Acne and blemishes affect a person’s quality of life more than we would like to admit. Parents hope and pray that their teens won’t be plagued by these problems, adolescents who have problem skin can’t help being stressed about it, and the scars from difficult cases can last a lifetime. No one likes acne.
Acne can be a real problem for some people and it can be very difficult to deal with when you feel that there is nothing that you can do to help clear the skin blemishes that are a result of zits and pimples. However, a few simple tips for getting rid of acne can really help to put you back on the right track to having healthier and clearer looking skin.
Skin care: In order to have a healthy skin you need to keep your skin clean. Wash your face in the morning and before going to bed at night with a mild cleanser having salicylic acid. In case you have body acne, then ensure that you wash sweat and perspiration, especially after games and exercises. These simple skin care steps will really help to get rid of pimples and blemishes.
Mix a tablespoon of lemon juice with few drops of rose water and apply this mix to the affected area. Wash your skin after 15-20 minutes. This is an excellent home remedy to get rid of blemishes.
Take some sandalwood power and mix it with water to create a paste. Apply this paste to the areas where you have blemishes. Sandalwood creates a soothing effect on pimples and blemishes which are painful. Sandalwood is good for getting a clean clear acne free skin.
Clearasil Vanishing Acne Treatment Cream is one of the highest quality acne blemish treatments currently available on the market. This cream can be used by people with any skin type and has been proven to successfully clear acne damaged skin.
The best acne blemish treatment must undoubtedly begin with treatment that cures the acne first, and one that’s safe for the body. Natural remedies are undoubtedly the best option for acne treatment. Some of the herbs used for natural treatment include lavender, bergamot, poke root, burdock root, dandelion root, Echinacea and chamomile. These herbal remedies serve to reduce inflammation by detoxifying the skin. Aloe Vera is another natural remedy that can significantly help in the overall cleansing of the skin.

Acne blemishes?
I have dark acne blemishes all around my face and I would like them to fade away, not just cover up. What is something good to use that works and how long does it usually take?
Your blemishes aka Hyperpigmentation can be treated with products containing hyrdoquinone (2 to 6%) (which inhibits the production of skin pigment) and will take from 3 months to a year, perhaps even more to fade the blemishes away completely.
The products are usually known as bleaching, fading, or skin lightening creams and they can be bought over the counter or with a prescription, depends on the strength.
You would have to apply it to the spots at least once a day, and always apply a strong SPF sunscreen during the day to ensure that the spots don’t get darker. Avoid applying the fading cream to the other skin because you don’t want those parts to get lighter.
Of course you have to make sure to keep using it everyday until the scars are gone or otherwise they will just come back, so patience pays a lot. But as according to the directions, if you don’t see any results in 3 to 4 months, discontinue. I have been using it on scars for 2 months and I see results.
Some brands are Esoterica and Porcelana (both 2% hydroquinone), they can be found in drug stores. The price range is from 5-12 dollars. I get mine from Wal-mart, so much cheaper. There are stronger products like Dermesse which is 4 percent and has a better formula but can cost you up to 60 bucks and can be found at skin laser centers. And then prescription creams are even more expensive, about $100, but they contain other ingredients like Retin A to help in the process, so it’s probably worth it.
Another solution is microdermabarasion + chemical peel. Very expensive, may take up to six treatments (6 months), you have to make sure you go to a qualified profession. Perhaps your dermatalogy office provides these services, you might want to check.

use netrogena daily scrub every day and mosturise with oil free mosturiser. the scrub will exfoliate the top layer of dead cells and remove the marks with it. but if have raw acne which is red and painful, then wauit till they go down. use advance spot treatment on the raw spots.

I have a friend that had that problem severely.
She got rid of it completely by using a "AcneFree" fading lotion. After using that, she used a peel by Neutrogena. Every time after using the peel, she would take a shower and dermabrate (scrub her skin with a rough sponge).
It was gone in a few weeks.
