★★★★☆
At first I was following my dermatologist's recommendations. She had me on five different products which only slightly reduced the condition, but left me feeling desperate for something better.
After extensive research I removed all Sodium Lauryl Sulfate products from my house, tried yogurt masks, cutting out dairy, cutting out gluten, and using apple cider vinegar. Honestly none of those solutions solved the problem.
I have seen the most success through ingesting probiotics. I prefer a probiotic smoothie offered at most health stores. My POD is not cured, but it is the best it has ever looked. I believe my POD is a result of leaky gut syndrome thus probiotics help with digestion.
I agree with what others have said about taking POD as a karmic lession. I am no longer as conceited about my looks, judgmental of those with acne, and worried about what others think of my apperance. Take it in stride people! Hopefully it won't last forever and will not scar my face. Good luck to you all and I hope you too will be blessed with clear skin once again.
