Whether its because you have a pool party coming up, you want to go to the beach with friends, or you just need to know how to get rid of back acne in a week, I have a couple tips that you'll be able to use right away and see results. I must caution you before you proceed. If you can follow a regime for one week how its laid out before you, then you'll see results. But if not, then I recommend you not read this article.
Still here? Good. Lets get started.
First, you'll need a gentle shower scrubber. Key word here is "gentle". You might already have one, but if not, these can be found at just about any store that sells shower supplies. You want something that isn't going to aggravate the skin and make the acne worse. Because half of the reason pimples look as bad as they do is because of the red blood cells, we don't want to cause more blood cells to rush to the pimple by aggravating them.
Now that you have your back scrubber, you'll need a cleanser with benzoyl peroxide in it. While a cleanser with 10% benzoyl peroxide as an active ingredient is preferred, your going to want to listen to your body. If you have sensitive skin that is prone to drying, you might want to try something with a lower amount of benzoyl peroxide. Like with the scrubber, the needed cleanser can be found at almost any local store that sells acne products.
While in the shower, take your new cleanser and put enough to cover your entire back (or the acne affected area) on to the gentle scrubber. Apply to all the affected areas of your body (don't scrub face please) and let the benzoyl peroxide to sit for atleast 2 minutes before rinsing. Keep in mind that the longer the cleanser has, more work it can do. If you'd really like to see quick results, don't rinse the cleanser off, and pat dry your back so that the majority of the cleanser stays on. This is a pretty good method on how to get rid of back acne in a week. Just keep in mind that if you keep the medicine on throughout the day, that it could bleach your shirt. Something to keep an eye on.
Do this routine twice a day, about twelve hours apart for maximum effect.
Next, keep in mind your clothing. While this isn't always a problem for some people, it is for others. You want to make sure that the material of your clothing isn't to tight. This allows to much friction against the skin, making already formed acne worse. The tighter fitting clothes also don't allow the skin to breath, and any sweat that the body produces wont be able to dry easily building up more bacteria on the skin.
Shoot for clothes that give your skin ample room to breath. Doesn't mean you have to change your clothing style dramatically, but keep in mind your skin and how the clothes are going to affect it when wearing it for long periods of time.
