hey does anyone have any ideas on how to reduce my acne. my face and chest is clear but my shoulders and back look like the rocky mountains. i cant even workout in a tank top ist so bad. i heard the tanning bed works pretty good. also i have some accutaine on hand but after reading the side effects for that, im having second thoughts. any ideas would help. thanks
can't work out in a tank top because of acne? come on bro.....sport that shit
But really, I have acne on my face , back , shoulders too. Tanning, taking alot of showers throughout the day will help. Would like to know what else would help.
accututain is good but keep it until last option.tanning does work quite well and also try showering more often and u can also use dawn washing up liquid that helps but go easy as it can dry the skin up also dabing the effective areas with something like pure teatree oil is good.
yea but its not like its little pimples that shit looks like boulders.lol
are they squezable spots or smal like lumps under ur skin
oh no these you cant squeeze. there too far under the skin. there just big ass red lumps. all over my back and shoulders
BEACOUSE IF THEY WERE "squezable" I WOULD POP THEM WITH MY TEETH!!
Just Kidding, What Cycle Are You On???
HAHAHA, Dude, THATS F*CKIN NASTY!!!! LMAO!!!! that got me to laugh!!!:lol:Quote:

I know what you mean bout the bumps. for me....i would poke some with a needle, then dab then with rubbing alcohol. I also use Benzol peroxide cream (aka clearisol) THAT SH*T WORKS WONDERS!!!:7up:
they might be small cysts my mate had them and they left him with quite a few scars so by the info u just give me i would start the accutain if there really making u self paranoid and u not being able 2 take ur top off or anti-biotics could help but some people on hear have said that they mess with ur course .i have no oppinion on this as im not a doctor im a pimp
also have a look on the main forum and go 2 the AR spa its 4 people 2 discuse there acne problems and tanning and lots ov other things happy reading mate lol
I Heard One Breaks Out On Pct More Than Cycle? True??
i got absolutely terrible acne on my arms, shoulders and back on my last cycle and these wernt just pimples they were big red marks deep under the skin like sopmeone else said earlier. a few months later it was still as bad, even though i showered 2 or 3 times a day! anyway, i was geting desperate and gonna ask to be prescribed accutane, but i tried a moisturiser with vitamin e in it on the affected areas of my arms and shoulders (i was originally using it for stretch marks), and after about 2 weeks there was a massive difference. the spots on my arms and shoulders are practically gone, whereas my back (because i didnt rub that area) is still very bad. so give that try if you arnt already
i think it could be true also as ur body has been used 2 steady timed injections so ur blood levels are good but wen u come of ur bodt thrives 4 more and ur blood levels go 2 fvck plus ur natural hormones are involved and are trying 2 stabelise wen ur doing a pct

but i had this acne before i even started my cycle. it was from my first one. and i started my second cycle within 4 months after the first. i know it was stupid but fuc it im trying to get swoll. lol
There was an old discussion on this board about how sprayin deodrant on affected areas hepled clear it. Worked for some people. But there were those who said it didn't do squat. Try and do a search on "deodrant" and see if anything pops up.
Dish soap. Leave it on your skin for a while. Wash it off later. It gets even the deep cystic acne under the skin. I wouldn't use the accutane yet.
Tanning + Dish soap really worked for me
you say your face is clear.. have you tried using whatever you use to clean your face on you shoulders.. facial cleaners work the same all over the body.
thats the funny thing, i dont really use anything for my face. i wash my whole body and face with irish spring bar soap. then i go over my face with stridex cleansing pads. but thats it............any ways thank to everyone for your ideas ill try some of them out and see how it goes.Quote:

Asia Pac J Clin Nutr. 2005;14 Suppl:S43.
The effect of a low glycemic load, high protein diet on hormonal markers of acne.
Smith R, Mann N, Braue A, Varigos G.
School of Applied Sciences, RMIT University, Melbourne, VIC.
Background - Acne vulgaris is a common endocrine condition affecting adolescents in Western civilizations. Acne typically manifests during puberty when there is a transient decrease in insulin sensitivity. It has been suggested that high glycemic nutrition during puberty induces hyperinsulinemia which increases the bioavailability of androgens and certain growth factors. These changes may induce follicular epithelial growth and increased sebum production - two factors responsible for acne proliferation. Objective - To determine the effect of a low glycemic load diet, comprised of high levels of protein and low glycemic index (GI) foods, on hormonal makers of acne vulgaris. Design - Male acne sufferers [n=43, age=18.3+/-0.4 (mean +/- SEM)] were randomly assigned to either the dietary intervention (n=23) or control groups (n=20). The intervention diet consisted of 25% energy from protein and 45% energy from low glycemic index carbohydrates. The control group received no information about diet nor were they given dietary instruction. Venous blood was collected at baseline and 12-weeks for an assessment of testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), free androgen index (FAI), dehydroepiandrosterone - sulfate (DHEA-S), insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and IGF-binding proteins -I and -3. Outcomes - Dietary intervention resulted in a significant reduction in FAI (-9.1 +/- 4.5, P<0.05) and DHEA-S (-0.72 +/- 0.33 umol/L, P<0.05) and an increase in IGFBP-1 (5.3 +/- 1.6 ng/mL, P<0.01). No significant changes were observed in levels of IGF-I, IGFBP-3, testosterone or SHBG following dietary intervention. The control group showed no change in any of the blood parameters measured. Conclusion - These data suggest that a low glycemic load diet may reduce androgenic activity (as indicated by a reduction in FAI and DHEA-S) and may oppose the growth promoting effects of IGF-I by increasing levels of its binding protein, IGFBP-I. This implies that a low glycemic load diet may reduce hormonal influences involved in acne pathogenesis.
All preventive ways above a great, but when you get a big zit on you. Pop it, and put some neosorporin and a bandaide over it. It's a open sore. This heals it up in days instead of a week or two. BTW, the welts are not fun. I use a needle too to get the juice out. The pain is ridiculous.
hahaha thats so funny my girl is the same way. The best topical is Pan Oxl 10% benz peroxide aqueus gel, you see results over night, literallyQuote:

Sometimes, there is so much inside, that part of the needle fills up with puss. This is so nasty i know, but i would not have admitted to it untill someone else did!
