Should I stop using my acne treatment?

I've been using Acne Free for a while, and I'm not sure if its getting better or worse. I've been using the treatment on and off, but I'm trying to commit to using it this week, since I really don't have anything to do. I'm black (African American, brown skin) and from the distance, my skin looks okay, but close up, there's a bunch of small brown spots (from where previous acne had been). I'm not sure if the Acne Free is just adding to those spots, or if its gonna slowly make it better. Should I keep using it, or are these signs of breaking out?Should I stop using my acne treatment?
you say that you haven't used it continually -- so for you to truly know what will work/won't work for you, you should start by doing that... and depending on the treatment, it could take a few weeks to a few months to work .... sometimes it is normal to break out a little bit more before your acne clears up, but if you're worried about it, you should go see a dermatologist and perhaps see if s/he would prescribe something for you.





in the meantime, do a few things while you're waiting. find out what kind of skin you have: dry, combination, or oily. make sure whatever you're doing is for your skin type. make sure to use moisturizers even if you have oily skin so your skin doesn't dry out and get even more oily to compensate...don't wash/scrub your face too much, no more than twice a day, for the same reason. if you're embarrased about your scars, you can certainly use power foundation / cover up to hide those. makeup companies these days have special lines for african american skin tones, so you shouldn't have too much trouble finding a good match ....








good luck and i hope this helps!Should I stop using my acne treatment?
If acne free was suggested to you by a dermatologist or skin care professional, I'd use the product as they told you to use it. If not, it might be worth trying out a different skin care product. A facial scrub, and moisturizer are two basic components. As far as the small spots you see up close, they seem like they are the small scars we all get from acne. You can rub vitamin E oil on these daily, or use a little bacitracin at night on them to help minimize and heal them up. Good luck!
If the product is causing more spots, then you need to stop using it. It can lead to major Acne.





If you really want to get rid of your spots use this product

It really helps :-)
OXY works really well for my sister, and she plays ringette, which is like hockey so she sweats alot, but it still works really well for her. If it's really bad acne, I suggest Triple Action.
If it aint serving it's purpose then stop using it, cause it may cause more harm than good.

  • What is the best lifestyle treatment for acne scars?

    Hi, just wanted to know some effective hints on how I can help my acne scars to fade away without having to consult a dermatologist?


    eg. sleeping more, drinking more water etc


    thanks!!What is the best lifestyle treatment for acne scars?
    well, it is best to take Zinc and keep out from the sun, sun causes the darkening of the scars.

    Could you please read my description below regarding my treatment for acne?

    1. Basically i use dalacin t-topical solution on my face before i go to bed and take antibiotic acne tablets (tetrascyl 300) every morning to treat my acn. However today i bought benozly peroxide 2.5 and was wondering if i could use this aswell as using the other two products and if it will be bad using all three or any suggestions?





    2. If i use the benozyl peroxide and antibiotic tablet at night and the topical solution in the morning is this ok and good?Could you please read my description below regarding my treatment for acne?
    You should give tea tree oil a shot. I had mild acne for a while and even tho I washed my face every night I still had acne. So I use tea tree oil and within a week my acne was pretty much gone except for a few spots here and there, which will fade soon too. And this helps with acne scars


    Tea tree oil can be used for any skin type even if you have very sensitive skin. And in that case I would dilute the oil with either water or aloe vera gel, which you can get at any drug store.


    There are only two downsides to tea tree oil and that is is that the smell is pretty strong, and it can dry out your face a little, which can be taken care of by using a moisturizer.


    The oil can be found in any drugstore/grocery store/health store next to the finger nail polish remover.


    I would recommend putting it on at night before you go to sleep.


    If you have any more questions there are many websites about this product, or feel free to ask me.





    Just some more info on it you don鈥檛 have to read this part if you don鈥檛 want


    Tea tree oil is so good for your skin because it has antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties and stimulates the immune system.Could you please read my description below regarding my treatment for acne?
    Honestly, the only thing that has worked for me 100% is laser treatment. I was totally skeptical at first. I had gotten laser treatment every other week for 6 months in 2005. I'm completely %26amp; totally clear ever since. It's amazing. Everything else is crap %26amp; a waste of money. The amount of money I've wasted trying out different products added up to more than the laser. I've gone to a dermatologist who prescribed me Doxicycline pills %26amp; gave me Retin-A which did NOTHING. Proactiv didn't work for me either. I hope you take my advice it's the only thing that works. Whenever I see someone with acne I feel like telling them =(





    Benzoyl peroxide will only dry out your pimples and make them look flaky. Will make it look worse.





    *** Word of advice-those pills you're taking are doing more harm than good. You shouldn't take any of those pills for acne!!! Trust me! ***
    Call your dermatologist for this. The receptionist should be able to get you an answer to your question. I would not just start using it though being that you do have prescriptions already. This may make your face dry out and worse.





    GL
    according to my doc, and from personal experience, using all 3 together is fine... although it's probably best to use different solutions/ creams separately (at different times of day). Hope this is helpful, and good luck
    It might be alright ? Especially if it is drying your face out.





    Only your face will give the best answer if an MD wrote out your instructions check with them though ? Altering steps to any acne system albeit from an MD or the systems from the store is why acne doesn't go away!
    You should use accutane, it is the best way for you about it you can get information from here http://medical-service.notlong.com/?q=accutane%26amp;qid=20090608054136AAfSrol

    Good acne treatment for sensitive skin?

    I am allergic to benzoyl peroxide, and I have been using a Neutrogena rapid spot clear treatment for months now and have been getting no results. What is a good spot treatment that doesn't have benzoyl peroxide in it, but works well?Good acne treatment for sensitive skin?
    Try an aspirin mask with honey or aloe vera gel mixed with it. Aspirin is technically ';salicylic acid'; anyway. Use uncoated aspirin. I have used it once so far, and it has helped a quite bit. Don't use it more than twice a week.Good acne treatment for sensitive skin?
    I recommend you use a organic products that help you with your acne problems stop using harsh synthetic products on your face I recommend to use dermaE .com they have good products for sensitive acne skin they are gentle and they get rid of acne without the unnecessarily chemicals. dermaE.com.
    its not a spot treatment but it works so well and its very mild. Clinique facial soap is the best thing i haver used. Its a bit more pricey then neutregena or clean and clear, but i think its worth it.

    Is Hydrogen Peroxide a good treatment for acne?

    I've been looking online for at-home acne cures, and one treatment I've been seeing a lot is hydrogen peroxide acne treatment. Would that be a good way to treat acne? How would I use it?

    If you want to stick with DIY home treatments, I would suggest Olay Regenerist Microdermabrasion %26amp; Peel System at nights. Then finish off with Olay Daily Regenerating Serum and Night Recovery Moisturizing Treatment. Just because the skin is oily doesn't mean it doesn't need moisture. I found out that products like Proactive series are harsh over time. Now that my skin has changed after pregnancies, the Olay products have been much more helpful at fading out any blemishes and dark spots. Good luck to you!
    Scars are hyperpigmentation of the skin. Go to a spa in your area with good reviews, ask for their website, and also seach them on the web, you can find reviews there. They most likely would have facials and spot treatment, recommeneded from the Esthetician for you. Dermalogica works for me for daily care, and they have spot treatment medicine also. Good luck!
    maybe mederma might help?? it's for reducing the apperance of scars so i dont know why it wouldnt work on acne scars, too!!

    What spot treatment for acne worked for you?

    I have tried Clean %26amp; Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment it didn't work also Mary Kay Acne treatment Gel...and now I have Burt's Bees Herbal Blemish stick and it doesn't do much. But the main thing I would like to know is... what spot treatment works for you and how much it's it and were can i find it? A link would help too. Also what about a Clearasil spot treatment. Does that work?





    Thanks for your help!What spot treatment for acne worked for you?
    Get the Clean %26amp; Clear Persa-Gel 10. You can get it pretty much anywhere, I get mine from Target. It has 10% benzoyl peroxide, which seriously shrinks the pimple almost overnight. I rely heavily on this stuff hahaha. By far, it's the best spot treatment I've tried :) Good luck!





    ps. It's about $4 (?) Something like that.What spot treatment for acne worked for you?
    Ok first thing is the Burt's bees thing works you just need to keep it with you all the time and constantly apply it and when you apply it if it stings its doing its job. And only use the clearasil if you have dry skin because it makes your skin very oily. i am a dermatologist and i would recommend and Olay facial washes they will deeply detox your face and you can find them at your local wall-mart store. I would also recommend a simple hypoallergenic foundation from olay it works like a foundation but at the same time helps eliminate them and still makes you look beautiful. plus it will not make you break out and you can use it anywhere on your face,chest,neck. i recommend this to my patients all the time.
    if you have severe acne, i seriously recommend going to a doctor. it took 2 years for them to find me a cream that worked, after having 5 different ones. the one that worked was a tablet called roaccutane.. its pretty severe, it made me come out in rashes and my lips and skin were RIDICULOUSLY dry.. but seriously, it has worked a dream. my skin now is totally clear, glowing.. amazing. if your skin is really bad, its DEFFO worth it :)
    Clean and Clear advantage stick works great for me. Of course the results aren't instant or overnight but after a couple days my pimples are gone.





    Also, clearasil acne cream works great.


    You might be making your skin break out by using too many different products. Try sticking to one for about a week or two to see results.



    incredibly, plain old toothpaste works well. dab a small amount of it on your pimples before you go to sleep (make sure you wait about 2 minutes to let it dry before laying down). you'll wake up and your acne will have dried up a little.





    this method works after a couple of nights. you won't get any drastic results in one night unfortunately =/
    My mom heard from 2 other people that pansy tea works. At first she had me drink it but later on she started dabbing the (wet) tea bag on my face and it's working. But drinking the tea also worked a bit.

    Best acne treatment for nodules and papules?

    other than the prescription accutane. im looking for something i can get over the counter. thank youBest acne treatment for nodules and papules?
    My dermatologist took one look at me and told me to go on Accutane. I thought about it and decided it was far too risky and just decided that there has to be another way.





    Since I found Proactiv to be completely ineffective,I had almost no faith in the Acne Free skin care system, but I decided to try it anyway. Well, it was amazing. It really has been the only thing that worked for me. I use it only at night since I have sensitive skin. They even have an Acne Free Severe kit and can help you determine which kit you need. I have tried both and honestly feel that the regular kit works great!! It costs less, too. You can get it at Walmart or any drug store.

    Which acne treatment would be best for me?

    OK, so I'm 14 and I have mild acne. I have very dry skin. The acne is usually on my chin and mostly my for head. And I was considering these acne treatment creams. Proactive or Clean and Clear. I am currently using Neutrogena (the orange one) and it doesn't really work for me. And my dermatologist says it's ok for me to switch. So which one would be best for my skin? ThanksWhich acne treatment would be best for me?
    sometimes your overtreating your skin with medications i used 2 do that i started just using a normal antibacterial bar of soap (orange dial) and persagel by clean and clear at night when i broke out and it got way better.Which acne treatment would be best for me?
    I would recommend clean and clear - very effective and can help normally very quickly.
    I've been in that situation and there is really nothing you can do about it. There are things you can do to try to reduce the blemishes and get rid of acne/pimples temporarily but you will always be finding yourself cleaning your face or your body depending on where it's at.





    I mean of course your acne should go away eventually but for some this is the case their whole life.





    I'm 29 years old and have been suffering from these little pests since I was a teenager. I tried all sorts of face washes from the local grocery store and what not, but nothing seemed to work. If anything it would just make my skin dry and itchy.





    Literally the best acne face wash I've ever used has been this stuff called clearpores. It has got rid of the acne to quickest and has been a success ever since I got it. It's unique cause of it's herbal supplement you take a long with it that helps your skin from the inside out. I saved money on it at skincleansingsystem.com at the time which was helpful.





    You should really look into this stuff and if you can to assure the best results, get the 3 month supply because if it doesn't work it will still save you butt on the return policy.





    Well good luck and best wishes.
    Proactive has worked really well for a lot of people I know.
    OTC stuff has NEVER worked for me so i would stop trying. i've tried clean and clear, and proactve and i've seen no results. i've tried almost anything you can find at like walmart and nothing has worked. now i'm on three different medinces that have been prescribed by the dermatologist, i have been on them for only one week and i see results already. the medicine that i am on is, clindamycin phosphate topical solution , tretinoin cream, and doryx and they all work great!

    putting half a lemon in the freezer helps. before going to bed rub it all over your skin and wash it in the morning. lemon juice fades any scars too. u can try different fruits-eg-cucumber..tomato...plain ice also shrinks pores. lemon idea is very effective. using egg white also stops acne when left for 30 min on ur faceGood acne treatment for a woman in late 20's?
    Actually, I would go get your estrogen and testosterones levels checked. Having an outbreak of acne like that is a sign that something has changed chemically in your body. GO see a Doc and ask his or her advice, be sure to tell them it hasn't always bee like this and they will probably know what to do. Otherwise I would say eat more veggies, less fatty foods. Get a Lufa sponge er however that's spelled. use a soft scrubbing soap...but you really need to quit abusing your face with those chemicals.
    well you could use the most powerful acne medicine on the market. it is called Accutane. it contains isotretinoin and is extremely effective when getting rid of acne. I started it last February and stopped in July and my acne is still gone. However, because you are a female it will be more difficult for you to take this because of the side effects.
    well probable need to switch to something else .Try clear.now

    you need to go to a dermatologist and get some medicine. if at home stuff isnt working you need something stronger.
    Acnefree system works well for adult acne. Their pimple peel pack works great too. I heard Murad works on people who have acne after pregnacy, but then again everyone's skin is different.


    I'm sure if you go to dermatologist, they can perscribe you something to help elevate the flareups and worsening skin.
    you should probably try clearasil ultra it does work well for me but try it had the same problem but im only 16 and i was breaking out bad so I used it and it worked so try it hope i helped
    Acne is one of the most distressing and depressing problem. Soak cotton wool in mint juice, and apply every day. Mix cinnamon powder with lime juice to make a fine paste, Apply on the spots and wash when dry .Check out http://useinfo-acne.blogspot.com/ for more useful info.
    ive had the exact same problem this year!!! everything i tried to get rid of my acne made it worse but i discovered an amasing gloop called Sudocrem. its an antiseptic healing cream for ezema,rash,cuts,burns AND ACNE!!! it really works you put it all over your spotty bits before you go to bed and inthe morning you look like a new person!!! its amasing stuff and pretty cheapr at 拢2 for 125 grams!!! it feels nice to put on and smells pretty good too!!

    I doubt that would happen - Keep in mind it takes only a few moments to absorb in to your skin -

    Treatment for newborn acne for a 2 month old?

    What is the best and safest treatment for newborn acne? I am not scrubbing or using harsh abrasives, just warm water and a wash cloth.Treatment for newborn acne for a 2 month old?
    From what I read that is the best thing to do... and dont pick at it... just makes it worse.. it will go away on its own.Treatment for newborn acne for a 2 month old?
    It's hormonal and natural for your newborn to get a breakout. There is not much you can do except cleanse your baby's face gently with a wash cloth and warm water as you described (no soap or baby wash). It will go away on it's own in a few weeks. If you are concerned, call your nurse or baby's pediatrician. Congratulations on your healthy baby!
    I know it sounds way gross but really, the baby's own urine will help clear the acne. Remember the saying ';Smooth as a baby's butt';? Yep it will help you get to the bottom of this. Pun intended. Wipe baby's face and any other affected area with urine diaper wait a few minutes and then wash.





    My grandmother used this on my uncle who had eczema as a baby and it worked! The properties of urine are exfoliating. Truthfully some adults use this method as well to keep a youthful appearance to their face.





    Good Luck to you and your little one.
    I've heard that breastmilk will help - just rub a bit onto the affected areas a few times a day.
    Nothing... it is a hormonal thing- your hormones are still passing through your babies body. This will all clear up on its own. Just use warm water and washcloth/cotton balls. No soap or lotions are necessary.
    My doc suggested washing his with Cetafil. It's a non-soap cleanser.
    Just leave it.
    Time is the best treatment. Nothing else. It's a normal thing that will go away on it's own, trying to get to get rid of it will only make it worse.
    nothing!! leave it alone it will go away.
    Nothing-it will resolve itself in a month or so. My daughter had it awful-it was all over her face. But it's all cleared up now and she's 10 months. It started going away around 3 months.
    warm water+ wash cloth is probably the best thing. I wouldn't use any creams or anything.





    Wait. Hydrocortozone...I'm not sure if that's ok for babies. But it might be a good thing. I'd ask a doctor.

    Go to a dermatologist I thought mine would just go away with some non persciption stuff it didnt. Trust me if you go see a dermatologist everything will be great they are very kind and see bad acne all the time. Rember that some perscriptions wont work as well as you hope so go back and get a new one. I had to get 4 new precptions before getting put on acutane wich after 5 months have never had an acne problem agen.
    Natures Cure...this stuff works great..its a two part treatment..it comes with cream and pills that are desinged to keep ur body in check and clense ur face...its the best acne treatment iv had...it comes for females and males
    see a dermatologist if you haven't already
    If you have tried all of the store bought acne meds and they don't work, consider seeing a dermatologist. There are many prescription strength acne treatments that work better than those you buy in stores.
    I use PeterThomasRoth acne wash with 10% glycolic acid...and it works great :)
    Go acne.org. Are you sure it's acne and not roceaca?
    Try the Murad Acne Free Complex. it works amazing. Ive been on all kinds of different medicines, including accutane and none of them worked. But I got this and I almost immediately saw a difference!! Good Luck

  • After using Acne spot treatment my pimple grew?

    I washed my face and then applied Nuetragena Acne spot treatment to my face where a pimple seemed to be forming. I woke up and a small pimple had formed. When I got home from school I applied it again and when I took it off the pipmle was bigger. Is this suppose to happen? Is it jus because the pimple absorb the product? Should I continue use?After using Acne spot treatment my pimple grew?
    It sounds like the product you used just didn't do anything and the pimple continued growing. You might even be allergic to it?





    I think Neutrogena uses salicylic acid. Try something else. Just look at what the active ingredient is.





    After using Acne spot treatment my pimple grew?
    no i think you used the wrong one! i have an idea. youll need these itme: baking soda and water. then you mix water and bakign soda together until it makes fair paste texture. wash where acne is first... then you apply.. wait 15 mins of when it finaly dries away on it own. then rinse where the acne is. continue this daily until you get results. i have a nother way.. get a sport that will make you sweat(not golf itsnot active enough) like basketball... and you have to sweat because you need that oil on your face. then rinse your facewith water (any temperature) option%26gt; apply soap for best results. wash your face with water/rinse again and dry ur face .. continue the prcess daily and it will naturally .. days later.. ur skin will look smoother.





    plz answer my question.. im relly upset wat happened today%26gt; http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>
    Oh, you've screwed up. You have used the Nuetragena Acne Fertilizer formula. It's going to get huge!
    acne ruins your life, get accutane:) unless you only get occasional acne
    it probably did that because it


    was bringing the puss up to


    the surface of the skin.


    THAT IS GOOD.
    Lots of times pimples have to reach their full potential before they get better. Usually the best course of action is to leave it alone, because chemical irritation increases acne.

    Clean %26amp; Clear Maximum Strength Invisible Blemish Treatment works WONDERS! Trust me. I get an occasional nasty huge red pimple at that time of the month and this shrinks them in size overnight and they're gone within two days. It's pretty strong so don't use it too much, just on the occasional zit. It also goes on clear so you can put makeup on top of it if you need to. God, it's greatest invention ever.

    Acne and Pimples





    Here are a few tips that I found on the net that may help.





    1. Try to wear makeup that is not oily pr oil based as this can cause a bad problem with acne flare up. I may mention this more than once but remember to stop squeezing your pimples as this will cause scarring and is totally unnecessary.





    2. Another really effective way to stop pimples is to place an ice pack on the infected area every twenty minutes or so and hold it down for a prolonged period of time once an hour until you see a change.





    3. If you are absolutely desperate and have no other choice because nothing else is working then I suggest using a concealor as this will provide a temporary fix to the problem area.





    4. An old fashioned method of stopping pimples is to simply place a little tooth paste on the area and watch it dry right up. This will also help you at night so as to place a dab of your favorite tooth paste on the infected area and in the morning it should be greatly reduced if not gone all together.





    5. Do not squeeze or pick at a pimple, as this will only cause it to get worse. Try good old fashioned, natural soap on a regular basis in addition to the things that have already been mentioned.





    The following suggestion on how to stop squeezing your pimples and treat your acne infected area are a start in good overall facial hygiene and care.





    Here's a really great article on this website how one Guy cleared his face up in 3 days. -- http://bit.ly/12J0Qe
    I've been in that situation and there is really nothing you can do about it. There are things you can do to try to reduce the blemishes and get rid of acne/pimples temporarily but you will always be finding yourself cleaning your face or your body depending on where it's at.





    I mean of course your acne should go away eventually but for some this is the case their whole life.





    I'm 29 years old and have been suffering from these little pests since I was a teenager. I tried all sorts of face washes from the local grocery store and what not, but nothing seemed to work. If anything it would just make my skin dry and itchy.





    Literally the best acne face wash I've ever used has been this stuff called clearpores. It has got rid of the acne to quickest and has been a success ever since I got it. It's unique cause of it's herbal supplement you take a long with it that helps your skin from the inside out. I saved money on it at skincleansingsystem.com at the time which was helpful.





    You should really look into this stuff and if you can to assure the best results, get the 3 month supply because if it doesn't work it will still save you butt on the return policy.





    Well good luck and best wishes.
    i used to have a huge acne problem when i was in college. it got really bad during times of stress, like around exam times. i found that the major reason for my breakouts was stress and poor nutrition.





    the best thing you can do to prevent acne, is to drink lots and lots of water. tap water is the best. it detoxifies your system. fruits also help a lot; especially citrus fruits.





    don't go for soaps or cleansing agents that claim to get rid of your acne. they just dry up your skin. excess oils may cause acne but your skin still needs the oils. don't over wash either for the same reason.





    i tried a lot of products from the internet because i was desperate for an acne-free face, since i was in college. the girls just didn't dig it. nothing worked as well and as fast as Acnezine.


    here's the link to their site


    http://www.acnezine.com/?aid=155535





    i saw the effects in a week. i was so relieved that i found this product. it just turned my social life around. it not only cured the acne i had but also removed blemishes. i still use it during stressful times to prevent future breakouts. i highly recommend it
    Go to your doctor, they can prescribe something, at least mine could. It has been about two weeks and my acne is almost clear. If you have insurance it's probably not gonna cost you anything. And for scars I would try mederma.
