I am a 23 year old male. I have had acne since i was about 12. It has come and gone but its never gone for longer then a year. It has never been a problem on my face. It is all over my back and upper arms and chest. I have tried everything. Pills, creams everything. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas. I use the bervoxly creamy wash everynight. I hate putting on creams so if anyone has some suggestions that dont invlove creams i would love it. Thanks

If the acne is bad on your back, no store products will help.
For your body acne.
Get Doxycycline. Get 100 MG and take 1 pill a day.
This is the holy grail for clearing your skin of body acne.
You got to get this prescribed from a Derm.
Its by far the best product i'v used for getting rid of acne on the face and body.
Even if you have no insurance.
Doxycycline costs like 25 dollars at CVS or Walgreens for 30 capsules at 100MG per capsule.
If you have insurance, it will costs like 2 or 3 dollars.

Now, if you have redmarks when the acne goes down.
There's a few things you can do.
For a body wash.
I recommend the Neutrogena Body Clear Body Scrub.
This has 2 percent Salicylic Acid, Green Tea, Aloe, Chamomilla and is very good for getting rid of redmarks.
Its much better then the Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash with Salicylic Acid.
The Neutrogena body wash did nothing for me.

When you get out of the shower.
I would then use Paula's Choice Weightless Body Treatment With 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid.
This is a lotion for acne.
Leave it on your body. Dont wash off.
This is very good product for getting rid of marks on your body when the acne goes down.
It has alot of good incredients.
2% Salicylic Acid, 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid, Green Tea, Flower Extract, Vitamin A, C, E, Grape Seed, Selenium, Willow Herb, Magnesium, Zinc Oxide.
 
Two products I love that could be used on your body:

Dr. D's Tea Tree Soap

and

Grandpa D's Sulfur Soap, they worked wonders for me.


I don't like taking antibiotics. You may want to try to drink tea which is good for your body, take a vitamin, and eat a balanced diet. Have a nice day.
 
Try showering twice a day. I sweat more on my back than anywhere else, and since I started showering twice a day I've noticed I don't break out as much.
 
use tea tree oil soap you can get it at the body shop. then get the tea tree oil for spot treatment, benzyl peroxide 10% and AHA 10% lotion. it works.
 
I agree with the first replier, doxycycline is the BEST for clearing the skin on the body. As far as the face goes I find that 3 things are very important, wash your fash with a nice facewash, put on no more than 2.5 % benzoyl peroxide and finally use a REALLY good lotion. I use oil of olay 7X's anti aging, because it has so many vitamins in it that heal all the old problems, and is by far the best thing EVER created!
