    Hey guys I have had acne off and on, I am a teenager. I have got a medical marijuana card for some other pain issues and I am wondering if cannabinoids can help with acne? I know they have many many wonderful healing benefits and I think they may be able to be helpful towards acne, what are your ideas?

    Thanks!

    I get them too, oddly enough it is for healthy foods, and my face has slowly been improving.

    Would you suggest a CBD cream or a THC cream?

    Dunno but when I used
    To
    Smoke a shitload my skin was clear now I have backne and my ass looks like...anyway maybe it was the stress?

    I'd suggest smoking it for acne, any kind of haze will work well

    (Absolutely no science or reason here, justly 2c)

    Good luck

    my high school self wanted me to tell you NO IT DOESN'T WORK!!

    maybe a cream though? never heard of it being used that way...

    try a benzoyl peroxide wash, it worked the best when I had bad acne and I still use it as my face wash today.

    Unfortunately everyones face reacts differently, to creams, or whatever, I tried from aloe plants and it didnt help. It may help you
    Now I know cig smoke clogs up your pores in the face and can cause you to break out, knowing this I'd hotbox less with weed regardless. My face gets oily easily and that does not help.
    Remember to wash your face morning and night, tons of water, hygiene, blah blah blah

    @Grendelking I realize that I need to be 18, and I am :) . Still a teenager. I'd like to keep this thread on topic if possible.

    I've added cannabis wax to tree tea oil and it helps make it far less harsh, if you were to add that to your regiment - it really depends if you've had experience with tea tree, I guess... It used to dry my skin out really badly, but with the wax added, it doesn't completely dry out, but works well on the acne... Watered down cotton ball with a drop or two does well on the face or body (always more diluted on the face!)
     
    Using a high quality cannalotion will help with healing and scarring of old acne ( I use Cannalgesic on my face without problems) 
     
    I really think that face products are the next step of mmj products, and I hope cannabis can help you more!

    Awesome! I'm totally going to try that, I have been putting a THC infused cream on my face and it seems to be healing it really nice. I'm excited. My acne isn't that bad but it should do the trick.

    I have been vaporizing cannabis, and also using edibles and my skin is slowly improving. I really hope this works long term.

    IMO the best option is eating right, exercising, going outside, etc. for acne, but you can try and infuse a little bit of RSO into your face creams and give it a shot. If you stay inside and eat chips all day you're going to get acne no matter what.

    Just glue weed to your face so no one sees the acne. It's what smart trolls do.
