Acne.org Products
Hi I'm just over 8 weeks into the regimen and started using the AHA product about 4 weeks in. I'm breaking out still with 3/4 spots each week, when will this stop! I feel like giving up on the BP because I feel like it's constantly making all the spots come to surface.
The AHA is great and have had compliments on how smooth my skin looks (with makeup) but without makeup I've still got dark marks from previous spots which makes me feel insecure about wearing no makeup. How long does it take for the AHA to get rid of marks completely.
Hi HappyRhyme,
I'm sorry to hear about your skin.
Our best advice is to use The Regimen products. They will get you completely clear and will make your skin look nice and even toned and non-inflamed. Thats whats most important in order to prevent future hyperpigmentation and scarring. Make sure you use them diligently and you will get completely clear.
However, the hyperpigmentation itself can take several months or longer to fade. To speed this process you can add Acne.org AHA+ which will help increase skin cell turnover and allow your acne marks to fade faster. But nothing will help hyperpigmentation fade extremely quickly. Its only time that can do that. Remember that hyperpigmentation are not scars, however, and will fade with time.
Many people are making common mistakes. Take this questionnaire to be sure you're on track just right:

Also keep in mind that many people take 3-4 months to get clear. We have received literally hundreds of success stories over the years from people who have said they are so glad they stuck it. Stay patient and you will clear up.
