Work with a dermatologist.\nKeep affected skin clean with soap & water.\nAcne is caused by hormones, dirty skin.

pimples are caused by hormones.  Proactive works really well.  My skin looks great and I've been using it for about a month.  I used to work in a skin care clinic and I'm a nurse.  You can pop pimples but you have to open it with a needle first.  Just lightly flick the needle over the head of the pimple, then gently squeeze.  Make sure to wash your face and hands first.  It will dry up faster if you do this.

Right diet, enough sleep and always smile! Dont think about your problem, they always have solution. The more you think the more the stress, and stress sometimes is the cause of acne. Enjoy life!

tell her that popping zits in general is bad. it allows bacteria to enter your body. and you don't want to get infection/sick...

pimples have nothing to do with food or drinks......it is a skin problem wich can be resolved with good skin care. Try INDerm.....it's very helpfull. Also being out doors and fresh air have proven very helpfull

If I were you, I would change dermatologists.  If he had foot acne and can not remember how he got rid of it, I would SERIOUSLY question his credentials!  Good Luck.\n\n(I have never heard of foot acne either!!)

nothing actually. a friend of mine has a daughter who has had them since she was very young because of something that happened. cocoa butter is good to moisturize them and possibly minimize them a bit if you put it on as soon as they appear. but for ones that have been there awhile there's not much you can do. they do fade over time though.

Bummer!  The first thing I would do in your situation would be to attempt to determine whether or not they're really pimples.  Where are they located on your face?  Are they limited to [a] specific area(s), or are they just random eruptions?  Are they on the very surface of your skin, or do they seem to be underneath the skin?  If you're sure that what you have are pimples, then I guess you could move on to the next step in the process to eliminate them.  \n\nThat next step might consist of you trying to assess the cause of your pimples.  This is where you carefully examine your diet, your facial cleansing routine and the products involved in it, what you've been exposed to, how often you wash your face, your shampoo, exfoliation, your facial moisturizer, your diet, how you wear your hair, what you use on your hair, any makeup products you use on your face, sunscreen, tanning lotions, exposure to harsh temperatures and climate related elements, how you touch your face, and how often you touch your face.  That last part is VERY important.  Do you scratch, pick, poke, squeeze, and prod at your blemishes?  Lots of people don't realize that they themselves are responsible for facial blemishes simply because they touched their own face with dirty or contaminated hands and fingers.  Maybe you should be washing your hands a little more if you happen to be one of those people who touches their face often...  And what about your pillowcase?  When was the last time you changed / washed that thing?  Lots of times, dirt, oils, and other contaminants from your hair and face which are excreted during your slumber remain in the fabric and could be the cause of your blemishes as well.  \n\nThere 'are' over-the-counter preparations which are designed to combat acne and deal with pimples but I think it's much wiser to first try to do all the things you can to remedy this problem at home before you go spending money on something which may or may not work for you.  You might find that you need to switch to a soap that doesn't leave a residue on your face.  Perhaps you're using too harsh of a cleanser on your face, so your skin is really dried out, and, as a result, has begun to over-produce oil to compensate.  If you work out, and do a lot of sweating, perhaps your own perspiration is responsible for your facial eruptions.  At any rate, it would be in your best interest to exercise a little trial-and-error before you go wasting your money.  \n\nFor the record, I think it's best to let you know that in the process of getting your skin cleared up, your pimples might seem to get worse before they start looking like they're getting better.  I don't know why that's always the way with skin irritations and other dermatological complaints, but it is.  I guess it has something to do with the fact that your skin is a large membrane, and it's got to endure a lot of stuff on a constant basis.  Plus, it's ever-changing...  \n\nBut anyway...  If all else fails, and you can't figure out what's causing these pimples, or you've changed everything you can think of, and they're still present, I would definitely recommend seeing a dermatologist or esthetist for at least a consultation session.  It might be a little easier for them to determine the cause of and remedy / treatment for your blemishes.  They can actually help you correctly identify if you really are dealing with pimples or if perhaps you've developed some type of allergic reaction to something you've ingested or been exposed to.  \n\nAt any rate, I wish you the best of luck in getting rid of your blemishes.  I hope something I've said helps you.

The first crops of beard look charming... do not shave them off for a few months... \n\nOily skin gets pimples... so wash your face 2-3 times a day and apply calamine... \nIn winters, washing many times is not required... do not touch the pimples, as it is harmful...

You should ask his doctor .... it could be different skin pigmentation . I had a friend in high school that had these spots, on her arms & hands, back and legs.

i would suggest going to a dermatologist.  they can best tell you what is good for your skin.  besides, the best stuff you can only get with a prescription

if it is not that serious, just wash your face twice a day. if it is semi-serious, than use a product called "acne-free". if it is really serious, then you should probably see a dermatologist.\n\ni used acne-free and it worked a lot.

Just a few tips :). Wash your face no more than 3 times daily as washing it too often will only worsen the pimples. Try to stay away from oil-based make up; it can trap bacteria and cause EVEN MORE breakouts...\n\nIn terms of remedies---Do you have Aloe Vera at home? I know this sounds a tad mucky (it is), but if you do, crush to soften then rub it on the skin's surface. Leave it on for a few minutes...it works fairly well. \n\nHaving said all that. Why not try ProActive? It's really great. It has helped my skin tremendously; I'm sure it could work wonders on yours :).\n\nTake care. Hope I was able to help! :D

Yes I have. My bf had this on his. He had it since he was ten years old. Before he was sexually active. It has never bothered me. A person can get acne everywhere, why not on their genitals. For all the other ignorant ppl answering this. Its not an STD dumbass. Go to the dermatologist. There is a specified cure just for this. And its not herpes.
