Congrats!! You are one of the rare few individuals who have finally (seems like it takes a lifetime) found a "cure" for their acne. Even though I love this website and it saved me from myself on more ...

Honestly, you only appear to have a VERY mild case of acne. It doesn't look bad at all! Anyways!, the absolute best face mask (and trust me, I've tried hundreds, seriously) is Proactiv's Deep cleansi...

HI! I too am currently on accutane (2nd round actually), and I just want you to take a very deep breath and relax. I know it's really difficult to stay calm when you feel as if your face looks l...

Cigarettes send very bad toxins into your body. Your body has to expel those toxins somehow. And one of the ways it does so, is through your skin. So yes, it's very possible that smoking is playing ...

Well as yor are probably aware, different vitamins/medications effect people differently. For example, someone take vitamin D might clear up dramatically, while someone else taking the same thing migh...

This makes me lose trust in Dermatology a little:(

I would say moderate.

Well, from what your describing, it sounds like cystic acne. It could be something you're eating. Dairy, nuts, and other things can cause cystic acne flare ups. Corner of mouth pimples are the worst

Hello! So about a week ago, I had this pimple-like bump pop up right between my breast, on my sternum. At first, I thought it was merely a little pimple (even though I NEVER get pimples on my chest) ...

Hey! So I have had this rather large black head on my cheek, just under my eye, for about 2 months now. It's obviously a black head since it has a black center. It's not sore or tender like a pimple,...

I appreciate all the lovely responses from everyone. It's really refreshing to know that there are many people (male and female) who aren't bothered by acne when it comes to dating. While acne does de...

Hello! I saw a thread on here about what girls think of guys with acne, but I am curious (being a acne sufferer myself) what a guy thinks of a GIRL with acne? In my opinion, a guy with acne looks ...

I am honestly scared of the things I would do to obtain completely clear skin. To me, it's the equivalent to being the richest, most powerful person in the world...

From my personal experience, going makeup-less has resulted in much clearer skin. This past summer, I broke out horrendously! I'm talking nice ripe white heads and cyst all along my chin, jaw and lowe...

Hi! So about two days ago I developed a tender, sore spot on my chin. It doesn't feel like a bruise or anything really. It actually feels like the beginning of a cyst but like I said, it's been a cou...

Yeah, that definitely looks like an allergic reaction. Are they just bumps, or are they painful, itchy, flaky? Because those would other indicators of an allergic reaction. Benzoyl Peroxide is a pret...

I was wondering if anyone has ever experienced feeling psychically dirty when you break out or have severe/moderate acne. It's as if you can't take enough showers or wash your face enough. I'm current...

Hey! So I am currently on my 3rd month, 2nd round, of Accutane. I'm having so many more prescription related issues than before. 1st month- On Amnesteem 40mg/day. 2nd month- Clavaris 40 mg/day 3rd m...

I know this feeling too well. It doesn't really make me "sick" though, it annoys and angers me more than anything; because yes, majority of people with clear complexions don't understand how lucky the...

I feel you! I'm 17 now, and use to have really nice skin. And I took advantage of it. I would wear tons of makeup, hardly wash it, and still had nice skin. I look bad now, and I think why did I have t...

Honestly, what IS there to like about acne? I certainly hate everything about it, and everything that comes with it. Especially the unsympathetic, judgmental family that constantly calls you dramatic....

What's really ironic is the fact that I am currently on Accutane, but thank you for those suggesting it, and for the advice of those who rather take a more natural approach. I found everyone's feedbac...

So here recently, I've been scared to eat hardly anything because I'm worried it will break me out. There's numerous food items that I can recall having a pimple for consuming. I know for sure dairy c...

I've been on my second round of Accutane for starting 3 months next week. I've been doing alrighty, with a new pimple occurring every week. I already had my initial breakout during first month but now...

Hey all! I had this thought the other day. I have come to realize that I have this immense fear of getting a new pimple. My gut sinks, anxiety peaks, sweat, when I merely notice a tender area on my f...
