Acne Feedback: neutrogena body scub does the trick for me…. :]
Acne Feedback: If you go to the dermatologist they can help you more. They probably will give you some pills you take daily. Basically the pills have A LOT of calcium in them. But I would say go to a dermatologist.
Acne Feedback: back off the roids they are known to give bad acme and mood swings
Acne Feedback: Facial acne medicine, also use the Mary Kay for Men brand of acne medication, use noxzema pads, and wash thoroughly in the shower. That is very, VERY effective.
Acne Feedback: try using iodine. assuming your not allergic to it. what it does is dry the skin up thus reducing the oil to almost nothing. instead of trying to pop it, scrub it, or any other harsh way to remove it.
Acne Feedback: Try using proactive on your back or acne medication.
A good wipe of witch hazel and astringent can do the trick too. The trick is to get a back brush and scrub back there. Exfoliate as much as you can back there and rinse your back twice to prevent any oils from accumulating.
Acne Feedback: i heard proactive works well or clearisil
Acne Feedback: try benza clin or mix baking soda w/water
Acne Feedback: Well first, DON’T ITCH IT.
Drink plenty of water.
Use plain moisturizing lotion
Make sure when you shower, YOU’RE WASHING YOUR BACK.
Try to avoid sweating too much, and if you DO sweat, wipe it off right away.
Acne Feedback: Stop using steroids…lol just kidding. Really watch what you are eating and shower daily. Try proactive it might work for the back too, not sure.
Acne Feedback: I would get a TCA peel. It completely stopped my back acne and got rid of my scarring, but its kind of expensive.
