:eek2: I have REALLY REALLY TERRIBLE bacne and I've only had it for a little over a year. Before that I never had more than a couple of bumps every now and then on my back. I've tried and/or am trying all kinds of things like Clean and Clear blackhead scrubs, Neutrogena body scrub, spot treatments, etc. and nothing is really working. A few bumps will disappear after like a week or something, but the majority of them still remain. Does anyone know what might work to get rid of ALL the acne on my back??? Has anyone else had this problem and gotten rid of it? Prom is April 29th and my dress is practically backless, so I'd like to have it gone by then....

what the hell is bacne

"Back- acne."

Go to your doctor and ask for a body wash with either salicylic acid or benozyl peroxide in it. Should be gone in about a month.

I don't have a dermatologist and I don't even think our insurance covers any of it, and that beside the point, I don't have a month and I'm stuck with OTC stuff anyway....

i hate that i have that too.
and its mostly blackheads. :mad:
well my mom bought me this spray from avon and it works a lil'. :cutie: :pink:

um my sis has dat prob. n she uses witch hazel...it comes in a bottle like rubbing alcohol...she said it works pretty good

where can you buy witch hazel???

You can go to your chemist and ask for something along the lines of Hibi-Scrub it works good. Ask your doctor what could help or you pharmasist.

gross. my sister had that. she had to get special creame stuff. still isnt gone all the way.

Usually if you just talk to your regular doctor, he can prescribe you something that will be covered by your insurance, unless it's really bad or has unusual circumstances. I also recommend showering before you go to bed, using antibacterial soap or body wash, and exfoliating with something like apricot scrub 2 or 3 times a week.

ew..

but hmm , maybe google some homemade medicines??

i remember i used to have 'em on my lower back when i was rly little n my mom heated some plants n shit and it was hot as fuck but hey , i have a perfectly clean skin now :- )
