blackheads/acne scarring

cheeky_monkey · 08-07-2009, 01:41 PM

Im 19 and have suffered from bad skin for many years. I have tried all sorts of different products and even several things prescribed from my doctor. none have seemed to work and now i find that when i get spots they always scar but i dont know why this is.
is there any recommened products you have found to be really good at clearing up bad skin and also the scars?
I also suffer from blackheads around my t-zone and can't seem to make them budge!

I usually just wash my face with Clean&Clear and go. I tried all those fancy medications and washes for my face and they irritated it even more. :/ Find a soap bar made just for the face and use it.

Also, buy some of those Biore blackhead removal strips. I love them. ^_^

To clear up skin is a pretty vague request but no worries I'll try my best =). First of all it'd help tremendous if i knew exactly what kind of skin problem we're dealing with but some general information might help. So here we go.

As far as the scarring, I'm assuming it might be acne related? Even if it's not try this: use baking soda to wash the affected area of your body. You see baking soda is a very effective exfoliant but more important it is also a natural PH balancer.

You could also use apple cider but it may cause you to smell bad. So to minimize the smelling effect you could dilute the apple cider with a small amount of water and wash the affected area before going to sleep. Repeat that for two to three weeks. Don’t worry too much about the smell; it will slowly fade away as the solution dries up on your skin. If this isnt enough...vitamin K lotion...vitamin K lotion and even more vitamin K lotion.

I can give you a home based skin cleansing routine but first i need to know what kind of skin we're dealing with (oily, dry, normal?)

And finally here's some things you can do for those pesky blackheads...

Honey: Honey is really good for your skin. If you apply warm honey on the affected area and wash it after 10 minutes, you will benefit a lot. Honey will act as a natural peel to your blackhead affected skin. Besides, removing blackheads, it will also improve your skin.

Fenugreek is a powerful anti-blackhead herb. To cure your blackheads crush some fenugreek leaves and make a paste with water. Apply this on the affected area for 10-15 minutes. And rise with lukewarm water. This will curtail blackhead growth. For clear skin, free from blackheads, apply this paste every night before bed. This will prevent blackheads and is good home remedy for blackheads.

Hope this helps...good luck sweetie =)

I also suffer with acne, all of us have different body types and there are no quick solutions. If you use a product, you have to be consistent about using it. Stress is a huge contributor to acne. The number one fight against acne is enough sleep with a good diet and exercise, but easy said than done. Need to get many expert opinions because maybe they can recommend something for you that will fight your type of problem.
