How does the sulfur in some acne products actually help clear acne?

acne
Princess Leia asked:


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!

susan15022001 asked:


I am asking because at a recent trip to the drugstore, I noticed that the men’s skin care lines are cheaper than the women’s, and yet the ingredient lists read about the same. Can you recommend any products?

i3Killua asked:


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.

How does oral medication for acne know how to clear up the area?

acne
Kellie asked:


I have a minor acne problem on my chin and the corner of mouth. I recently went to the dermatologist to find out how to get rid of it. She prescribed oral medication that treats acne. My question is how does the oral medicine know where the acne is and how does it clear it up? I guess I’m just really skeptical about this whole thing. Thanks!

Mike W. asked:


My girlfriend has sensitive skin that tends to dry out very quickly when using harsh products, however she has some moderate acne on her face which can be painful at times. She’s looking for a kit to get rid of this, but cannot decide on one. What have you guys used that has helped you?
My girlfriend isn’t a pig, and junk food and soda does not cause acne. ;o

How can i get rid of acne, without drying out my skin?

acne
mmgirl_11 asked:


I am a twelve year old girl. I get acne mostly on my forehead (mainly between my eyebrows), near my nose and on my chin. My nose is really oily too, i dont know why! I have used nutregena oil-free acne wash, nutregena rapid clear, and clearasil daily face wash, but all of them either did nothing, or made my acne worse, or dried out my skin! Right now all i am doing is washing my face with plain soap daily. It helps somewhat. My mom wotn let me use any zit cream or anything, only face washes, because she says the other stuff will dry out my skin. What is some things i can do to get rid of my oily skin and acne without drying out my skin?. Nothign too expensive, i cant afford proactive or any of that stuff. preferably natural.

Michael&Cassandra asked:


I’m a teen and I’ve heard that an unhealthy diet is a cause of acne. But I have noticed alot of people in school who eat junk food everyday and they never get any acne. I try to eat very healthy and I drink alot of water but I still always get really bad acne.

I had acne all my life, it is mostly under contol now, with the occasional pimple. I’m now left with scarring, its not terrible, but it is noticable as well as large pores. I want to know the best way of getting rid of them completely. I’ve tried IPL which helped but didnt completely remove the scars. Please can someone help- my sanity depends on you! Thank you!
P.s I dont need to know how to treat the acne- i’ve done this! Just need to know about getting rid of the scars!
