Re: Best facial for helping acne?? Please help!
i would call up the spaand tell them what kind of skin you have and see what they suggest.
also i would go to a dermatologist asap!
i just saw mine yesterday and she put me on perscription oral acne medication so my skin will be pimple-free for september!

I have the same problem lately- I have a facial on Sunday, I will let you know what they tell me- I have been using a warming cleanser from Biore for black heads though & thats helped alot.

Use toner every night after you wash your face - it helps with the blackhead problem. I use Vivant Mandelic Acid Toner.
I also exfoliate using a vitamin C exfoliant every day (I used to have bumps all over my forehead). You shouldn't do it everyday though - more like twice a week...

find a spa that has BIOELEMENTS they have an acne facial that every product is just for that formuation of facial..they also do this thing called finding out your BIOTYPE whicis what kind of skin you have to get the products that you need
you sometimes may think you have one skin type but really have another
i always thought i had oily skin anbought products for that
after cosmo school i leard that i really have combonation dry skin and i was drying my skin out by using the wrong products..now i have the best skn ever that i u se the right stuff

Seriously, try proactive. Not to sound like an infomercial, but it actually does work. My forehead tends to break out and w/in a month it totally cleared up (wow, I really do sound like an infomercial!)

I just went for a microderm abrasion treatment yesterday with the esthitician at my dermatologist's office. It wasn't the most pleasant procedure, but I have to say that my face is so smooth today and she extracted all the black heads.
FM me if you want more info.

I am an esthetician..i recommend u getting a glycolic peel... It is a aggressive treatment but the results are great...This helps slouth off multiple layers of skin which helps bacteria die and makes the pores open so your skin can be extracted easily...any questions u can fm me....
