I would say yes. I'm on my 3rd month of Gedarel 30/150. But my skin was already pretty much clear from the antibiotic I was on, so how do I know it's working? a) my acne has not come back so far b) my...

To our current knowledge: 1. Moisture retention - Because sebum creates a protective barrier between the skin and the air, moisture loss is minimized. This helps to prevent premature lines, if you no...

Clinique City Block SPF 40 Neutrogena Multi-Defence Daily Moisturiser with SPF 25 for oily/combo/normal or SPF 15 for sensitive/dry I'm also using some Korean Coppertone one with SPF 50...I have no i...

Day 32 Post Tetralysal I have one inflamed lesion on the top of my cheekbone, near my eye...but it doesn't seem too angry. I don't know if it's from stress or what, but I've been going through some r...

As someone already said earlier water+oil = do not mix. Oil will not be removed from your skin with just plain water. You need friction, and a lot of that if you're not using a surfactant. So at least...

Well the questions you have to ask yourself: 1. How will you pay for treatment once your insurance runs out? 2 months is not enough to clear anyone. 2. Have you exhausted all the other mainstream op...

Just to let you know: Vitamin C dissolved in water will not be absorbed into your skin. It will just crystallise on the surface as the water evaporates. To my knowledge, it would be very difficult to ...

Day 24 Post Tetralysal I have not broken out since I have stopped Tetralysal. At the moment my focus is on to get rid of those pesky blackheads...as my pores seem to be shrinking, the blackheads seem...

Day 86 Yesterday marked the finish of my Tetralysal course! I am all done and dusted. I am happy with the results and I'm seeing my GP on monday for a final check up, but I am 99% sure that I will no...

Day 73 Skin is continuing to get less oily, but I have 2 small whiteheads next to my nose on the left. The left side of my face seems to break out much more, how strange. I've been taking Gedarel sin...

It looks like entirely normal male skin. Pretty much all men have skin like yours. It's due to the dominant sex hormone in your body, testosterone. Testosterone makes the skin thick, oily and large po...

Day 68 I'm sorry I haven't updated in such a long time but I've been reaaaally busy So after a failed Impanon removal attempt, I was put on Gedarel 30/150. At first I was dubious that it would work,...

I would call that normal. My skin drips with oil 1 hour after of washing it...I would be grateful if it lasted 7/8 hours grease-free

Day 47 My Implanon wasn't removed yesterday at the end, because the nurse who is trained to do insertion/removal, wasn't in! now I have to wait another two weeks. No breakouts and no changes.

Wow, that is so unlucky you broke out after trying Dan's regimen, difficult to believe actually [i'm not saying you're lying.] Reminds of the saying that if it it ain't broke, don't fix it! I would ...

All toners do is remove all traces of the cleanser and balance the pH of your skin, ready for treatments. It won't help with the blackheads/clogged pores. You need to use a BHA/AHA lotion/cream to get...

I would just do the peels after you've finished your Accutane course. It's advisable to treat the acne first, and then the scarring, once the acne is gone entirely.

Day 43 No new spots inflammed spots since I've had that pustule, which was gone the next day btw. No new yeast infections either, probably thanks to the probiotic. Implanon removal next monday, than...

Can I ask how much vitamin B6 you're taking? My doctor was recently talking about a new study that showed that supplementing with 10mg for a week before your period can greatly reduce monthly, PMS rel...

yeah i do have pcos. flutamide is the only other anti androgen i know of besides spiro and i cant take spiro because it makes me really sick. I would see an endocrinologist. There are other anti-and...

Some reasons why you are having trouble finding a doctor that will prescribe it to you: 1. Flutamide has a bad profile as far as liver toxicity is concerned. Other anti-androgens are just as effectiv...

Just out of curiosity, why aren't you willing to try any of the aforementioned treatments? It's highly unlikely anything non-prescription will work for you. Of course, there is the off-chance your ac...

AHAs in cleansers will have no effect whatsoever. These acids need to remain on your skin to work. I suggest a lotion to use every day anything between 8% and 15% or a peel [if you can afford it]

Day 35 I have a little pustule right underneath my eye on the top of my cheekbone. That has to be the closest spot I've ever had to my eye. I feel like I'm PMSing constantly now...I have hot and cold...
