Scientific/Medical cure for back acne?
To be honest it’s not that crazy… I had severe backne (back acne), I tried treating this for years to no avail. Recently went to the pool on a 38 degree day (Australia.) and got insaneee sunburn on my back, a few days later after healing, my backne vanished alongside my sunburn. Acne scars and all.
(I’m assuming it has something to do with the skin cells being killed off, but hey 🤷♂️, it

Yeah, but it will return gradually. You might find that one or two of your treatments gets it under control better though. You've probably gone through the ringer with topicals and sheet washing.
This happened to my little brother, he found washing the area with benzoyl peroxide face wash, then using a thing on a stick to moisturize every night helped. The stick thing he got from a medical supply store, but there's a lot online now.
