A member asked:

Is it true that you may get even more pimples/skin problems if you take a full bath more than daily? i am asking this because the water is quite salty

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: This is just one more bit of folklore. Instead, i'd urge you to have your acne treated scientifically. If two weeks on benzoyl peroxide has not worked, or you have acne on your trunk, get with your physician. A topical or systemic antibiotic will usually clear you, or for severe / cystic acne, a dermatology consultation is in order.
