monicah 0 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Hi! I've been on the regimen for almost two months now and my back is clear (yay!!), but I get more acne on my face than I used to before the regimen! Is that normal? I used to only get a few cysts on my cheeks. I've applied bp on those areas to prevent them from forming, but now I get more of them and very often! I also get cysts on my chin. Do you think it will stop soon? Is it normal? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RoRo26 0 Share Posted June 23, 2004 how much bp are you using on your face? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
monicah 0 Author Share Posted June 23, 2004 Not much, maybe half a finger. I don't treat my entire face, only where I usually get the cysts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hoku 0 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I know that in Dan's regimen, he says to apply BP only where you get acne; but I find that acne has a tendency to "migrate" on my face, so I actually use BP all over, just in case. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mischief2 1 Share Posted June 24, 2004 I tend to apply most of the BP to acne prone areas but at night I add a very small amount to everywhere else on my face. I find it keeps those spots from migrating too. Missy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dan 571 Share Posted June 24, 2004 I would go ahead and do the regimen as outlined, which means a full finger, and all over. The regimen is more prevention than anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
monicah 0 Author Share Posted June 24, 2004 I forgot to add in my reply up there that I use 5% bp (that's the only one I can get here). Should I still use a full finger? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
