Acne Natural Remedies

I am still very young, and have had many medications to treat my severe acne.
I started with topical creams and infection creams, blue-ray light treatment, then to antibacterial pills, and now I have been taking accutane for the past four months. In the course of these months, they have upped my prescription from one to two a day.

Though the accutane is helping a bit, I still have discolored, shallow scars from the acne. Because I am still young, my dermatologist has suggested I wait till my skin naturally rids of the bad skin. But i know most of the scars are here to stay.

What can I do for treatment? I have heard of things like microdermabrasion, but I dont know much about it. Is there any way I can get rid of these scars without going into surgery or under the knife/lazer?

Acne is an inflammatory skin disorder of the face, back, and chest. Although it is usually associated with hormone during puberty, it can also affect many adults. Whiteheads, blackheads, and pimples, result from an overgrowth of bacteria in oil-clogged pores. Keeping the skin clean is very important in helping to control acne, as taking vitamins, minerals, and herbal supplements, as wells as healthy eating and exercise habits, can be very beneficial.

OVERNIGHT PASTE = Honey, wheat flour, and vinegar, use it to lightly cover a new outbreak of pimples overnight, rinse off in the morning. This should accelerate the healing process.

ACNE TREATMENT = Use a clean travel size bottle to mix 1 part vinegar and 10 parts water. Clean your face as usual in the morning, then carry this bottle and a few cotton balls with you so you can dab acne spots several times during the day. This solution shouldn’t dry out your skin, and the vinegar will help return your skin to a natural pH balance. This treatment may also help prevent future acne outbreaks. Discontinue use if irritation worsens.

Doing Aerobic exercise daily will help sweat the acne away.
Try a Detoxification.
Drink 6 - 8 glasses of filtered water daily.
Eat more raw vegetables.
Eat yogurt with live cultures.

I was wondering if any one had any ways to take away acne, i have very fair skin andi was wondering if you know anything or anything besides home remedies, like proactive… when i say remedies i mean like face masks or pasts! and does anyone know where you can buy a face wash called labrie i don’t know how to spell it !! BUT can you mostly tell me home remedies

Here are some home remedies! Have fun!

I’ve tried every product out there. None of them have worked for me. & I can’t buy the expensive stuff.
So are there any home remedies out there that get rid of acne?

These are simple…I use them about once every two weeks to maintain clear skin.
Mix:
2 tablespoons yogurt (plain)
1 teaspoon lemon (or lime) juice.
-mix thoroughly and spread over face. Leave on 3-5 minutes, than rinse.

Another one is creating a mixture of salt water. Boil a cup of water (it’ll end up being about a 1/2 cup), put in bowl and mix in 3-5 tablespoons of salt. Wash face thoroughly using a washcloth soaked in the solution.

I hope these help you!
Best wishes,

I’ve been reading up on home remedies to help get rid of acne, but everything I find suggests using ingredients I’ve never heard of…rose water, cinnamon powder, etc.

Are there any home remedies for acne that only involve everyday household items? Thanks
Well, if you’ve never heard of cinnamon I’m not sure what you consider everyday household items. However, what you eat has an influence on your acne. Stay away from food with a lot of sugar, saturated fats, alcohol, coffee, chocolate, fried foods, nuts, milk and milk products, and oil based cosmetics for a start.

With all that, what can you eat? Lots of fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables, ocean fish like tuna or salmon, tofu, pumpkin seeds, chick peas, beets, sprouts, fresh mint, fresh basil, and fresh parsley.

There are also herbal tinctures that a naturopathic physician or an herbalist can give to you to help balance your hormones and purify your body.

You can also take Vitamin A [50,000 IU a day for three days] and Zinc [45 mg a day].
