Here's some tips how to get rid of back acne :
- Take Proper Showering
Showering daily and using mild soap or body wash to slough away excess oil, dirt and dead skin will help to prevent acne and blemishes from occurring. Using gentle exfoliating scrubs once or twice a week will also make a difference. Take care not to overwash your body as you can end up stripping too much natural oil away from the skin. - Wash Your Hair
Wash your hair regularly to keep the natural oils that occur in the hair from getting onto your back. Daily shampooing is recommended, but for some that has adverse effects on the health of their hair. If you cannot shampoo your hair each day tie it up to keep it from transferring oil onto your back. - Exfoliate the Skin
For a natural made scrub, squeeze one grapefruit into a bowl and add 1 1/2 cups of white sugar along with 1/2 a cup of coarse salt. Massage this into the acne on your back and pat dry. You can also use sponges or loofahs to help scrub off dead skin and remove excess oils. - Eat a Healthy Diet
Food may directly or indirectly cause back acne. A balanced diet, avoiding simple sugars, eating more fresh and raw vegetables, fruits and lean proteins can give your skin cells vitality and a healthy glow. - Keep Your Bedding Clean
Dead skin cells, oil and bacteria can rub off onto your bedding. Dirty bedding puts your skin at risk for acne. Be sure to wash your bedding once a week to ensure that you are sleeping in a clean - Reduce Stress
Like food, stress is a direct or indirect cause of back acne. Stress negatively affects your body’s hormone production. Your adrenal glands will produce more cortisol when stress levels rise which causes the sebaceous glands to secrete more oil. Meditation and exercise are two great stress-busters to incorporate into your lifestyle.
