Tiana asked:


Until now I have had mild acne but nothing that left any permanent scars. About 3 months ago, I started having really bad breakouts on my forehead and it left a few scars. Normally, I would just apply cocoa butter to the scars and they would eventually go away but I have had these scars for two months and I have seen little to no improvement. Does anyone know of a good acne treatment for African Americans? Preferably something that shows quick signs of improvement.

My acne flares up a few days before my period, then almost completely disappears a few weeks later. It seems to be a hormonal thing, and I was wondering if the hormones in contraceptive pills would help. There seem to be lots of different types of the pill, so which would be best for my case?

Kellie asked:


I have a minor acne problem on my chin and the corner of mouth. I recently went to the dermatologist to find out how to get rid of it. She prescribed oral medication that treats acne. My question is how does the oral medicine know where the acne is and how does it clear it up? I guess I’m just really skeptical about this whole thing. Thanks!
