Acne prevention

[sheckeyshabazz]

I used to have bad acne as a teenager, now at 26 its just a few pimples every so often. I would assume that i will have a predisposition to acne while on a cycle, so what are some things i can do to prevent it from happening, and if it does happen, treat it? I know accutane is an option but what are some less invasive options? Ive heard some bad stuff about accutane. Any help is greatly appreciated

Dont believe the hype about accutane, it is a miracle drug. If you are pre dispositioned to severe depression or something you might want to be careful, but other than that it is great stuff.

Got done 4 months of it in Feb and have not had a blemish since.

Nothing.nada. Don't even need to look in the mirror for anything these days.

But you have to take it for a while so it shuts your oil glands off.

Just keep the lip balm handy.

ive been on accutane, the sides are way over exagerated (sp) works great! the only side was the red glow u get from sun and the dry lips

Ok, I've never suffered from severe depression or anything like that. Ok sounds like ill have to have that on hand then. Thanks for the advice guys, I appreciate it.

Oh and what's a good face wash that I could use to prevent acne from showing up? Figure ill try that to prevent it and if that doesn't work then move up to the accutane
