I’ve had a problem with acne since I was 14 and am beginning to get a little depressed about the fact that it might never go away. My dermatologist doesn’t categorize my skin type as “mild acne” with whiteheads and the normal pimple. I have some scarring on my cheeks and rarely seem to break out on my forehead and nose. I mostly break out on my chin and inner cheeks, when I break out it tends to be those irritating pimples that hurt when you touch them. I’ve honestly tried everything, proactive, prescriptions drugs, over the counter, some natural things, light treatments, microdermabrasion, and the list goes on. I’m sick and tired of wasting hundreds of dollars on crap products that do NOTHING for me. I will pay top dollar for products or treatments if I have strong feelings that it’ll work but nothing seems to work for me.
Please help me, I’m pretty healthy too, I drink a lot of water, I’l admit I don’t eat that much fruit and vegetables though, I do eat lots of pasta!
Thank you

The best way in treating pimples and acne is to use benzoyl peroxide 5% gel (available at your local drug store) to the involved areas at night and NeoStrata alpha hydroxyacid in the morning (without using prescription medication). Some people are allergic to benzoyl peroxide. A product named Tend Skin is an effective acne treatment. Another advice is to wash your face twice a day with a mild non-soap cleanser. Do not pick or squeeze your pimples, as it can leave scars. Acne surgery can be done using sterile instruments to remove blackheads, whiteheads, and pimples.

I completely understand your frustration. I have suffered (rather, used to suffer) with acne since my teens (I’m 22). I stumbled across acne.org last year and I SWEAR, it works. My skin is proof. You don’t have to buy anything, it just recommends basic, cheap over-the-counter products that really work. In the past, I probably spent thousands of dollars on my skin. Now, my supplies are probably less than $50 a year since I started following “the regimen” recommended on the site. If you follow the steps to a tee, it will probably work for you as it did for me. Good luck!
