Question
Hello.  I am in my thirties and still dealing with acne.  I had this under control with birth control pills but since I went off of them, it has flared again.  They are cystic like and appear mostly on my forehead.  I use tea tree oil but it doesn't seem to help.  Any suggestions?

Answer
Look into auyvedic medicine.  I believe you would beneefit from those therapies.  I have heard clove oil is good for this type of acne and tea tree oil.  I would stay off pastas and diary.   I would try a cleanse. there is alot of products out there on cleansing.  Start with a colon cleanse.  go to the health food store and check one out.  Thats a start  Good Luck Jayne
