Hi All:

I am 22, and i need your help. I have very oily skin. For 9 years, I suffered with acne. At this point, I am almost ready to give up permanently on my skin...after all, nothing works. I used all medications and creams--ive been to countless drs. Right now, I am using a face mask that consists of Aztec Healing Clay, Turmeric spice, and Apple Cider vinegar. I am also taking two tablespoons of ACV orally daily. Attached are my pictures. What do you recommend me do? I am very, very desperate and self-conscious. 

Anything can help! Please help me.

Love,
Your Fellow Sufferer

Have you ever heard about herbal medicine? My acne during the summer was SUPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEERRRRR HORRIBLEEEEEEE! WAY MORE THAN YOU! I took the herbal medicine for a month then slowly all my acne subsided on its own. Now my face is healing and only like 2 pimples or so and my scar and redness is slowly healing also.

If you haven't tried the acne.org regimen on this website, try it! It worked wonders for my son's skin. Took his skin to a new level of clearing that his derm prescribed RXs couldn't do. Please try it. Start slow to avoid the initial side effects. My son only used the BP at night and didn't add the AHA lotion until over a month and still mixes the AHA lotion 1:1 with Cetaphil lotion. He also cut out 80% of his dairy. No way to get him to give up milk 100%.

He also tried Aztec Clay. Its great and helped with the clearing. It will cause purging but eventually that stops. He hasn't used the clay since he started the acne.org regimen but will probably still use it occasionally because it leaves the skin feeling great and seems to help with scarring/PHI.

Good luck and don't give up. You will get a lot of great advice on this org. Just keep going until you find what works.

Try the acne.org regimen! Jeez you are such a handsome man and I'm sure that you will look even better once you have your acne under control. I'm currently on the regimen. It's been almost three weeks. I have mild to severe acne, and people on this forum said that the results would normally show in about two months. For me, it was only two weeks. My face has become much clearer now. Of course I'm dealing with dryness and flakes and occasionally redness, but they should all be gone soon. Anyway, try it! I am a chemistry student and everything they said about benzoyl peroxide was true, at least in a chemical sense.

Do not lose hope!

Thanks for getting back to me, I greatly appreciate it!

Im too scared to try accutane. I've tried monocycline, doxycycline, etc -- worked amazing for the first two months. It was so clear and then it wasn't.

so, I've tried the acne.org regime. It worked wonders in the beginning, but then, like everything I've tried, my face got so used to it - I would breakout it I followed the regime! It was that bad. I used all the bp %s.

I'm not that familiar with herbal medicine. Which did you use?

And thanks for that compliment! 🙂 so nice of you.

Try Tactupump/Epiduo workers wonders on different kinds of acnes.. You may get some dry skin for a couple weeks but better than the acne. You need a prescription but you can just ask your doctor for it and it should be no problem.
