Roy N	Wash your face with any kind of soap that isnt moisterizing...do it at least 3 times a day if you can. All the acne medication is totally over-rated...if your face gets really oily during the day, take some face-wipes with you if you can, head to the bathroom and wipe the oil off. Just do your best to keep your face lacking oil! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Denise	This worked for me, but everyone has different skin. I actually stopped washing my face with the facial soap and started just letting warm water run over my face. I wear make up and take a shower every morning. I don't have acne but once a month and after a few days their gone. If I was my face it dries up and I get acne really bad.

Meeshell	Wash your face when you wake up in the morning and before you go to bed at night. Try eating healthy food and lay off of the junk food. Reduce stress and don't pop your pimples. That will leave scars on your face. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

kat	Another medication that has been used for years and has had good results with many people from my generation is an anti-biotic called Tetracycline. Acne usually has to be severe before a doctor will prescribe this and I don't know that they even still do, you might check with your doc, it won't hurt to ask.... Was this answer helpful to you?

Silva	Change your diet! The number 1 cause of acne is dietary indiscretions. Start drinking eight glasses of water a day, Start using a "green" supplement such as "Greens Plus" by orange peel enterprises daily. It is a powder that you mix into juice or water.Make fresh juice in a juicer such as apple and Celery, add the greens and some milled flax-seed and let this be your morning beverage drank on an empty stomach.Just these two changes will make a big difference in you health and complexion which is a reflexion of your health! Once you are feeling better and your skin is improving you can move on to improving your diet in other ways. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

teambargain	Depends on the kind of acne you have: Comedo (whiteheads or blackheads) or papules. The comedo is the basic acne lesion, which is a plugged pore. If the plugged pore stays under the skin, it’s called a closed comedo and forms a white bump or whitehead. Blackheads are comedos that open up and appear blackish on the surface of the skin. This black color is not due to dirt, but because the air reacts with the excess oil. Pustules or pimples. Pustules or pimples are acne lesions that contain pus and are red at the base. Nodules. These are more serious acne lesions. They lodge deeper in the skin, are painful, and can cause scarring. Cysts. Like nodules, these lesions are deep within in the skin, are painful, and are filled with pus, and can cause scarring. There are many treatments for mild acne. Mild acne can consist of whiteheads, blackheads and small pustules. At home, you can wash your face twice per day with warm water and a Gentle cleanser or soap. Your doctor may suggest you also try an over-the-counter lotion or cream. These medicines may make your skin dry if you use them too much. Be sure to follow the directions. If these medicines don’t work, your doctor may prescribe a cream or lotion with Benzoyl Peroxide, resorcinol, Salicylic Acid, or sulfur. Benzoyl Peroxide works to reduce oil made by the glands. Resorcinol, Salicylic Acid, and sulfur help breakdown whiteheads and blackheads. If your acne does not get better after six to eight weeks, talk with your doctor about changing your treatment For more information go here: Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Deana	The best advice I can give you, is to see a dermatoligist. There are many prescription medications on the market, that can really help tremendously. Things you buy over the counter, for the most part, are a waste of money. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
