Question Posted Saturday September 17 2005, 8:47 am
I usually get acne around my t zones a lot. I get it in between my eyebrows, all over my nose, lips, and chin. I have clearasil cleansing pads and I use them every night. I also use Neutrogena deep clean and I use oxy when it gets bad. There is never a time when I don't have pimples!! I always feel discusting in some way although a take good care of my skin. How can I solve this? Would a dermetologist prescribe pills for someone who doesn't have MAJOR acne probs like me?? I don't get it really bad, just it looks gross! Also, what products could help me out with this?

But I used to be the same way and my regular doctor (not a dermetologist) gave me a prescribtion for BenzaChin. It works great. I also use pHisoderm self heating daily scrub. Using both of those I'm pretty much acne free (except around my period). So even if you can't get benzachin I would really go out and buy phisoderm.

Also the foods you eat can effect the way you skin, hair, n nails look. Eat lots of fruits and veggies try to limit the chips, sodas, candies, and cake. Seeing a dermatalogist could help you see what's really going on and yes there are pills for acne but is perscribed because different problems calls for different medications. Just wash you face 2-3 times a day(morning, after pe/lunch, dinner). Don't cover yourself up with concealer so much.Commercial or store bought brands may not always get the job done ask what your doctor reccomends or perscribes.
