What is the best acne treatment?

I%26#039;m a teenager and I%26#039;ve been suffering acne for a few years now. First I tried Stridex and that didn%26#039;t work. Then I started using Proactiv and that worked for me, but not 100%. I tried other products, such is Clean and Clear Ultra and that gave me a lot of the little blemishes on my forehead, so I went back to Proactiv and my forehead cleared up. I used that for a couple of years but I still wanted to get 100% clear skin, so I tried things like Skintactix, which worked for a couple weeks. Then, I tried Murad, which made me break out a lot. I then recently went back to Proactive again, my forehead cleared up, but now I have so many breakouts around my jawline. Ughhhh :(|||It is important to keep spot-prone areas clean, so wash the affected area twice a day with a perfume-free cleanser. Do bear in mind that the skin needs a certain amount of oil to maintain its natural condition. Therefore, avoid washing your face many times, that too, with a strong soap. I would recommend Cetaphil and Neutrogena face washes as they are mild and good for cleaning acne-affected skin.


Tea tree oil is considered to be a good anti-acne agent. Sandalwood paste and Fuller鈥檚 earth (multani mitti) are also used by some to dry out the excessive oil.

It really depends on what causes your acne though, mine is caused by hormone imbalances.





See your doctor, or a dermatologist and they should be able to recommend something that is right for your skin.|||PROACTIVE! :)|||my mom works for nu skin and I have a galvanic spa system...lets just say gone in about 2 weeks....but pricey...but worth every cent|||Acne in your teens is normal dude. However, not everyone gets acne, and that sucks because you feel like your the only one. The best treatment (and it really worked for me.. My skin is clear now).. is Retin-A. It is expensive about $100... but if you have insurance it should be cheap $20 ... ask your doctor to try it.. see if you can get the generic form Tretinoin $10...which does an awesome job too. if you live near Mexico it is really cheap there. Also wash your face with Aveeno Oatmeal Moisturizer bar regularly... $3 or so at target. and use a little lotion (the kind that does not clog pores..) to keep your skin from drying out.|||All of these answers sound good. But having acne for the better part of my life made me realize that you have to find what works for you. Things work on people different ways. Take proactiv for example. It worked for those people that had testimonials but it didn%26#039;t work for me. I tried it for a year and progress at first but other treatments worked better.. So my advice to you is to use trial and error. I would say try a product out for at least 3 months or longer to give it time to work and see if you have made any progress. If not then try another. Hope that helps
