Do any of you guys deal with acne? Like body acne? I have really bad back acne and its messing up my life. Cant even use anything that shows my back. I feel i have intimacy issues as well besides the dark marks thats also left behind.
Ive been on retinols but it didnt cure.
Hey there, I totally feel you! I had a terrible acne problem when I was younger, and it was a real confidence killer. I even had to miss some events because I didn't want anyone to see my face. It took me a while to figure out what worked for me, but I eventually discovered Affordable Aesthetic Clinic in Singapore. They have some great anti-acne treatments that worked wonders for me. I was really impressed with the results, and the staff was super helpful and friendly. Definitely recommend checking them out if you're in the area. Don't worry, you're not alone, and there are definitely solutions out there!
So I'm definitely not going to go on any oral meds because I have permanent dry chapped lips from oratane.
I will try some of your guys creams and washes. As for my acne marks, I've read this article does benzac ac 5 gel remove spots. I have the wash so will get the gel.
Thanks guys!
It depends on the cause. In addition to those things already mentioned, if it's hormonal acne due time of life changes or increased testosterone, washing with Ketanozole will help (it's an old weight-lifters trick). The prescription dosage is 2% but you can get it over the counter in Nizoral shampoo in 1% strength. Low doses of spironolactone (100-200mg) will help hormonal acne.
Not hormonal unfortunately ,I also tried shampoo
And now you're going to tell us about something that worked really well for you, right?
Nope,still suffering
@MariahC I'm awfully sorry you're having such a hard time with this. Are doctors not able to treat acne successfully? I think my own resolved with age.
@LovinLarge just oratane didn't cure it also gave me permanent side effects
@MariahC Have you seen a dermatologist?
