Acne

Excommunicado
Have you ever had acne? How did you deal with it? Do you still have it?

I noticed a new spot on my forehead this morning and it reminded me of the acne I once had. In my teenage years, I had really bad acne, but I didn’t really care or try to get rid of it, and after my teenage years it just went away by itself. I think trying to fight off acne is pointless. Does treatment really work for acne? Too many teenagers try to do this but I don’t see the point.
 
Oh I had such a problem with acne during high school, severe issue. I had to drink strong medications after school (after finishing high school) to get rid of it and my skin got clear but there was some kind of scars. Now I have beard so nobody knows I have any scars on my face. It's not like so big scar to be noticed on the first sight, but you can see it when you sit with me. Anyway, that's resolved in a way. I had no self-confidance in school because of it and girls didn't show any interest in me :D
 
I used to have acne on my forehead because I have oily skin and also I used to put a lot of oil in my hair. I stopped putting oil in my hair as my hair is naturally oily; Also, I started using tea tree-based facewashes. I've been washing my face twice a day - once before going to bed, and once after waking up in the morning. This really helped me get rid of acne for good.
 
Yes, I've had acne before but it was never bad.
It would clear up within a few days. I don't get acne much anymore.
I was told that the kind of water which you're making use of to bath is part of the cause for having acne. I watched a lady on TikTok last week where she was saying the same thing. If the water you're making use of to bath is hard water or it's treated with some chemicals to make it clean, it's going to cause acne.
 
I did struggle with acne during my teenage years and into my early 20s. It was frustrating and affected my self-confidence at times. I tried various over-the-counter treatments, but found the most success with a prescription topical cream from my dermatologist. Maintaining a consistent skincare routine and avoiding irritants also helped. Nowadays, my skin is much clearer, though I still get the occasional breakout.
