Acne treatment?
I’ve heard Accutane is the closest to a cure for acne. My acne isn’t severe enough for accutane, but its quite bad and I feel I need something powerful and effective.
What is the next strongest/effective treatment after accutane?

Acne diet
Acne : Home Remedies suggested by users
All-fruit Acne diet
To begin with, the patient should take only an ‘all-fruit’ diet for a week, taking three meals a day, of fresh juicy fruits, such as apples, pears, grapes, grapefruit, pineapples, and peaches. Only unsweetened lemon or plain water, either hot or cold, should be drunk and nothing else.
Well-balanced Acne diet
After the one-week, all-fruit diet, the patient can gradually adopt a well-balanced diet with emphasis on raw foods, especially fresh fruit and vegetables, sprouted seeds, raw nuts, and wholegrain cereals, particularly millet and brown rice. Further short periods of the ‘all-fruit’ diet for three days or so may be necessary at a monthly interval till the skin’s condition improves.
Avoid strong tea/coffee, soft drinks and processed foods
Meats, sugar, strong tea or coffee, condiments, pickles, soft drinks, candies, ice cream, refined and processed foods should be avoided as far as possible.
Other Acne natural treatments
Warm-water enema
During the initial one week ‘all-fruit’ diet, a warm-water enema taken daily cleanses the bowels. Apply hot fomentation locally to open up the pores and to bring out the waste matter. Then rinse the affected parts with cold water.
Hot Epsom salts bath
A hot Epsom salts bath twice a week is beneficial in all cases of acne. This bath is prepared by adding 1 ½ kg of Epsom salts to 60 litres of water having a temperature of about 37.8° C. The patient should remain in the bath tub for 25-35 minutes till he sweats freely. After the bath, the patient should cool off gradually.

I have mild acne ( papules, pustules, blackheads, brown and red marks) and since I’ve been using this treatment, I haven’t broken out even once:
–Morning–
Cleanse- Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser
Massage onto dry face for 20 seconds and rinse
Moisturize- Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream
Apply a very smal amount to face. Avoid eye area. DO NOT apply the cream on T-zone if you have oily skin.
–Night–
Cleanse- Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser
Massage onto dry face for 20 seconds and rinse
Exfoliate- Baking soda mask
Mix 1/2 a tablespoon of baking soda with a couple of drops of water to make a paste. VERY gently massage onto face for no more than 20 seconds and rinse off.
Tone- Apple Cider Vinegar Mask
1 teaspoon of Apple Cider Vinegar and 5 teaspoons of water.
Apply to face with a cotton ball and rinse off after 10 minutes.
Note: Always dilute the ACV in water.
Protein Mask- Eggwhite Mask
1 egg white or a table spoon of egg whites that come in a carton.
Add five drops of lemon.
Mix until frotty.
Apply to face and leave on for 10 minutes.
Rinse off.
Medicate- Clean & Clear Persa-Gel 10
Apply a small amount on problem areas.
Moisturize- Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream
Apply a very smal amount to face. Avoid eye area. DO NOT apply the cream on T-zone if you have oily skin.
If you don’t have red or brown marks from acne, then you can skin the whole exfoliate, tone, and protein mask part. You should only exfoliate once or twice a week otherwise.
I know it’s ALOT of work, but if you do it Iguarantee you you’ll be acne free.
You should also take a zinc supplement, but you must take it on a full stomach or you;ll get sick.
For Acne to reduce drink plenty of water.
