Acne can be cured completely - its called Accutane.

In some places, Accutane is no longer available. However, a generic version may be available - you need to discuss your options with a Dermatologist.

Exercise is absolutely not going to help - excess sweat, and sebum equals clogged pores, black heads and pimples.

Exercise is great - we should all do it. But not to stop break outs.

Stress is related to more breakouts, and since exercising can reduce mental stress it may have a benefitial effect in terms of reducing breakouts for some people?

Little OT rant:

There are so many "natural" & DIY anti-acne tipps/treatments out there, from things that don´t have anything to do with the reduction of the acne-bacteria, inflammation, sebum production (like "drink more water") to the many homemade masks that are supposed to clear your skin and get rid of acne scars 

It is well known why acne appears (especially teenage acne), what happens in the skin when someone has acne and what is proven to work as a treatment. The info is out there, so are dermatologists who have years of experience in the treatment of acne....soooo why do we still hold onto all those acne "tipps" that don´t do any harm but mostly waste your time if you have true acne and not just a few pimples?

Really helpful. All the tips you have shared are really good.  Drinking plenty of water and use of Aloe Vera helps a lot to get rid of the acne problem.
