Hedgecore, that breaks my heart..stay strong and follow your dreams! Sometimes people say things when they are angry that they know they shouldn't… that doesn't mean she doesn't love you xx

Hi Dylemma, i am probably not much help but I would strongly suggest you see a derma if you can afford too now that you are working.. It is ok if you work outdoors but you must cover up and wear a wid...

Hey Jordan, just wanted to say hang in there buddy… you have conquered the acne, congrats on that ..now the next stage, you can do this, just think how far you have come. A strong ...

I think anthonykell is a good hearted man with good intentions.. thanks for trying to lift spirits!

Hi AnonGirl9, I am by no means an expert.. just a mum of a teen that has been suffering with Acne as well. I would suggest that you talk to your Dr about Accutane. You will find many different opinio...

I am so sorry for my delay in responding… I have not forgotten about all you wonderful people [some of you may not be so wonderful but hard to forget!] It has been a crazy 6 month...

Hello oneproudmumma im a very experienced acne sufferer for over 20 years myself. I have found the best treatment overall even better than accutane is: taking a cephalosporin antibiotic like duricef 2...

Hi Jennjm, Thanks for your message, it is always comforting to hear that others are experiencing the same thing and that your not alone. I hope in return that you know that you will get through this.....

sounds to me like you need a hug ((((())))) If I am not mistaken, you are missing your family… doesn't sound like they are near? It must be hard dealing with the pressures of study...

Oh My.. I am actually laughing right now…, I saw the title and said to myself "this may be an interesting read" Then I open the post and realised who wrote it! ….someone please tell me why i just wast...

A lot of arm chair experts .... At the end of the day he should be under the care of a dermatologist. This is WAY beyond the scope of an esthetician. Yes i agree. And just to clarify, he is und...

so, basically he is trading some muscles for acne? He is aware that is very likely that weight lifting is making his acne worse, yet despite knowing this, and despite knowing that stopping, will more...

have him quit the freaking weight lifting, he is not arnold or bodybuilder, quitting for a few weeks will not make him lose muscle mass, and like I said, the chances that he is a bodybuilder are almos...

Thanks for clarifying wishclean.. i will definitely keep an eye on it and if improvement doesn't continue I will look further into folliculitus. Twoo8569, i am so glad this post has helped others.. o...

Ok, I will be bluntly honest.. a paleo diet is not an option for him at this time. He is a 15yo who is more interested in gaining mass to follow a sporting dream & anything that stands in the way ...

Sorry if i have not responded directly to each comment or suggestion but please know that i am taking it ALL on board and appreciate everyones input. glee12, I did post an updated photo on the 14th [...

Great information wishclean.. thank you ..i will print this off and look at introducing some of your points. Dscully, yes the red marks are pretty dominant but i am hoping they will fade.. i am also ...

Thanks, He has been using the Stieva A since the start of the year and had a VERY SEVERE breakout about 3 weeks in.. but now i feel like it is settling down. The problem is he has almost gone through...

For those that have not seen my earlier post.. My 15yo son has SEVERE acne and i had joined acne.org 2 weeks ago looking for help. The Regimen products have arrived but he is still using the Steiva ...

I obviously don't know enough about treatments to comment but I have always been a person that feels everyone has their right to an opinion and in this case I don't think that either sides of the arg...

I was sure that i respond here yesterday but now i can't see it!.. maybe i didn't actually hit "post" Anyway, thanks for all your input. As i mentioned earlier Accutane isn't an option for him right...

Hey Ihateacne99, I noticed it has been a few weeks since your post. How are you doing? As a mum to a 15 yo son that also loves his footy [he plays Rugby League in Australia.. what footy do u play?] h...

Ladypink, you made me smile I have just returned from a school/community presentation where he was elected sports captain & even though this morning he was having doubts that he could do it, he w...

Thanks guys, Amarshgv, he has used epiduo throughout his time and it does sound like the same type of acne [opposite the Tzone].. great to hear your now almost clear! 13yearsofacne, I was thinking th...

Accutane is not an option for him.. it effected his thinking & emotional state which was the biggest concern & for him to totally dismiss the one option that was showing results tells me that ...
