I've tried many things for acne. I suppose all have some benefit, but some more than others. List some things that worked for you.

I dont have acne BUT my friends who have had it have all had success with the medication "acutane". It dries your skin though so you have to use a lot of moisturiser.

i don't think any dermatologists even know what they are doing. all they know is how to write rx's.
next time you're at a dermatologist ask them what exactly causes acne. yeah its a little vague...

I got medication and cream from the doctor, and it took the acne right off! including my skin lol. But after that, my skin grew new cells, and all is good.

i just use an over the counter acne spot treatment by clinique...it's a small bottle for about $20 but contains salicylic acid (sp?) which helps dry out spots and then the layer of skin on top peels off...it's great
try a search on any product with salicylic acid...

The general concesus is, if you use acne/spot cream, always use moisturiser. It makes a huge difference.

That causes pimple, acne is not caused by those things.

True.. It's mainly caused by dirt clogging pores because the face is not washed often enough. Over time this produces the inflammatory disease known as acne.

anyone that says acne is caused by lack of hygeine dont know what theyre talkin bout. Acne if a disease, a fucking ginetic disorder man. I have acne that just stopping and starting to heal; i dont get nearly as many fresh pimples as i used to but i am stuck with these horrible purple scars that take ages to heal (good job i have long hair!). Anyways, its good to know other people are suffering to, i was put on antibiotics that didnt do dick, if youre really desperate tho go for accutane...but keep in mind that that stuff can really fuck you up, bad side effects.
