HOW TO CLEAR YOUR SKIN WITH BENZOYL PEROXIDE| DR DRAY

Georgia Foster what do you use?

[@geefostaa]

Cindy Becker i use panoxyl! Or the generic brand

[@samsensation786]

You ever tried differin?

[@darajohnson4617]

Suggested routine for use in wash form: -Use a gentle cleanser to remove makeup/dirt/sunscreen. -Lather on benzoyl peroxide wash (on damp skin) to areas that have acne. Use simple circular motions with pads of the fingers, and leave on for 2-3 minutes. Be sure to avoid eyes/lips! -Rinse off. -While skin is still damp, use a moisturizer. In the morning, use sunscreen as well.

[@kdxkm9896]

Can I use the BP cleanser everyday or should I introduce it to my skin slowly (like using it once-twice a week first before using it every single day)? :) and is it okay to use the The Ordinary Moisturizer after? :)

[@ghhhhhhhhhh]

can I use a benzoyl wash before retinol at night? I don't want to wash my face 2x a day, but i need tretinoin and BP.

[@Sofiaemilyo]

@@ghhhhhhhhhh your not supposed to mix the 2 but what I do is use a BP wash in the shower in the morning & at night I use a gentle face wash with trentinoin (I think I spelled that wrong) but I don’t use Trentonin everyday I use it like 3 times a week

I've found benzoyl peroxide to be more effective than salicylic acid in controlling acne flareups. My sister alternates between salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide and hibiclens in controlling her underarm hidradenitis suppurativa. It really works.

[@prairiecreations]

I began using it under my arms as well. Huge difference. I've got my teen daughter doing that and I've told my kids as well.

[@mistytells]

I have that immune disease, also. Just found out that they labeled it an immune disease, recently. They wanted me to get on a biologic drug called Humira but I refused.

[@DrDrayzday]

[@noneofbusiness7739]

Misty Telling I read about that as a treatment. My sister’s dermatologist recommended hibiclens wash and tretinoin 3 times a week. She uses Hibiclens a few times a week with tretinoin. The other days she uses a Panoxyl 4% wash and a stridex salicylic pad. Clear underarms and no underarm smell.

[@ani_0007]

I agree, I use this ointment called Duac prescribed by my Doctor, it had Benzoyl P in it which significantly reduces the spots in size and flattens them, salicylic did nothing for me.

Has your skin improved?

[@andrevaladares1904]

Same

[@JessieR2023]

For years when I was a teenager I used salicylic acid cleanser to treat my acne. It was over exfoliating my skin and leaving it tight after every wash. Once I switch to benzoyl peroxide my acne flatten down and my skin calm down instead of drying up like it did with salicylic acid. I wish they stop advertising salicylic acid as an acne treatment. I use salicylic acid cleanser once a week as an exfoliant. I don’t have acne anymore, but once in a while my skin breaks out and I use benzoyl peroxide cleanser and my skin back to normal.

[@wizdum4957]

Yeah I agree, cerave salicylic acid facial wash, and it just cleared my complexion UNDER my acne. It didn’t really target my acne. It’s great for getting rid of those tiny bumps tho.

[@kthewhite7453]

I've been using benzoyl peroxide gel since 2008 and it's the ONLY treatment to clear my nodular acne. When I was a teen I'd use salicylic acid and it would always irritate my skin. BP 5% or less doesn't irritate my skin at all.

[@str8harry]

Same. Every esthetician I saw would only recommend salicylic to like it was just this cure all product, but it literally never did anything for me. Then I use BP and after literally one wash I could tell it was actually doing something.

[@TrebleMuave]

Your acne might not be fungal acne since SA works ONLY on fungi while BP works on anaerobic bacteria.

[@StephanieRZ]

Alternating between Salicylic Acid(morning) & Benzoyl Peroxide(night), plus using a toner that suits your skin type that is alcohol-free, unscented, and natural, may be great holy grails for clearer skin. :) I personally like Neutrogena's Oil-Free Acne Wash or Neutrogena's Rapid, Clear, Stubborn Acne Scrub (both products are 2% Salicylic Acid). And Neutrogena's Rapid, Clear, Stubborn Acne Gel (Maximum Strength Benzoyl Peroxide/10%). Using a sunscreen spf 30 as part of your regime the next day would help. ♡ And toner, Thayer's Witchhazel Rosepetal toner is a good option that should be used with a cottonball gently & allowed to patiently be absorbed + cool water after helps with redness if there's any. These would likely help with hormonal acne, I myself am going through its journey to clearer skin. Products listed are only as guides lol or examples/references but they help. Moisturizing and/or a noncomedogenic oil also are very important. 💞💞 Nourish the skin, as you're helping its acne go away!

[@justWJ]

@@nadiaruiz1945 my hormonal acne is a thing of the past! I would say it cleared completely by 6 months. Now I only have an occasional white head that clears on its own. The reply by Stephanie was spot on. Bp wash at night and salicylic acid in the morning was my routine with witch hazel as my toner. Consistency is key. It will probably get worse before it gets better but please don't get discouraged. There is light at the end of the tunnel. And now I just use basic face wash by Neutrogena but if I see an uptick I just break out either the bp wash or salicylic acid wash for maintenance

When i was 13 i started down the breakout road. Mostly on my chin and lower checks. My mom got me some benzoyl peroxide wash and lotion. I used for the first and only time , that night. I woke up with peeling ,burning, red swollen skin. Mom took me to the pediatrician. He sent me to the dermatologist for the first time. I'm allergic / too strong for my skin. My mom felt soooo bad. Dermatologist gave me a small list of 2 products wash and moisturizer. All were Neutrogena and fragrance free. And he told me to throw away any makeup brushes I used with Natural hairs. And get synthetic hair brushes. Wash them every week with a mild soap. Stop using any astringents. He prescribed a sulphur wash to be used only in the area of the break outs. Never had a zit again. Lesson learned. I need a dermatologist in my life! My Skin is way to sensitive to not have one. I was nervous to start Retin A. But I took what I learned from Dr. Dray to him and he was total on board. My skin texture has improved 100% . My malasma is almost gone!!! ❤

Retinoids such as tretinoin, acids such as salicylic, and benzoyl peroxide are just a few of the products that cause purging. These products contain active ingredients that increase the skin cell turnover rate, therefore causing your skin to purge. ... Alongside its many benefits is the side effect of initial skin purging :D

[@speshulgay]

Best benzoyl peroxide I’ve ever found: Dr Song 2.5%. I got it from Amazon it’s a huge tube, good price for the amount cuz it lasts forever. It’s a great lightweight gel consistency and it spreads easily, you don’t need much. I use it everyday and it’s the only thing that controls my acne.

Hi Dr Dray. May I know your thoughts on Proactiv? My husband has been so dependent on this line, practically his entire life. He refuses to try other products. Hoping to convince him to try PanOxyl. Thank you so much and wishing you and your viewers great health!

[@yasmin8609]

Thanks for the amazing vid! Questions please for epiduo: -why would i use this all over when acne is only on jaw and cheeks? -once acne is cleared how long should we use it? Forever? Your skin is clear so why use it still? - if it is forever use, do we drop it down to few days week once skin cleared? - if we want to get pregnant and come off it, do we titrate down rather than stop suddenly (and do we risk rebound flare ups) Subscribed, liked and my huge Thanks 😘

Happy Wednesday, Dr. Dray! Thanks so much for doing this video and covering this subject again. I have always had issues with body acne and I've currently been using the Differin benzoyl peroxide wash but haven't been impressed with it and am planning to switch to PanOxyl based on all the info you've posted about it in your vids. This definitely helps me know how to better implement it in my daily routine. Watching your channel has helped my skin so much!

I have had acne since I was 10 years old. Now I'm 20, and my skin is much ok. I have used many soaps, creams and antibiotics, but did not see any improvements. Recently, I just started to implement this ( *AcneCureOnline. Com* ). Getting good results so far. I will continue with it, if it seems good further.?

[@TheDaysEnd]

TheDaysEnd 1 second ago I am surprised the Differin deep cleanser BP wash didn’t work for you. The formulation is a lot more simple and should have less of a chance of causing irritations compared to Panoxyl. It’s like 7 ingredients vs 20 ish in either 4 or 10% panoxyl. The Perrigo BP cleansers have a similar formula to the Differin with the addition of a few extra ingredients but still like 9 or 10 vs 20 something in Panoxyl.

Thank you for the information, Dr dray❤️ my question is, can benzoyl peroxide 5% face wash help with fading hyperpigmentation as well left from pimples.

[@lavonhill1676]

I wish I or my mother would have known about this decades ago! I had terrible cystic acne for many years and have terrible scarring on my face and back from it. My daughter is starting to get acne about the same age as I was. I’m trying more than anything to prevent her having to go through what I did. I would never forgive myself if she did,

Thanks for this video!! Can't wait to try the panoxyl cleanser, my skin reacts well to Benzoyl Peroxide. I'm wondering though if I could also use the Differin gel (on my cystic acne) in conjunction with the cleanser? I don't have sensitive skin so would that work?

Hey it should! Benzoyl peroxide and a retinoid is a common treatment for acne, that’s actually the combo in epiduo. There are some videos showing how to incorporate it in

To anyone who has come across this video it works. because it's the summer i really needed something to stop the "hiding acne" from coming, and this has worked so far. i also use it along with a 3% to let it sit on the scaring and fade it. it's only been 4 days and my scares and previous acne is less dark from tampering with it. if anyone is wondering about how a week of process will look i'm gonna update until my scaring is gone.

[@ericgagnon6450]

update

[@IIISincerelyIII]

@@ericgagnon6450 Half of the acne is gone the other spots are fading and i haven't gotten any other flare ups considering its the summer time i usually break out on my shoulders and all over my face, but going into week two nearly everything is only a bit noticeable. by week 4 i believe everything would be cleared up. also i did it 3 times a day. (washing my face in the morning bathe in the evening and washing my face at night but every time after that wash you would apply the 3 percent on ur dark spots. to speed up the healing process and so far it works wonders.)

[@squid_party8810]

@Dr.Dray Obsessed with your content. You’ve taught me so much about skin care! Can I use Panoxyl and Nizoral together on my face? Or is that to much drying ingredients at once?

2 years late yet this is the only video I saw on youtube that I can rely on. Good Day, Dr. Dray! I hope you will still be able to read my comment. I would just like to ask if the routine I am having right now is okay for my very very very acne prone skin that I am battling for almost 5 years now, I think. Here it goes: AM: 1. Micellar Cleansing Water 2. Panoxyl Foaming Wash 3. Oil Control Toner (non-comedogenic) 4. Vitamin C Serum w/ Niacinamide, Salicylic Acid and AHA. 5. Non-comedogenic Moisturizer 6. Sunscreen PM: 1. Micellar Cleansing Water 2. Gentle Facial Cleanser 3. Oil Control Toner (non-comedogenic) 4. Benzoyl Peroxide (5%) 5. Non-comedogenic Moisturizer
