I have had ance on my back (or "bacne") for almost 10 years now and I am sick of it! I have never really tried anything to get rid of it because I used to be overweight and never took my shirt off anyway. But now that I'm in shape, it would be nice to feel comfortable taking my shirt off and getting a tan or something :cool:
Does anyone know of any good products for bacne?
 
Wash your whole body with Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash, concentrating on the areas with pimples. Wait a minute or so before rinsing to get rid of all the oil, and to let the medicine sink in and do its work.
Exfoliate by using an abrasive sponge (Buf-Puf is one brand name) or a loofa (plastic pouf "washcloth" that looks like a white mesh ball). Don't scrub too hard, or you'll increase irritation.
Moisturize with an oil-free, medicated lotion, such as Clean & Clear Dual Action Moisturizer.
Spot treat with acne medication cream. Since you are already using salicylic acid to wash and moisturize, use a different medicine for spot treatment, such as 2.5% benzoyl peroxide. Do not use a 5% or 10% benzoyl peroxide, because this will increase irritation without increasing the rate at which the pimples diminish. (If you're sensitive to benzoyl peroxide, sulfur may work.)
