It was a joke, you seem super defensive though, got my eyes on you
 
Ghkcu and tretinoin dm for a facial morph if wanted
can i ask why ppl on here go straight to tret? cause if its bacterial all she needs is a month of lymecycline or tetracycline and shes chilling. if not she could probably use adapalene and azelaic acid

i used anua niacinamide serum but it didnt do any major changes

ofc it didnt do anything, skinscare stuff like anua are just marketing diluted shit. the niacinamide % is probably low. it also depends on ur skin type and what kind of acne u have ngl. adapalene and azelaic acid in high % usually are prescribed which is why theyre effective.
 
Don't listen to any of these keep your routine relatively light. Since you have dry skin it's safe to say oil production isn't the cause of your acne but instead bacteria and/or hormones.

Try to cut processed sugar and limit overall carb intake for between 3 to 6months and see how you go along. Go to a dermotogist if you can and see if you can get your hands on a topical anti bacterial gel. For now look into appropriate serums. For the rest of your routine don't wash with anything but water in the morning, and use dry skin appropriate products.

This is all still slop

Diet sodas are highly inflammatory, same with fast digesting carbs like fruit, milk is horrible for acne because it's estrogenic especially soy milk.
 
not pie heads, but white heads yes
You mean PUSTULES or actual whiteheads?

PUSTULES look like this

get a normal/gentle cleanser, maybe even a moisturising one since ur skin is dry

as penalizer said its probably not excess oil production so i wouldnt say u even need niacinamide. probably hormones or bacterial.

try get antibiotics like tetracycline or lymecycline if not then get topical ones.

for scars if u have any get silicon gel.

if u have very active areas of acne get azelaci acid and adapalene creams usually in high %. and sandwich all of this with a hydrating moisturiser

I'd say oral antibiotics are counter productive since they fuck your gut long term.

Like I said it could be a hormone issue so we wouldn't wanna risk further harming them

Well for me topical does the job better since you have all the aid of a healthy gut and hormone support at the same time. You don't have to bother with prebiotic which may have varied succes levels.

If op could pair an antibacterial with tret it'd kill 2 birds with one stone considering the scarring
 
okay thank u, and what for dark spots or the result u popped a pimple which leaves a scar kinda
silicon gel for scarring, its what they use for surgical scars. if its a fresh scar that just scabbed. if its like a hyperpigmentation/dark spot after the scar has healed them azelaic acid helps to peel it off or use retinoids for skin turnover.

i just dont think ppl should jump straight to tret unless they have cystic acne yk? theres always lighter topicals that might help and orals are so much easier
 
Yeah I think I was right seems like it's a bacterial and hormonal issue. Follow my advice and you should be good in a few weeks
wait whats ur advice again? just to be sure
This is all still slop

well what do u suggest? and what was ur advice again. also can u explain this more

I think op could try some serums first  but i had a similair issue of pustules while having eczema and the only think that honestly helped was tret+antibacterial and epiduo but obviously benzoyl peroxide is likely too harsh (as it was for me)

If approached correctly it should work fine.

I'd say you should have a diet focused on limiting inflammation and supporting hormone health. High estrogen foods tend to be worth avoiding, while foods promoting progesterone should be your focus.

In terms of skincare for am just wash your face with water (since you already have dry skin) and apply sunscreen (finding good sunscreen is hard so do your research)

Pm I'd suggest a skin type appropriate cleanser and moisturiser paired with tretinoin thats combined with an antibacterial. If you can't get this online then go to your dermatologist and I suspect they'll prescribe something similar.

Muh diet waaah

just take isotret and eat whatever theory, wasting your time changing diet

son accutane dries out not only your skin but also your soul what are we talking about
More motivation to moisturize

Ah yes op should 100% take accutane when they have already dry skin

None of you know what youre talking about and it makes me cage

At low-dose it shouldn't be too bad, i doubt OP would need to moisturize that often

Anyways the pros out weigh the cons. -Dry skin/lips
unless your liver is damaged that's pretty much it

Accutane results take longer than a good skincare routine paired with diet if you have mild to moderate acne

And over moisturising clogs the fuck out of pores causing more acne. The mechanism of moisturiser and sebum is very different so it's not that simple.

Trial-and-error, money and time, it's not worth it

Are you using vaseline to moisturize? Jus use a light-weight one & don't over-apply, should see how bad dry skin is on LD then try other shit

Not even remotely true. If you do even an hour of research you'll figure out a good routine and what diet is needed. It's also way cheaper than accutane

Like I said moisturiser can not be used as a permanent replacement for sebum at this level, it'll just clog pores. Doesn't matter how light weight it is.
