Question by Anonymous.: How can I get rid of Acne scars on my face and back?… What products REALLY work?
It’s really disgusting to have acne, and even worse to have the scars. I absolutely HATE the acne scars on my back, and also on my face. They make me feel so ugly. Please, if you have had this in the past, you would understand. I can’t even wear some cute shirts because of my back. Do you think the new clean and clear acne and scar remover can help? Any suggestions?
And how much would laser treatment cost?

Question by bettennis2: How long does acne last without using medicine?
I’ve always wondered what happens if when you get acne you didn’t use any special medicine and just kept washing your face only 1-2 times a day. Would the acne eventually go away or would it just sit there forever?

Answer by Andrew G
During puberty the skin matures, our hormones change, and the gland responsible for producing oil around our hair and pours goes into overdrive. The excess oil gets trapped and becomes infected leading to a pimple.

Acne usually subsides when you enter your twenties.

Everyone is different. For you washing your face more frequently may be enough to stop acne.

If washing your face more frequently does not solve your problem, see a dermatologist.

Question by Princess Leia: How does the sulfur in some acne products actually help clear acne?
I have 2 acne treatments (Proactiv Refining Mask & another drying gel) that have sulfur as the main ingredient. They smell horrible, but they really work well! I was wondering what it actually does? Does it clear the pores or does it kill the acne bacteria? No big emergency, just wondering! Thanks!

Question by Ruka: How do I get rid of acne and acne scars?
What brand should I use that isn’t too expensive but still works? I’ve tried Acne Free, Clearasil, and Neutrogena. What should I do about acne scars and blemishes? Homemade remedies are also fine.
