24 Hour Revenge Therapy 0 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Alright, does anybody have any suggestions on how to clear a mild/moderate, painfully persistant case of bacne? I have tried all kinds of things for the past few years, and it is always there. My face has been pretty good as of late, but I just want to know what topicals, suppliments, or ANYTHING you guys are using that might have had some degree of success in clearing up your back. Thanks!PS: I read something on here about epsom salt and water to do the trick a while back.. Anybody know anything about that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Adam 1 Share Posted September 30, 2004 I'm glad its working for you, but Green Tea or the more importantly the active ingredient that you want ECCG, doesnt get asorbed in your GI track. You have get large doeses or a concentrated version to make the slightest difference Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Adam 1 Share Posted October 1, 2004 B/c your one person out of many...it could be something else that has slowed down your bacne not the green tea. Since science says otherwise I lean to that side. Greeen Tea is great, or rather ECCG is really good, but it all depends on what your body is going to absorb. Drinking it will not be enough. The tea is lower in concentration, and your GI tract doesnt break it down effeciently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flutie34 0 Share Posted October 1, 2004 Have you tried any of the body wash's with salicylic acid. Phisoderm and Neutrogena make it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

24 Hour Revenge Therapy 0 Author Share Posted October 2, 2004 Swearing in thread titles is the fucking shit. I love it.A salicylic acid wash hasn't done a whole lot for my back acne. I use it twice a day on my face, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mandiller 0 Share Posted October 2, 2004 I had some back acne but after one month of taking oratane for my face acne my back acne has almost gone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DarkDragoon 14 Share Posted October 2, 2004 It seems like my back acne was a hell of alot easier to clear then my face acne. I guess what did it was my mincoycolin and my Neutrogena Body Clear Body Scrub. I used to have pretty back backne but now its pretty much completely gone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Adam 1 Share Posted October 2, 2004 No opinion is silly....It seems to me that antibiotics work well against back ance, too.I remember a couple of posters saying they used Triclosan (the stuff in antibacterial soap) and it did wonders on their bacne. They also said that they tried ot ont their faces and nothing happened. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
24 Hour Revenge Therapy 0 Author Share Posted October 2, 2004 Well, I am drinking my first mug of green tea right now. I really hope it does something for me. I read at least two or three people say that it has done good things for them. Here goes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
