I ttok some pills for 3 months when I was 14. Wasn't allowed to drink alcohol under any surcumstance due to the liver being pressured by pills.
Don't remember their name, but they helped a ton. I look like someone who never had bad acne

Will take some time though

You probably have oily acne prone skin. After washing your face with a cleanser at night, use an astringent like witch hazel and then put on your moisturizer. Acne scars will go away if you use a dark spot serum

>>14737127
You can opt for Tretinoin instead of accutane, it speeds cell turnover so it will help fade the scarring. Once acne is gone you can use a Vit C serum to fade the rest.

Holy fuck are you that asshole who made that thread threatening to burn his face to get rid of his acne the other day???

TRADER JOES TEA TREE OIL EVERY. DAY. BEFORE BED AND WHEN YOU WAKE UP. YOU ARE WELCOME.

You would see results already if your stupid ass actually followed my advice. Im tired of seeing these threads about acne when you could literally spend $7 and get rid of ance for good.

If you're suffering from depression, the book 'Feeling Good' by MD David Burns can help.
It's about cognitive-behavioral therapy, a successful treatment for depression, dealing with negative thinking patterns.

(if you don't want to use Mediafire, look for it on libgen.is - it's a good site for PDFs in general - browse/download at your own discretion).

Also listen to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmDwl2-IZEk
It's an audiobook of 'Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway' by Susan Jeffers, a self-help book on overcoming anxiety.

You can also try some St. John's Wort (it's a plant) tea for immediate relief (I mix mine with Melissa for the calming effect).

It might also be nice to learn to meditate, as it can relieve your mind of negative thoughts. nperov.com for learning materials.

wash your face when you wake up and before you go to bed

wash your face 1h after every meal with cetaphil or something weak.

change your cotton pillow case every single night

don't wear hats

keep your hair clean and not at all greasy

eat healthy food in general. the more grease you eat the more it ends up on your face

All the advice in this thread is shit, OP.

If you have androgen receptors that are more receptive to DHT causing an uptick in hormonal cystic acne then no amount of cleaning your face, swapping your bedsheets, or avoiding hats is going to help make that go away. Bottom line, the root cause of your acne is most likely hormonal in nature and what isotretinoin/accurane does is it blocks the conversion of select 5-alpha-reductase and DHT on your skin among blocking acne causing enzymes.

If you're not going to take isotretinoin orally, then take doxycycline antibiotics that have fewer side effects but works the same. If you're going to apply anything topically, get some benzyl-peroxide cream and tretinoin.

If you're being suggested accutane from a dermatologist, then you probably have more than just the occasional breakout. Nothing over the counter is going to help you and you'll be wasting more money than the prescription costs for these medications that actually do work.

I took it for 12 months in 2008. Been suicidal ever since. Its all I think about. It got rid of the acne though. But no way is it worth having to pretend you're cheery 24/7. My older brother told me not to do it and to just ride out the acne, he had 2 mates who took it and both ended up taking their lives at 16. I should've listened.

i took different pills like antibiotics and shiet for 2 years when i was 16 they didn't help a bit. i was clean, washing my face with expensive solutions, changing pillows every day. after two years i just took accutane for 8 months (i was 80kg at that time) and they were gone at the end of the 8m of treatment. it's been 4 years since i stopped taking accutane and i'm fine. no side effects for me desu. just ask to your doctor and t'll be fine. don't listen to those fags who say my brother's friend took it and get fucked to death. acne effects your daily life and you should do something about it.

Get a basic routine with salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide first + cleanser and moisturizer ofc

Then if that doesnt work get retinoids

Then get accutane

you either take hormones or antibiotes or you suffer from acne

usually the side effects are worse than the acne

honestly, go to r/skincareaddiction
almost all the advice in this thread is terrible and will fuck u up
redditors are annoying but they're general helpful and nerdy

do not wash your face more than 2x a day
always mositurize even if you have oily skin
use serums/treatments with active ingedients, but start slow (1-2x a week) and never combine actives. retinol, salicylic acid, glycolic acid, etc exfoliate the skin and prevent acne
patience, simple skincare, good diet and lifestyle habits will work. unless you have severe acne due to hormones, you should see a dermatologist in that case

Try see a good dermatoligist if its bad.

Ive been using every meme facewash and cream I could get with little to no effect.

Derm looked at my face for like 20 seconds and he said I had fungal acne. He has given me a cream and my skins pretty much come back to normal after a week.

Everyone just likes to self diagnose what they have but just be aware it could be something else.

THIS.

OP, I've been on isotretinoin (accutane) for a couple months now, about to start my 3rd month. I can tell you that before I took it, I had tons of suicidal thoughts and depressive moods. And afterwards, I've felt fine. Maybe just a coincidence, or I'm a unicorn, idk.

Anyway, my acne was purely hormonal and no amount of washing or diet would fix it. It was really bad on my chin/mouth and neck. 2 months in and the acne on my face and neck are GONE. Still have some cystic breakouts on my shoulders and back but not nearly as much as it used to be. 4 months to go.

I recommend doing it.

double cleansing, niacinamide, a good moisturizer for acne prone skin & rose hip oil for scarring.

>> No.14741181

Ight i'd say my advice is reliable don't listen to idiots that has never had actual bad fucking skin except occasional zits. A shit ton of chemicals isn't going to do shit and these "skin care routine" bitches with clear skin would still not have bad skin even if they stopped with their routine.
First off, cut out all processed and sugary foods, minimize Meat cpnsumption, cut out dairy, eat a shit ton of vegetables and drink alot of water. This is The most basic shit that even clear skin normies Will tell you and it's True. Second of all, most skin care products do not work on People with actual bad skin and most moisturizers and cleansers would make me wake up with even more zitz. Most cleansers and moisturizers contain a bunch of chemicals that may reduce oil which is bad because The skin Will overcompensate by creating more sebum.
Anyways, honey is the only natural cleanser that worked for me and aloe vera is The only moisturizer that worked. Don't shower to much since it Will dry out your skin and make it produce extra sebum so shower AT Most once a Day and always wash your face in The morning and evening, wash your hands, don't pick at your skin because it will only make inflammation worse and you'll get a bunch of shit clogging your pores, eat good, exercise because it will stabalize your hormones, change your pillow case Every 3 or 2 days, get enough sleep, and don't stress too much. I wish someone told me this in 7th grade so I didn't have to suffer for 7 years and now I have so much fucking scarring but at least my face is clear.
Sorry if the text is messy lmao and remember to stay happy anon, if you treat your body right it will reward you in return. Oh and derma roll plus aloe vera to get rid of scarring.

Accutane was the only thing that cured my acne
Never had any kind of mood swings or bad side effects
The only ones that were kinda annoying were the dry lips and little nose hemorrhages
