Although there are thousands of success stories using acne treatments prescribed by qualified physicians like the ones you can find here on our site when conducting an online acne consultation, there are some unusual and quite frankly, bizarre stories about successes with unconventional methods.  Please do not try this at home folks.  This is purely for entertainment value and we only recommend clicking on the ‘Request a Consult’ above for the best advice and immediate prescription needs based on your specific needs.

1.Aromatherapy Acne Treatments: Aromatherapy is the practice of using essential oils (the pure essence of a plant) and volatile plant oils for psychological and physical well-being.   Absolutes, CO2s and Hydrosols are also commonly utilized in practicing Aromatherapy.  

According to Aromatherapy experts ’smelling’ the following as acne treatments will resolve your ailment:
a. Bergamot
b. Lavender
c. Rosemary
d. Rosewood
e. Thyme-Linalol
f. Tea Tree Oil

2.Ayurveda Acne Treatments:  According to Ayurvedic experts, you should create and apply a paste of Tumeric and Sandalwood externally to affected areas (one half a teaspoon of each and enough water to make a paste), then drink one-half a cup of Aloe Vera juice twice daily (yuck)  until the acne clears.  Imagine showing up for work with ‘smelly paste’ all over your face!

3.Bodywork Acne Treatments: Massage, acupressure, shiatsu, reflexology (including focus on Liver, Adrenals, all glands, Kidneys, Intestines and Diaphragm) and Lymphatic drainage massage are often recommended for skin problems.  Lymphatic drainage massage?  Sounds pretty painful!

4.Homeopathic Acne Treatments: Homeopathy is the practice of introducing a minuscule amount of an aggravant into the system and then relying on the body’s natural defense mechanism to fit off the full blown aggravant.  Homeopathic doctors recommend using Pulsatilla, Silicea, Berberis, Ledum, Sulfur, Arsen alb., and Belladonna (a known poison) as acne treatments.  Homeopathic acne treatments are typically introduced by placing their remedy under the tongue to dissolve more quickly into the blood stream.  Imagine, poisons under your tongue as acne treatments, on the fast track into your blood stream.

We recommend something less painful and easier to swallow.  Click on the ‘Request a Consult’ Button above and get a ‘real’ doctor’s online acne consultation to discuss your specific options.  Our doctors are educated in all of the latest breakthroughs in prescription topical solutions and other acne treatments available and can give you a prescription on the spot.
