2013-03-20 15:04:40 | Madison - WipeoutI usually don't write any comments about anything. I thought I would share this though because it has worked for me. I have had really bad acne since I was 15 and as an adult it is just time for it to go away! I get big pimples that form really big, hurtful, red balls on my face. It is almost as if I have small cysts on my face. I do have POS, so that is the main reason for my acne. I have recently ordered and started taking an acne supplement called Wipeout. This has done wonders for me, and I am going on my second week of taking the supplement. I have smooth, soft, pimple free skin and I owe it to this pill. I did my research before ordering and felt comfortable trying this product. If you are looking for a fast result, I do recommend this product. This was my last solution before going to the derm, but usually they want to put me on birth control and I will not take Accutane again. Hope this helps any of you that have tried everything! Good luck.

2012-04-25 20:39:09 | Jackie - side-effects- if anyDoes long term use of acne medication pose side effects? I have managed to control my breakout but keep using my gels and creams whenever a zit appears. any suggestion on this?

2012-05-04 10:13:54 | Elsonjackie can you name any med without a side effect? stop worrying, if u r not over using a lotion or gel. acne is a skin condition tht needs to be controlled time to time. there are lot many issues inside our body that trigger the breakout. you need to use good lifestyle habits like exercising daily and eating moderately to get rid of medicines and control those factors. Till then, acne medications are not that bad.

2013-01-22 15:23:44 | Taylor Morales - Meds without side effectsI tried Proactiv, Clean and Clear, everything I found at Wallgreens and Walmart. What I found to help is standard benzoyl peroxide and a pill called Wipeout. Instead of shrinking the glands like Accutane, it stops oil production, stopping the acne. Stuff works wonders. No side effects!

2012-04-02 15:05:52 | ali - old acnei have used minocycline isotretinoin and still i'm facing acne problem.

2012-04-06 07:50:42 | chelsia - minocycline + isotretinoin is a big NOhey ali why r u using both minocycline and isotretinoin together? Use only isotretinoin (accutane) it is very effective to control breakouts. Using minocycline (Tetracycline) along the antibiotic for acne may be very harmful for you. it can have severe side-effects, rather than controlling pimples.

2012-02-20 18:31:43 | Alicia - my own tipsHi I am 30, hv mild occasional acne bt had suffered severe breakout too in my early teens. with time i learnt that acne requires more than treatment. basically it wants you to take a very good care of your skin and stay stress free besides using tons of creams and gels for clearing those zits. Recently i have added probiotics to my daily diet and noticed clearer skin. It helps me stay clean from inside and that helps my acne too. Yogurt is a natural source of probiotics and every one should consume it to steer clear acne. I use some natural packs such as fuller earth's pack and apple cider vinegar as well. These work fine, but do not miss your medines. Whatever u use benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, sulfur, adapalene, clindamycin or erythromycin make note of few things. As treatment works, your skin would become sensitive. So don't expose to direct sunlight. Do not use make up, facials or chemical peels. I use AHA packs often though and these help me get better skin tone. let the t...

2012-03-13 06:45:54 | Betty - Probiotics- Run for antibiotics!Thanks for probiotics suggestion! I think this shall be right addition to my diet. I have been on accutane and topcial acne antibiotics for more than an year. My docy used combos of several medicines in my treatment. I have a confident, clear skin today, but with weaker immunity. I cant guess if it has anything to do with acne treatment. probiotics shall do some good.

2012-03-24 03:31:30 | Tootie - questionsI am 23 yrs old, I have acne since my teens, I am still having occasional breakouts. I may have few to many breakouts and am taking minocycline daily, and still have breakouts. I clean my face every night with antibacterial soap and put epiduo jell on pimples as well. I wear mineral powder make-up. I see the dermatologist and did not know if you had any helpful tips.

2012-02-16 18:09:22 | ParHHi, I have acne since 13 years old,its been 8 yaers now.I have treated them vt medicines and using acne cleansers,but I end up having very dry cheeks leading to wrinkled face..what should I do??

2012-02-09 09:21:45 | Betty J. T - treating acne and scarsDo not touch active zits. They may retaliate and leave even darker spots. Let them heal first. Later on when your skin is cured, use advanced methods like laser resurfacing to get rid of marks. Also, most scar treatments usually take a couple of months to fade away those blemishes. its worth waiting and treat acne first. I have used mederma and zenmed cream for my scars, they both work fine.
P.S I successfully cured my acne and marks. I do not have any new pimple from past 6 months

2012-02-05 12:06:20 | percycan i try scar treatments while i have active zits? I had too many acne on my cheeks. They are moderately cured now. But dark marks look too bad and I want to get rid of them too.

2012-01-29 17:34:08 | ClarkYou need to be patient with acne. They come and go as hormones in your body keep fluctuating. I have a 3 step formula for my acne- keep your skin clean always(use mild cleansers only); use oral medicine and cream for acne when u have active zits(adapalene+clindamycin gel); eat diet rich in vitamins and low in fats. THIS HELPS.

2012-01-24 10:45:45 | Sharon Sears - Kindly advice for acne treatmentHi. I am 17 and have just got my first skin breakout. I have small red zits making a full circle on my right cheek. They are painful and itchy and I just could not help but touch my pimples all the day. Shall I try some of acne home remedies given here or try using 0.025% Retin-A cream and doxycycline myself? One of my friends showed improved skin with these medicines. Or, I can simply try both at the same time? Kindly advice.

2012-02-03 10:51:26 | LucyUse any of the treatments available OTC as these are first line of defense against acne. I would suggest you a gel based Benzoyl peroxide. It works on all types of zits. Use a gentle acne moisturizer to counter the drying effects of BP however. All the best.

2012-01-12 17:18:44 | Cathy - Acne TreatmentI have known acne for 15 yrs. My teen acne cleared up wid hormonal therapy and acne antibiotic. But after my 2 babies, zits again flared up all over my face. I would use alternative and natural treatments suggested here
I would continue using my cleanser and acne cream. I had forgotten them. 
This must help. So glad I found so many acne treatments at one place! Thanks.
