How do i clear my acne?

>>38641125
if under 25, wait til youre 25
if over, quit dairy

fuck your acne

theres information on the internet about clean skin habits. change your sheets, dont touch your face, get a proper routine etc. if you're serious you can put it that 20min of research

however i just recommend visiting a professional dermatologist

>>38641125
his book is going to get soaking wet

Use a shower gel with tea tree oil in it. It helped me.

>>38641125
I have started washing my body off with soap everytime I shower because of work. Helps kill my upper body acne and I think it helps my face too. Keep in mind I only started seeing results after 3 weeks.

get on keto my man

fresh washed towel on pillow

D-did you not use soap before?

benzyl peroxide 10% creme, get it at a pharmacy its like 3$. Get an acne cleanser and face moisturizer too, clean ur face 2-3 times a day and put on the benzyl shit over ur acne and moisturize

make sure to sleep on ur back

>>38641658
>he didn't use soap before
Europoor pls go

No dairy, fresh sheets, whatever else you can think of is worthless.

Time for accutane brah

Go on Roaccutane and fuck up your body. Whatever you do don't eat right, clean yourself or refresh your pillow case. Thats just madness.

there are a couple options for you

>Use topical acne products such as benzoyl peroxide, adapalene
>Watch what you eat carefully, keep in mind your acne triggers whenever you eat
>Be sure to never touch your face at all, when you wake up you will have fresh acne no matter what you do
>Maintain a careful acne regemen to control your acne

OR

>Go on isotretinoin for 6 months
>Possibly (low chance) fuck up liver, joints, night vision, etc.
>Essentially 100% chance of acne going away for good


There really is no good solution. Is your acne cystic? For cystic acne, it usually won't even respond to topical acne products. I've had an acne cyst on my neck for the past 3 years.

If you have sensitive skin, try this regimen, it works well for me:
>Doxycycline 50mg 2x a day (Easy as fuck prescription to get, might not need it once you get your acne under control with other parts of regimen)
>CeraVe foaming facial cleanser in morning and at night
>Follow up with benzoyl peroxide cream/facewash/whatever
>Cerave moisturizer (the stuff in the tub)
shit ain't cheap but it lasts a while and it's worth a try if it means clear skin.

go to your doctor and tell them you've tried everything and nothing works, then get something prescribed.
I used to have horrendous acne on my face. I got refered to a skin specialist who gave me some tablets that dried my skin the fuck out and make me flake all over the place in 3 months straight but the acne went away and never came back.

Honestly either follow the Acne.org regime or go on acutane. I've been on acutane before and suffered basically no side effects other then dry skin (which is kinda the point).

Hormonal acne is a thing.

>>38641914
Shut the fuck up you clear faced fool

You dont know shit and are ignorant as fuck, yet are spouting memes like you know what youre talkimg about

FUCK YOU

>pillow cases are the main cause of acne

Wow what a joke

>>38641125
I've had acne my whole life as well, still have a pimples here and there. Just stop using soap on your face. Just use water.

You have an entire ecosystem living on your face, and every time you use soap, you are killing off the good bacteria as well as the bad.

Seriously though it's worked for me like crazy, also try not to pop any zits at all

Hear me out, go to a Dillard's/Macy's or whatever you have nearby and get the Clinique acne treatment. It's a three step treatment and it worked wonders on my acne

OP I had some serious acne in my early and mid-20s. I don't mean whiteheads/blackheads, I mean huge cysts that don't come to a head. They were big, red, noticeable and lasted for weeks. I could have a few of these mini volcanos on my face at a time. I was ashamed to leave the house. I couldn't speak to someone face to face without feeling massively self consious. I tried all kinds of cremes potions and antibiotics, non worked. Suicide was not far round the corner.

I'm 26 now and haven't really had a spot come up in 6 months. Literally like it stopped overnight. No change in diet, cleaning regime etc, no meds.

It will go away OP, don't worry.

>be fraud
>acne when young but cleared up when 20
>start cheating
>acne like I'm 13 again
Why God I just want to be 2 swole 2 control

I have only found 1 thing which helped with acne. Tetracycline. Its a pill I take 2 times a day recommended by my doctor. Everything else has never worked

Stop taking roids

I use Cetaphil, (both cleaner and moisturizer) in the shower and before I go to bed. Change your sheets often, including pillowcase, bedsheet, and cover sheet. Basically anything that tocuhes your face that could get grease soaked into it.

The number one thing that helped however is going to a dermatologist. He prescribed me doxycycline and benzoyl peroxide. Benzoyl peroxide burns like a motherfucker at first and it makes it red(from irratation) but this eventually goes away and the results are worth it. Call your doctor and ask for an appointment before you post on a stupid anime board again.

don't use lemon on your face, and honestly, don't fuck with it using tons of products with tons of harsh chemicals. i saw the most progress, personally, after stoping everything, and only rubbing my face with water in the shower, of course, this may not work for you, being that all skin is different. if you're under 17, it might just go away, my skin is pretty much perfect now at 19.

Piggy?

I have legit only had like three pimples my whole life. My brother has horrible acne still into his late 20s and has tried everything. Life is weird.

I had acne for a while. Eventually I went to a dermatologist and they prescribed minocycline and it cleared up in 3 months.

Isotretinoin.
Twice a day for a year.

Acne is an infection, one that must be treated with adequate medicine and following a doctor's indication.
Do not drink alcohol or use while pregnant.

Also, if your'e under 19 just wait for your puberty to stop for christs sake.

>>38641125

Stop fapping, stop touching your face, wash your face daily with some sort of acne treatment and soap. Most importantly, drink a gallon of water a day.

>>38641664
this every night took me from severe cystic acne to 100% clear (aside from scarring) within 3 weeks. If you sleep at all on your side or stomach, have acne, and you aren't doing this every night, then now you know your problem.

>>38641125

Cut out dairy and chocolate. I had brutal acne until I was 17, and it went away almost immediately with a change in diet.
Try it OP, if it doesn't go away after a week, go back to guzzling milk and throw your money at chemical solutions.

Cut out dairy and chocolate
Wash your face every day

Strongly consider going to a doctor and getting accutane (aka isotretinoin)

I took isotretinoin a few years ago in my late teens and it fixed my acne quickly, thoroughly, and permanently

Get a clindamycin/tretinoin cream, and exfolliate. Holy shit I love exfolliation, my skin is so clean and smooth.

>>38641148
this is correct, no milk, cheese, ice cream is the worst, and lay the fuck off sugar
i had acne my whole life until I fix my diet and now mt skin is like CHADS

Clearing your face is like getting gains: consistency if fucking key, and you have to work your body outside AND inside.

First step if you haven't done so: get Rx strength topical shit. Don't waste money and time with Wal-Mart shelved crap:
>schedule a check-up
>ask for help with your acne and say "I'm concerned about my face scarring and want to avoid long-term problems."
>Get adapalene, clindamycin, or whatever the fuck Doc prescribes you
Accutane is some last-resort shit; don't fuck with it

Cleaning from the outside:
>nothing, and I mean NOTHING touches your face.
>Not hands, not pillows, not blankets, not shampoo, and especially not hands unless you know they're clean.
>popping and picking pimples count as touching your face
>AND it will lead to permanent scarring
>replace your pillowcase often
>wash your face only *twice* a day with a *cold* water doused washcloth, no soap
>washing your face too much will irritate it and will wipe all oils from the face and cause the body to overcompensate with sebum overproduction
> <10min shower with cool or luke-warm water, hot water destroys natural oils
>get good sleep
>fap less (fapping -> hormones -> acne)
>stick with the medicine that Doc gave you and follow instructions

Cleaning from the inside:
>Avoid acne triggers: Dairy, sugars, coffee, peanut butter, soy milk, junk food, fast food
>FUCK AWAY FROM MILK
>no dairy, no milk, no cheese, etc.
>Whey is a byproduct of cheese production, thus is dairy
>FUCK AWAY FROM SUGAR
>no sodas, sweets, bread, carbs, etc.
>adopt a low carb diet
>Diet with fruit, vegetables, low-carb
>take Magnesium, Zinc, Fish Oil Omega 3's, Vitamin D supplements in ascending order of importance
>Go outside minimum 15 minutes a day of full body exposure to the sun for Vitamin D to receive necessary daily intake

>humans have survived thousands of years with 12 hours of sun, daily
>humans have survived thousands of years without soap

Follow all this bullcrap and your face should be Chad-tier.

>>38641125
Eating properly, showering at night and boots face wash helped me

Add more berries, fish, and whatnot to your western diet, and replace vegetable oil with coconut oil or olive oil when cooking.
Since you're on /fit/ you most likely already follow a good diet with water, lean-meats, and moderate fats and carbs.

Word of advice is to keep at it. You won't get swole overnight, or over the week, or probably not in a couple months. Same goes for acne.
Be consistent and stay /fit/.
