I have tried nearly everything: Proactiv, antibiotics, shots to the face, over the counter creams, and just about everything. My acne goes away and then comes back. Not only that but it leaves scars behind as well as brown dots where the zits were. Can anyone suggest anything for acne, the scars, and the brown marks?

have had acne for years. My face is oily, and not only do I have acne on my face but on my lower back, shoulders, and butt too. What is the best acne cleanser for my face and body that isn’t too expensive?

I’ve tried so many acne products, including proactive, tea tree oil, spectro gel, neutrogena, home remedies, and nothing could get rid of my acne. I then took accutane, which cures acne, and it worked, but a year later it came back so I took it a second time. Now it’s a year later after my second time using accutane, and my face is getting horrible again (you can’t take Accutane more than 2 times). What can I do?

Like, I’ve never had an acne problem. Never more than a pimple or two on my face, for which I am very glad. And I’m 16! But then I see some guys at school with their face covered in pimples. And most people just fall in between, with enough pimples on their face. What determines how bad your acne is? I know it has to do with hormones and puberty, but do your hormones directly influence the level of acne?
Oh yes I do consider myself lucky, I keep wondering when my luck will run out!

I have used many face washes that are supposed to clear acne, I use the whole bottle of that and then it never clears the acne. Anyone have any things that they use to clear their acne?

I break out on my forehead alot. Does oil make you breakout? My skin gets pretty oily by the afternoon. What acne cleanswer would work well and reduce the oil? Thanks!

What brand should I use that isn’t too expensive but still works? I’ve tried Acne Free, Clearasil, and Neutrogena. What should I do about acne scars and blemishes? Homemade remedies are also fine.

I got a tattoo in September 2008, so it has been several months since. However, i have recently discovered acne forming in and around my tattoo. The tattoo is on my left shoulder blade, and it is in a spot where i dont normally get acne. How do i get rid of this acne problem without harming the tattoo itself, and why is this happening?

I am looking for an over the counter acne product that will work to an effect that will peel away a thin top layer of skin, something of the sort of chemical peel or Microdermabrasion, if not what product is recommended that will peel away dead skin on face and body.
