Pay a dermatologist a visit. They have some good treatments available. Also examine the changes in your eating habits that you might have unconciously made. With acne you should avoid fatty food products. Also acidic stuff is not good for your skin. You should curb anything lemony and citrussy. This includes tomatos. Also avoid things like soda and fast food for a while. Buy ph neutral soap (ph 0). And if possible, soak up 15 minutes of sun each day for the vitamin D.

Stay away from things with benzoyl peroxide, as this will make your skin produce more oil. What's helped most with me so far is using a toner or peel with glycolic acid. 5% for a toner and 30%-50% for the peel, which you use about twice a month. It helps with the current pimples and with scarring. The dermotologist can also prescribe cleansers that help. Laser treatments can definately help reduce the scarring and acne, but my experience is that these are fairly short lived (the acne reduction, not the scar reduction.) Good luck - acne's definatley not fun.... From what I've read, Accutane is really the only thing that can permanently rid you from acne but it's really hard on your body.

hi you can try powdered fenugreek with turmeric and milk... i think it cools and rejuvinate your skin and also control occurence of pimples and scars... you can also use dried powder of neem leaves ...it is very good for your skin and also reduces pimples..

Hi, if you are sure that it is acne, try using natual products such as soaps and noncomedogenic mositurizers containing tea tree essential oil.

i suggest you try using anti-acne facial wash, don't use cream, avoid holding or touching your face. keep your face clean and avoid foods that can trigger break-outs
