    Ok great thanks. I only have my girl around when I shower a few times a week when we're together as we live separately, so would a sponge on a stick or loofa work the same so I can so it myself, too? And do you have any acne washes that you'd recommend? In the past with other types of acne I've had a lot of success with 10% Benzyl Peroxide like what's in Proactive, is that what you were thinking or is there something else maybe that I don't know about....?

    This is a great non-comedogenic wash:



    Depending on how you skin reacts you can use the best pre-operative skin sterilizer (chlorhexidine), needs 4% version for best chances against P acnes bacteria:
