I Have Acne

I have had acne since I was twelve and nothing I've tried works. Any suggestions? Any products you'd recommend?

I had it on the top of my bald head.
Doxycycline Monohydrate took care of it immediately.

Ask the doc about tetracyclines (antibiotics specific to acne) & see if you can get on with benzoyl peroxide (you can buy this cream on eBay) 馃槉

@Brandon101 Oh right, well I just researched that & apparently, there is an alternative treatment for people who find the peroxide too irritating - it's called Azelaic Acid

@Brandon101 YW hun, good luck with finding a remedy & remember, other people don't notice these things half as much as we think they do 馃槝

Try seeing a dermatologist, sometimes they'll be able to recommend you a generic medication that's pretty affordable instead of the high dollar name brands. Adapalene 0.1% gel is what is used for acne and scars and it's only $20 at Wal-Mart
Try to lower your stress, eat better, drink lots of water, wash your face with an astringent soap multiple times a day and see a dermatologist if it persists

I'm sorry. I'm struggling with it myself right now. I don't know what would work for guys. Women can help themselves with combined contraceptive pills.
oddly, i have seen Triple Antibiotic, like you put on a cut? work for some

@plaguewatcher ok thanks

I'm sorry to hear that, I know it's probably not much reassurance right now, but my son grew out of it
