You should try just using something mild like cetaphil face wash and witch hazel afterwards to calm down the skin's reaction a little then go to see a dematologist. Maybe look into accutane because I heard it works well but has a few side effects. What you have sounds a lot like what I have now but my break out is hormonal "as my doctor confirmed today". But anway my personal opinion is that any type of oil on the face isnt good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
baptista 1 Share Posted October 28, 2005 1:1 toner of good quality apple cider vinegar and water (or red, green or white tea) is supposedly an effective and easy treatment for helping get rid of post-acne marks. Lots of raves on the MUA and longhaircommunity boards over the past several months.Alternatively, azaleic acid (azelex) is good for that too and helps control active acne.

ezyrider 0 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 Thanks a lot . I tried tea which works well and skin also feels better . But where I am currently based does not have very good dermatologist . I have not been able to find witchhazel.I have started a course of minocycline and I hope it works . A friend of mine suggested to apply honey and lime which he claims to be a panacea for acne Quote Link to post Share on other sites
