I really don’t have a lot of money to go see a dermatologist and I just wanna know if there is anything out there for me. I’ve used almost everything including ProActiv but all of it just seems to irritate my skin more. I just really want my face to be clear, I hate feeling so insecure all the time.

I got severe acne after using Murad Acne Complex. Then I started using SkinID, which has helped it clear up a lot. I still get several breakouts. I am 23yrs old. I used to use Women’s multivitamins during my worst acne breakout times, but then I recently went back to my Teen vitmns. However, I was wondering if there is one particular vitamin I could take that would help my acne go away? And yes, I drink lots of water

I’ve been struggling with Acne for many, many, many years and I’m and adult now and although I haven’t been breaking out much I have acne scars. I was considering cosmetic surgery but I don’t have the money and I’m afraid. Any suggestions.

There are home remedies for everything, how about this?

I’m not 17, I’m so against medicine so I was wondering if there’s something I can take for when I PMS, because It gets really bad. When I PMS I get bloated, acne, sweet cravings, anxiety, depressed, fatigue, irritated, I have difficulty concentrating… it’s awful, the worst part about psming for me is the depression, I just get really low and I hate school I become really insecure and extremely shy. I just want to get rid of it, so pleeeease help me out if you can. I’ll greatly appreciate it. Thank you =]

I use tretinoin every night for acne. Now I want to have Aramis Laser Treatment. Would that causes problems on my skin?

My skin has always been a nightmare since adulthood but, now that I am in my forties, I am having painful cystic breakouts. I am currently trying Retin A and have used every system I can think of. Is there actually something out there not too costly that I can do do have normal skin?

My boyfriend refuses to see a dermatologist (mainly because a: he hates doctors and b: we don’t have the money). I’d really like to know any home remedies or OTC things that would help or get rid of his acne.
By acne I mean, hard pimples beneath the surface, they are impossible to ‘pop’ and rarely go away and lots of large bumpy skin colored patches of blemishes, as well.

does any regular scar medicine work on acne scars? if so name some brands that are or were good for you, inexpensive preferably!

are there any home scar healing remedies? if you know of anything please list it. thank you so much!

I have cystic acne and am not wanting to take accutane. I do know of a couple of spas that do facials for cystic acne but want to do one myself. Any suggestions?
