So embarrassing but I have body acne, not bad, but I get pimples on my shoulders, chest, back, upper thighs and butt. Does anyone know a good treatment? I know proactiv is good, but I don’t know if it works for the body. And I don’t want to spend that kind of money for something I haven’t heard of and don’t know if it works or not.

Okay…so i have cystic acne and the 1 thing that actually worked on my skin when I received a facial was the high frequency machine. I bit the bullet and bought a high-end spa device that is the identical device that my aesthetician uses on me to treat acne using high frequency.
she put a salicylic serum on my face prior to using high frequency. she told me that the combination of the serum with high frequency would help to further penetrate the salicylic serum.
I am just confused because i thought that this device should not be used in conjunction with alcohol based products.
Can you let me know what is classified as a safe serum to put on my face (that will help my cystic acne) prior to using the high frequency device. I want to use a serum in conjunction with the treatment!
Please give me proper instructions for the most effective treatment( inclusing best serums to use with this device during treatment)…. including how often i should to it!
THANKS

ok im 15 years old and ive suffered from sever acne for quite a few years and i spent a total of $3,296 on acne treatments alone just last year. nothing is really working for me. any advice?

I have school in like a month and I do not want to go back with a lot of acne. I have already tried proactiv and it doesn’t work for me. I’m gonna go to the dermatologist but they only have an appointment like 3 weeks away. Please somebody help!

Im 15 and Ive had acne for about 4 years and Im sooo sick of it! I went to a derm. about 2 years ago and had tried some other creams but nothing has worked. I really am determined to have better skin by the time school starts – but when I scheduled another appointment to see a derm. there wasnt one available till a week after school. Does any body know home treatment that have ACTUALLY WORKED for themselves or a friend? Its just not a couple zits either, remeber I said mild-moderate, so please dont say something like toothpaste – that would be covering almost my whole face…I only have a promblem on my face – no where else on my body.

All help greatly apprciated!
I also have oily skin

I have tried just about everything from over-the-counter things, to prescribed treatments and medication. Nothing seems to work, and while my face is very clear and I rarely have a blemish, it is still a problem on my shoulders, chest, and both my lower/upper back. It is not extreme, but enough to make me self-conscious. Does anyone know of anything organic/herbal that works?

My daughter is getting acne breakouts on her back and on her forehead and occasionally pops up in other areas of her face. She’s gone to the dermatologist and uses the medicine. It works a little, but Is there a better solution or health practice alternative or the ultimate solution to keep it from reoccurring?

i have acne on my forehead sides of my face ( above my ears) and on my chin. i need to clear it and i was hoping that this treatment would work. If i have acne all the time then if i put this on will it clear it fast? and how fast? also does it work for body acne?
