   The Million Dollar Question!!!!! (Acne board)

22nd March 2007
This question has been asked many times before in some form or another... but I was hoping to get a little more feedback... I'm sure many people have been suffering from acne from a very young age (age 10 for me) and have tried every product out there, you name it... all the meds, w/e... so now many of us have some serious scaring going on... I do...

I FINALLY found a good balance... Differin cream and Minocycline, that seems to be doing something... and now I want to attack the scars. I've seen many suggestions, some I've tried... some not... I plan to try the aspirin mask, as well as the clearasil acne scar treatment kit someone else said worked for them...

ANY OTHER PRODUCTS/IDEAS/HOME RECEPIES? Thanks!!!!:wave:
23rd March 2007
Well, I just started about a week ago... and so far things are great! i was really afraid of the huge breakout phase, but I didn't get one! (or havne't so far)... I've seen some great improvement around my chin and jaw line... the antibiotic minocycline doesn't make me feel sick or anything, but I know that it is a side effect for many people... I have WEIRD skin... my face will produce a whole lot of oil during the day, and as soon as I wash my face, it will dry out stiff as a board. So, my doctor put me on Differin CREAM (not the gel, which is more drying) and so far, so good!!!!! They say to stay away from the sun, but during the day I use a SPF 20 Neutrogena illuminating moisturizor which takes care of that. But so far, so good... hopefully the improvement continues!!!!!:)
