Just wanted to know what is the best way to treat acne while working in a job that involves me sweating all day in a dirty environment. Everyday I get new whiteheads during the day.. any suggestions??Treat acne, while working in sweaty job?
my hubby suffers with the same problem as you, he is a steel fabricator and welder so the dirt and sweat off his job makes it worse, we found that soap with tea tree oil in helps and a facial sauna, you know the things women usually own but never use? same as putting your head over a bowl of hot water, it seems to clean all the dirt out of his skin pores. hope this was of some helpTreat acne, while working in sweaty job?
Short term treatment - keep the face as clean as possible during breaks in the day. At minimum, wash with soap and water. At best, use an exfoliate and astringent. Another option may be to wear a headband or hat to prevent some of the sweat from running down the face.
Long term - see a dermatologist to get some antibiotic (e.g. tetracycline) treatment. Over time, this will reduce acne.
since it seems impossible to put anythin on his face during da day,it best to cleanse da face before bedtime and apply moisturiser or tree tea oil. eucerin,NEUTROGENA is a good brand.its best to take multivitamins during da day..make sure dat it contains zinc as zinc promote healing and helps acne.
If you鈥檙e looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne鈥?prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.
For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it鈥檚 advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.
Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.
Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:
http://www.acne-treatment-medicine-1.inf鈥?/a>
Drink lots of water to help get rid of your toxins; keep up with the ti-tree oil treatment as this is antibacterial (and an immuno-stimulant); try facial massages with Essential Oil of Geranium (balances sebum secretion) but make sure you have diluted it in a carrier oil first! Good luck!
PS if you are past your mid-twenties you could have a food allergy which is causing your acne...
Wash well and dry thoroughly then treat with an astringent, to day it up
During the day constantly wash(say every half-hour or when ever ur face feels greasy)with cool water, a gentle (baby, if possible) cleanser and pat dry with a smooth hand-towel. Try wearing a flea-net, but not a mask,if it's dust bothering you. At night, go to sleep in a cooler environment having treated ur face to a moisturiser pack. If you don't ur face wil soon get dry and chapped.
cant say this will cure it but if you eat a banana every day you get less spots.

I have a skin problem, its acne. What do you think could work to treat it more efficiently and faster?
What could work best, soap, pills, or something else?I have a skin problem, its acne. What do you think could work to treat it more efficiently and faster?
Go to a dermatologist (or at the least go to an esthetician that has trained in skin care). They specialize in treating special skin cases such as acne. Make an appointment at a place that sells a good line of skincare for a consultation or get recommended to a dermatologist. Don't use soap on your face it's so drying it can make the problem worse. (the pills are full of controversy, so make sure to ask lots of questions if recommended pills.) Get a full regimen of products including face washes, treatments and moisturizers. (Don't use Proactive, it seems to work however long term dryness can occur.)I have a skin problem, its acne. What do you think could work to treat it more efficiently and faster?
pro-active is really good
Your best bet is to go to a dermatologist. Only he can see exactly what's going on, and either give you the advice, medications, or prescriptions that you'll need. Just keep in mind that acne can leave scars that last a lifetime. Best of luck to you.

Can doxycycline be used topically to treat acne like clindamycin?
No, its chemical structure does not lend to effective absoption via the skin. Doxycycline has recently been approved in gel form for dental use, but it has to be applied directly to the gum and tooth pocket to be effective.
There are some members of the tetracycline family still marketed for topical use in acne. They are not used much since the development of other, more effective products, such as clindamycin and erythromycin.Topical tetracycline is available in the following dosage forms:
Chlortetracycline - Ointment (U.S. and Canada)
Meclocycline - Cream (U.S.)
Tetracycline - Ointment (U.S. and Canada),Topical solution(U.S.)

Any tricks to treat acne?
i mean are there any tricks besides drinking alot of water and preventing greasy foods to prevent acne?? i have acne but it is not so severe that i need a $20 acne treatment, i just want to use something that i can find at my houseAny tricks to treat acne?
toothpaste does not work thats just a stupid little rumour.
Try changing your pillowcase like once every week (or even
more often than that) becuz the oil in your face goes into your
pillowcase wen your sleeping, and then sleeping on the same
pillowcase every night puts more oil into your face which
causes pimples.Any tricks to treat acne?
toothpaste, dries the little nastys right up. Plus it has a cooling effect which is rather pleasant. Just dab some on there, let it dry and wash off. It will really reduce the size and redness of them.
Preventing greasy foods doesnt really work. Some say that if you put toothpaste on it, it will dry it up. I have also heard an ice cube may help (but it didnt work on my pimple). Good luck.

Natural remedies to treat acne?
O.K. this is the best there is to offer and it's cheap compared to all the things the stores offer. Bragg's apple cider vinegar wash your face and any other area with it daily. It cleans and disinfects all your pores. Your skin will thank you and it will help scars too.Natural remedies to treat acne?
Ok I use this 3 times a week and it does wonders!
Ingredients:
Epsom Salt
Oatmeal
Equipment:
Blender, coffee grinder, or food processor
Measuring cups
What you do is you put a 1/4 cup epsom salt and 1 cup oatmeal in a blender or whatever you have and mix it until it becomes a fine powder.
Directions:
3 times a week or more, when you take a shower dab a little bit of the mixture onto your fingertips. Then put 2 or 3 drops of water on the mixture on your fingertips and the gently rub onto your face for 30 seconds to a minute. Then rinse off.
The epsom salt penetrates any pimples and dissolves whiteheads or dirt trapped in the pore. While the oatmeal soothes and calms pimples causing them to be less red and shrink.
I promise your face will look healthier the second time you use it.
Epsom Salt and Oatmeal are natural products so there is no wierd side effects.Natural remedies to treat acne?
I would have to agree with virt. Using all organic products is going to be your best bet for acne.
I would suggest a castile soap cleaner
A toner with some ACV, pure witch hazel, aloe, tea tree, many things you can choose
your weekly scrub can be made if you like. I make mine with organic sugar, honey, and some organic oils.
You can then follow that with some tea tree in a oil base(coconut and emu are wonderful).
I would suggest products from mountain rose herbs or a health store.
I like mountain roses:
lemon face cleaner
followed by toner ( I now use jsut a flower water)
my once a week I use their facial scrub(or I make my own)
followed by their Restorative Skin Oil ( I also add a bit of emu oil with tea tree)
Tea tree works wonders and there are lots of products on the market that have it in it. But just a bottle of tea tree oil and you can apply to each pimple or add a few drops to your face wash and use. First suggestion however would be to make sure all the products you use on your face are natural. Read the ingredients, do your homework...most acne can be from the products you already use.
Smh @ that potato answer.
USE ALOE VERA.
MY NAN GAVE ME SOME .. IT WORKED.
RUB ALOE VERA ON THE PROBLEM AREAS.
cut a lemon in half and scrub it over the acne, let it sit for 10 minutes then wash it off.
scrape it off with a potato peeler

netrogena body scrub for acne and apply it with a body sponge.How do you treat back acne?
I used to have a like 2 pimples, but all you need to do is scrub it with loofa and soap. Mine is completely gone.
ick i hate that . wash daily with soap.
ProActiv Body Wash and Cleansing Pads
i had acne a little on my back when i was a teenager and the only thin ghtat worked for me other then acutain was nature's cure. they have a formula for males and females. its a pill and a cream. you can pick it up at any store like wal-mart.
Make sure your sheets are clean (same thing goes with pimples on your face!) If you are sleeping in dirty or not-so-fresh sheets, then you are just allowing your pores to become more clogged! Also, make sure that you cleanse the skin on your back after you excercise, or even sweat a little. And don't mess with it! Oils and bacteria on your hands can get into your already infected pores (back acne). Hope this helps!

Minocycline, RetinA and Duac to treat my mild acne....?
Has anyone here been on these Rx with good results, and how long before you saw any changes. I know all the side effects and dont need any more info on that, i dont need people putting me down. Just let me know if it DID WORK and HOW LONG BEFORE YOU NOTICED CLEARING UP.Minocycline, RetinA and Duac to treat my mild acne....?
Minocycline is a good product against papulopustular acne; RetinA is good against the noninflammatory black head type of acne. Duac is also used against the inflammatory acne. So, it appears to me that you are sort of doing ';overkill'; with your regimen, but it should work well for you. You can expect to see some beneficial response within about four weeks. (You might also expect to see some irritation at first, because of using the topical medicines.)Minocycline, RetinA and Duac to treat my mild acne....?

Don't mess with it too much. Try and take a metal pimple popper and pop it. Otherwise, your going to irritate it and make it worse.

Acne scarring on back - how to treat?
My gorgeous husband has acne scarring on his back, which he's had since his early twenties when he had bad acne (that he had to take medication for). He doesn't mention it often but he has said he wishes he didn't have his acne scars, and he still gets spots even now (he's 30). Is there a simple non-invasive treatment to help him get rid of his acne and his acne scars? We're going on a beach holiday next year and it would be nice to give him the option to fix this, if it builds his confidence.Acne scarring on back - how to treat?

How can i treat my acne? it's getting worse! help! its ruining my self-esteem..?
because of this i never had a Bf since in my life!How can i treat my acne? it's getting worse! help! its ruining my self-esteem..?
dermatologist to the rescue! boyfried? easy dear ..did you try smiling and be friendly to boys/men? that will do.How can i treat my acne? it's getting worse! help! its ruining my self-esteem..?
I treat my acne by using the techniques in the facemaster course: http://facemaster.net/thefacemastercourse.html ... really strikes at the heart of acne rather than treat the symptoms of it.
I highly recommend it. Report Abuse
Wash your face EVERYDAY. No exceptions. Never go to sleep with makeup on. My dad is a doctor and he recommeds Oxy. He says that there isn't a lot that you can do about the acne you have, but you can prevent it. This is a good acne treatment to prevent acne.
Neutrogena Deep Clean Facial Cleanser has helped me more than proactive and my pimples are not out of control any more.
You can find this cheap at your local pharmacy.
there is a vitamin complex you should try. email me for details
Go see a doc and get yourself on the pill - it worked for me and cleanse your face twice daily. Use non abrasive products - Johnsons works well - and try to steer clear of make up for a while.
My brother and daughter have a bad problem with acne..And I buy them the Medicated Apricot Scrub.. I think St Ives is the name brand maker.. but I buy the Walmart Equate brand.. It has the exact same ingredients in it.. I have found that cleaners with Salicylic Acid in it work alot better than ones with Benzyol Peroxide.. The scrub can irritate your face so I wouldn't use it everyday.. On the days my daughter doesn't use the scrub, she washes with soap then uses a cotton ball with astringent containing Salicylic Acid...Her face stays pretty clear..
Have you not got anything prescribed by your doctor? Perhaps try going on the contraceptive pill as it's known to help acne.
Get online and order PROACTIVE. I started using it a couple years ago and it really works! I also know alot of people who use it and there acne has disappeared as well. You can order it online it is a 3 step system. And you get a free mask and fact booklet with it.Trust me try it!
Try using St. Ive's Apricot Scrub. They also make a Facial mask you can use. It doesn't cost a whole lot, and it can be found at Wal-Mart. Plus, cut down on caffeine or fatty foods. What you put into your body has to come out somehow, and it is usually thru your pours.

those brown pigmentations or red spots will disappear with time. if not you can try using hydroquinone. but it is very drying and causes skin cancer as well. pitted scars will require dermabrasion and laser treatments. this have to be done after you have completed your isotretinoin treatment.I want to treat my acne scars.?

chilled vinegar and equal part of distilled water to close your pores and tone your skin. do twice weekly, also can use the chilled vinegar water as a toner 2 times daily.

the following 2 testimonials can be seen at http://www.earthclinic.com/cures/acne.ht鈥?/a>
Angelina O, has found that applying ACV topically to her face several times a day (4 or more times) has cured her of a ';very bad complexion';. She reports that she applies it straight and that while it burns her skin a bit, it still works like a miracle!
Cheryl writes, ';My daughter developed a case of moderate acne, and after trying a number of different things for over a year which helped very little or not at all, she started drinking 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar three times a day and applying it topically once at night. She has been acne free for two months. It took about three weeks to clear up.';
to drink, add to water and honey, or to apple juice.
you can get the vinegar at the health food store, or in some super markets.
yeah vit E is lipid soluble so youll never find a water based one for sure. i use salycilic acid in an acne gel. it really helps to fade the scaring. youll notice it in about 2 weeks that they are lighter.
only plastic surgery will fix the scars if they're that bad...your dermatologist should have told you that...

Washing your face consistantly is one of the most important things you can do, but hydrating your face is something people don't think about (using a moisturizer). There are also skin care products you can purchase at Wal-Mart, Target or Wagreens (made by Neutrogena for sensitive skin all in a little package together). You've seen the ads on TV for Proactive (which really does work, but is pricey). If you have really bad acne, it is best to consult with a dermatologist who can work with you on a skin regimine tailored just for you. Usually consisting of a prescription product that can be placed directly on the skin. Hope this helps.How to treat my acne problem?

make sure to cleanse your face every night before you go to bed, and in the morning, but not more than that! most people with acne tend to overwash their face because they think that helps, when it actually makes it worse (your body will produce more oil to keep your skin from being dry)... try not to touch your face, change your pillowcase often, and clean your phone with some kind of antibacterial wipe fairly often, too... if it's cystic acne, then you'll prob need to see a dermatologist... another thing to do is wear a moisturizer after washing your face in the morning - it will actually help your body from producing too much oil - and it's always a good idea to pick a moisturizer with an SPF

What can treat my acne?
what do you request?What can treat my acne?
Go to a dermatologist and get prescribed medication (either pills taken orally or an acne gel/lotion, or both).
Or, go to an esthetician's office. Get blue light treatments (it is a light that shines on your face for 16 minutes and 40 seconds one to two times per week). It kills the acne-causing bacteria. Also, I really recommend Obagi and Glymed products. I use the ClenziDerm M.D. acne therapeutic system made by Obagi. It works wonders on my face!
This stuff I mentioned is expensive, but totally worth it (blue light treatments cost about $50 per treatment; one kit of ClenziDerm costs about $130 but lasts a long time). Good luck :)

My cat has feline acne what should i use to treat it?
ive read alot online about it and it said to use peroxide and an anifungal, well ive been doin that but the anifungal im using is lamisil cream for like athletes foot or jock itch... not sure if this will help or not?
so is there something i might have or i could buy some what cheap at the store to use on his chin? i dont really have the money at the moment to take him to the vetMy cat has feline acne what should i use to treat it?
Well if it's acne than an antifungal is not going to do anything. Keep his food bowls clean, and if he has a plastic bowl I suggest getting a stainless steel, or ceramic bowl. You can keep his chin clean with mild soap and water solution, or you can go to the store and actually get sensitive/mild stridex pads and use those as well.My cat has feline acne what should i use to treat it?
My cat had the same thing on the sides of his face and by his lips. In his case it was caused my his plastic food and water dishes. If you are using plastic dishes you may want to take them away and replace them with glass or stainless steel. My vet also had me use benzoyl peroxide, which you can get in cremes( look at label of acene meds. for humans) form at Target or any drug store. It would save you a trip to the vet if that is all it is!
Take her too the vet home remedies like that often do not work. She could have a staff infection. My dog got that on her legs and it looked like puss filled pimples. She most likely needs to be put on oral antibiotics.
The humane society has programs that can help you pay for a vet visit and some vets have financing options but is should on cost around 70 -100 dollars in all.social networking

What can help me treat my acne and some thing i can do to lighten my face.?
PROACTIVE REFINING MASK. It contains Zinc. I occasionally suffer from razor irritation which leads to infected ingrown facial hairs. This stuff works great with my problem.

.Are there any other over the counter medicines for treating acne than benzoyl peroxide?
Ive been trying benzoyl peroxide (10%) for acne and it isnt working that great. is there anything else out there?.Are there any other over the counter medicines for treating acne than benzoyl peroxide?
The 4 main ingredients that are used for acne are: benzoyl peroxide (up to 20%); 2. salicylic acid 3. retinoids 4. sulfur. Then a doc can prescribe antibiotics and other modalities. Experiment with the sulfurs and the salicylates. You can also combine them with each other. STop if you experience irritation, peeling, excessive dryness etc..Are there any other over the counter medicines for treating acne than benzoyl peroxide?
Most acne products only treat the symptoms and not the source. Over the counter products such as gel and cream only make your skin dry %26amp; sensitive instead of treating acne at the source. Prolonged use can even lead to premature aging and other health issues.
The main causes of acne is toxins build up in the body and clogged pores caused by excessive oil and deadskin cells. These conditions provide a fertile ground for acne bacteria to spread and thrive.
To effectively fight acne and prevent acne from coming back, you have to attack acne from inside the body as well as outside on the skin. So, look for an acne product that fights acne internally as well as externally. They should also contains natural ingredients since they're more safer to use and has less side effects.
There are also things you can do at home to get rid of acne. Take actions to detoxify your body and take care of your skin and soon, you will permanently end your acne and have clear, radiant, beautiful skin!
For the next couple of weeks, stick to the regimen below:
-Drink a glass of warm water with lemon and honey in the morning and evening
-Drink lots of water throughout the day to flush out the toxins
-Eat oatmeal for breakfast
-Eat 2 cups of yogurt a day - yogurt boost ur immune system and contain microbiotic organisms that help your digestive system and control the acid/yeast
-Exercise regularly
-Eat lots of green veggies (organic if possible)
-Stay away from coffee, sugar, carbohydrates, fatty and fried food
-Wash your face in morning and evening with gentle cleanser, use natural toner, and follow up with oil-free moisturizer
