Does oral acne medication get rid of your current acne or just prevent new acne?
tslal asked:
Or does it do both?
I’m on an oral acne medication and I haven’t been getting any new pimples, but its not getting rid of the current acne I have (I have mostly whiteheads). I’ve been on it for one week (its minocycline) I’m also using differin and a facewash so its not like im only using oral medicine but i just want to know how it works.
Also, what are the best oral acne medicines or what has worked for you?

Can I use acne treatments to fight my blackheads/whiteheads and pimples?
whosethatgurl101 asked:
I was thinking buying the Clean and Clear Acne control kit, and see if it helps with my blackheads/whiteheads and pimples. I used a lot of products, but none seemed to work.

What is the most effective non-prescription acne medication?
Helen of Troy asked:
I am a teenager and I get the normal whiteheads and the painful, long-lasting under-skin pimples as well. I have tried many types of acne medication and they have either been useless or made it worse. I have oily skin. My acne is not really severe, but it is still painful and embarrassing. What would be the best thing for me to use? Thank you so much!

A solution to get rid of whiteheads?
milacvetkovic asked:
I have seen the commercials and went on the site for the Murad Acne Complex solution, and I’m interested in knowing whether it also works on mild acne such as whiteheads. I’ve had whiteheads on my cheeks for a pretty long time, and now that’s it’s winter, they seem to be getting worse since my skin is getting dryer. I want to try the 30$ kit, but I’m unsure if the kit is only for acne such as pimples and zits, or also for moderate acne like blackheads and whiteheads.

Murad Acne Complex- Purging?
BlueJeanBaby asked:
So I’ve been using Murad for a few days and while the texture of my skin is softer and better, my breakouts are worse. I’ve stopped using the treatment gel as it made my face really red (I was an idiot and used it twice a day as instructed without letting my skin get used to it) and am now using the T-Zone Pore Regining Gel in place.
So I’ve been using Murad for a few days and while the texture of my skin is softer and better, my breakouts are worse. I’ve stopped using the treatment gel as it made my face really red (I was an idiot and used it twice a day as instructed without letting my skin get used to it) and am now using the T-Zone Pore Regining Gel in place.
However, my skin is now in the so-called “purging” phase- little whiteheads along my mouth and cheeks, placed I’ve never gotten acne before. How long should this last before I see results? I had read a load of bad reviews after I bought and began using it (I had read only positive things on Sephora before filtering, and I also kept in mind everyone’s skin is different). I’m mainly curious about the purging… Is there anything I can do to lessen the blow?
I’m 20 by the way.
I forgot to add- I called a skin care rep at Murad and told them that it was making my face red and was advised to switch gels as the T-Zone one is way less harsh yet still effective, and use a gentle moisturizer. So the redness is now gone a day later as my skin has calmed down… But now the breakouts. =/ If it keeps up, any other brands? I’ve tried:
Proactive
Neutrogena (basically everything)
Clean & Clear
Nature’s Cure
Clinique
Differin (perscription)
Nogzema
Aveda
Burt’s Bees
St. Ives
Clearisil

ACNE Treatments?
Krissy asked:
My dermatologists gave me benziq wash and tretinoin cream for my acne (whiteheads everywhere) over a year ago. I tried it but my face got so irritated that I stoped using it. I’m going to try it again but after researching online I found that you should never use benzol with retin-a…is this true?
