Is it possible to do something similar to a facial, but on my buttocks?  Are there salons that do this kind of treatment?
I have a really annoying acne situation there, that I can't get rid of no matter what I do. Any other suggestion? Something that worked for you? Permanently? Please don't laugh and don't shark.... TIA |

Thanks! I did try this product and it works on the smaller spots but does nothing for a bigger cystic kind. OP |

| I would suggest you make sure your panties are all cotton, that you go commando to sleep at night, and see a derm about big cysts. |

| Yeah, see a derm about the cysts. |

| I'm curious about this too. My DH has this super bad. More on the top of his thighs. We sort of think it's a bacterial infection or something because it's been going on for years. |

| Anti-bacterial soap for bathing? |

| Is it keratosis pilaris? (Well, except the cysts.) I get it on my hips and thighs, sometimes my butt, and didn't know what it was until I was in my late 20s. A lotion like Amlactin helps. |

| Go to a derm! I take doxycycline for my cystic acne. |

| yea it's bacterial. You need an antibiotic to clear the infection. |

| Facial's don't do anything for acne. |

The side effects were horrible with doxy. How do you deal with it? |

| Also try applying tea tree oil with cotton ball. It's the only thing that has worked for me. |

White towels and benzoyl peroxide bar soap.
It can be drying and will bleach your towels and sheets of you aren't careful. If it is too drying, try a body wash with salicylic acid in it. Let your skin air dry completely after bathing. Use gold bond powder if you sweat a lot. Wear cotton underwear and natural fibers like cotton and wool. Don't wear pantyhose or tight pants if possible. It will take a few weeks. Be patient |
