So I have been trying to treat my pih from my cystic acne for a while now with no look. I was recently told it was actually PIE which is characterised by red / purple marks rather than the brown and d...

Don't overdo the peels. It'll end with scarring. The healing process is not done after the layer is fully shed. The healing process continues for 30+ days for lighter peels. You'll get much smoother r...

when i was younger i had good success with 40-50% glycolic acid but you can try tca that is more of a heavier duty type of peel and should give you good results. i would really not recommend doing tha...

Wondering if anyway has had any luck with vitamins improving their cystic acne at all? If so could you tell me a bit about what you was taking, how long for and how long it took to take an effect. Th...

Just a simple thought, have you ever tried using head and shoulders with zinc? I've heard that it works wonders for people with neck and back acne. I have facial acne, not back or neck so I don't have...

I was looking through photos of my skin and I can't believe how bad it has gotten. The first photo is from August last year when I joined the site and at that time I thought my acne was awful and look...

Seems like we have the same problem mate... Im wondering if you Ever tried accutane for your acne, and dis it work at all or not? Nope I havn't yet but think I will be real soon. Didn't want to ha...

  Yer definitely look in to your diet it seems like that could be one of the causes. Is your acne just round your jawline or is it any where else? Mainly neck and jawline What could I do wit...

Hello. I hope you can help me with this question. Since i was 15 years old, i have dealt with extreme acne all over my body. When i was around 18 years old i started taking accutane for the first tim...

First of all, be happy that they are not on your face. Trust me. I've had both. Horrible cystic face acne when a teen to early 20s... cleared up finally after round 3 of accutane.... small break of sa...

Do you touch your neck and back with your fingers? Do you get pimples in or around your ears? Do you get ear infections or stuffy ears? When you were on antibiotics, were they at all effective? I ha...

My cystic acne is destroying me! I have never felt so bad. Lost my job, failed at university and don't even socialise any more all because of my awful skin. My neck and upper back is so bad and painfu...

Haha I know what you mean, but if your skin seems really tolerant you can always up the % afterwards. At least then you won't risk damaging your skin. I order from Makeup Artists Choice. It's a little...

I use the 40% lactic acid peel, which is the one people recommend to start off with because it's not too strong. For me, I've definitely noticed a big improvement with my PIH. At first it didn't seem ...

Any one had any improvements with trying a chemical peel? Was going to get one ordered and try it out in the next few days so would be awesome to hear how people got on with them? Wanted a high perce...

I'm not too knowledgable on vitamins so you will have to bare with me. It just says vitamin b2.   What is the side effects of you being defiant in certain vitamins? Anything major? Surely stopp...

Was just wondering the same thing. I have started taking b2 and quite a few other vitamins and my acne has definitely flared up compared to what it was. Going to stop them for a couple weeks and see i...

I know what you mean but look a bit more in depth in to it. If it has worked for over two months then your doing something right. Just examine everything that has happened in the past few days that yo...

For me personally gluten seems to be the cause or atleast part of it. I tried a dairy free diet for a while but nothing changed but since being gluten free my skin has finally started to heal no new c...
