just to share my experience with acne...i meant very bad experience.

i've always been proud of my skin...no acne problem throughout my teenage life...my nightmare started after i gone thru a dental surgery. Can u imagine from zero acne to a face full with acne? believe me, its really scary...

would suggest the following:
-never extract acne with fingers (use suitable tools).
-don't try to cover your face using your hair / cosmetics.
-try not to touch the affected area with dirty / unwashed hands.
-get professional to extract it for u if u do not know how to extract it yourself..(luckily i have a beautician sister )
-no facial massage as it will become worst.
-apply cold aloe vera gel after extract & i even use it every nite b4 going to bed (highly recommended).
-detoxification programme.
-no spicy, deep fried & grilled food..take more fruits, plain foods.
-be determine & consistent if u want to recover from acne.

it actually took me at least a year+ to recover...& ever since i gained back my confidence but still need to work hard to minimize the acne scars (got it by extracting using fingers ).

hope it helps...
