the only thing that's actually gonna help in that list is the pillow case. I drink a fuck ton of water just out of habit and it's never helped my skin. sever acne is a hormonal disorder that will only go away with time, you can mitigate some of the symptoms with drugs.

>> No.8845386

>>8845314
well then your options are slightly more limited. Is it as severe as the female in your pic? Because then you might need to visit a doctor and do accutane.

Note that accutane is the equivalent of having braces for acne skin and it fucking sucks. You cant drink, you have to be inside all day, and you're skin sucks.

A doctor would likely start you on a Minocycle/Doxy routine, coupled with Retin-A. This takes 3 months to work and during that time your acne will only be worse. But it will get better, expect a 60-80% reduction.

You are going to want to start moisturizing. I know you probably think your face is oily enough. Its not. Your skin is actually drier than it needs to be so its pumping out all these tasty fatty oils for bacteria to snack on.

You can use the Oil cleansing method to aleve this. I personally just use 1 drop of passion fruit oil and 1 drop of Jojoba oil on my face with a moisturizing sunscreen. That's all I need. At night I replace the sunscreen with SnailBee cream and a regular nighttime moisturizer.

Always keep the PH of your skin high. You do this with acid toners. These will dry the fuck out of your skin but you moisturize and you will be fine. It doesn't matter how flaky or shitty your skin is, if you moisturize it will look fine and will heal up over time. The reason for this is that the bacteria will have rampant growth at low PH. That's the reason you shouldn't wash your face with soap, the oil will come back in 20 minutes, but the PH will remain low for as long as 24 Hours.

All i can advise from here is experimentation. Acne is caused by so many different things and your acne could reside in a completely different layer of skin with different rules.

Try

Masks

Vitamin-C serums

Oils

Astringents

etc.

Good luck

You won't get prescribed that first-off anyway.

Go to your general practitioner. He'll probably give you benzoyl peroxide with clindamycin topically.

After that, it's oral antibiotics. A long way after that, and with specialist referral, it's Accutane.

Here's my pasta:

I use Proactiv. Didn't work too well at first, but I figured out a way for it to work wonders for me specifically. Maybe you can take inspiration, knowing that each person has unique skin so you'll have to tamper for a while before you get it right.

>wake up and shave, brush teeth
>wash face with renewing cleanser one to three times (more during summer when skin is greasier)
>shower and wash face with cleanser once more after using shampoo
>finish shower, dry face, and apply revitalizing toner
>wait until dry, and apply repairing treatment to face
>use clearasil vanishing acne cream on sides of face and forehead instead of repairing treatment

I do this same process at night, except I don't shower. I can't stress enough how important it is to do this twice every day, and wash your face BEFORE you go to sleep. I don't care if you're taking a nap in the afternoon. If it's longer than a couple hours, wash your face. Sleeping drastically changes how your body treats your skin, so you must wash your face ahead of time. Think of your face washing as bookends for your sleeping.

Other advice: clean pillow cases and sheets every week or two, eat healthy, and don't be hard on your skin. If you disturb it, you will cause more acne. Do everything gently, even if it’s counterintuitive. That’s why I use the cleanser multiple times instead of scrubbing it fiercely just one time.

Depression, stress, and sleep all affect your skin as well, but those will all likely improve once you’ve started finding the proper cleansing regimen for your skin. When it rains, it pours, but in a good way.

Anyway, I don't know how much this specific advice will help, but I went from shutting myself off from society and thoughts of suicide to clear skin and revealing my beautiful face in a matter of 4 years on my own. With good outside knowledge, you can get there a lot sooner. Good luck.

PROTIP: The most efficient way to get rid of individual zits (to use on the worst ones) I found was to apply a wet hot (and CLEAN!) towel on the area for a while. Just hold it on your face while you watch tv or browse the chans.

Make sure you are clean, have a clean pillowcase every night etc. this will stop some Acne but it is mostly caused by hormones so it wont do much if you have it bad.

I started on doxycyclin but cant say i recommend it, it gave me heart burn and gerd. my parents were scared of accutane, they still don't like it, but I talked to a doctor who has been prescribing it since 2008, the most severe side efffect he's seen is hair thinning or moderate depression. talked to another lady who worked derm for 10 years, saw only miracles and the worst side effect was nosebleeds and chapped lips

been on doxy prescribed by a doctor for 3.5 months and it's down ~60-80%. Only really started going in the last 2 weeks. Only costs me ~15 dollars/3months for antibiotics/topicalcream/moisturiser.

For how long did you take accutane and in what dosages?

There is a thread on reddit talking about this I think it's from long ago but it's about taking MSM and Zinc I think and everyone says it does work. I started taking that and a bunch of other shit 3 weeks ago and I don't get big zits anymore and my acne used to be pretty bad not "oh look a zit my face is disfigured now!! ;-;" bad but like really bad I still have tons of scars but a decent face thank fucking god I wasn't born ugly.

>> No.8847969

The chances of rolling back are slimmer with bigger cumulative dosages and keeping taking accutane even after your acne clears up, usually after cumulative dose. Better go up to 100mg this time, then slowly decline, friend.

Never wash your face with anything else than a real soap with at least 70 oil (olive, laurel). Alep or Marseilles are famous good ones.

Moisturise with aloe vera gel, or jojoba oil as someone said. It's not going to leave your skin greasy, but nourrished.

Never put anything else on it. No concealer, no "miracle new cream" you see at the supermarket. Nothing. Let your skin breathe, feed it, clean it.

I've got about 5 days left of accutane after taking it for about 5 months.

My face is completely clear. This was legitimately one of the best decisions of my life. If you really think you need it then go ahead.

I am ready for this shit to be over though. I have to moisturize my face several times a day, my lips are in a perpetual state of chappedness, and my hair is awful. I had dry/coarse hair to begin with, but with the lack of oils from accutane, it's pretty much just dead. But all of those are minor, and will go away in about a month. Totally worth it.

Okey, just listen to me, do this before accutane.

1. Buy an antibacterian soap bar (Ex. Cetaphil)
2. Salizing exfoliant gel (Ex. Dermostata)
3. Hydratant no comedogenican cream
4. Peroxide Benzoile (2.5% or 5%)
5. Non comedogenican face sun cream

Morning order: soap<salizinc<hydratant<sun cream
Night order: soap<peroxide benzoile

Just be calm and wait, sleep over a clean pillow everynight and avoid cow milk, cheese, grassy food, chips, etc.. Good luck. If this dont work go with antibiotics or roaccutane.

I did accutane for 5 months about 2 years ago and my acne still hasn't returned, it probably never will.

I get a small pimple like once every couple of weeks maybe, and they go away in like a day. I don't take care of my skin at all either, like I don't even wash my face except in the shower a bit with water. I'm so thankful.

I used to have horrible cystic acne. I'd constantly have at least 2 to 3 massive underground zits plus scattered pimples, extremely painful and humiliating.

Accutane was miserable because my skin cracked and I got really bad depression while I was on it, but after 2 years without acne I can definitely say it was worth it.

Really, acne made me miserable, 5 months of being really miserable to get rid of my acne forever was worth it.
I was in a really intense school when I was on it too so that probably added to the depression. I'd recommend starting it at the beginning of summer if you're going to do it.

Apple cider vinegar... My wife struggled with acne like posted for years and after years of trying shit, apple cider vinegar is the only thing that consistently works hand down for the worst fucking small and painful type acne... Put on cotton swab or paper towel and religiously dab on your face morning and night, and drink a tiny amount (bottle cap full) mixed with a glass of water each morning, works like a charm... You can thank me later, and as far as why this works, has something to do with neutralizing acidity/base in and on skin... You can find the apple cider vinegar or ACV as my wife calls it in like a trader joes or whole foods maybe amazon prime but whatever you do, get the BRAGGS unfiltered and unrefined organic shit, the other strains do not work as well or may not work at all... Give it as few as 7 days with the aforementioned technique but again be relentless, don't miss a day cuz ur drunk one night and too lazy to do it, just do it
