I'm really worried because I have super sensitive, acne-prone skin and I just started using ACNESTAR soap since I have pimples almost everywhere on my body. I've also been applying pure aloe vera and leaving it on overnight, plus I began drinking Safi from yesterday. But last night, my skin was really itchy. Could this itchiness be from the soap, or maybe it's from combining the soap, Safi, and aloe vera all at once? I'm not sure what to do. Can you give me some advice, please?

ACNESTAR soap contains Salicylic Acid which can sometimes cause skin irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin. Safi is an herbal blood purifier and can sometimes cause allergic reactions in some individuals. Using multiple products together can also sometimes lead to skin irritation. I would recommend stopping the ACNESTAR soap for now and see if the itching improves. You can continue using the aloe vera gel before sleeping as it is generally soothing for the skin. As for Safi, you can also stop it temporarily to see if the itching subsides.

I've heard that chemical peels and Retin A creams might help, but can they really make it go away completely? I'm curious about how effective these treatments are and whether it's worth trying them. Could you let me know if they can actually cure this or just improve it a bit?

I'm dealing with acne and scars on my back and it's really frustrating. My doctor recommended Acnesol, but a few months back I tried Persol Forte and it worked better than Acnesol. The problem is that the acne comes back after I stop using it. Right now, I've gone back to using Acnesol. What should I do to finally get rid of this acne for good?
Continue using Acnesol as prescribed by your doctor. Additionally, you can incorporate Persol Forte back into your skincare routine for better results. Apply Persol Forte once daily on the affected areas after washing your back thoroughly. Make sure to follow up with a non-comedogenic moisturizer to prevent dryness. In addition to these topical treatments, consider using a body wash containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to cleanse your back. This can help prevent new acne breakouts.
