I had BAD Acne on my face. Principle Secret deep facial wash, PS exfoliator and Accutane cleared me up very well. The PS wash, exfoliator and Mederma Gel have immensely helped with my scars. Almost have the baby face back.

HTH.

Here's an elaboration and addition to the initial post:

JFYI, I have found my complete routine to be pretty unique. I just did it myself. I didn't learn of it from anybody else.

Accutane was the only thing that really got rid of my Acne. It got way out of control. I tried A LOT of topicals, face wash systems (granted, not ProActive) antibiotics etc and it only seems to dry and irritate my skin more.

Accutane cleared me up. I dosed higher than anyone I have ever known at 80 mg per day for 6 [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]mos[/words]. My skin was pretty darn clear at 4 [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]mos[/words] with the occasional breakout. Then at 40 mg per day for 9 [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]mos[/words] to to my best to "seal the deal" and rid acne forever.

During the 80 mg for 6 [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]mos[/words] cycle, side effects were dry eyes and chapped lips.
General eye drops helped with the eyes. Before I figure out how to keep my chapped lips under control, I had some cracking and infections of those cracks. A dermatologist anti biotic healed the cracks and then I used Neopsporin triple anti biotic for a while for moisture and infection prevention. When my lips healed up perfectly and were just very dry, I maintained them pretty well with some mini tubes of extra strength vaseline lip therapy. They have all kinds of flavors to choose from.

During the 40 mg per day for 9 [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]mos[/words] cycle I had little to no problem with chapped lips and no problem with dry eyes.

I use: "Step 1 Gentle Deep 4 in 1 cleanser" every day found at www.principlesecret.com/html/products_2.php . I used it throughout treatment and still use it today.

Steps 2 and 3 may help immensely too. I don't use them though.

I use: "Gentle Deep Revitalizing Scrub". I used to use it every day, then every other day, now I use it about 3 times per week.
http://www.principlesecret.com/html/products_3.php .

Again, the other products may help more, but I do not use them.

I forgot to mention that I also use Eucerin Original Lotion and attribute a lot of my scar diminishing and skin rejuvenation to it. http://www.eucerinus.com/skincare/moisturizingandhealing/handandbody/original/frame1.html

I use it atleast once a day. It is like no other lotion I have ever found. It is non comedogenic (non pore clogging/acne irritating) . It does not smell. It is strong, thick and leather or silk like. I normally have to rinse and pat dry my face after I put it on though because of how thick it is and how shiny it makes the skin.

You may like the results from other products by Eucerin too, but I do not use them: http://www.eucerinus.com/products/frame1.html# .

For optimal results I use the deep clean first, exfoliate the dead and dirty skin, deep clean the freshly exposed skin, apply Eucerin fairly liberally, rinse with water and pat dry. Also, make sure to change your pillow case every evening because of the body/skin oils that transfer to it during sleep.

On occasions of maybe 3 times per week at most, I used to use Mederma Gel for scars. I think Neosporin came out with something similar. It gets messy when it dries and it clogs the pores, so I would rarely use it. I almost never use it now. http://www.mederma.com/ .

Today, my face is pretty darn clear minus a few freckles and very light scars if I get picky. It is pretty close to "baby face" again. I am very happy. Thanks for the kind words. Congrats on your improvements too. I know how bad acne sucks. I make an effort to tactfully help people when I see they could use some advice in this area. It's very thoughtful of you to make an information source. Although, there are many out there on the net now, mostly through forums.

On the occasion that I may get a whitehead from not washing my face and or sweating a lot from a workout, I use PS "Blemish Buster": http://www.principlesecret.com/html/products_4.php in combo with my standard wash, exfoliate, moisturize. It is gone in one day at most. Sometimes gone in 15-60 minutes.

HTH.

I never said that I didn't like it. I have never used it. I haven't cared to. I haven't needed to.

JFYI, Accutane is like a super high dosage of Vitamin A made in a form that is less harmful to your body than taking equivalent amounts of OTC Vitamin A.

Eucerin, Neosporin, Vaseline lip therapy and Mederma can be bought at almost any location throughout the world commonly called a "drug store". CVS, Walgreens, etc etc etc.

The Principle Secret line is usually more exclusive to malls and their own ordering by phone and website.

Accutane made my acne spread and pimples become nickle sized painful puss! Lost vision, and made me see things. Got severe depression from it. And oh yeah! It made me impotent for a year!!! Took another 3 years to get a full hard-on again. I was 17.

:O Wow. My sincere condolences. You're the first person I have ever learned of to report this out of MANY happy users. Guess it just substantiates that we are all different, vaguely. I wonder what the specifics are that make this difference of results/symptoms while using accutane.

MUstBdreaming, loss of vision! dam, hardcore man!

 

[ohshit]

does anyone know of any natural ways to get rid of acne scarring

 

[Mr.Winkle]

Yeah, drinking a glass of water with like a teaspoon of lemon juice in it can help heal scars. Also you can make an astringent that will fade scars by mixing half water and half apple cider vinegar, soaking a cotton ball in the solution, rub the cotton ball over your face, let it dry and then rinse it off. You might have to lower the amount of apple cider vinegar if it drys your skin out at first. Try like a 1/4 vinegar 3/4 water solution. Using both the apple cider vinegar astringent and lemon water combo made my scars fade in a couple weeks. Not a lot though, but it was a noticeable change. Also sun light will help to fade scars. But don't sit in the sun too long. 10-15 minutes a day should be good enough. You don't want a sunburn. Lot's of sunburns = skin cancer.

 

[JesterX]

what about the pitted acne scars how do you get rid of them i have few and they piss me off i think a couple were caused by chicken pox and the smaller ones from acne i have heard of tca cross would this be a good treatement to go through for pitted acne scars? i would really like to know how to get rid of these damn things.

 

[yungdunna]

[kdogg101]

Does anyone have any good suggestions for back and chest acne? I have used the neutrogena washes and they haven't done much in the yrs I have used them. Also does anyone know if mederma is available in canada? I have been looking around everywhere for it.Also does accutane get rid of all acne all over the body? Thanks

Article from Popular Science

" If there's a kryptonite for acne, it's heat. So scientists at Tyrell, Inc., invented the Zeno, a handheld rechargeable device that gives your pimples heat stroke. Hold the tip of the cellphone-size device to your zit for two and a half minutes, and a 16-bit microprocessor emits mea-sured pulses of 119°F heat. (It feels sort of like a hot compress.) Under your skin, bacteria produce stress proteins and self-destruct, halting the inflammation that creates visible blemishes and healing the area faster than other over-the-counter remedies&8212;typically within 24 hours. $225"

This is an AMAZING PRODUCT!!

I buy a product at Costco called "AcneFree" it has the same formula as "Proactiv" but it is about half the price

(Proactiv's Patent ended and AcneFree uses there formula)

Thanks I'll have to check this Zeno thing out in the summer when I have cash.

 

[Cataclism]

Don't bother it's PURE GARBAGE. I've been battling acne for 10 years. I've tried every treatment on the market, including zeno. It was the most expensive gimmick I ever bought, and also the less effective. Everyone agrees on all the acne message boards that's the thing is a total ripoff.
