Adult Acne Solutions

Although most teenagers get some form of acne, adults in their twenties, thirties, forties, or even older, can develop acne. Men and women alike experience acne, but men get it more severely. There are many adult acne treatments to choose from.

All acne treatments work by preventing new breakouts, and must be used over a period of weeks or months. Even if you begin to see improvement, continue treatment. Follow the directions on the package or as prescribed by your dermatologist.

Over-the-Counter Solutions

There are many over-the-counter adult acne treatments to unblock pores, reduce bacteria and dry out pimples. They contain the acids or antibiotics benzoyl peroxide (such as Neutrogena On-The-Spot), salicylic acid (such as Stri-dex), sulfur or resorcinol (such as Clearasil Adult Care).

Doctor Prescribed Solutions

Agressive Solutions

Beyond oral and topical medications, there are a number of other options for adult acne treatment.

Microdermabrasion is basically a sand-blasting technique that can clear up minor blemishes caused by acne. Light chemical peels with salicylic acid or glycolic acid help to unblock the pores, open the blackheads and whiteheads, and stimulate new skin growth. Injections of corticosteroids may be used for treating large red bumps (nodules). Birth control pills have the desirable side effect of treating and reducing acne breakouts.

Laser resurfacing can be helpful in treating acne as well, by vaporizing the acne and clearing the way for new skin to grow.

Perhaps the Quickest and Easiest Solution of All

Hi Chris,

"I have been struggling with acne for the past 15 years. I tried everything from over the counter products to prescribed medications, but nothing worked. All the medication would do is just mask the problem for a while only to have it all come back even worse than before.

Based on my doctor's recommendation, I hesitantly tried Accutane in high and strong dosages, but nothing happened. My acne did not improve at all and I had to deal with all the ugly side effects! I was desperate to find something, anything that would help me to clear my acne for good. I wanted to have clear skin. I was willing to do whatever it took.

That's when I came across your "Acne Free In 3 Days." I was a bit skeptical at first but I did not have anything to lose, so I gave it a try. To my great surprise it worked! My big cystic acne cleared immediately after the 3rd day! My face now looks better than it has in years and I did it all without harsh medications or antibiotics!

I wish I had heard about your book earlier. Following the program you recommend is such a small sacrifice to pay for living an acne free life. It is so worth it! Thank you very much and I definitely recommend it to anyone that is suffering from acne!"
