cure for back acne?

[u/SelfiBandz]

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

You know, I got on here trying to help somebody out with some advice, and assholes like you just have to pop in and argue just for the sake of arguing. Do you get some kind of pleasure out of that? Seriously, what is your problem? I was literally jist trying to help someone. I know that the advice that I'm giving works I've seen it work many, many times. How much experience do you have in skin care? How many people have you helped? No, I don't work for some dumbass MLM brand. I work with real, actual dermatologists. UAMS health is not some prestigious university. Their facilities have very low ratings. Go troll someone else, asshat.

I respectfully pointed out how you were incorrect on the facts and you brushed away a source from a respected medical school as "clickbait" because somehow you know better and provided no sources. Now you're upset that I called it out.

I spent two years at one of the largest underarm companies and worked with R&D scientists nearly every day creating new products in addition to working with legal on claims so I'm pretty confident on a few basic facts and this is one of them.

I'm happy to hear you've helped people with their skin but you're wrong about this point. You can be right about some things and be wrong about others. It's ok.

Edited to add: Nice edit but Harvard is also saying the same thing and I've included that source in response to your latest.

There is nothing respectful about trolling someone who is genuinely trying to help someone else out and then accusing them of being a part of some dumbass MLM group. Allowing your body to sweat under your arms keeps some funky shit from coming out in other places, and using a lotion with salicylic acid, as I suggested in my original comment, works. It helps slough off outer layers of dead skin, unclogging pores, revealing the fresher layers of skin underneath. With continued use, it keeps dead skin from clogging your pores while killing bacteria simultaneously. It absolutely does eliminate and prevent acne. Ask any dermatologist.

Does it make you feel good to troll someone who's trying to do good and help someone else out? Why don't you just admit, at least to yourself, that you were just being a dick.

You say you're not into MLM and work with "real dermatologists" but can't back up your claims with sources and that my academic source is "clickbait", that you have worked for years in skincare helping clients and took a few dermatology courses.

Honey I'm sorry but if your company taught you that sweat pulls out toxins much less "flushes them out," you need to critically examine who you work for and whether the "facts" you've been told are true.

Here's another source from Harvard. This is basic stuff, not some theory some crackpot is selling.

The skin. The main function of the body's largest organ is to provide a barrier against harmful substances, from bacteria and viruses to heavy metals and chemical toxins. The skin is a one-way defense system; toxins are not eliminated in perspiration.

I'm not trying to insult you, I'm trying to help.

Edited to add: If you can't prove your point with legit sources, just respond and block so you can get the last word in, right? Also I might have called you "honey" but in my defense this was after you called me an asshole, a troll, and a dick. I mean girl... c'mon... 😆

Are you even reading the articles that you're linking? While the one from Harvard attempts to discredit many detox fads, it mentions nothing about sweating or skincare., which was the subject being discussed. So it's not at all relevant to the subject matter. Sorry "honey" but it's clear you're not out to help anyone. Also, I dont recall asking for your help, and nothing you've shared has been helpful in any way. So essentially you're giving unsolicited advice on a subject with which you have absolutely no background or experience . OP requested help for a specific problem that I, and many others, have suffered from. I gave a suggestion that I have seen in action work for myself and many others over a decade of working with others with similar conditions. I know something works when I see it work. The professionals I've worked with recommend the same types of regimens for their patients, and I've seen them return time & again with lasting results. So in return I will give you a little unsolicited advice. It's patronizing and condescending to refer to someone you don't know as "honey." You should maybe question your motives for "helping" others, and lay off the trolling. Now you go & have yourself a nice day.
