2. Topical treatments for body acne - Many topical body acne treatments will contain benzoyl peroxide. It is generally considered an effective treatment but its effectiveness will vary from person to person, and possibly even by areas of the body. Benzoyl peroxide is known as a "radical initiator".
However, the best treatment depends on how deep the pore blockage and the infection are. Isotretinoin (e.g. Accutane and Accure) is an oral prescriptive acne treatment that slows down the production of sebum, and therefore helps the condition to clear up. Antibiotics can help to clear up bacterial infections, and there are also a variety of creams and lotions than can effective clear up mild cases of back acne. Benzoyl peroxide (Oxy or Clearasil Max) can be effective on the back, but don't use it on your face, and an antibacterial soap can help to keep the surface of your skin clean and free from bacteria.
You can also try this infusion which uses a warm compress to open up the pores and rid it of trapped dirt and oil. Boil a quart of water in a pan and then remove it from the heat. Add a cup of dried thyme leaves and let it steep for 20 minutes. Let it cool down for a bit and soak a washcloth in the mixture. Wring the excess water from the washcloth and put it on your face for 15 minutes. Repeat if desired then remove the washcloth and apply an astringent.
