This is my name

I recently visited the dermatologist and she prescribed me Greenstone brand Clindamycin phosphate topical lotion 1%. She also prescribed me some sort of tretinoin but my insurance apparently said ther...

I just got some Vicco turmeric cream and I have to say the smell of this stuff is absolutely nauseating! I can TASTE it, and it's like I ate a stick of incense. Not sure how well I'm going to handle t...

Thanks for sharing, I might have to try some of this stuff.

Thanks for your input. I am not sure I am ready for Accutane... I am thinking a serious diet change may be in order. I don't eat poorly and I've never thought that my diet affected my acne. But maybe ...

Well, it sort of comes and goes in waves but I always have at least a few pimples on my face. I was counting at least 10 pimples on my face every day. When I went to the doctor I was breaking out wit...

You alright?

Hey everyone, I haven't posted much lately and I just wanted to maybe get some insight on my situation. I talked to my dermatologist about going on Accutane again even though my skin just returned to ...

Well, my triumphant return to Acne.org is marked by cysts all over my forehead. I usually don't get cystic acne, but whenever I do it's always a huge breakout that lasts forever. Currently I have 2 hu...

I have the problem where I often get acne right on my upper lip after I shave. I use a beard trimmer to shave around my mouth because I have a beard and I get errant hairs growing around my mouth. It ...

First, stop wasting your money on SPF 70. High numbered sunblock does more harm to your skin than an SPF 30. An SPF 30 does just as good a job as 70, but without the added irritants to your skin. W...

Thanks! I'll have to look into my options...

I have started my second 30-day treatment of Accutane and I of course am experiencing extreme sun sensitivity to the point where I can't even be in sunlight for about 1 minute without my face turning ...

I just started the last 10 pack of pills I have. My skin seems to be dry and is flaky in some parts but I am ok with that as it is better than being oily. Also I got a new pimple on my forehead which ...

Are you planning to go up beyond 40mg? How long are you taking it for? Hmmm well I guess that's up to my doctor to decide, I have a followup appointment on the 15th. I have only been taking 40mg on...

Thanks! I wanted to check-in and write about my progress because I'm feeling pretty good about it! I'm about halfway through my 30 days of Accutane/Isotretinoin/Claravis and I am finally feeling pre...

I know how you feel. My skin has really affected my psyche and I was really depressed about it for a long time. However, I recently started Accutane and things are looking up! I am actually about to w...

Thanks! Yea, I am in the same situation, I go to OSU and have been dreading walking around campus! Although the semester is about to end. I am slightly worried about the summer because I don't want to...

Well, so far my skin is still pretty oily. Although I think I am feeling a bit dry-skinned... I am highly sensitive to sunlight so I don't know what I'm going to do besides bathe myself in sunscreen. ...

I just started 40mg of Claravis once a day as of 04/15/13. I am really hoping this will help me as it seems to help so many others. So far I got a large zit right in the middle of my forehead just 2 ...

^^To the above posters, the food pyramid was recently debunked as pure shit and has been replaced by the food plate. I think the food pyramid was actually invented just to sell crap so it never had ou...

Hello, everyone. I am wondering if anyone might have helpful suggestions for me to fight a pimple or two or three that I have. Namely, I tend to get pimples around my mouth/lips and I had a bad breako...
