    Spotty sorts should console themselves that bad skin is linked with high testosterone levels. Once you are old and past it and your appearance hardly matters anyway your skin will clear entirely. Another example of the applicability of sod's law in biology.

    Itchy scales are a bit of a bugger though.
    Do you shed your entire skin every six months or so?

    Agreed. Your diet has great influence on this problem. Avoid fatty food and refrain from milk.
    Also: avoid standard soaps, they are too agressive. Use dermato soaps or baby soaps (!)

    What a great thread on a contractor forum!

    In extreme cases they used to use a technique callled dermal abrasion. They basically take an orbital sander to your face and remove a couple of layers of skin, along with the zits.

    Funny, I was told that hormones were the problem when I was a PFY.

    Ahh, the quack cures for acne. I remember taking extract of hedgerow, ginger and garlic. Didn't work then, unlikely to work today.

    It was then that I discovered that doctors are not infalliable.
