι προσώπου Noxzema ή Clearsil. Είναι βασικά ένα όξινο λουτρό για το πρόσωπό σας, ξεφορτώνεται το υπερβολικό δέρμα και crap. Πρίν χρησιμοποιώ το μαξιλάρι, θα χρησιμοποιήσω το κανονικό σαπούνι για να πλύνω το πρόσωπό μου, κατόπιν θα χρησιμοποιήσω Clearsil ή θα εξισώσω το αντιβακτηριακό πλύσιμο προσώπου του εμπορικού σήματος. The combination has been working for me for years. (now I am 28) Before that I always have nasty breakouts. The main point to remember is that there are bacterial on your face. Don’t use a towel when washing your face because the bacterial will stay on the towel and get rubbed back onto your face the next time you use it. Just use your hand and splash your face to clean. Don’t reuse the water from the sink either, use running water. Hope this helps.

   Sorry about my poor english. but:
   Try Boric Acid. Don´t worry, is inoffensive. It is used to clean contact lenses and baby ointments too. Just mix it with your soap an wash your face, just in night, and use a solar filter in day. I´m sure you will be amazed.

   I am in a similair situation to you right now. Unfortunatly the only promising cure on the market is Accutane. Accutane is a VERY strong medicine, it requires blood tests monthly to check on your liver. It has side effects but when used properly works mericals!!

   In the big picture, acne is caused by you oil production. Accutane from what i believe, is a 4-6 month treatment that lowers your bodies prodution of oil and these results are supposed to last a lifetime.

   I am in college and drink alcohol a few times a week. You CANNOT drink alcohol while on this medicine which is why i have been waiting to graduate college to take Accutane (because my social life would honestly die without alcohol right now).

   I would suggest you talk to your dermatologist about this and see if it’s right for you. Some doctors wont work with it but a lot will and their are tons of success stories and not many bad stories although the side effects list is long.

   Hey.
   I used to have acne, but i can control it now. All you need is a equilibrate life. What do i mean with this? Try to eat helthy food and do not drink milk, cheese and do not drink sodas such as coke because they have a lot of sugar and that maay worst your acne. Try to do exercise everyday and use garlic in your face to kill the bacteria.

   I’m 32. I’ve had acne since I was 13. From 15 - 20 my acne was cystic (truely horrifying). I’ve been on acutane twice. Once at 15 and again at 20. It did comepletely clear my skin. Unfortunately after a few years the acne would slowly return (although never quite as severe but still pretty bad). Now I’m 32 and still battling acne! It’s a nightmare, I know exactly how you feel. I’m not going to go on accutane again since I know it’s not a permenent cure and it can be dangerous to your health (it’s actually an overdose of vitamin A). My skin is super super oily and for that I use neutrogena cleanser/mask. It keeps oil production down and subsequentially my break outs are less severe (but still there). I tried proactive. It did nothing. I’ve tried EVERYTHING. Nothing really works for me.

   Sorry your suffering too.

   First off, don’t give up! Millions of people have the same problem and it can be treated successfully! Remember, there is no cure but treatment works. You just have to find the root cause. Hormones, oil production, environment, stress. Lots of causes and easy to deal with once you are on track.
   Good luck to you!

    Don’t worry dude I know how it feels like going to school or out to the mall or someother place with acne, since I have acne too. In my personal opinion I really don’t think there is any real cure to acne since I have tried nearly everthing from clearasil to proactive. But I have noticed from personal experience that there are ways that you can treat it(in otherwords reduce your acne). This may not have a huge effect, but atleast it can help you a bit, since I know it helped me. All you have to do is have a well balanced diet and try to avoid as much greasy foods as possible, especially nuts. Trust me those nuts aren’t very nice when it comes to acne >:). It is also very important to wash your face at least once everyday (twice is more prefferable) with soap and water. Also, try to exercise every once in a while if you have time. I can’t garuntee that this will completely cure your acne, but I can garuntee you that it will reduce. I know I still have acne, but thanks to these great tips that I got from my mom and friends, my acne is not as bad as it was before.
    Good Luck.

    Hey,

    I’ve had acne since I was about 11 years old, I’m 17 now. Back then it was all about sporadic breakouts, I would have acne esp. on my cheeks, maybe my chin, but then it would go away as fast as it came. But then it got really bad around the age of 16. But luckily I found a dermatologist, and am now on Duac, which is 5% benzoyl peroxide and 1% clindamyacine, I believe and am on some sort of oral medication, I think it’s the next step above minocycline because that did absolutely nothing for my skin. But now, my acne has become less red, less severe, it’s actually starting to fade. All I can advise you to do is to lessen the stress in your life, because due to past experiences, my stress has contributed to my acne. And with your confidence, just be yourself. Even when my acne was extremely bad, my whole face being red, people would always tell me they don’t see my acne when they talk to me, because my character is just overwhelming. lol. Keep your head up. People will love you for who you are, just be confident like there’s no tomorrow.

    HI,
    I just wanted to say that i think you should just keep your chin up. Loads of my friends have had acne and everyone now and then has a few spots. I PROMISE you it is only in very very rare cases that it doesn’t go after a few years. Calm down!!!
    I’m sure people are interested in your sunshine personality and are probably not interested in staring at every inch of your face and analysing it!!! Okay, just keep happy and i promise no-one notices it half as much as you probably do!
    Lots of love

    this is the best acne treatment I am giving you. I have had it for a very long time; I have tried all kind of medecine, nothing; wasted thousands of dollar and still nothing. Once you have acne, you should not think about it or worry about because if you do, it will just get worse. It is as if your body does not like when you feel embarrased because of your acne. Second, when you are having pimples on your face, try to take some antabiotic so that the infection does not increase. third, do not touch your face or the place you have them because it will get worse. Do not use anything to clean your face. Use your hands and after let your face dry by itself. Do not break your acnes if they are just apprearing, you should wait until they will last for about two weeks before chosing to take out the mucus and use an antibiotic. Avoid dust. clean your face with water when you feel it is dirty. There is no definitive medication for acne, you should just learn to control it. but now, I just know to manage it and you can live in peace with a beautiful face. It is amazing, but I do not use anything beside the advice I gave you and use antibiotics sometimes.

    Vitamin B% is pretty effective. I’ve also had acne for about 13 yrs. Vitamin B5 help controls it. THe only thing is you have to take 20 pills a day. DO a google search and you will find a lot of information. It’s the next best thing to Accutane without the side effects

    Some Ideas

    Hi!
    Like you I have Acne, and I’ve tried just about everything and here’s the scoop: Acne is caused by different stressors in everyone, from diet, to hormones, to lack of hygiene, so no cure will work for everyone. Harsh chemicals are bad all around; even ProActive can make the scaring worse! Wash your face with a sensitive soap, but avoid moisturizers, they make the acne worse. Avoid bread products because they also aggravate the problem. Here’s the good news: very few people have to live with acne beyond about nineteen to twenty-two years of age; it goes away over time! Lastly, if you are really that desperate, try this, it looks difficult but it will work against which ever stressor is your main problem:

    I am trying Portamins Super Zinc 60 mg pills. So far so good, but I have to use it longer before I can ensure this really corrects my problem.

    15 mg is the daily recommended intake for an normal person. My pills are 60, I take each day. The upper safe limit has been described to be around 50 mg (http://www.health24.com/dietnfood/Whats_in_food/15-47-108-123.asp)

    If you took to small amount of zinc, maybe you should give it another try.

    too little daily intake of zinc can cause skin problem (inflammatory acne in some cases), mental torpor, slow healing of wounds, bad breath, loss of hair, bad appetite. I am sure you know of all this already, and of course, zinc is not the solution to all cases of acne.

    also, I see some people suggest controlling the acne, while others are talking about curing it totally.

    Those talking about controlling it usually suggest you can not cure it totally. I guess that is just a matter of belief.

    Maybe some people can never fix it, and maybe some can. Maybe those who found a way to control it, just did not find the way to fix it.

    Try to figure out if your body is short of any minerals or vitamins. There should be professionals around who can make a complete map of your state of vitamins and minerals. I know they did for this guy in the super-size movie. (I just hope this is available to the common people)

    Then you can see if your body is missing something, and try to correct it. I have not done it yet, but it will probably be my next step.

    good luck

    as for the mental health…

    We all have abilities as humans, but as a person with acne, I have often disabled myself in life. Low self esteem is just the tip of the iceberg of the mentality that acne-people suffers from. Outward shyness and inward self hate is common, and will not make anyone successful in life..

    My personal solution is to do martial arts. I have found a very good group. My effort in it, removes my attention from my facial problem. In martial arts I can see I still have lots of abilities, and the training is a way to build a strong character, so much needed to live through the darkness surrounding people with acne.

    Thats my personal solution. The point here is that it is good to find something to do in life, that does not value the facial appearance, and that builds a strong character. My recommendation to you all.

    Hey, I’m 18 and I have the same problems you do and I understand just how much of a killer it is to see your skin being torn apart like this. I promised myself that in 2008 I would get rid of it and so far I have tried a few things. Firtly I would STRONGLY reccomend that you take the time to have a look at this website “www.acne-advice.com”, I have found it to be extemelt beneficial. It sells a book called “Clear Skin” and it goes into detail on how to control your acne with natural remedies and diet. I tried this for about 4 weeks and then snapped, because the diet is very strict. However, in those 4 short weeks my skin cleared up DRAMATICALLY!!! Diet may not be the CAUSE of acne, but changing to a more healthy diet and eliminating certain foods WILL make your skin appear much more healthy. Since I snapped I have also been using a very lenient foaimng skin cleanser and even though I have still been eating a lot of rubbish it did seem to be having a good effect, so I am about to try again, using both things together and for a more sustained period of time, because I am at my wits’ end! If you are truly desperate, I would recomend the Clear Skin book. It is hard to stick to the diet but, you do see results!

    Best Wishes and good luck =)

    tell me bout it. ive had sever acne for…almost 2 years now. started going away novemeber last year but the bastard came back a few months ago now im back to square 1. ive used pro active, differen gel, derma tech ance solution, taken milocilyn and some other bullshit anti biotic. n u know what ive realised …..its all bullshit coz if it worked i wouldnt be sitting here typing this message. this is what ive decided to do. research your vitamins and mienrals needed for healther skin. ill tell u right now. vit a,c,e are the mains ones along with 2-3 litres of water. high gi foods also agravate acne as it gauses a rush of the enzyme insuline to break down the food. trust me dud spend a good 2 hours just trying shit on goodle about foods with acne, best face washes.
    i use dove 2 in 1 cleanser and toner coz its the same ph level as your skin so it does not dry it out like soap…what ever u do dont use soap..trust me. um…also looking into the zinc suppliments.
    neways good luck to every1 out there n hopefully i helped in 1 way or another. bye

    Hey man, feel your pain. Broke out horribly last year and still suffering. I don’t have as much now, but mine was about 7x worse. But here’s how I deal with it.

    Don’t wash your face if you were like me and wash it 10342249 times a day lol. Once in the morning while in the shower. Or once in the evening while in the shower. I prefer morning so I look pretty lol.

    Green Tea and other foods/drinks with antioxidants. It really helps. Also, try either A to Zinc or 1-A-Day All Day Energy. Both have just about every vitamin you need. But I also secretly take a Zinc suppliment too to help… But shhh… Don’t tell my mum ;]

    And I also go swimming. That seemed to help a lot. Lots of sunshine and chlorine eating away my face REALLY did help. But it’s not perminent.

    And if your face is way dry… Try Petroleum Jelly (or Vaseline as it’s commonly called). It doesn’t clog pores (as opposed to belief) and, if you get that acne with the puss on the borderline saying, “Hey, pop me, you bastard!” don’t do it. It means your face is getting mosturized and returning to normal. Just be sure to wash your face gently everyday and be sure to do it gently! Scrubbing away vigorously irritates skin.

    Cheers!

    To bring down the inflamation and minimize the postules-brew green tea and when its very cold-put it on your face as a cold compress-either use the tea bags or with cotton balls (I use cotton balls) this actually works and brings down the swelling. You can also use Tea Tree oil which is great for blemishes (the smell is strong, but it works) and any infection you might have. Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi I’ve tried everything from tea tree oil which burnt my face to demetoligist perscriptions that made my face sooo dry it looked horrible. Then I used proactive and it worked I know it’s more $ than home remedies but home remedies are useless and exhusting. I always thought it would cost me $100 a month but really it’s only $30 and it’s got a 60day gurentee.Just make sure to use the oilfree moisturizer if your dry or have combination skin, or the daily oil control if your oily. And I’ve read some of these people’s suggestions and if you decide to try them just use commen sense if something feels really heavy like a moisturizer ment for the body then it’s clogging your pores and if it’s drying then it causeing your body to produce extra oil both will cause break outs!
