exercise regularly and dont touch your face with your hands unless you are washing and you have will have better skin and be significantly more attractive

>>10828375
this is actually gold.
How do you expect your acne to disappear when you constantly touch it to see how disgusting it is, putting oil on it everytime you touch it with your greassy fingers.

>>10828365
I used to require various products and creams, then I cleaned up my diet when I started exercising and I have hardly had any issue since

>>10828446

Wrinkles are caused by stronger face muscles. Face yoga trains those muscles, thus ages you. See botox basically killing those muscles to make the wrinkles go away.

Are dermatologists legit or should I not bother?

>>10829182
what facewash do you use? post pics of that greasy skin of yours

>>10830428
>are trained professionals legit

bro...

>>10830428
depends on who you see. if you end up with one who knows what they're doing then it's definitely worth it. i had moderate acne and i went to a derm, got prescribed an antibiotic and got perfect skin for like a year, no acne whatsoever
now 2 years later my skin's shit again and i'm seeing another derm in two days kek
but yeah it's so worth it

I always get these boils and shit on my legs and they leave these gross purple welts that take forever to fade, anyone got an suggestions?

>>10830628
yeah that sounded retarded. just meant if they would significantly help, moreso than I could just help myself.
>>10830643
sounds good

I have a lot of blackheads. I look good from far away but closeup I'm nast. I hope people don't notice as much as I think they do.

>>10831002
if you have legitimate issues or don't think listening to people on the internet will help, then yeah they're a pretty good bet. Just make sure you don't have shit medical providers who'd rather see you suffer to get more out of you.
most people won't notice, which is what hurts most when you're on /fa/ -- most people really really really don't care what you look like, regardless of your shortcomings or swag fits.

>>10829384
Wash your pillowcase often(once or twice a week), and change your diet. Grease, and if lactose intolerant, milk can cause breakouts.
Also consider if you have dry skin, which will also lead to breakouts. Consider a moisturizer or water based lotion.

>>10829366
Most Aloe Vera gels have alcohol, if I recall, which can potentially dry your skin.

>>10828365
I had terrible acne that would not go away no matter what I did. And trust me, I tried everything,I would get nasty cysts and whiteheads all over. I have now been on accutane for about 5 months and I am 100% acne free. Seriously... not one in like a month. It's amazing since I have had acne issues since I was in middle school. All I have to do now is moisturize. I still eat healthy and exercise but accutane is truly a wonder drug.

every week or two I get a big whitehead. What do I do with it? Last one I just let be and I think it might have scarred, at least it left a little mark.

How can I relieve redness where there was acne?

>>10829406
You should go on a Retin A / Azelaic Acid regimen as soon as you can.

Blackheads on forehead is generally an early sign of acne that will develop later on.

The regimen I suggested can be supplied by a dermatologist or through an online dermatologist.

You will also want Antibiotics to prevent inflammation of cysts.

Acutane if you can afford it

>>10829339
pls respond. i never get a respond to this q

>>10832692
Drink water, don't touch your face.

Is it good or bad if acne starts to scab over rather than being inflamed to the touch?

I have some shallow scars that are kind of wide and crater like, I don't know how I got them but is there anything I can do to make them go away?

Anybody there suffers from couperosis like me? Tried special creams against it and drunk skin vitamins, but shit doesn't go away. It's gone after I sleep well but returns in the couse of the day.

Okay wash your face with a good quality cleanser every morning and night, I recommend Boscia. follow up with a toner, nothing with a strong Alcohol base, that will dry out your skin. I use tea tree oil that I pour into hot water and let the steam clean my pores. Use a moisturizer always, otherwise your skin will get to dry, or if it is oily it will produce more oil to make up for lack of moisture, I use Bobbi Brown. always use eye cream, pat it lightly, don't smear it. Drink towns of water, don't eat a ton of salt.

If none of this shit works it might be your genetics too.

>>10830336

>>10831819
Moisturizer, sunblock, monthly microdermabrasion, exfoliate twice a week and drink lots of water

my middle upper lip is seriously fucked up
it's been like this for a year and I moisturizer it daily but it keeps fucking peeling off
If anyone knows how to end this torture I would really appreciate it

I just put coconut oil on my face in the shower and wash it off , it's good moisturizer

Face is completely smooth with the occasional bump I just have deep red spots where acne used to be. What do I do?

>>10838394
what lip balm do you use? a lot of them actually just dry your lips out. that looks weird af and maybe you should see a doctor

How do I get skin like the guy in this music video?

might be easier to understand what I mean when the video gets to the bright part.
