Q: I have acne all over my back.

Are there any creams or scrubs that are really good and can cure the acne quick?

Thanks.
Hey!!

I found this on proactive's websight..
There's still no cure for acne, with or without a prescription. The secret to controlling acne is PREVENTION - stopping the formation of acne before it becomes a visible pimple. To avoid the risk of permanent scars, it's important to treat acne as soon as the first signs appear. Even after blemishes disappear, you usually must continue to use an effective acne treatment to keep new blemishes from forming. Proactiv Solution is safe and effective for everyone, and it can help prevent blemishes from becoming a larger problem.
So to sum that all up, I honestly dont think there really is a way to clear acne 'quick'. Proactive takes about a month to work, and i do know from experience that it DOES work.

Taking showers daily and using body wash will also help reduse your acne. But make sure you arent irritating your skin by rubbing too hard.
Overwashing can actually make blemishes worse.

Some things you can do include:
*Avoid excessive sun exposure
*Check your vitamin supplements-avoid supplements with iodine in amounts greater than the RDA of 150mcg
*Avoid over washing
*Dont pick at your skin
*Avoid making contact with the acne prone areas
*Reduce stress
*after exercising, wash up and avoid tight fiting clothes
*pay attention to your diet

Hope this helps and that things turn out great!

Thanks.
