Comments on How to Treat Pimples

When a pimple appears, and you squeeze it (which is wrong), it reddens up. If you don't want it to swell, then use some iodine, a little on the pimple, which I put before I sleep, and I see great effects, after a week or so, the pimple disappears.

I've always had a problem with pimples on my forehead right before my period. I've tried everything. But this works for me: Seep a quarter of a cup of green tea as hot as you can make it. Dab a cotton ball into the tea and apply to face for 15 minutes and take two ibuprofen. Works wonders!

Cut up a lemon and dab it over your pimple for about 5 minutes. You'll see it getting smaller. Trust me.

Wash your face with tepid water (warm). Hot water breaks the capillaries in your face. Also look for products that contain AHA's or BHA's. AHA or alpha hydroxy acid's exfoliate the outer layer of skin and do not exfoliate inside the pore. But, BHA's (Salycilic Acid) exfoliate in the pore and on the surface layer of the skin. Also look for masks with sulfur which will reduce redness. Benzoyl Peroxide is also great in a product because it is an anti bacteria agent. Also a cleanser with manual exfoliaters. But make sure the manual exfoliaters are completely round, because if there not they can scratch and tear at the skin. Also don't forget to moisturize and drink lots of water, roughly 2 liters a day. But, don't drink more than that because then it is to much water and it is bad for you.

I have tried so many different brands of skin products and most of them had no real affect on my acne/blemishes. I then went to a dermatologist and she prescribed me with Duac and another topical gel. Nothing seemed to work. I did however notice ads for Proactiv. I thought that it was another one of those 'not worth your while' advertisements. I tried it and at first I got OK results. Then they directed me to the Extra Strength Formula. I have seen such a big difference in my skin. I also suffer from oily skin. If you suffer from oily skin try: Proactiv Oil Control, Oil Free Moisturizer, Sheer Magnifying Gel. Also during the day get Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets. They help me so much during my days at school. If this advice doesn't help you, I wish you the best of luck though finding something that really does cure your acne problem. Also just to let you know don't avoid fatty foods,/ junk foods or greasy foods because their not the cause of your acne. They're not good for your body, but they're not the cause of acne. And also remember you're not alone!

Swimming is good for your acme because the chlorine in the pool kills all bacteria on your face and body. Swim once or twice a day, it should be almost all gone in a week or so.

Whenever I have a pimple, I put a big glob of Clearasil or Persa-gel on the pimple overnight and it dries it right up! It has to be name brand though, otherwise it does not work. I have found this works just like the toothpaste method.

One day I wasn't going anywhere so I decided to skip showering. The natural oil caused my face to break out the next day. Even if you intend on watching TV and being lazy, make sure to shower and cleanse your face every day! Otherwise, the oil clogs your pores.

If you drink 7 tall glasses of water each and every day, and stay far far away from sugar, you will have blemish free skin. Just put yourself in a routine of drinking water only and get used to it. That's the hardest part.

My 13 year old daughter has really started to break out within the last year (hormones?). We have tried so many different products and haven't found anything that really works. She has more than just the simple zit once a month. She is covered from her hair line to her jaw line. We can see how it has started to affect her self-esteem. I contacted a plastic surgeon re: Levulan with Blu-U light.

If you have oily skin, use soap mixed with some salt, wash your face with your hands using a light touch. Rinse and dry. Salt draws and dries. If your skin is on the dry side, use sugar instead of salt. The sugar should do the same thing.

Wash your face and put some Windex on the zits with a Q-tip. Rub gently, do this about 2 or 3 times a day.

I had really bad acne for about 5 years and I was teased a lot. So after trying tons of face washes, Proactive and other things, I went to the Dermatologist. Since I had really bad acne, he told me to try taking this pill once a day for at least 5 months. Wow, it worked so well. For my acne scars he told me to use moisturizing scar lotion. It works really well, too. Don't be afraid to go to the dermatologist!

All you have to do is to wash your face three times a day; once in the morning, again in the afternoon and again right after dinner. Make sure that the soap you're using is clean, only use one particular bar of soap for your face, not for anything else. And stay away from the fries and junk food!

Get some honey; make sure it has the wax on it, you know - the one get from the farms. Put it to on your face for about 30 minutes - 1 hour every day for 2 weeks.

I'm 12 years old and have acne. I haven't been eating any chocolate or fast food for about a week. All of a sudden my pimples started disappearing. Every now and then a new one would start appearing, I would wash my face, pop the zit, then put toothpaste on it, before I go to bed. And the next day, I wipe off the toothpaste and the pimple is dried out.

My Father-in-law has had a problem with pimples for years. He once told me at bedtime he puts a piece of medical tape (the white tape that is used with gauze normally) directly on the pimple. He said this has worked great for him!

Everything I have ever used on my pimples has made my face worse and dried out. Then I used Bior+¬ Ice cleanser. It works great, you can actually fell it working!

Tips: 1. Rub tooth paste one it. 2. Drink lots of water. 3. Wash face every night with face cleaning supplies or hot water. 4. Put lotion on it. 5. Sleep with soap around the pimple.
