How do I treat acne spots on my shoulders?

Answer by  bubbyboy (9929)

Acne spots on your shoulders can be treated like acne anywhere else. Use acne topical cream and then you can cover the spots with make up.

Wash the Affected areas with an anti bacterial cleanser that has been formulated for use on the face. Avoid regular soaps which can aggravate acne on shoulders. Let keep the skin air-dry.

Wash the area with a gentle foaming face wash made for acne treatment- I like Clean and Clear. Use an oil-free moisturizer (again, I like Clean and Clear and it's good to use products of the same line-they have similar formulas) and sunscreen on the area to prevent further damage and irritation that can be caused by the sun.

You will want to encourage cell regrowth, so massaging the area, making sure it gets warm treatment from a shower or compresses, and even applying lotion will help. There are also special creams that can reduce scars and blemishes. If it is actual acne that is bothering you, OTC acne treatments can be applied to your shoulders.

Place hand towel in warm water for sometime and then place the towel on the affected area to cleanse the skin.

Keep your shoulders clean and dry. Try using a lotion with alpha hydroxy acid in it. If it is a severe acne on your shoulders you should try using Accutane.
