Hi (Dan) I'm trying to find out whether benzoyl peroxide kills Staphylococcus aureus and epidermidis. It's not particularly easy or obvious from searching Google. Just wondering if anyone on here (pe...

The only reference on that article is

I could not find any reliable information on the prevalence of scalp acne on Google... Maybe you are confusing acne vulgaris with folliculitis or dermatitis?

If you can provide evidence to support your assertion that scalp acne is VERY COMMON I would be very grateful.

For what it's worth I theorize that acne is some sort of evolutionary consequence of humans becoming increasingly hairless. Every single acne spot centres around a hair follicle. You will never get ac...

As other's have mentioned the only thing that will work 100% for this is Accutane. Other options to consider that haven't been mentioned are Narrowband UVB (which could be used for a few months and w...

Sounds encouraging. Congrats if true. I'm a little skeptical of first time posters claiming miracle cures though? If you could post a photo of your quasar device and a proof of purchase that would d...

Hey guys, does acne go after facial hair growth? I only get those pustules on my cheeks, where I yet don't have hair, or anywhere where's my facial hair didn't grow much. and I rarely get pimple on my...

Hi Tom Not sure if you're still following this thread but you mentioned something about the lack of evidence for Zinc Pyrithione. I presume you have read this study which concludes; "The molecular...

Hi Tom Thanks for your reply. May I ask on what basis are you such an advocate of Hegor 150 shampoo with 1.5% climbazole? As far as I can tell, it is not mentioned on emedicine.com or any of the ot...

Hi Tom (Busby) Sorry to hijack this thread. What are your thoughts on using zinc pyrithione to cover off any potential fungal involvement? I'm not sure about using a product like Nizoral on my face ...

The layer of skin where Staph Epidermidis resides is dead. The cells are dead. No blood supply, nothing. Happy to be corrected but nothing you eat or drink is going to efffect a pathogen infecting a ...

You have black dots on your nose which might be Trichostasis Spinulosa or just plain old Acne Vulgaris.

Looks like you have pseudofolliculitis barbae or sycosis barbae. All you need to do is stop trimming your beard. Don't apply BP because; 1. It will promote unnecessary deposition of melanin (hyperpi...

Sorry, it was just that I dont see why would they do that, its not like he is making those products himself. Acne.org gets paid for their products, since I am from Europe I would rather order from som...

"If anyone is interested the UK distributor of Acne.org products has just been told by Acne.org to stop re-selling Dan's products." Not sure what your point is because you've not made one but if i...

Hello If anyone is interested the UK distributor of Acne.org products has just been told by Acne.org to stop re-selling Dan's products. These products were available on ebay for reasonable prices bu...

Hey, I answered your questions inline above. I'm curious what you're referring to by this "Acne mimic" Anyways, I'm back on accutane, because I started breaking out like crrrrraaaaaaaaaazyyy after I ...

hey ngaid001, sorry for the late reply, I've been off this site for a bit.. i find it unhealthy to read too many things on this site. I have been playing a lot of volleyball and some hockey lately, so...

Brandy let me know people were asking about me in this thread, so I figured I'd weigh in. Yes, unfortunately, I still break out if I slack off on The Regimen. My family genetics make for recalcitrant ...

He still does, although the regimen prevents it. Since he's used it for so long it would probably take a while for full-blown acne to reappear, but from what I have heard it was pretty severe. Cystic ...

I appreciate this might go unanswered, but I had a brainwave and just want to throw this out there. Does Dan actually suffer from Acne Vulgaris anymore? I know when he stops using BP he gets little ...

Hey everyone, What treatments do you find work best for the side effect of dry, dull, and yellow eyes whilst on isotretinoin? Curious to hear what everyone uses, how successful etc. I find my drops ...

The stratum corneum exhibits an avidity for water…imbibing it in quantities that cause excessive swelling, which in turn causes…the plugging of eccrine poral or...

megan: have you tried hormonal treatments such as oral contraceptives or spironolactone? These can also be effective for reducing both oily skin and acne. Hi Biggs Just wondering if you had a link ...
