i have really sensative skin and it's over-populated by acne! ah it makes me feel so ugly and people make fun of me because i have pimples all over my face. what can i do? i go to a hygenist (forgot what you call them) every 6 months and but whatever i try it's just too strong and makes my face really hurt. i've tried brand products like proavtice, clean and clearl, but nothing seems to work. i use them for at least 6 weeks, but my face just gets redder and redder. what could work? doxycycline? i've herd of that, but is it really good?
i have been to a skin doctor and he says that it's just mild acne. i also don't eat fatty foods, i eat on a healthy diet...but thanks anyways i'll keep it in mind!
Answers:
1Absolutely! In fact, I was going to recommend that you go to your doctor and ask him to put you on Tetracycline (also known as Doxycycline or Sumycin) My brother had terrible acne and nothing worked for him until he took the antiobiotic. The only real side effect I noted him having with the TCN treatment was that it causes one to readily sunburn when outdoors. Many products on the market can actually make it worse, such as that Benzoid Peroxide (or something like that.) If you use such a thing, don't use anything higher than the 5% strength - the 10% doesn't do any more and irritates the skin. Many products also work the same way, but companies want you to think that if a little may help, why not spend more money and get something stronger which doesn't really do anyhting but empty your wallet.
