Nothing really works for people I've seen with extremely bad acne.  People who have pimples all over their face sometimes choose to take accutane (it's the most powerful drug ever prescribed for acne). 

If you are looking for advice, I would say just wash your face lightly  (can even just be with water) and do this 2x a day.  I would also go buy some topical cream for acne and use that at night.  <--that was my routine in high school.  PEACE <3 the acne talk :smile:

Change of diet, drink more water, proper sleep, some exercising (followed by a shower), and if its bad enough, get some medication (probably prescribed by a doctor). I had a friend in high school who had it bad on his face and every couple of months his doctor had him on a new medication. A couple times he was on some stuff which I believe was hormone treatment and other stuff.

Look into gluten (in wheat and other grains).  It can be a big cause of acne.  Eat more fruits and veggies (up to 70% of you diet raw fruits/veggies) and it will improve.  Coconut oil is antibacterial and kills acne causing bacteria, you can eat it or apply topically.

"A human being is part of the whole, called by us 'Universe'; a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.

This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and affection for a few persons nearest us.

Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty.

Nobody is able to achieve this completely but striving for such achievement is, in itself, a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security."

Start gradually eating more carrots, celery, cucumber, and watercress. Eliminate foods which are spicy, fatty, or greasy; also avoid sweets.

For really bad acne they'd prescribe acutane. If it's not that bad, but you want something for it then I think they'd prescribe minocyline.

Acutane should do it. :thumbup:

It really depends on a few things, I'll assume for one you mean a male which rules out hormone treatments.

Fish oil at a decent dose will make things look better.  Along with avoiding fried foods.  The reason fish oil helps and fried foods tend to hurt is due to omega-3 fats(fish oil) being anti-inflammatory while omega-6 fats (most fried foods) are pro-inflammatory.  This doesn't mean that one is good or the other is bad, the body needs both.  The standard western diet is very heavy in the 6's though.  If you buy fish oil gelcaps instead of liquid just break one open and make sure it doesn't smell rancid.

Another natural way to help is by getting as much sunlight as possible.  If you live in an overcast or cold area you can consider a tanning membership.  UV light kills the bacteria and also has anti-inflammatory properties.  Sunlight definitely works better but unless you live in the tropics you will probably need to go tanning to see real results.  Ignore the countless websites that claim tanning doesn't work.  There are hundreds of studies on pubmed showing UV light is beneficial to many inflammatory and autoimmune skin diseases.

If you want an over the counter treatment go look on acne.org.

I personally wouldn't touch accutane because some of the effects it has on the body are permanent.  So many lawsuits have been filed against the original patent holder they no longer manufacture the drug in the US.  I would only go that route if it were cystic (scarring) acne.

Yeah I forgot to mention a very important one.. stay away from milk.  The hormones can seriously affect the skin of someone who is acne prone.  Just try going without it for a while and see what happens.  No cheese, nothing.  I still use whey protein though.

Wheat gluten can be another one, but it seems much more difficult to avoid and at least in my personal experience it is not as universally detrimental to acne as milk.

cutting gluten out of your diet also helps clear the skin tremendously...the diet is difficult to maintain but worth the benefits.

No, it probably wouldn't clear up.  Most people see a significant improvement though.

don't do it!

try ayurveda, that's what finally helped me in the end after all the pills and chemical ridden products the dermatologists gave me didn't work.  i've been practicing for 2 years now, my skin is free and clear!

you're going to need to change your diet and lifestyle though, so it's kind of a commitment.  in order for me to give specific advice on what foods to avoid you would need to take a ayurvedic constitution test.  let me know if you're intersted i'll post a link.

First thing you really have to do:
Don't pop any of them that aren't red and swollen. I used to sit around and pop everything on my face...it just coases more problems. Your face should get rid of the bumps amd you can work on the red ones.

Next thing: Use Hydrogen Peroxcide, bacteria can't survive in an oxygen rich environment, drowned the area (use a lot) in H2O2 (2 oxygen molecules) and it should help clear away a lot of the bacteria in your pores. It also cuts through excess oil on your skin so your pores don't clog.

Last: If you pop the big pimples, make sure you make/use a dropper of some sort so you can put a bubble of sorts of H2O2 on the open pore. I've done this sometimes where the peroxcide goes into the pore, bubbles inside and pops the pimple more. It will also kill excess bacteria inside the open pore so it doesn't get re infected.

Simple, and it won't clear it, but I've seen a major improvement on my face.

its what you put it in man.. dont drink soda (dark especially) if you do drink soda make sure its not brown.. dont eat chips, like the saturated ones.. dont eat a lot of SNACKS basically.. its common sense man, just eat good food.. make your own food, cook son.. if you really want to snack then just make snacks.. it starts with munchies i know, when you get faded, just make something that isnt gonna just make the munchie feeling go right away.. eat something satisfying, that will actually do you body good somewhat.. start off easy, you dont have to just giove up eating food you like the taste of.. just dont trash your body with junk foods and shit.. its not msg or anything like that, its the soy additives especially that cause craters. and sweeteners that cause redness and acne.. acids from sodas just make your skin burst these toxins out.. sugars too, if you eat a lot of sugars its just gonna cause more acne, just dont eat a bnunch of processed foods.. its really easy.. going vegetarian will deffinately help your skins texture too.. also, DO NOT over wash your face.. the lyes and SLS in soap will clog your pores causing more acne, the puffy kind.. so just wash every once in a while, i dont even wash mine once a day, and i dont have any acne, barely 1 pimple like every once in a while.. slathering your face in creams and shit might cover it at first, but once you stop they come back in full force, and it costs a liot of money to keep buying shit like that.. so just eat better man, and drink some water.. your body needs hydration.. common sense..

dont follow this.. honestly do NOT "use" anything.. hydrogen peroxide might kill bacterias, but once they die and respawn, they come back fiercer.. plus, it will cause redness considering that its a manufactured chemical.  i know from experience.. "bacteria" are reproductive.. and most times the pimples that come back after killing bacterias with chemicals HURT like a fucking bitch cuz they are pissed off that you just killed them.. somtimes they bite because they can be tiny parasites.. depending on how severe it is.. but dont freak out when i say "parasites" though.. they are only there to get rid of excess toxins.. anyways.. just stick to a better diet, and wash your face once in a while.. namely, because water has metals and stuff from your pipes.. eating better (especially vegetarian) will give you much easier skin.. dont you want girls to touch nice skin..?  just look at it like this.. the food you eat, your body is going to convert it something similar to its consistency.. so additives and stuff, basically cause the crustiness of acne, pastrys and bleached flours cause the puffiness and pinkness.. sugars cause the toxins.. etc etc.. its really just a matter of decision man.. if you want nice skin, be nice to your skin.. and ALSO, if you lean your face on your hands, make sure your hands arent greasy..  if you REALLY want to put anything on your face, put some bud oil from ganja leaves on it.. it will help regenerate your skin and probably help with adding melanin back to your skin tone.. make sure you see the sun too, vitamin d is from sunlight.. make sure to go outside and get some air.. your face needs to breathe..


listen to nicolita, he knows whats up.. there are plants and herbs that can clear the toxins that you already have, if you want faster results..

I've had moderate acne for most of my life.  I have tried several different things (I too would steer clear of acutane, too many bad side effects.)

Ok. Honestly clean air, clean water and mud are the best elements to put oneself in.  The air and water in a healthy environment act as a sort of vaccum for toxins that accumulate on the skin.  Mud will literally suck out the toxins. I'm not kidding, either. I have had really bad acne before, applying mud and allowing it to set and dry on the face overnight will suck out the toxins and leave your skin smooth, soft and clearer. 

Give it a shot before you dismiss it as drivel.

Eat healthier foods<-- This Helps A Lot

Wash yourself gently, but make sure to get all the oils off of your body. Don't use too much soap either.

Enjoy not having giant zits on your back. I know i enjoy it.

the sad part is i just love popping the big ones, watch em' spray across the mirror. lol
