How do I get rid of back acne in less than 2 weeks?
I’m going on vacation. I have a bikini that exposes my upper back, which unfortunately is covered with back pimples/zits/red spots.
What are some products I can use to get rid of them before my vacation? I don’t use any lotion or creams on my back regularly. I bought the acne body scrub, but that doesn’t seem to help.
And, what else can I do to get rid of this? Like, a particular clothing, etc.

Some sun should help. Not too much though. Also switch to a more fruits and vegetables and cut out fried everything.
start using the acne product tht u use on ur face for ur back (u may need help getting it on there). . and when u shower make sure u wash ur back after shampooing. . . .most bacne is caused cuz shampoo sits on ur back and irrates ur pores
Cotton clothing ONLY!! Do not wear polyester under ANY circumstances.
Use your body scrub with a good long-handled bath brush or loofah. Also use an alcohol-based toner afterward. It’ll probably sting, but that’s okay. Dry those pimples out. The skin on your back is the thickest on the entire body — it can take it.
wash it with head and shoulders classic clean. leave on there for a while. nothing over 10 minutes though. then your skin will get red. Never expect a quick fix though. This may take 2-4 weeks
I used to have the same issue…you definitely need to be sure to clean your back well with soap and use the exfoliation every other day. BUT BE SURE TO MOISTURIZE after, with an OIL FREE lotion. Aloe lotion works well, and so does Clinique’s oil-free moisturizing gel. If they’re oozy zits, I would suggest purchasing the Proactiv system. That’s what I used to get the initial process going. Then for maintenance purposes, regular cleaning and moisturizing. Don’t over exfoliate, though, because your skin will then just make more oil to compensate. Hope this helps!!!
theres dat natures cure bacne spray u can buy at drugstores.
i had acne on my back and i my mom bought a rag thats kind of abrasive but is used for exfoliating ur body for me. after a week i looked at my back and it reeeeally cleared up. even the acne scars were gone. that was a pleasant surprise. but anyways, that was my solution that may or may not work for you. if not, then im sure a dermatologist can recommend something specifically for your skin. best wishes.

you said you bought a scrub which you shouldn’t have, you need a cleanser just like your face. Neutrogena has a body cleanser that works great. and maybe you aren’t giving the scrub enough time. use the scrub with the cleanser and moisturize regularly. but not a heavy lotion a light lotion. and by the way there is no quick little miralcle!
drink lots of water, lay off sugars and sweets to help flush your system and make sure you dry off VERY well. Also wear breathable clothing
Dear Cosette,
One word: Tretinoin!
Your dermatologist can prescribe Tretinoin/Tretinoid. This is a topical derivative of Vitamin A and it’s effective at diminishing and erasing dark spots. It’s the best product against acne. Apply is at night and it will control the growth of new acne. You will see improvements within 3-4 days.
