Most guys have acne because of testosterone. So that acne means you are a true man :-) If they bother you, go to a dermatologist. Lots of medication available.

It's tougher for guys because women can wear makeup to cover the scars. Ask your doc for a prescription for Retin-A (generic = tretinoin). Your insurance company might first refuse to cover it but if your doc is willing to sign off that it's for acne prevention rather than wrinkle removal, they'll likely cover it. It will make your skin red and flaky for a few weeks, but then you'll slowly start seeing old skin slough off and new skin pushing through, it's great. A chemical peel might also help.

I am proof that Proactiv works. I have used it for 8 years with awesome results. At age 50 I started getting horrible acne. A Dermatologist was costing a lot of money and the pills, creams and ointments did not work that well. My son was using Proactiv and I gave it a try. My skin cleared in 3 weeks. I use it faithfully once a day now and get compliments on my complexion. Try it, if it doesn't work for you there is a money back guarantee.

My friend is an estitician and works at a dermatologists office and there are so many treatments avail these days. Chemical peels work really well. They fry those suckers off. I'm not a big fan of Retin-A, it made me feel sick and is really really strong. I wouldn't take pills, there are a lot of treatments... lazers, peels, etc that work well and don't trash your body.

Right lets get one thing straight, at this moment in time there is NO cure for acne. Only medicines from a Doctor, facial & body products help to prevent it. You will grow out of it eventually. Not all products work, some work for a week or so then acne gets use to it and comes back. This is what I have been doing for 6 months now, it has really worked! Its the best way to get rid of acne, pimples, blackheads, scarring, red marks, blemishes etc. Also its very affordable. All you need is: SIMPLE SOAP: Use this on your face. This soap has NO colour, perfume or animal fats. Use this twice a day on your face. Morning and Evening. Dermatologists recommend this soap. Pat face dry with a clean towel after. 101e ACNE GETAWAY: Use this on your face after "Simple Soap " both in the mornings and evenings. Also apply "101e Acne Getaway " again before bed on the acne areas. This is the stuff that works miracles. Its a Chinese herbal remedy and can be used for the face and body. Give it at least 2-3 weeks for the results, but trust me its worth the wait! Apply this to your face with cotton pads over the acne areas. It has a funny smell at first, but get use to it! Within 1 hour you will notice redness has calmed down, your skin feels toned and clean. There is no need for moisturizer, as "101e Acne Getaway " acts as one. It may take a few days for your skin to get use to this, don't worry, just work through it, get on with life. TOP TIP: Don't look in the mirror. Only look in the mirror for cleaning in the mornings and evenings. Try this, go for one full day without looking in a mirror. Your notice by the end of the day that for some reason your acne hasn't come up as much. This is due to you not worrying about your acne and stress levels not being so high. GREASY SKIN: If your skin gets greasy (normally the forehead, nose, chin, cheeks) during the day at work. Go to the toilet and wipe it lightly with some tissue paper or if you really are prepared wipe it with "Simple Oil Balancing Cleansing Wipes ". These wipes have NO colour, perfume or animal fats. SHOWER & BATH TIME: "Simple Soothe Shower Cream ". This shower/ bath cream has NO colour, perfume or animal fats. This is great for chest & back acne. Also some shampoos & conditioners contain chemicals or ingredients that can aggravate acne. Best to use "Simple Gentle Care Shampoo " & "Simple Gentle Care Conditioner " which once again has NO colour, perfume or animal fats. ERYTHROMYCIN TABLETS: These can only be prescribed by a Doctor, it is an antibiotic tablet. To be taken twice a day, mornings after breakfast and evenings after dinner. These basically kill off the bad bacteria in your gut which can cause acne. This also kills off the good bacteria, but as long as you eat "Probiotic Yogurt " the good bacteria will be replaced and do your skin a world of good! FOODS: They say there is NO link between acne and diet. But I personally think it helps to eat the right things, its probably a mental thing. But when i eat the right foods, fruit, seeds, fish etc, I feel my skin is getting better. If I eat a McDonald's, all day breakfasts, crisps etc, I feel my skin is getting greasy etc and I'll wake up in the morning with more acne. SHAVING: If you get shaving rash or even more acne the morning after shaving. Then stop! Ditch the wet shave and the electric shaver. Buy a beard trimmer. I use "Babyliss For Men I-Trim Stubble - 7850U Beard Trimmer ". It really helps keep acne and shaving rash away. The shaving levels go from 0.5mm - 15mm. Its worth it. If you choose to use this method to get rid of your acne. Give it 6 months. But every week, you should notice a difference in your skin. Good luck.

I have tried a lot of things in the past for acne and oily skin and nothing worked as well as Proactiv or similar 3 part remedies. This is my experience and I would recommend it to anyone but it may not work for everyone. We all have different makeups but why not give it a go. Good luck.
