Hey, I still struggle with this topic, fortunately though I’m not breaking out as much atm but I’m still left with quite a number of indentation scarring and hyperpigmentation. I’m on my 3rd month of ...

You could possibly try using a product that contains a percentage of AHA. Maybe look into a glycolic acid face wash or leave on exfoliant. These are great for helping to resurface the skin. If you’re...

Hey everyone, I know this may seem pathetic, and by no means am I looking for any sympathy, I just need some motivational words/positive stories in regards to acne and self confidence. I have had t...

I wouldn’t know the answers to your questions, I’m mainly commenting because I too am curious in regards to the long term effects these treatments and use of antibiotics can have. Are you still dealin...

Maybe look into trying a product containing glycolic acid. Nip + Fab have a range of products with a percentage of glycolic acid. Paula’s choice also have some options. Apparently glycolic acid can re...

If you aren’t prone to acne and have generally good skin, it seems it has to be an allergy of some sort. Possibly shampoo that you use or even washing liquid or powder that your washing your clothes a...

Depends if you’re looking for an exfoliating cleanser or just an average cleanser. I’m currently using Neutrogena naturals purifying cleanser and enjoying it. This cleanser in particular doesn’t conta...

Hey everyone, This is quite a random question but I would love to hear others personal experiences in regards to treating your acne scars whilst you have facial peircings. I have a piercing that is u...

I’m currently taking accutane 10mg a day. This is the first time I have taken the drug and planning on taking it for up to a year. Your derm said 3 years, that’s a long time!! Was there a reason why s...

Maybe try something with glycolic Acid in a lotion/ moisturiser form so it’s less irritating.

Since your skin is quite dry, maybe you could seek a cream cleanser instead of just using Micellar water. I have heard that some people wash their face with Manuka Honey since it can be quite hydrati...

My dermatologist suggested I go on Accutane for my persistent moderate to severe acne. She suggested I only take a low dose of Accutane (10mg a day) for 10 months to a year. My questions to you are: ...

Hey Everyone! Long story short, I’m an incredibly pale 23 year old female who has been experiencing consistent and persistent acne for the last 4 years. I would classify my acne as moderate to sever...

Hey I’m considering using apple cider vinegar to treat my acne and have the same questions. If you end up trying it let me know how it goes! If most moisturisers break you out, maybe you could try us...

I may be wrong but I don’t think it’s black heads your dealing with. It looks like what you call “blackheads” may be sebaceous filaments. They’re totally normal but unfortunately they never fully go a...

I can relate to you in so many ways!! It’s amazing how something like acne can affect someone’s life in so many ways. I go to great extents to avoid harsh lighting and catching a glimpse of myself in ...

Exactly! It’s so frustrating how something can affect your life in so many ways. Unfortunately we are our own worst critics and people probably don’t even notice your acne at first glance anyway. I wo...

I’m fed up with having acne!! Right now my face is covered and I mean COVERED in everything acne related. Ranging from blackheads, to whiteheads to full blown cysts. There’s not one area of my face th...

Late to the post but would love to hear if you have experienced any improvement? If your skin is really sensitive it’s best to use products that are going to assist and further treat your irritation a...

I was prescribed Diane 35 almost 6 months ago and have been experiencing many of the symptoms you mentioned. I haven’t been experiencing any thrush like symptoms, however my skin flared like crazy and...

This is the first time I’ve ever posted on here so bare with me. I have been breaking out terribly within the last 2 years. I’m a 23 year old female and had reasonably clear skin until I turned 19. Fo...
