Acne treatment?

im 13 and have some major acne problems.


i have acne on my forehead and around my temples. i also have it near the top of my back.


do you know of any products or home remedies that you would suggest?|||Neutrogena Acne Wash is the best over the counter treatment. ProActive tends to irritate the skin or do nothing at all. It will take time, and Clearasil or Seabreaze is also a good leave on. Also AquaGlycolic has a line for the skin that is over the counter. It has glycolic acid in it which unclogs pores and helps with wrinkles, which I%26#039;m sure at 13 you don%26#039;t have but it will help later on in life.|||proactiv they also have provide acne body wash.|||Don%26#039;t use Proactive. I used it for a year and two months and it did absolutely nothing positive for my skin. If anything, it irritated my face moreso than it was.|||dial antibacterial soap and seabreaze toner|||I reccomend visiting a dermatologist if you have health insurance. They will be able to prescribe to you the strongest meds for your skin. I have seen Accutane work wonders on friends. I have tried Differin, and it did nothing for me. I also went on some sort of antibiotics for a while (don%26#039;t remember the name) and they worked pretty welll too.





If you just want to give a shot at over the counter stuff, get a gentle cleansing wash (I use Loreal Ideal Balance foaming face wash), then moisturize (Cetaphil), and then use a benzoyl peroxide product. Use the benzoyl peroxide every night. Make sure you NEVER sleep with makeup on at night, and wash your face every morning AND night.|||umm...i dont know of any remedies...but i do have advice...try not to cover your forehead too much...let your face breathe and i usually use %26quot;acne on the spot treatment%26quot; i think the brand is clearasil...but good luck!|||ZENO is something I swear by you see results the first day! Hope i helped!|||proactive! works great!|||FORGET ABOUT THOSE CRAZY EXPENSIVE ACNE TREATMENTS! You will just be wasting your money. My friend used Proactiv and her skin still is full of blackheads, pimples and looks awful! Stick with the basics, sweetie. Don%26#039;t use cleansers that are too harsh, the oil glands just become more active, just making matters worse. Try desert essence face wash (available at health food stores), but don%26#039;t use clean and clear face wash (it just clogged my pores). Exfoliate (with a gentle exfoliant) once a week (I absoluteley LOVE St. Ives apricot scrub). After washing, use a mild toner (such as loreal for combination skin, because the others are too gentle or too drying. Oil of olay toner is pretty good too), and then aply a moisterizer (make sure its not too greasy or too light), to balance your skin. Then before going to bed after washing your face, apply clean and clear or zapzit acne/blemish treatment with stalystic acid or benzoyl peroxide. Less is more w/ that stuff. Remember to apply that to your back too. After exercising, when you come home from school, or maybe in the school bathroom during lunch you can take a wet paper towel (or a cottonelle towelette) and wipe your face and your back. After exercising, the salt crystals from the sweat can clog your pores. Good luck!|||proactive 4 ur face n 4 ur acnee on ur body use sum stuff 4 ur body called acnee body wash
