What's the best acne treatment?

[anime-kiss]

a lot of people advertise acne creams but what do you think works best?

[NExPats12]

I thoughts acne creams were definitely going to be easy to shop for! Wrong! I usually get them around the time of month and from make-up, but honestly I got rid of the acne creams. Clean your face with ⭐️St. Ives apricot face scrub (blemish control)🙌 rinse well with warm water, you want to open up your pores. Now the secret that saves me honestly and truly, I do it everyday. Get a spray bottle (not a squirt one that streams water) mix a good amount of SEA salt (NOT a Crazy amount/try to use a small to medium spray bottle) and warm water together. Spray all over face keep on till dry, wash off (I keep it on overnight). Bam they dry up, kills bacteria, and prevents them from forming.

Salt is a natural bacteria killer, so when mixing with warm water and the salt (fully dissolved) dab a tince on your finger and try it if it's way way way to salty add more water, and less salty add a bit more.

HOPE THIS HELPS! Goodluck. :)

You may add a little lemon juice too to "umphf" it. I use the lemon juice and a bit of salt to make like a little paste and use it as a zit zapper, started drying my skin out so lemon can get harsh with the salt. As it drys it will be an itchy tiny burning sensation, but don't worry doesn't last for long! :)

I have bad acne. I've tried everything!!! Creams and crap. I've put so much of the cream on it peeled te skin off my face. The best thing to do is get on Accutane. I'm getting on it in a month. And I'm going to stay on it for 5 months and it sposed to get rid of acne forever. I'm not joking. Google it and u will find out everything u need to know and talk to your dr. About it.

Try it my mom said when she was a kid everyone got on it and they all of clear skin right after they finished taking it.

If ur not sure about it message me in a month about it and I'll tell u how I'm doing.

If you have a problem with excessive oil production I use salicylic acid, Walmart brand. I used it initially for oil control and I've noticed less oil buildup. A few weeks ago I started to get a bump for a reoccurring acne spot but it never blew up into a disgusting to look at red dot. Actually since I've switched to salicylic acid I've hardly gotten small acne outbreaks.

[Seduciary]

If you're willing to put up with chapped lips and possible nose bleeds, Accutane is most definitely the most "effective" acne treatment, though the "best" acne treatment can be interpreted differently from person to person.

[Random_chick_2384]

Im getting on accutane in a month can u tell me ur experience with it.

[Seduciary]

The only side effects I've experienced, were dry chapped lips and occasional nose bleeds, due to accutane's extreme drying effect on the skin. High cholesterol count is another possible side effect. However, like all powerful medications, there's a list of contradictions.

As to how it performs; the effects are noticeable anywhere from 2-4 weeks. Sometimes, there's a time period where it actually seems to get worse (usually lasts around 2 weeks for me), until it kicks in and totally obliterates the acne, regardless of its severity, in a quick and effective fashion not seen by mere bacteria-based medications like Tetracycline.

How bad did it hurt?

[Seduciary]

No pain at all. My dermatologist gave me an ointment for the dry lips and nostrils, and that was pretty much it.

[Random_chick_2384]

Ok thanks!!

yogurt and lemon. before you sleep, you should apply a lemon to your face. thus your face doesn't corrugation
and acne disappear. you can add little honey.

[aamy811]

I don't think there's any notable product for me because all my acne is hormonal. So for me eating vegan is what keeps my skin clear. But everyone's skin is different

[Drooogie4]

For me.. It was Acutane.
But mine was like, chronic and super bad.
That stuff is rough to be on but it worked like magic.

[Random_chick_2384]

Ok I'm getting on acutaine next month. I've already have my stuff filled out. Can u tell me ur experience with it.

[Drooogie4]

@Random_chick_2384
I had to get blood tests once a month.
Your skin is really fragile and dry, I got a lot of muscle cramps, you sunburn super easy so be careful.
So just be extra careful for the 5 or 6 months.
It was so so worth it though.

[Random_chick_2384]

Like how bad is ur skin. I heard it flakes a lot. And how bad does it hurt.

[Drooogie4]

The skin does flake a lot. Be prepared to use a lot of dandruff shampoo. And lots of lotion. Oh, and you won't sweat really when you're on it (because it shrinks your oil glands)
And cramping wise, it wasn't violent or anything.. You just don't feel really good or energetic. That's all.
But it kills the acne, and erases some scarring. I was on it 4 years ago and my skin is still great.

@Random_chick_2384

[Random_chick_2384]

Have u had acne since or was it completely clear since it. And I heard it gets u depressed does it? And I do gymnastics could I still do it?

[Random_chick_2384]

And as flakes r they like a ton all over ur face or like cucks that just fall off? And do they hurt?

[Drooogie4]

My only flakes were on my head. The rest of you just gets dry. And no that doesn't hurt if you stay moisturized.
And I've been off of the meds since then. And I've been clear. I get occasional tiny breakouts everyone once in a while. But my skin is perfectly clear about 95% of the time and it's easily covered blemishes.
And depressed? I wasn't.
Also, they're gonna be crazy about you filling out a birth control thing, swearing to not get pregnant on it haha.
@Random_chick_2384

[Random_chick_2384]

Yes the guy was telling me DO NOT GET PREGNANT lol. I asked a question about this. And thanks sooo much!

[Random_chick_2384]

Did U have hair loss. I love my hair and I don't want it to get thin.

[Drooogie4]

Yeah super serious birth defects are possible.
And I didn't loose any hair.. The rest of me was fine. Just dry skin, flaky scalp. Sunburns, easily tearable skin and muscle cramps (mostly in my back)
Your hair gets dry too.
To this day, my hair and skin tend to be more dry than oily, which can be kinda annoying, but so is being extra oily.. Instead of having to wash my hair everyday and blot my face throughout the day, I'll give my hair every other day and a good condition, and extra moisture to your face in the morning. (During and post meds).
But it's a great great thing to have a clear, confident face.
