what

 

[Never Get Up]

• Stop eating sugar

• Fast for 20 hours a day

• Drink 5 liters of water a day

• Cut out bread

tretinoin/clindamycin topical, use for 6 months, if no improvement oral doxycycline/similar antibitoic + accutane.
There are lots of risks and side effects with accutante, its not as harmless as its made out to be on this forum.
While using tret know it is the gold standard so dont use other stuff the same time you use it. Here is a nexample routine:

AM:
Benzoyl peroxide
Mosteriuser

PM:
Cleanse
Tretinoin/clindamycin
Wait 30m-1h mosteriuser

ensure mosteriuser is non comodogenic and contains hylarouinc acid

looks like bacterial inflmattaroy acne, would avoid doing any more things in your skincare routine until it subsides abit. Just know that you will undergo a purge for the first month where it will be worse and skin goes very dry. Use mosterisuer more often to combat this. This is normal, it means tretinoin is working on everything. The antibiotic clindamycin will reduce it as well as killing bacteria directly.

To reduce the chance of a purge do this:
- For the first month dont use benzoyl peroxide in mornings
- For the first 2 weeks leave 2 days gap between using tret, eg use on monday, then on thursday then sunday then wed etc
- For one month after the first 2 weeks use it every other day only
- After that use it every day.

This will allow it become densistised and reduce purge.

On the days you arent using tretinoin use a medication called Duac which contains a combination of benzoyl peroxide and clindamycin, if you cant get this just use benzoyl peroxide.

if you start getting pores or blackheads on top of this use salicylic acid 2-5% twice a week, use it instead of benzoyl peroxide in mornings. Make sure its a liquid form not a cream with other crap mixed in.

And if your acne is gone by theend of 6 months keep using it, switch from tret/clindamycin to one containing just tret.

accutane

if you start getting pores or blackheads on top of this use salicylic acid 10% twice a week, use it instead of benzoyl peroxide in mornings. Make sure its a liquid form not a cream with other crap mixed in

is your acne/skin stable on that routine? If so i wouldnt add sa acid 10%.

Rest of the routine looks good.

does sa burns fatpads?

does sa burns fatpads?

as a chemical exfoliant is has the ability to penetrate and break down fats and lipids, however this is likely only on the upper layers of the skin. It has not been proven or used to remove fatpads

applying it in the morning and leaving it for 10minutes on before the routine is how u use it?
