Question 1

how to get rid of pimples ?

Accepted Answer

Hygiene: Good hygiene and over the counter cleaning agents. Severe cases can be addressed with medications, but average outbreaks can be dealt with at home with hygiene and cleansing products.

Question 2

how to get rid of pimples fast ?

Accepted Answer

No quick fix: I'm going to assume this is common acne. If topical benzoyl peroxide has not cleared you in two weeks, get with your personal physician who can add prescription-strength Rx. You need to manage the illness until it self-cures. No lifestyle, diet or hygiene measures will do much. I know you're tough and can carry on with this.

Question 3

Question 4

how to get rid of pimples marks..?

Accepted Answer

Topical creams: If you are referring to pimples you may try over the counter acne treatments such as face wash for acne, topical acne treatments such as Benzoyl peroxide cream. You may also consult with a dermatologist for more effective treatment. Finally, some patients require oral medications. You may try Mederma, a scar cream which doesn't help everyone, otherwise scars become less visible over time.

Question 5

how to get rid of pimples at home?

Accepted Answer

Scientific Rx: Ignore all the pop advice (diet, sexual abstinence, hygiene, not touching your face) and the home remedies (honey, lemon, and pepper are all cruel hoaxes). If topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated (try up to 10% 2x/day) hasn't cleared you in two weeks, get with your personal physician. Best wishes.

Question 6

what to try to get rid of pimples?

Accepted Answer

Scientific Rx: If two weeks on over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide doesn't clear you, get with your physician. You may be a rx for a topical retinoic acid derivative, the oral contraceptive pill (if you're female), topical clindamycin, a systemic antibiotic such as tetracycline, or a dermatology referral for possible isotretinoin. All acne is manageable today; it's not a hygiene or lifestyle problem. We can help.

Question 7

how do get rid of pimples quickly?

Accepted Answer

Not easy: No real way to quickly control acne. Takes time. Sometimes oral steroids can be used to quickly lessen/shut  down acne for a special occasion (photo shoot/wedding), but will usually cause flare when steroids wear off, and then there is the steroid risk. Usully takes abt 12 weeks to control acne, would see a dermatologist.

Tough: The best answer would be to wait until your hormones settle down, but somehow i believe you are not satisfied with this answer. There have been tons of different "natural" ways suggested, but none has been shown to work. Sorry!
