Acne Treatments

serendipity1187 asked:


Adoxa (pill)
Tazorac (cream)
Duac (gel)
Benziq (face wash)

What are your experiences with them and do they work? My dermatologist has put me on all 4 of these. I take the Adoxa once a day at dinner, I use the Tazorac at night, I use the Duac in the morning, and I use the Benziq both in the morning and night.

Thanks!!!

I’ve been battling with acne a long time and have tried many acne medications and still am not where I want to be. I see others who have had bad acne and within weeks, have very nice skin. I don’t want to ask them what they used, but are there medications out there that give results within days or weeks?

i’ll admit, i have a huge acne problem
i use neutrogena oil free acne wash
and also the neutrogena moisturizer thing
when i look in the mirror in the morning, i look DISGUSTING
so i wash my face and then i put make up on
i use both foundation and cover up
but still you can see the acne
i’ve been doing everything i’m supposed to do to make acne stop, but nothing’s working for me
my mom refuses to buy products that reduces acne!
can anyone give me good advice of what i should do to make this go away? thank you

LIke Oxy, Clerasil, Murad, AcneFree? They all seem to have the same active ingrediant…….either benzoyl peroxide or saylic acid. Even the supposedly stronger versions just seem to be more expensive? What do you think. If you are a skin specialist or just want to leave your opinion I’d appreciate the feed back.

Maybe it’s my imagination, but it seems like after 2-3 weeks of using any acne medication, it suddenly stops working for me.
This happens with every acne medicine I have tried, including Proactive. Is it possible for my skin to develop an immunity to the acne medicine? What should I do?

I wanted to try bio oil to get rid of some acne scars on my face and back. I am currently using Benza-clin Gel to treat my acne. I am afraid the Bio Oil could clog my pores or prevent the Benza-Clin from working. Is it ok to use Bio Oil and acne meds at the same time? If yes, any tips on how to include it in my regime? I am currently just washing up in the morning with a gentle clenser (Neutrogena) and applying Benza-Clin after, using a lotion with sun protection when needed (rare). Nothing in the evenings. Thank you so much for any advice.
