Avatar m tn Hello, You can use any benzoyk perocide soaps available in the market, common ones being Jan marini benzoyl peroxide or Topic benzoyl peroxide soap. Other treatment options include topical and oral antibiotics, topical retinoids, hormonal therapy, dermabrasion , phototherapy and laser resurfacing. Normally a combination of treatments is followed and if nothing proves effective then dermabrasion and laser therapy are useful. You can discuss these treatment options with your dermatologist.

Mild papulo-pustular (inflammatory) acne: benzoyl peroxide or topical retinoids, topical antibiotics (such as erythromycin). Moderate inflammatory acne: benzoyl peroxide or topical retinoids combined with oral antibiotics (tetracyclines). Isotretinoin is an option.
Avatar m tn Hello, For premature acne, if the acne is protected from the sunlight and sometimes an antioxidant treatment if applied in the initial stage to cure the lesions of acne then it can be cured at the beginning. Then medical treatment is the same as adult acne i.e initially benzoyl peroxide and topical antibiotics are used. But they are to be used under medical supervision and not one one’s own.

281603 tn?1229311681 i use Mk timewise also :) ............ i've used it for a long time but twice during pregnancies i wasn't able to use it... but last pregnancy and this time its been fine! but i also use the acne treatment gel which has 5% bezoyl peroxide in it and someone said that you shouldn't use anything with that in it. i was just wondering if that was true.
Avatar n tn Pat it dry and do not rub it. Avoid picking or pressing the acne. You can also use Benzoyl peroxide 5% lotion or gel once at bedtime. An amount of lotion the size of a pea should be enough to cover most of your face. If your skin becomes red or peels, you are using too much of the medicine or applying it too often. Back and shoulder acne are quite difficult to treat compared to acne on other parts of the body.
Avatar f tn Hey, I wouldn't describe them as scars. I don't know how to describe them. It's most likely when I had acne on my back I tend to scratch them and it left black little circles/marks. I went to a dermatologist and he prescribed this cleanser he invented called Berry MD skincare with Benzoyl Peroxide 10%. I've been using it for a year now and it doesn't work. I don't have much acne on my back; just a little hear and there.
Avatar n tn Widely available OTC bactericidal products containing benzoyl peroxide may be used in mild to moderate acne. The gel or cream containing benzoyl peroxide is rubbed, twice daily, into the pores over the affected region. Bar soaps or washes may also be used and vary from 2 to 10% in strength. Externally applied antibioticsare erythromycin, clindamycin, Stievamycin, or tetracycline .
Avatar f tn Anyone having issues with acne during pregnancy? I already had acne but now it has tripled. I get pimples out of no where. I ready benzoyl peroxide isn't good to use but that's what I'm using. What products are ladies using?
Avatar n tn Using a mild shampoo and conditioner can help. Experts also recommend the use of showering frequently with benzoyl peroxide cleanser and shampoo and applying a benzoyl peroxide gel afterwards to the affected area. It is important to keep the area clean and dry as much as possible. Tee Tree Oil is one natural product that has been effective to prevent infection and future breakouts.

The gel or cream containing benzoyl peroxide is rubbed, twice daily, into the pores over the affected region. Oral antibiotics used to treat acne include erythromycin or one of the tetracycline antibiotics, but this is required only in severe cases. Apart from this ,keep skin clean. apply non-oil based moisturizers to prevent dryness of skin and avoid stress. ref:http://en.wikipedia.
Avatar m tn s opinion on the effectiveness of Accutane on smaller acne heads. My acne is on my face, neck, back, and chest. There are not very many big acne heads (I have benzoyl peroxide5%, Differin 3%, and Minocyclin 100 mg twice a day). These medications play a big part in my not having many big zits. Anyways, I have lots of little acne heads all over. How effective is Accutane at getting rid of these heads and keeping them off? (from your experience or from official sources) Thanks!

Avatar n tn Face wash with .5% salicylic acid and another facewash with 3.5% benzoyl peroxide. I MAKE SURE to take really good care of my skin but it dosent seem to work. Also i have a prescription face medication cream called BenzaClin which is 1% clindamycin and 5% Benzoyl peroxide. Also, i am away at college far from my house so could it be my face isnt use to the water here? Im not sure what else it could be. Does anyone have any ideas of what i can do to help???
Avatar m tn Six and a half weeks ago, I bought Clinique's three step acne treatment system to eliminate a recurring whitehead problem on my face. The first product was a salicylic acid foam cleanser, the second was a salicylic toner, and the third was a benzoyl peroxide lotion. (I have used salicylic acid before, so I don't think that was the cause of the reaction.) After two days of use, my skin was extremely dry and my eyes were swollen.
Avatar n tn I also have oxy cream whaich is 10% benzoyl peroxide. any suggestions as to how I can clear up this problem for goos. on the touch they feel small but they are visible. This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/243116'>Lip Bumps</a>.
