bubblewraps: Skin treatment or home remedies to bring acne to the surface of the skin?
I have PCOS so I suffer from acne. Sometimes my skin becomes clearer after I had my period, but the problem is that, even if it’s clear, there still are some trapped underneath the surface. Sometimes I’m tempted to squeeze them out but I don’t like the scar it leaves. Can you recommend some home remedies or over-the-counter products for this? I prefer home remedies, though, because I’m still a student and I can’t afford too pricey stuff.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I also have PCOS and had acne starting pretty young. The breakouts are probably due to the hormone imbalance. I noticed improvement with medications to lower testosterone. When I couldn’t afford the meds I used saw palmetto, but not sure if that helped too much. One product I think has totally helped is salicylic acid at home chemical peels (they are not as bad as they sound). It is amazing! After a few uses, there was noticeable improvement. I get mine on Amazon for around $ 18, but it last a long time and is worth it.
