I've had acne since I was 15 years old and have been prescribed various forms of BP cream. I used to use the PanOxyl 5 Aquagel in the UK but that got discontinued, so started using Acne.org BP about 4 years ago. My skin was perfect, and even incorporated AHA+ to reduce the PIH.
My skin was destroyed after over exfoliation and no sunscreen, it was peeling and red and rashy, and I was prescribed stupidly by my silly GP hydrocortisone, as I didn't realise it was over exfoliation and the GP thought it was a rash. Anyhow after using it for 2 weeks, and no BP and AHA+ use, my skin slowly healed. Though my acne came back. With a vengence. It's been 2 years I've gone back to my usual regime with BP and it's just not working. Its been working for nearly a decade but now, my acne is still really bad. One would heal, 3 more cystic pimples would pop up
Has BP become ineffective?
1 hour ago, VulneraryRain said:How long did u use bp for a week? If so your prob just purging your gonna have to start from zero might take months.
For a week? No, I've mentioned I'd been using it for about a decade before I burnt myself in 2014 and had got prescribed hydrocortisone. Since then I've been using every other day for about 2 years
