Curious, do you ever still break out? or are you 100% clear? Have you ever tried to get off the regimen? I'm not doubting your validity, just want to know. java script:bbc_pop()

I'm actually glad you ask those questions. Those are good questions I might add. So long as I'm on the regimen I really never break out. I might once in a blue moon and I mean once in a blue moon I might see one little painless whitehead pop up. I take a cloth wipe it away and its gone. No redness or anything.

The reason why I have a tiny whitehead pop anyways is because I'm only doing the regimen once a day now. So a whitehead every so often doesnt really bother me considering the full blown cystic acne I was getting. If I got something important coming up I will switch back to doing the regimen twice a day. If i stay on the regimen twice a day. I dont even see a small whitehead pop up. I went 12 months using the regimen twice a day never saw even a hint of a whitehead pop up. After 12 months I drop down to once a day. Doing it once a day I might see white heads creap up here and their. But their not painful and they dont really effect my clear apperance. So i find it acceptable by all means. You might ask when I become clear should I drop down to using it once a day. That depends greatly. If your clear and you see that doing it once a day makes unwanted acne start to creep back up then go back to twice a day. If you see that you can keep your acne at bay with just using the reg once a day. Then drop down to once a day. But when starting the reg twice a day is a must.

Yes I once thought I had outgrown acne. So I decided to stop using everything fiber included. My face stayed clear for about a week. I was thinking hey I might have outgrown this. Well low and behold my cystic acne came back in full force. I was like OMG how f***ing stupid could I be. I went right back to the reg. and things slowly started to come back to normal. But those cyst had to run their course. When you havent had cyst in a while. They come back twice as painful. Finally my face got clear again. I vowed not to do that again. One of the cyst I had I remember it was extremely painful. I finally was able to prick the center with a sewing needle. Their was a huge amount of puss that came out. It was instant relief when it drain.

I guess your bottom line question is am I 100% clear. The answer is yes. I don't have any active pimples, cyst, bumps, or red spots.

Let me clarify. Take the oxy bar alpine scent soap. Wet you hands underneath the faucet. Grab the oxy bar soap. With you hands wet start rubbing the oxy bar soap in your hands. So that your hands become covered with the soap. Now lightly put a little just a little water back on your hands to cause the soap to lather up then start massaging the soap thats on your hands onto your face. It should be sorta of a foamy cream texture when massaging it in. Then take a rag and run undercool water to wet it down then squeeze the rag so that its damp but not soaking wet. With your nicely dampy rage wipe the oxy bar soap off. Dont rub just wipe it off.

Then after that grab the oxy chill factor shake the bottle and apply about a finger length maybe more or less depending on your coverage area. You will get to know how much you need to put on as you do the regimen more. Put a finger with of oxy chill factor on your finger. Then use your other hand with your fingers to wipe the stuff off your other fingers and apply it to your face evenly where your acne prone areas are. Sorta massage it in but dont over do the massage. Just get the stuff on is the most important thing. Then walk away from the bathroom let that sit on your face for 10 to 15 minutes. The stuff will harden on your face. Now go back to the bathroom grab a clean rag wet it down with cool water. squeeze the cloth so its damp again. Then wipe the oxy chill factor off. Dont rub it off. Then walk out of the restroom now your down. Dont forget to take the fiber. You do not need to take a shower to rinse the stuff off. Unless its on your back. Even then you can take a dish towel and grab both ends of the towel and wipe it off your back. If you have acne in a area in which its hard to reach. Then I notice just taking the rag with the stuff you wipe off with and swiping the area down with the used stuff helps to control the acne in that area.

I have to admit I'm a little skeptical, as anyone would be. Do you by any chance have any photos you could post? Of what your acne was like before and what your skin is like now?

I might just try this regimen, just to see...since the products are cheap and easy to get.

[john1234]

i will add one thing.

I have been using this regimen for 5 days. And i've been on accutane and fad products/diets before. I'm therefore confident in my ability to judge a good regimen, and this one has been REALLY DIFFERENT from the ones in the past.

This regimen pulled the junk out of all 6 active lesions in my face almost instantly. This regimen just makes everything come up. They are all flat now.

SO far, no new lesions have popped up...not even a comedone.

Smooth sailing from now on? Time will tell.

I have discussed in the past why I dont post photos of myself. Even with eyes black out people still recognize me on the streets and I dont like strangers talking to me. Especially when I dont know them from adam. I have posted a few photos in the past. Which I later withdrew because of the above reasons. I figure I will let the reg do the talking and the visual. Also to be quite honest I have more then proved my self to past posters that I am clear and they stop posting because they became clear themselfs. I had skeptics that couldnt wait to try my reg. and then bad mouth it left and right. It wasnt to long after they tryed it. I never heard another post from them. I'm not selling you anything. These are items you can pick up on your own accord. I'm skeptical of just about anything that promises this and that as well. But see the way I see it if I dont try it. Then I might miss out on something that might just work and if it doesnt then its one more then I can scratch off the list. My regimen is very cheap, cheaper then dans reg by far. The initial startup cost is a little high because your buying allot of what you get in bulk. The plus side being the stuff last such a
d a m n long time. Dans reg took forever to do. My reg is very quick and easy. It takes very little effort and you dont wear the stuff all day.

Congrats. and thank-you Yeah it will make the stuff surface very quickly. You may still get some more acne that might surface. Its hard to tell. This reg will create a huge draw on the face and pull the junk up very quickly. It will keep drawing more and more junk to the surface until the skin is deeply clean and free of acne and cyst.

[john1234]

hey i'm curious. how long have you been using this regimen for bfg?

[bfg9000d]

hey i'm curious. how long have you been using this regimen for bfg?

gosh geez. Atleast 4 years now.

The oxy products I use to use where a little different. Oxy has improved their product line since then so the product names have change slightly still the same baseline product. With the same great results.

[humanmindCONCEPT]

I've been taking 6 of the psyllium fiber pills a day for about a week. I don't really notice too much of a difference in my cystic acne.

I actually just had a breakout today ... just when I thought my scars were healing up and now I have like 10 new pimples.


don't worry I won't give up yet !!

[john1234]

I must emphasize. THE TOPICALS DO THE HEAVY HITTING in this regimen. If you aren't using the recommended products by BFG, i really doubt you'll get the results that I experienced so quickly. The combination of the two oxy products is very unique. I think the fiber is just supportive.

btw, I really don't think tea tree oil is that effective in treating acne, from personal experience. in my skin, it causes really bad irritation.

[john1234]

btw, bfg? did you just replace the raisins???

[Enlightened]

Dan's reg was horrible for my skin. I tried it around a year ago and within a week i Looked i had second degree burns. I was still faithful tho but my husband forced me to stop using it. I'm glad he did. It took me around 6 months to get rid of the hyperpigmentation caused by that reg. Bfg, i recomended your reg to my friend who is getting married in three weeks time and within 5 days her acne is all gone she just has a few marks left which makeup will cover fine. You made a bride-to-be very happy. God bless you.

As john1234 so very well stated. You need to use the topicals as well. The fiber is supportive. The topicals and the fiber are a powerful combination. Taking even one item out can mess up the whole balance of the reg. Not following the reg as listed and leaving items out. I cannot ensure the success of what your doing then. Because your going outside of what I detailed out.

So please keep to the reg. I layed out.

[bfg9000d]

I found the fiber capsules to be much more effective and easier to take, then eating the raisins. Plus I found it to hard as well as almost sickening to the amount of raisins I was eating everyday. I was almost eating bucket loads. To achieve the same effect that the fiber capsules now do a whole lot better at. In essence I have refined it down.

Thank-you and congrats to the bride to be.

Yes Dan's reg is not the answer. Even the toughest of skins would bow down to Dans overpowering reg. Just about every comment on his reg talks about burnt skin, skin stinging, skin hurting, rashes, skin changing tones, skin looking like a crack donut. Their is even a so called break in time. Which the bp will induce huge acne flare ups and cause pimples to hurt more. Yes and when you do finally stop using that joke regimen it takes about 6 months to almost a year to recover from it. It took me almost 8 months to fully recover from it. I had several people ask me if I was ok and needed help.

Your bride to be needs to be careful with starting a new reg like mine. While it doesnt cause acne to worsen. It will draw underlying acne up to the skin. Which will causes a speed up of the impending acne you where going to get within a few days or a week.

The difference between acne worsening on dans reg and acne being drawn up on my reg is. That my reg does not make acne worst. It simply draws it up to the surface. Dan's reg actually induces strong acne flare ups during the break in time in which they are painful and the intense application of BP causes these pimples to become extremely sensitive in which allot of cases they can become cystic in nature and are slow to pop and heal.


Everybody's questions that have been given to me I have met them with straight answers. That is becoming a rareity these days in this forum. Please keep the questions coming and more importantly keep doing the reg.

[JoeyThePhish]

What kind of fiber pills did you buy? I would think taking 6 a day would start to get expensive.

[bfg9000d]

Wal-mart sells their brand of them which is way cheaper then the name brand.

Sams Club has their own brand of them as well which is really cheap.

I think even costco has their brand.


After taking six for a month you can drop down to about 3 or 4 a day. For starters 6 is what you really need. I still take 6 a day myself. 3 or 4 would be ok.

Hmmm. Well I disagree with almost everything you say about DKR. I know a lot of people from this site that have claimed success with it. I wouldn't call it a joke regime either. Its actually a very traditional form of acne control. And I have tried DKR and only had moderate success. One thing I can say is I never even came close to dry, burning, rashing, or irritated skin. I mean the cleanser is gentle, the BP is only 2.5 and your supposed moisturize on top of that. Really I think it would take someone with radically different skin genetics to get hurt by the DKR. Also you have to account for all the people that do regimens the wrong way. Take for example the guy a few posts above who said the 6 fiber capsules a day weren't really helping him. That guy was only a week in and he wasn't even using the whole regimen that you outlined clearly more than once.
Aside from that though I myself have adopted your regimen. I have everything necessary to do it. It sounds like a great way to fight acne. A real conceptual way with the fiber theory and all. I want to thank you for posting and coming back to the forum to educate new members because acne is still very much a modern day problem. There is only one thing different in my regimen; right now I'm taking doxy which was prescribed by my derm. I'll let you know and everyone else how it goes after I run out of my first fiber bottle. Btw my main problem is bacne and its moderate persistant, not cystic. Later
