vick vaporub? ummmm....no? :/ i dont see how it would help. why dont u go to a dermatologist for the spots? they'd probably prescribe something. what do u mean by spots anyway? raised pimples or acne pigmentation or freckles???what? they're all treated differently.

hiya

its acne, which i should have got in my teenage years but i didnt instead i get the acne in my twenties. its so frustrating.

Re: is vicks vapour rup good for spots?

try a benzoyl peroxide cream to treat the acne and retin A (at night) to get rid of the marks. you also have to wear a sunblock when out in the sun. you need a prescription from a dermatologist to get retin A. use a good cleanser and moisturizer that wont dry out your skin or aggravate the acne. not to repeat myself but with any serious skin condition like acne the best thing is to go to a dermatologist than treat it yourself because you might make it worse by using the wrong stuff.

Re: is vicks vapour rup good for spots?

Agree with shweetdreamz, Benzoyl peroxide is the best thing to use along with retin or a gycolic acid cleanser or a peel mask to get rid of any scars. While the BP will kill the bacterial, the glycolic acid cleaner helps to remove dead skin cells and encourages skin renewal to get rid of scars etc. You may have to pay abit extra to invest in a good glycolic cleanser.

Rub a tomato slice on your face for a week each day & then rub lemon juice on your spots another week. Use alternatingly and you should see great results. :)
