Fabric softener may aggravate body acne. I discuss that along with tips on safe alternatives. Here are the links to the body regimens should you need to clear up your body acne: Body Regimen & Back Regimen.
The best SPF solution? Need your input please.
Please watch and add your comments.
Acne.org in the press again! Woohoo!
A story about Kent ran in the Beyond Medicine magazine, which is basically the newsletter for CPMC, a consortium of local Bay Area hospitals and doctors. Somehow I weaseled my way in there 
They printed over 200,000 of them. Pretty cool.
Body acne pages are live
View the body acne pages. Or view the back acne pages. They are hecka comprehensive (to use local San Francisco slang from, like, 3 years ago), but let me know if I left anything out.

Spot treatment update
Quick clarification: I say in the video that it’s OK to use the AHA+ as a nightly moisturizer every night. This is only true for people who have been on the Regimen for at least a month. I do not recommend AHA at the start of the Regimen while your skin is still adjusting to benzoyl peroxide.
Happy MLK day
Hi you guys. I’m takin’ off today for MLK day. See you tomorrow though! -Dan
