3 Years on Acne.Org Regime

PHOTOS: I just took these. Im wearing the BP have have a mini breakout (wow... 1-2 pimples is a breakout now lol) I like to update this blog every time I come back to buy more products. I started in June of 2017 and it's now Jan of 2021! I currently ONLY use the BP. I still put a pretty generous amount on my skin, but my skin does not dry out anymore. The one thing that sucks is that the BP bleaches anything I sleep in. So I have a designated pillow cover, only wear white shirts or bra

Expert Advice To Get Rid of Acne Scarring Fast

Your flare up of pimples is finally over, but it has left behind some horrible scarring. Even without picking, acne lesions, notably cysts, may lead to scars resulting from the serious, collagen-damaging swelling with which they are interlinked. Surprisingly, you do not have to deal with the clear indications of a break-out permanently. What Can Lead To Acne? Rays of The Sun The simple truth is that sun light might actually make blemishes seem uglier and can make healing take
Acne Journey

3 years of Acne..and counting

I used to have a clear skin until I turned 22. I thought I was the lucky one in our Acne- ridden family, but no. It didn't skip me, it just took its time. I am 26 now and still battling acne Everything changed since then. Before, I had a very simple skincare routine and often praised by friends and family members about my spotless skin and asked about my skincare routine.. which I didn't really have. Just a simple face wash and that's it.  Fast forward to 3 years, acne is still he

Trying Anything to Keep Hope Alive for Me

Fear

Ever since I was fifteen years old I've been ashamed of my skin, having this disease also made me really focus more on my facial features in general as I was growing into a young adult. And that's when I started noticing how ugly my facial features were even if I didn't have pimples. I started to resent my parents for giving birth to me. It took me almost twenty years to finally understand that I didn't win the genetic lottery. My self-importance doesn't want to accept that I'm inferior because

Accutane journey

2 months after the last accutane pill

I havent upload much in the last months, because my skin was so beautiful. After May i started taking accutane less and less. As you know my dosage was 20 mg per day, but after May my dermatologist advised me to take 20 mg every second day, then every 4 four days, and lastly i took it once a week during the last month. But i am back -.- Today I got my first cystic pimple since i stopped taking accutane. It's a bit frustrating, because i stopped taking accutane only like 2 months ago. B
Microdose Accutane

Microdose accutane forever

I took two courses of 40 mg accutane for 5 months each but acne came back in its nodular and cystic form . So i took 20 mg accutane daily+Azithromycin 500 mg thrice a week and continued this for a month. After that i started taking 20 mg accutane on every 15th day only and things are fine mentally and aesthetically. I am damn sure this will work for other too. These are just my experiences and I'm not responsible for any complications if you do this. So try at your own risk.

Trying Anything to Keep Hope Alive for Me

Once Again

A glance over some of the blogs here and it looks like my blog may be out of place, but acne and acne scarring is the reason for my situation. And I feel that what I want to express would be understood better here than anywhere else, and I've written in other places too just hoping that there's someone out there listening. I guess that's better than what I have now. I hope this isn't depressing for people out there that read the blog section and create their own. And if it is, I'm really sorry,

DKR, Second Time Around

Week 15, Day 6

Hey hey, So, things are looking really good. The last time I had an inflamed pimple was about three weeks ago. The last time I had a CYST was... wow... at least two months ago! DKR really works. Generally my face is really smooth, but two weeks ago I did a Nair treatment on my face and left it on a minute too long, which ended up irritating my face a lot. I think as a result of that, I got a few clogged pores on both sides of my face. I HATE these things because they take a while to go

storytelling ~ the cat

i just wanted to do a little storytelling for you guys, because i know how hard it is to get your mind off of your acne. I also want to use this blog to do something other than whine about myself. I feel better when i write, and if i can make someone else feel better,  by making them laugh, or just by helping them not focus on whatever is making them sad, that would make me feel really happy.   im just going to start talking about some warm memories of mine. most of them were from my c

The Roaccutane Train

FINISHED ROACCUTANE!

WOW, 3 years off Roaccutane. I don't even know how I thought of this blog today  but it just popped into my head and I said I'd come on and have a look and give an update! It's actually crazy reading back over my posts. This was where I felt I could express exactly how I was feeling about my skin with likeminded people. Its very obvious that as my skin got clearer and clearer, I felt I didn't need to blog about it!  It wasn't on my mind as much.   It makes me quite sad readin

DKR, Second Time Around

Week 17, Day 4

Hey hey, Well, my skin is looking really, really good. I have one small zit on the underside of my chin, because I rest my face there a lot. Other than that... pretty much no clogged pores, and definitely no pimples. Things just look so smooth, even, and good. My PIH is also fading, although it is still there. I use AHA every other night; the rest of the time, it’s Dan’s BP with Cetaphil face wash and lotion, twice a day. I haven’t missed an application this whole time, except for one

Pimples and Acne

Home Remedies for Acne

Pimples and acne are every teen’s nightmare. Acne raises its ugly head at the most inopportune time; prom night for example. We are bombarded with advertisements for the treatment of acne, but we know that in reality, there is no quick fix and sometimes wonder if there is any fix at all. It is just one of those rites of passage we feel one must endure; one that would eventually end, hopefully, and bring relief. But teenagers are not the only victims of acne; adults also have to deal w

Quitting Benzoyl Peroxide

Quitting Benzoyl Peroxide

Long story short. Ive never had acne, just the normal pimple here or there. I began a new moisturizer from Target back in 2019 and it slowly broke me out around my chin. The breakouts kept happening even after stopping the moisturizer. Everything i used, kept breaking me out. I didnt know how to stop it, so i went to a dermatologist. She diagnosed me with acne, and prescribed me clindamycin with benzoyl peroxide, as well as acnefree brand face wash. I used this for about 3 months and i was all c
How to Beat The Acne

Beat Acne with Stinging Nettle Tea

Most approaches to acne aim to treat the symptoms rather than address the fundamental root cause of the problem. Stinging nettle tea is a solution which is preventative in nature. Brewed from the leaves of the stinging nettle – urtica dioica in Latin – stinging nettles produce a mild irritant poison, which when treated correctly, can be extremely effective in the treatment of a range of conditions, not least of which is acne. Occurring naturally in the northern hemisphere amongst temperate c

afraid to meet people from the internet for the first time

Afraid to meet friends from the internet

I've always been to have more friends online than in person, and it's a little stressful when you have acne and in the photos they can´t appreciate your acne, or if the person you're talking to you think he notices a lot on appearance or something and you feel that when you're going to meet them in person they're not going to talk to you anymore , when you meet a friend from the internet you feel an adrenaline rush, there comes anxiety, insecurities and the desire to hide... well that's what I f
