HELP!!!! Comedonal acne...flesh colored skin bumps

[DaughterOfZion1]

Hey Ladies,

I have TONS of comedonal acne...its all these little bumps that are either flesh colored or whiteish in color because they are filled with oil (SORRY TMI).

I wanted to know if anyone had success with removing them?

Anyone actually deal with it and see results from a product/procedure?

I dont really deal with acne anymore thank GOD!!! lol but these little bumps are keeping me from pretty skin...

HELP PLEASE!!!!

TIA

Retin-a and an anti-bacterial.

I would say to try a Clarisonic Skin Brush or a cheaper alternative would be retinol. I like Murad Acne Exfoliating Gel.

You could try cutting out flour and sugar for a few days.

I have a clarisonic but that is not solving the issue.

Sunshinelady,
have you tried retin-a for it and had success? i have done research and seen that retin-a helps but I have dont have insurance.

I've got this too. I made a paste of amla powder and applied it as a mask and I left it on until it dried. It's gone down quite a lot. Maybe 1 or 2 more times will rid it completely.

WOW....so amla powder did it for you?

Thats great...ive got to try this.
Its supposed to be the hardest type of acne to get rid of.

Do they fluctuate at all or you have the same level all the time? When I get those it is from something I'm allergic to, I take some benadryl/claritin (which decreases them overnight) and avoid that food, then I'm fine. It's definitely worth investigating your diet. I find egg white masks to be useful as well (just wisk up egg white with a little water, put it on your face and let it dry)

The clean and clear line has a lot of salicylic acid, which also helps. Failing that, retin-A would be ideal. Maybe you could find a free clinic in your area that would prescribe you some? It's $80 a tube, though

Good luck

If you can afford a doc visit, they have a generic version of retin-a. For the type of acne you describe, I think that is what you would get.

But, you really need to go to a doc because what you described might not be acne. It could be allergies and a bunch of other things.
