Facial acne can be stopped by regularly cleaning your face, not eating fatty foods. My dermatologist told me that you should also never wash your hair looking down because the oils can get trapped into your face and create more acne, so if thats the way you wash your hair make sure to wash your face afterwards or just lean your head backwards. If you have acne in other places (non vaginal or penis related) then use hibiclense (spelling), just damp it on a cloth and rub over the areas that get infected regularly.

Long term (few months) help/fix

Reduce or stop eating candy, potato chip, really fatty food
Drink one cup of green tea every day (loose leaf, not bagged)
Drink lots of water
Buy products from PHARMACY to clean your face, don't buy any cheap super market shit
Add vegetables to your diet, or more of them

Fast fix

See dermatologist and ask for pills. I ate them when i was 15. ALL my pimples disappeared in month and half. Got really nice skin. The con was that i literally was told not stay in direct sunlight too long, because i might get sunburns way more easily. There's many kinds of pills,,but the one i ate was particularly strong.

What do you mean by fatty? Like I should go for carb heavy low sugar foods like grains and shit?

I'm skeptical af but that's definitely something I haven't tried

Like to the point of overhydrating? I already only drink water pretty much.

I eat a medium amount of vegetables. I'm p skeptical that vegetables actually improve your skin tho and dont just replace whatever else in your diet was causing poor skin. The thing is tho I weight train pretty hard so I need a lot of calories

Does it dry out or irritate your skin at all? Because ultimately they would make things worse for me, when I started using a moisturizer along with them and cutting back on the face wash it actually worked a lot better.

Seems about the age that should be going away. Check with a dermatologist maybe.

Natural honey as a face wash. Something about it being very basic on the pH scale and offsetting the acne.

Yeah I do sometimes feel like it drys my skin out too much. I started using a sunscreen/moisturizer combo a few days ago but I stopped because I got freaked out that it might be making it worse, though it's probably too early to tell. But still I can't help shaking the feeling that putting and leaving stuff on my face will only make my acne worse.

I took it for 6 months when I was 17. 24 now, no acne in 7 years.

During the six months I had severe dryness everywhere, random extreme nose bleeds, suicidal thoughts, and horrible joint and lower back pain.

Now I just have some dryness and joints and back still hurt every once in awhile but not bad. I need to apply chapstick several times a day which sucks.

i don't have terrible acne but i've used ziana gel where there's pimples and whiteheads. it makes them go away faster (faster being a few days instead of a week) and stops new ones from forming at the same spot i think
but for me there's been no way to get rid of acne entirely. it sucks

Well, I think it's worth trying. If you're using something daily that dries/irritates your skin it could ultimately lead to no improvements at all.

Yeah I used to work in a pharmacy. They kept that shit on lock, you had to enroll in this thing that your doctor and the pharmacy had to verify each time called iPledge or something, iirc it was basically saying you wouldn't have children in the next x time period because of the crazy side effects it'd have on the baby.

It wasn't a controlled substance in the same vein as codeine but it was like almost more difficult to get Accutane because of all the restrictions.

Acne wash never helped and eventually my distrustful nature convinced me that it wouldnt so they could get repeat business. So I asked my self what do people do that don't have acne problems do? They wash their face like any other part of their body. So I started just using a wash cloth and plain unscented Safeguard soap. After enduring about two weeks of a bright red tender burning face, my skin started to heal and become accustomed to it. Been pretty much acne free for 10 years. Before i had a face full of those deep basterds all the time. Like ones that would need lancing and shit.

how much acne do you have? is it just a few zits on your face that you cant hide or are you covered in that shit?

i will say this as someone who had to go on accutane for a full year (double the recommended time)- its practically a miracle cure. i tried everything to get rid of mine and that was the only thing that worked. worse side effect includes depression (and potential suicide), but i never noticed that (or i was already so insanely depressed from the acne i couldnt really tell). the only real side effects i noticed was dry skin, lips and some urinating trouble (which was fixed by drinking and peeing frequently).

but my case was pretty extreme. dont know if you want to go that route if its not that huge of a problem.

On a scale 1 being a few zits and 10 being covered in that shit, I'm at maybe a 2 - 2.5. I can fluctuate from a 1 to a 3 though. It's not bad enough for accutane but goddamn do I want it gone still

Just go to the doctor.

You'll most likely be prescribed minocycline, a pill you need to take with 8 floz of water twice daily. If you're like me and forget to take it every morning and only take it once a day, they'll switch you to tazorac cream, which not only dries the fuck out of your face but also burns the fuck out of your face

Then they'll suggest accutane if none of that works

They don't like to suggest it right away because so much can go wrong with it and they don't wanna risk getting in trouble.

I definitely needed it though. I had horrible cystic acne on my face, neck, chest, and back.

Then the accutane purged my skin so all the zits and cysts that were forming underneath were fast tracked to the surface to hang out with all their buddies that were already on the surface. I couldn't smile without feeling pain because they were like right on the parts of my face that moved when I smiled and the skin there would tighten and occasionally make one pop. Yes, laughing at a joke would literally make pus and blood run down my face.

After the first month though I was mostly cleared up.

Also one side effect I forgot to mention earlier was extreme sensitivity to sunlight. I mean extreme. I checked the mail once and got sunburnt from it. I was outside for MAYBE 45 seconds.
