Question 1

what can i do to treat pimples using a homemade remedy?

Accepted Answer

Get a real Rx: Forgive my frankness. Acne is a serious, chronic disease that can devastate a young person physically and emotionally. It can be managed easily by a physician. If topical benzoyl peroxide has failed, get junior to a physician. If he ends up scarred because you insisted on a "home remedy", he will resent you for the rest of his life -- and he'll be right to feel this way.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

Washes and creams: Benzyl peroxide and epiduo.

Question 3

microdermabrasion for pimples. is this the best treatment?

Accepted Answer

Acne scars: One important factor is prevent new scars-get your acne under control. Find a dermatologist to tackle that with you. Most treatment to improve the appearance of acne scars use special technology to remodel the skin. The device I use to treat acne scars is called ematrix--see for info: http://www.Smacboca.Com/e-matrix-sublative-rejuvenation.Html
other options are avail including microdermabrasion.

Question 4

what is the best treatment for acne (pimples?

Accepted Answer

Scientific Rx: If topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated hasn't cleared you in two weeks, you're going to need prescription-strength medication from your personal physician.

Question 5

what is the best treatment of pimples?

Accepted Answer

Several good options: For treatment of acne, over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide gel/cream is quite helpful. If desired, a doctor can add an antibiotic gel/cream such as Cleocin (clindamycin phosphate) gel. If more help is needed, prescription retinoids such as Retin-A or differin gel can be used instead of benzoyl peroxide. Oral antibiotics such as tetracycline can be used also. If acne is quite severe, a dermatologist might use oral accutane.

Question 6

what is the best treatment to eliminate blind pimples?

Accepted Answer

Injection by derm: "blind pimples" are deep acne lesions that usually do not reach the skin surface. They can't be "popped", so don't try, you'll only make them worse. The best treatment is injection of an anti-inflammatory medication with a very tiny needle. A dermatologist can do that for you. You'll probably also need an antibiotic to prevent formation of further lesions, but the dermatologist will decide that.

Question 7

what is the best medicine or treatment for acne or pimples?

Accepted Answer

Rx: Benzoyl peroxide over the counter is cheap and works pretty well; i add topical clindmycin next because it's cheap and usually works great. If there's a lot of blackheads, the more pricey retinoic acid derivatives can come 3rd; failing this, a systemic antibiotic or even a dermatologist's big guns. The oral contraceptive pill can end acne in a woman who can and wants to take it.

Question 8

what is the best treatment for scar of the pimples on the face?

Accepted Answer

Difficult: resurfacing fractional lasers help reduce the scars but a great result is only 50% improvement, deep chemical peels by a trained MD help as well. Dermadbrasion and possibly the dermapen can reduce the scars to a lesser degree

Question 9

Exposed or Proactiv: Try nonprescription items such as "exposed" or "proactiv." if these do not work , see a dermatologist.

Question 10

Depends: It depends of what type of pimples they are having. If you refer to rosacea, then you may use oral antibiotics such as doxycycline. Topical preps such as Metronidazole lotion or finacea may be tried as well.
