Acne Treatments : How to Get Rid of Chest & Back Acne

[Charizardisdabest1]

Use Proactive..but it costs alot. Im a teen (just turned 13) and grew acnes around 10. I asked my mom about Proacive, she ordered a small pakacage- (about $50?) Idk I forgot. It worked wonderfully and she kept ordering from now on.

[skallepor]

Does working out at the gym cause more acne because of the increased hormone ?

[peepeedick100]

@southparkresident Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Well now I'm sad.

[acovelloful]

I used getacnecure . com for my face and body acne. Great results and now i have clear and smooth skin. Works perfect on male and female both.

[alricky]

i had acne when i was 11, i had it for about 2 years, then i started bodyboarding and getting sunlight and salt water, i hardly ever have a pimple on my face and back and chest anymore

[Friendly0Dan]

i have quite bad acne on my chest and back, and i'm currently on accutane. it helped with my face ALOT... but it isn't really helping with my back and chest...

[dtaurin]

Use PanOxyl Acne foaming wash which has 10% benzoyle peroxide that's meant for the face, back, & chest. Its about 10 dollars and does work! U can find it a Rite AId, Longs(Cbs) or walgreens. Use it twice a day and you should see some improvement after a couple of days of using it. FYI, make sure u rinse it all off because it will give u a chemical burn if u don't.

[missrockcantswim]

i call it backne

[afrotasticcurls]

this was terrible

[TheHighVic]

dont have alot of acne.. but fucked up scars.. -.- how long it takes before they go away?

[ashla1019]

@TheHighVic actually... i doubt the scars will go away.. :[ use a scar cream that makes the scars clear up in a month.. its is expensive but... it actually does help :3

[IamKindness]

I had severe acne when I was younger, and I've found that the best method to keeping it at bay is just staying hydrated (drink water not sodas) and wash yourself daily.

[kschucky]

i wish someone could help me since i have no insurance and cant go to a doctor ive had acne sine i was 13-14 now im turning 21 i have acne on my neck arms face and the most on my chest i feel so embarrassed to leave my house i've tried almost all the products out there there skin id, pro active soups and on and on nothing is working i feel like shit everyday waking up and seeing acne on my face everyday is more worst than other i feel unhappy with myself sometimes i think of the worst

[MrMslovemusic2]

@kschucky i tried proactive too and it did not help...but then i started using acne free and within 3-4 days i saw a difference..i keep using it and a lot of my friends say my skin looks so much better..try it and hope it helps...

[TheVarietyVideos]

I think a way people get chest acne is when they wear their bras to bed, which you have been sweating in or has oils on it from your skin and hair.

[beautybaby014]

i hate chest and back acne :(

[livnlarge1980]

Try Head and Shoulders Classic Shampoo W/ Zinc. It worked on treating mine and I had it bad. Just apply during a shower, and let it sit for a couple minute so the Zinc cna do its thing. then rinse. Also dont use a wash cloth on it. aggravating the skin makes it worst. Dont use hot water. and dont over dry your back.. that girl below said to use Alcohol. I would be worried about that. when you wash away oils your body over produces them causing acne.

[southparkresident]

@bambamactbam I'm not trying to preach but I'll tell you the same thing people told me when I was a teen. Don't pick at them. I have alot of scarring, and on my shoulders I have raised scars that would probably take thousands of dollars to remove. I'm not certain of this but try to cut back on fried foods. I love them too but lately I only get fried fast foods once a week now and it seems to help some. Water is also not a bad idea.

[bambamactbam]

@southparkresident i dont eat fried foods i also have it on my face but when i pop them they dont leave scars... also i have tried so much even pro active and none of them did a thing

[serah0313]

i don't have SERIOUS acne but i have few that are quite noticeable on my chest and back.. i HATE how i can't wear V neck or a low tank tops cuz my acne show and it's embarrassing... and most of cute clothes are like low tops

[0796785059]

@serah0313 i have acne too but drinking water realy works and every day i put achohol on it and it works very well

[cm1315yo]

ugh im already doing all of this, it doesn't get rid of it, it only makes it a bit better. Anyway i don't care that much i still go to the beach and swim :D

[Palamneus]

She forgot that physical irritation is one of the biggest contributors too. Anytime you lean up against walls, lay down in bed, sit in your car or desk or even wear shirts it all causes irritation and leads to breakouts especially if the surfaces are dirty. If you watch carefully you'll notice a pattern from where you've rested and where pimples occur. You really have to minimize your skins discomfort to allow proper healing and healthy growth.

[Palamneus]

@Palamneus

I used to have pretty bad acne on the back, but I exercise outdoors without a shirt (ladies...) and shower regularly and go to lengths in order to avoid irratating my back.Oh and Proactive? Their products mediocre @ best and they are complete sell outs. Never helped free me after 6 months it was stupid. I strongly reccomend AcneFree SEVERE w/ retinol (If you haven't tried this, DO give it a shot) and getting some flaxseed oil and Niaccin vitamins will really help too.

[Dinglot68]

she sounds like a robot...

[bezubezu101]

Have a super day! If I am looking up how to clear my bacne... I am not having a super day, nor am I in a good mood. I need to clear my back and chest acne quick and you said the exact same thing as the other websites did :((

[lalaaaaa000]

i know!

its crazy, they all say the same!

gets on my nerves! i want a solution that will get RID OF IT! not just make it a little better!

[mileycyrusfan4lif3]

dove soap cleared the acne on my back but not on my chesst

[That1sushidude]

really? i tried that a couple times but i havent used dove soap to my back all the time

[maureen0208]

hi there, do you still have blemishes on your back? if not what product did you use?

[OhhItsMeDanny]

ugh I have pimples all over my back and chest. When I change in the locker rooms in school, I try to change quickly to hide them.

[Calpico852]

:( aww

[CUTIETAIL]

AHH! I dont even change out so I have to loose PE points everyday. And I cant wear clothes that I really want to try on because of it! Im trying so hard to get rid of it! :/

[rangedfelix]

@CUTIETAIL guys this is easy just take alcohol and clens ur back with it then dry a little bit then take some vicks, or bengay and rub your back or chest with it then apply lukewarm oil ... then tooh paste ... then repeat for 4 days and its gone .. i had back acne and i know its emberrasing just try it

[AccidentallyFunny]

@rangedfelix You're missing an important key ingredient... Clorox Bleach

[mnfdsng]

@OhhItsMeDanny join the club :/, except it also goes to my shoulders :(

[iamjonathanfruelda]

@OhhItsMeDanny same problem dude...

[Friendly0Dan]

@OhhItsMeDanny me too =\ and in the bedroom ;) its really awkward ... i'm so self conscious about it =\

[southparkresident]

I can't go swimming either. I have a fuckin farmers tan because I won't take my shirt off. And I'm half asian for christsake so I look retarded.

[wickkkked00]

Sea water really makes acne dry..u shuld go swimming more often..if ur embarressed just go in a time whr there arent much ppl arnd or select a free spot..don stress over it or else it will never go away...personal experience :)

[iloverock221]

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO OMFG U MADE MY DAY

[iloverock221]

its really annoying thats why i cant wear tank tops =[

[Icantunderstandyou]

Here's a few things which helped me:

1).Shower twice a day (obvious) with soap.

2).Drink loads of water & eat loads of fruit.

3).Avoid dairy products like the plague and high fat foods. 4).Start by using a 2% Benzoyl peroxide cream every night straight after the shower, then up to the 5% after your skin's used to that up it again to 10%. (This is avalible at your local chemist).

5).Continue till all acne is gone.

This works my friends.

[osmick15]

Dam i hate the acne i got on my chest.. it looks REally ugly :O

[4ourTimber]

its fucking annoying =(

[x5xCoYoTex5x]

i know this may sound weird but the way i got rid of mine was using some soap called dove

[ShadowOftheHated]

yah it works sometimes for me.....

[southparkresident]

I use Ivory. It doesn't clear it up but I do think milder soaps help. Infact Ivory seems to work better than the acne soaps.

[XxlilGelixX]

I tried this and it cleared it a bit.

[bloodshed222]

ive got the same fuckin problem im 16 and my body is built, but im scared to take my shirt off in front of the ladies or when i go swimming = (

[wubbieyoufatty]

dude i have the same prob i have a bunch on my back and chest and my gf wants me to go swimming i have to make up excuses:/

[southparkresident]

I feel you. Same here. Minus the girlfriend. I'll be honest I don't hit on women because I'm afraid they think I'm creepy with my scarred face. It's always people with clear skin telling me how to cure it. They just don't understand.

[bunty1986]

southparkresident...you ever considered the fact that they probably know how to cure it..seeing as they themselves have clear skin?

[southparkresident]

I've had severe acne since about 13 (it's hereditary) and I'm almost 30. There's a huge difference between people who get a few zits and people who suffer from it no matter what. I've tried it all. And like the common cold, there is no cure. You can only treat it. No I've never considered that fact because most people never go what we go through starting at puberty. I just don't like it when people who DON'T have acne try to tell me how to get rid of it, not knowing how hard it is.

[kevingp12]

@southparkresident did you visit a dermatologist?

[hhoney315]

@southparkresident I had acne on my face for about three years but I started using a medication that I applied to my skin every night and it had done wonders! It's called Dalacin, I think there's another name for it too but I'm not sure what it is. I tried it on my chest to try and get rid of those pimples but it doesn't seem to be working on my chest acne. It's great for my face though!

[amwahid25]

@southparkresident I feel your pain. Myself, 29 years, have had it since 12 years and still going strong. These kinds of videos make me laugh. Time, i'm hoping will eventually overcome all of it.

[southparkresident]

@amwahid25 Yeah I'm about to turn 32 and still have it. It's not as bad as my late teens/early twenties but it hasn't vanished. I quit smoking a few months ago, have been working out regularly, and started eating healthier. Unfortunatley it hasn't really changed that much. I thought quitting smoking would definitley help but I don't really see a difference. i think a healthy diet can help but it's not the answer. I also cut down drinking but that didn't do anything either.

[southparkresident]

@amwahid25 If anything, alcohol in moderation seems to kinda help.

[xlithiumgirlx]

i can say this, going into a pool, or going to the beach and laying out in sun, will defintely help some...fer sure

[FarrenfollowsBen]

lolololololololol is your anaconda hard to reach?

[mestrada251]

actually, i'm going to tell all of you the truth, i DO NOT BELIEVE in DERMATOLOGY and those stupid doctore. I have been to four of them, and none of them have been able to help me.... all they did was give me some stupid pills and cremes and they never worked... so here some advice.... save you money and just DEALLL!!! Realy it will be less emotional and less painful,,,, yes i have scars, ubt i guess i was just meant to have them.... DERmatologists dont help at all.....

[Jackcouldcanyou]
