I have had mild acne most of my life. I am now a resident physician with several kids, and I work so much that I have fallen into the habit of eating unhealthy. I want to have beautiful skin and a healthy fit body again. I am excited to start the perricone 28 day skin (and body) makeover diet.

I am 29 years old and a mom. I have terrible acne on my face, chest, upper arms, back and my rear end. On top of being unsightly they itch and are painful. I have tried proactiv and gone to the doctor and had no positive results. Though I was told it is cystic acne. I have stopped going out of the house if I can avoid it at all and never wear make-up as it only makes things worse. I am DESPERATE for help. I take supplements and keep my face clean but I don’t know what else to do.My skin is naturally oily and it is so bad that even if I shower in the morning by night I can literally run my nails over my skin and scrape of what looks and feels like oily mud that is gray-brown. Please help me! I want to have my life back!

[...] Blackheads are dark plugs that form within pores. When blackheads form, they clog the pore and oil that continues to be produced is collected behind the blackhead. It is when the pores are clogged that they expand in diameter. When oxygen mixed with the pores clogged with sebum, cellular debris, and bacteria, the pores turn black. This build up can easily cause acne and pimples. [...]

I am interested in your products to clear my face. I have tried everything without results and the holistic aspect interests me. If your products could clear my face it would beat all the other Doctors and regimens I have tried. Look forward to hearing from you!

I too have issues with blackheads on or around my nose. Since I am going through the change I may happen to see a whitehead pop up around the bottom of my face or the top. I didn’t have this issue before. This sounds like a great product.

I feel that I have been in the position described above. You go to the stores and become overwhelmed by all the products that claim to take care of your acne problem, when in reality nothing gets done. And then you find yourself going through each brand performing a trial-and-error to figure out what works for you. The same goes for prescription medications as well. Because there’s no exact way to rid acne forever, some products may work and some may not.

Pimples, blackheads, and any acne whatso ever I have suffered from since I was very young. My skin has been a constant battle, and has caused many heartaches over the year. I have visited several dermotologist, not to mention the hundreds of dollars I have dropped on products to get rid of it. My skin is very sensitive so I have to be very careful with products but my fried purchased a bottle of your facial wash. She constantly raved about how it left her face feeling so clean, and I should at least try it. When I first tried it I was skeptical to say the least but as the days wore on I cleaned my face only with your cleanser. The normal redness from the acne actually started to fade away, and the acne was less intense. I was completely impressed with the results, especially since only prescribed medicine was making even the slightiest dent before. I would love to test your product line to see if I can finally have the skin I have always dreamed of.

I’ve recently begun to follow the Perricone diet and am already seeing improvements in the ‘glow’ of my skin; wanting to try the acne based products and supplements soon. Suffering with blackheads on my jawline and cheeks, downtime from chemical peels kills me and i want to try something milder.
