Anyone got any tips for dealing with bacne? Do you treat it the same way you would facial acne?
>>34829777Try to find some kind of BPO lotion for use in the shower. I used pic related. You wash yourself normally at first, with normal shower gel. Then you put the BPO solution all over your back. You wait five minutes, standig in the cubicle and reflect on your life. Then you wash it down with pure water. Obv instructions might differ for different products.
I think you get a stupid looking wand to apply cream, and wear a vest under your shirt.I went to a private school where boys were expected to wear white cotton business shirts, the back-ney was a constant issue for the Greek kids who seemed to all get it. Cream and a stupid wand.
>>34829850Thanks for the suggestion, I'll look into it. >>34829853>stupid wand Is there maybe a smart wand instead?
>>34829777Change your shampoo / conditioner / wash routine. That is honestly all it takes. Be careful if you take any supplements because they can irritate your internal biome.
>>34829777Idk, my skin is always a little messed up too, but i don't give a fuck. It's not that bad.Ask a doctor. Or AI.
>>34829777Just flex your back muscles
Super jealous of people with a spotless back.
>>34829777dont fucking roid
>>34829777- use an exfoliating brush or cloth on your back in the shower. Do this before you use soap -wash and clean your bed sheets regularly-wash your shirts regularly, dont wear older ones without washing -remove your shirts after a day out and immediately after you get back from the gym-sleep without a shirt to let your back air out someDont know what your diet is like, but if youre eating a lot of greasy fast food, cut back on that and try drinking more water and eating more veggies and fruitsall essentially free shit you can do
>>34829777Wash your bedsheets, bath towel, everything thats going to touch your skin, now, and use clean stuff.Go take a shower and wash your back, then apply an acne cream to your acne.Wash daily, replace your sheets and bath towel daily, until this shit is gone.
>>34829777if all else fails, go to a dermatologist, they'll probably prescribe you accutane if your bacne's bad enough. it works wonders.
>>34829777Wash your sheets more than once a monthYour clothes too, stop wearing the same PJs to bed every night you greasy sweaty fuck/Thread
>>34829777I tried every dumbass cream you can think of and the only thing that did it was sunbathing (and no I didn't use sunblock)
>>34829777Not sure if this helps. But it looks like you sleep on your left side?Switching your bed and pillow sheets stupidly often always helps, like every day, or every second day.You can try it out with your face by sleeping on a fresh towel on your pillow every day. I acknowledge that the towel proposal is a bit cumbersome for bacne.
>>34831765this photo isn't of me kekmy bacne is mostly limited to my upper back, and i think that's mainly because of dirty shirts + sitting in my gayming chair + not bathing as regularly as i used to
>>34830440Best advice in thread
>>34829777Stop taking test injections or steroids you retard
>>34830440>use an exfoliating brush or cloth on your back in the shower. Do this before you use soapAny explanation for why you should exfoliate before using soap? I usually scrub my entire body down with one of these exfoliating gloves (back included) with the bar of soap inside the glove. I've heard that exfoliants can cause acne to get worse because of the irritation, though, which is why i avoid using this thing on my face. Doesn't seem to make much difference either way on my bacne, but if there's a legitimate reason for doing it in a specific manner, I'd like some more information that can back that claim up. >sleep without a shirt to let your back air out someI try to wash my bed sheets at least once a week, but sometimes I end up putting it off due to the entire process being a time consuming pain in the ass. After about 2 weeks sleeping in the same sheets becomes uncomfortable enough that it becomes a priority, though. I guess I can try sleeping without a shirt on to see if it helps. I'm thinking I should just make a point to change my shirt before I sleep. I've gotten in the habit of wearing the same shirt for a day or two if I don't end up going anywhere, which is probably a major contributor to the sudden increase in bacne. >>34832304I'm not a /fit/izen-- got 0 interest in roids. I *do* take amphetamines, though, which definitely do fuck with hormones a bit. I've heard of some people who break out when they take adderall, and I've noticed a trend between acne and amphetamines. But I think it's mostly because of the way the drug affects behavior rather than the drug itself. Either way, quitting adderall isn't an option right now, so whatever solutions there are have to take my use of the drug into consideration.
Eat clean then be clean (hygiene)
>>34829777Clean bed sheets every single day, if that's too much sleep on a towel and swap every sleep. This solved my back crap when i was in highschool till i grew out of it
>>34829777Ewwwww.
>>34829777let me guess you use "bodywash".
>>34833637>every single day What the fuck
Has anyone here had bacne and then successfully gotten rid of it? A lot of this advice seems like it's not based on personal experience.
>>34837441no its shit genetics and all the posts itt are cope, except if its acquired/disbalanced homeostasis or from roids. then they will surely help.my dad has acne on the back, i have it too. albeit its not bad at all like ops pic or that he/i would have to do anything about it or that i would have bad feels/less confidence in myself. its just unappealing to look at and sunbathing and less sugar intake definetly helps a little.my dermatologist honestly just recommended some sort of acid/rubbing alcohol to dry the skin and then rubbing it off. but guess what, the alcohol burns like a mf bitch. ive done that exactly once and then never again. also it will leave your skin with scars/darker spots either way. so not worth it at all.>t. very clean and hygiene-pedantic person
>>34837441yes, me. i'll say it again, go to your dermatologist, they'll prescribe you some accutane if they aren't retarded (for some reason some of them are reluctant to prescribe you accutane despite the fact that the side effects are extremely minimal if you aren't a pregnant woman), it works wonders, it completely cleared up my face, back and chest acne. it also worked on both of my parents back in the day. though i've still got really bad acne scars so my back still looks like shit but there isn't much i can do about it. this is coming from someone with terrible genetics, both of my parents had acne until they were well into their 30s.
>>34837441It's pretty much purely genetics sadly. When I was a teen I had HORRIBLE backne and then the moment I turned 18 it all just stopped.
>>34841628>the moment I turned 18 it all just stopped.lol the moment i turned 18 it just started for meweird
>>34841466>your dermatologist,I dont have one. I dont even go to the doctor unless I need to get stitches or something more serious.
>>34829777Embrace the bacne and roid up bro
>>34845406find one then. it really isn't that hard. unless you're broke, of course, in that case good luck man.
>>34841466I’m not gonna get on accutane, that’s a pretty severe drug for the kind of bacne I have. It’s not genetic either, it’s just due to poor hygiene.
Get meds for treating pimples. Some things are so severe that you have to rely on modern medicine
>>34845406I use 4% hydrogen peroxide to reduce the swelling and redness and 2% salicyclic acid to make it go away faster.This setup is pretty effective given how cheap it is, its better than a lot of crap on the market as well. But I havent done too much experimentation.
