How effective is LASER ACNE treatment? I've tried many creams and over the counter products, I've gotten prescription cream from dermatologists, and I even used Proactiv Solution before (which didn't work for me). So, I'm looking into getting laser-acne treatment, which I'm hoping would be my last resort. I have a mild case of acne on my face, nothing severe though. So before getting laser acne treatment, could someone tell me if its effective at all? Like does it completely rid of the acne after the procedure is done? How does it work and how much does it cost? And please, no answers suggesting I use creams or creams they you know of that work. I have been following this type of treatment for a LONG time now, and I am definitely gonna try laser treatment. Also, I'm using laser treatment for my entire face.
My acne treatment is ending. Should I change to Proactiv or stick to my original products? I have been using this 4 step treatment for my acne.

Can I use Clearasil (acne treatment) to help make my sty go away? As some of you may already know, I have had a sty for the last few months now. All the remedies I've tried haven't worked so far (the doctor, warm compresses, tea, milk, prescription anti-biotic medications, you name it). So, now I'm thinking about throwing some Clearasil on my eyelid. The theory is: If the sty is like a pimple, then acne treatment products ought to clear it up. My only problem is: Why hasn't anyone ever thought of this idea before? Am I missing something?

Acne treatment? I have read this: Because acne appears to have a significant hereditary link, there is some expectation that cheap whole-genome DNA sequencing may help isolate the body mechanisms involved in acne more precisely, possibly leading to a more satisfactory treatment. (Crudely put, take the DNA of large samples of people with significant acne and of people without, and let a computer search for statistically strong differences in genes between the two groups). However, as of 2005 DNA sequencing is not yet cheap and all this may still be decades off. It is also possible that gene therapy could be used to alter the skin's DNA. link: www.justyourdoc.com Were in USA can i go on this treatment?
