:lol: did you not read any of this thread, he says he's tried all different types of diets, cleansers....they are cysts that leave craters...not a few black heads on his nose or some pimples that pop up now and then.

OPs body is doing it because his age...and possibly a skin condition who knows, but i am 99% confident its not his diet




Don't even bother. That guy literally has no logic and believes EVERY DISEASE OUT THERE known to man can be cured by an all-vegan diet. :lol:

It is hormonal, and for me the best thing was Solodyn. I have never been on Accutane, I was afraid of it because apparently it's so toxic to the liver that the doctor make you take a monthly blood test to make sure your liver is normal. :flowstone:

Check this shit out. It works really good and isn't too expensive.

Topix Benzaderm 10% Wash w/ aloe vera


Contains 10% benzoyl peroxide to deliver proven antibacterial benefits in the treatment of mild to moderate acne. Moisturizing base of pure food-grade aloe vera gel assists in soothing irritated skin. Effective cleansing and moisturizing action in a soap-free base. Formulation is pH balanced and oil-free.




Any 10% benzoyl peroxide wash I recommend really, but it is only specifically for the jawline/neck area. It is too strong for small T-zone acne on your forehead or nose. You should be using a 2.5% salicylic acid for those.

Also OP, I recommend one other thing. Do you have access to a gym that has a steam sauna? If so, go into the steam sauna every single day, or as often as you can. It will really help clear up your skin and shed those dead skin cells that are on your face which clog your pores.

Also, do you consume a lot of dairy by chance? The reason I ask is because I noticed milk and milk products aggravate acne or cause pimples to come out. I think it has something to do with the hormones inside of milk, which some people are sensitive to. Refrain from eating things like ice cream or milk, you can eat stuff like cheese because it's been fermented so the lactose has been broken down.

Haven't done any mushrooms in 25 yrs, but smoke weed daily.

Acne is bacteria clogged in pores! Stress causes huge hormone releases so stressing about said situation worsens the situation. Have you ever had a zit that you just ignored and it went away in 2 days.. compared to one you keep giving attention and it stays for 2 weeks..





my step father believed that stress cause acne, he called them 'worry
bumps', my step father was an illiterate alcoholic that dropped out of
school at 14, couldnt read or write and had the reasoning abilities of
an avocado

stress can factor into things but observation plays a roll as well, if you
keep looking at something and picking at it, sure it will seem to stick
around because you've made yourself aware of it's presence. if you pay it no
heed it may or may not be there, you just happen to notice it on occasion

If you just want to stop caring about your acne, watch some of ths guys videos.

www.youtube.com/user/HumerusFitness

He is on accutane so watch some of his earlier accutane log videos. He talks a lot about how he deals with it. Watching his videos on acne really helped me back when I had it. Plus, we both started accutane at the same time.

I have a pool I could go to that has a steam sauna that I used to go to heaps until we had to move due to flooding.
Probably still can go there it's just further away, I really love them.

It means..... oh nevermind.  Glad you joined the party, this thread just keeps getting better.

Hey did I tell you guys my acne was so bad I even tried urine therapy.  Yep every morning I woke up and pissed in a rag and rubbed it all over my face.  Now that's desperation!  It didn't cure the acne, but it did wonders for my self esteem, and the smell was just lovely.  If I had heard shit therapy worked I probably would have tried that too.




Desperate times call for desperate measures.
To be honest I think I heard that aswell, I tried it once but it was a bit weird and I didn't really see how it would do anything.
How long did you have acne for? You may have mentioned in previous posts but I have a shitty memory. :smile:
Are you being sarcastic when you say it did wonders for your self esteem?

I have minimal acne now. I only breakout when I shave! which pisses me off because it's like okay this hair looks dumb gotta shave and then bam.. a few zits.. fucked up cuz my facial hair doens't come in so I HAVE to shave or look like bieber!




:frown: I get the same I always end up with one or more quite close to my lip when I shave my mo (so I don't usually) but my mustache is not very long as still gotta go through some more of that puberty I guess. makes me look Mexican but I like my mo look

But my chin is like clear now but when I shave I'll end up with a couple I imagine, so it's obviously skin irritation. I only end up with little zits from shaving though. No big cysts so that is algood.

I agree completely! But if we could switch that off I would love it. Just for a couple months anyway. I would be more confident and friendlier.

Yea when accutane and doxycycline didn't do it for me I felt so desperate and deppressed it made me feel more deppressed then accutane did for me.

Although accutane definitely helped get rid of a few spots. It was not all.

And they still came, After I was finished I still got cysts just it was less common. And then a couple weeks ago I got 3 1 on left 2 on right and then another arrived on right jaw line. I really find if I leave them and ignore it it goes away a lot faster and/or is not such a eyesore.

4 years is challenging man, My sister has had it since 15 and she is 19. but it was only the odd spot nothing major.

But I am glad that it's done for you bro!

I am 23 and still get acne.
I find that not popping them at all (except when they get big visible amount of puss because no one wants to see that) is the best way to have them go away.
I use a 3 step cleaner off an on that seems to work when I do use it, but I find myself getting lazy and not using it when my face is clear, which is dumb because soon after the acne comes back.

I use a basic 3 step cleanser like such:

Damn. By the 3rd month my acne was non-existant.

This might sound very weird, but have you tried working in fast food being around oil? It might be a coincidence, but working in fast food cleared me up quite a bit. Then I went on accutane and it annihilated the rest of it.
