I don't know if this remedy has been shared before on acne.org but I felt like based on my results that I HAD to share how I cured my back acne. Maybe it will be able to help someone out as back acne is not a nice thing to have. Back when I was in college, I broke out very mildly with back acne. I did some google searching and saw that benzoyl peroxide was what would be helpful to cure it. I went to my local drug store and purchased the product "Benzagel 5." Within two weeks, my back acne was GONE. Fast forward a year later, I am now engaged and full of stress. I had stopped using Benzagel about 5 months ago and boy was that a huge mistake. My back acne came back in full swing and even more aggressive. I had ran out of benzagel and had completely forgot to purchase more so I started to use a proactive exfoliater - BIG MISTAKE. This made my back acne worse! So my fianc© ran to the store, bought me benzagel and I ordered PanOxyl 10% online thinking that maybe a higher percentage would help clear my acne faster. I have my wedding coming up in 2 months so I am willing to do anything to cure it. Now, one month later and my acne is GONE!! This is how I used the products:

- Shower twice a day (Morning & Night)
- buy a back scrub brush with bristles 
- Put a nickel size amount of PanOxyl on the brush, scrub for about a minute, leave on for about 2 minutes then rinse off.
- then when you get out of the shower, rub a fair amount of benzagel on your back. **wait until it dries before you put on clothes or go to bed.. about 10 mins***

Do this every day and your acne will disappear. Also, within the first month of doing this, new pimples may pop up and that's okay! Your skin needs to rid the other clogged pores before it can heal. 

Doing regimen men will also dry out your back. It will burn and flake within the first 3 weeks but your skin does get used to it. I'm passed that part and my skin feels amazing and smooth.

here is my before and after photo. (There are two blemishes in the pic but are old pimples almost healed. All my acne scars have gone away and I have had no knew acne in the last 3 weeks!

This regimen isn't ready everyone as everyone has different skin types - if you have moderately oily skin, this regimen is great.
