Hi, I recently ordered the Proactov solution after I watched its commercial on TV and I got it today (12-08-10). I was very excited to use it for the very first time after only seeing all these people getting wonderful results with this product on the internet. But just as I put the step 2 onto my face, my face started to burn very badly and I’m not sure if it means it’s working. Please help!

I had acne and done treatment for acne but pores and blemishes remain as it is on face. After delivery blemishes and pores are more. Is there any solution to clear scars.

I’m 16 and I have mild acne only around my T-zone.

I have whiteheads, but never have blackheads or cysts.

I have had mild acne for about 4 years now
I have been on benzoyl peroxide topical gels for about 2 or 3 years, and there has been improvement, but it’s just not completely clearing up.

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong!
I don’t touch my face often, I eat healthily, I drink water, I wash my hands before I wash my face (I wash my face twice a day), I moisturize with a non-comedogenic moisturizier, I remove my oil-free makeup thoroughly, and apply my topical acne gel once or twice a day.

However, I have been very stressed lately because of exams, which are over now (thank goodness) and I don’t exercise a lot.

Can you help me? I want to get rid of my acne & redness FOR GOOD.
EDIT: I heard that zinc is good for acne, what foods are high in zinc & what other vitamins/minerals are good for treating acne?

I’m pretty sure it is, i mean i never doubted it. I just never payed that much attention to the fact of that being the cause of my acne. I’m 16 and i have extremely oily skin. I am weird because i break out more on my back and chest rather then my face, my face is usually nearly 100 percent clear. My back and chest are just awful though. I use many cleansers and i take antibiotics but really nothing is working, just swimming and tanning but even then its only temporary. Anyways, moving on with life. Is there any way i can balance my hormones, not just for acne but for the fact i have been really cranky and stressing like a b!tch. The more acne i get the more i stress out! so any suggestions on what can balance my hormones and do you think it will help with my skin? Do you think it is also the cause for my extreme oily skin?
