I used to have bad acne in high school, and I tried Proactiv, which did nothing. Drink lots of water, and I use this liquid soap called Cetaphil which helps keep my face non-oily but also keeps it moisturized. Don't get zits anymore now...

 

ZITS ARE FUN TO POP! God, I love popping zits, but too bad I don't have any, anymore. I'm mid 20's. I never had many zits when younger.

 

...acutane cause serious side and after effects even though it does work wonders...just try to sleep early and clean your face with some daily face wash

 

Alrighty how bout Masturbation/Sex?? Does this increase any testosterone or hormone levels possibly affecting acne? Or is this just a myth?

 

One can't really prevent acne, it's a natural process. However, one can lessen and keep it under control through many processes. There is no cure for acne yet. Basically, it's just oil and dirt trapped in the pores underneath the epidermis causing those zits, which are hella fun to pop.

 

That pill is Accutane. For some it works and stops acne for the rest of their lives and for some it stops it for years. That pill really does do wonders. For some of you with oily foreheads in the morning or afternoon.. After I took it I stopped having those and haven't had any since. You're only on it for 4-6 months at a time.

However it has extreme side effects. Mine were considered minor and even with that, they were cumbersome. Imagine having chapped lips all the time, everyday. I never used Chap Stick before because my lips never really dried out unless I went snowboarding or something. After getting on Accutane I had Chap Stick everywhere. Car, dresser, backpack, etc.. Moisturizing eye drops too. It really would be the wonder cure if it didn't have those side effects.

I've noticed a trend recently with Accutane being prescribed for moderate acne. Sometimes I don't think I should've taken it because of all it's side effects. What other medication requires monthly blood tests? For females, a pregnancy test is required as well because of the birth defects caused by Accutane. The side effects go away after you get off of it but it makes me wonder what type of long term damage has been done.
