I haven't been on here in a long time. I was taking Minocycline for about a year and it worked wonderfully... until it didn't anymore. My face broke out worse than it ever has before and I was miserable. I tried BP again, I pulled out every trick I had in my book. Nothing worked. I think I have FINALLY found the answer though: ozonated olive oil. It is exactly what it sounds like, olive oil infused with ozone. My mother suggested it to me because she has spider veins on her legs. She's been using it for about a month and they are almost completely gone. I kept refusing to try it. Oil? On my face? Not a chance. I break out soooo easily. I have blackheads, whiteheads and cysts. I finally got disgusted looking into the mirror and decided to try some of this stuff. It freaking works! I have been using it for 4 days now (mind you, I had at least 30 active spots and a lot more that were healing) and they are all almost completely gone. My face is a little dry and it peels a little bit but that might be because I'm also using that PanOxyl soap... I don't know. All I know is that I hounded this website looking for the answer and now that I have found it I thought I would share it with you. I don't know if it will work for you personally but I could almost cry right now I'm so happy. I went out in public... in the sun! without cringing every time someone looked in my general direction. I know this is working for me and I really, really hope it will work for whoever reads this. I would try it on a patch of skin first... allergic reactions and whatnot. I think I paid $30 for mine so it was no big deal if it didn't work. I found mine on amazon.com. Ummmm.... that's all I guess. Just wanted to spread the awesomeness that I am feeling right now!
Not so crazy a suggestion!
My niece, who is more than 30 years old, recently had a bout with acne, living with it for about a year. I'm sure her frustration with it only stressed her out more and aggravated it.I had been telling her to use antibacterial soap on her skin in the morning, only rinsing it lightly. To no avail, according to her.
A few months ago, she showed up, noticeably improved (it was almost absent from her skin), saying it was due to her use of organic, fully ozonated extra virgin olive oil ( a mourhtful), which she bought off of Craigslist, no less!
I'd never heard of it and researching it found it to have antibacterial qualities as well as being an emollient. I guess that latter quality was what was missing from the antibacterial soap.
Recently, a friend's daughter has begun having acne and I was here, looking for some corroborating anecdotes to put to him. I really think he should try it!
Google Oil CLeansing Method, it worked wonders for me until i broke out. Turns out I was using the wrong kind of oil. Research and find the right oil for you. Each person is different so products may give you a different reaction. The oil that broke me out was Grapeseed oil.
Now the oil I use is good old cheap sunflower oil.
If you break out the next 3 days after using the oil then stop just stop, no such thing as "purging" period.
