This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Type Acne into the search box on every page and read the many cases cured by Arnica 6c in the Wet dose.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for replying, I have been reading the past posts.
From what I understand, I need to get 6c Arnica Montana and dissolve three of the tablets into 500ml of spring water and then shake it to dissolve. I should then refrigerate the bottle and take three teaspoons daily. And each time, I should shake the bottle before taking a dose.
Is this correct? And does the arnica come in tablet or liquid form. If it is a liquid then should i dissolve three drops rather than three tablets?
Thanks,
Harry (hdizzy)

I have since modified the manner of making the Wet dose of any remedy in the light of reports from patients and shall copy the new instructions below.
The Wet dose of any Homeopathic remedy is made as follows:
Order the remedy in a 5ml Ethanol pack also referred to as Liquid Dilution in a bottle preferably with a dropper arrangement.
Get a 500ml bottle of Spring Water from the nearest supermarket.
Pour out about 3cm of water from the bottle to leave some airspace.
Insert 3 drops of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard before you sip a capfull of the bottle or a large teaspoonful which is the dose.
Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succussion and this shaking must be done every time before sipping a capful of the bottle twice daily.
In the case of Acne, I have found that the applicaiton of the remedy water on the lesions directly with the finger tips also helps the healing process.

Thanks Joe,
I am 22 and male and have suffered from facial acne for years. Only oral antibiotics worked but it was never a long term solution.
Unfortunately, I cannot get arnica in an ethanol pack here in England. I have looked all over the web for somewhere in England but they only come in pill form. 6C pills and 30C pills. Can i use the pill form instead?
Thanks,
Harry

I think everyone's remedy will not be the same and it seems skin issues can be tricky.
I had recurrent tender acne on my throat and chin. Graphites 12 C was recommended but it didn't do anything for skin or accompanying digestive issues. Then, Graphites 1M. Still nothing. I found success afterwards with Carb Sulph. It did not clear ALL of skin afflications but it did many and the acne did go away and hasn't come back. It's been over two years. I don't know if it's prescribed much for chronic skin ailments, but it worked for me. Perhaps you have a entirely different constitution.

Thanks Danielle,
Thank for you post! This is exactly why I started this new thread. I want people to share their experiences with homeopathic remedies for acne. I completely agree, everyone is different and probably require different remedies, and i find it fascinating to hear what people have used and whether it worked. Did you go to see a practitioner who allocated these remedies or did you just try them out yourself from your own research?
Thanks,
Harry :-)

Graphites was recommended buy an instructor at a homeopathic school here. I think a lot of people have had success with it. When it wasn't working, I did loads of my own research including on here and came up with this remedy. When I read the Graphites profile, I was pretty surprised that it was recommended cause it does not fit me. Although I do most of the time take on the skin phase of disorders...practically everything shows up on my face.
I am sure I will get fingers wagged toward me for taking this on myself, but I am content that it did work.

brilliant, thanks for the info. So glad something worked for you!
I have currently had one session with a homeopathic doctor that lives local to me, he has given me two different types of pellets to take morning and evening. Unfortunately, i do not know what they are called because i did not ask. It was a one hour consultation and he asked about all aspects of my life. He then made up these remedies where he poured some liquid over some pellets and gave them to me in two bottles. I wish i knew what they were!
Its been one week and 2 days and there's been no change. I have another appointment in 2 weeks (he wants to see me every 3 weeks). I will ask him then what these were called.
I just hope something works because acne is a nightmare!
Thanks again for sharing!

Hi, You could just call him and ask. I ask a lot of questions of all clinical people I have seen! lol. It's my body!
If you have had the acne for a long time, it isn't going to clear up overnight I doubt. The homeopath may even want you to follow up with something depending on how complex the problem is and what else is going on etc. Some people, like myself, whenever they have any organ not performing to it's best, it shows up on the skin, so the root of the problem has to be found and cured. I find Yin Yoga so helpful for this too.
I still have some scars from my acne and was considering trying CALC FLUOR for it, but at the moment I am treating flu-ish, infection issues and need to stick to that regimen. Glad you started this thread as I am going to be watching to see what has worked for others. Acne is a pain and it is just so different for everyone. I was truly elated to find mine go away!

Homeopathy is the permanent cure for acne, pimples, etc., and all skin conditions.
I've cured acne in people with homeopathic anti-psoric remedies in many, many cases. I've cured acne, pimples, blackheads, etc. with remedies such as Ars., Nat-M, Sep., Sulph., Lyc., Calc., and so many more.
I just had a patient with terrible acne and back acne that cleared up very well on Ars. Another patient with acne and blackheads that cleared quickly with Sulph.

Yeah Daneielle, I perhaps need to be patient with it. Ive probably made it worse over the years with anti-biotics etc. I guess it may take a while to go away.
Thanks Jewish Homeopath, glad to hear you have helped many people. It gives me some hope that I will get cured with this homeopathic route.
I think sometime the problem may be finding a good homeopathic doctor. Maybe some are better than others. Or maybe some are better at curing some ailments rather than others. Im in the U.K, in East London, there are a few in the area. I think the best way to find one is through word of mouth. I found mine on the internet as he had a website. There are plenty of before and after pictures (mainly of people suffering from hair loss) and they look amazing. But there are not any acne pictures. This is what i mean about some practitioners perhaps being better at curing some problems (like hairloss) rather than other (like skin disorders)
But I will keep with it and see! Maybe I have a good one, I will see.
This is the first time ive ever tried homeopathy. The best way for me to find out whether it works is to try it and thats what im doing, so hopefully il be able to report back some positive things soon.
And please, people who are reading this topic, post your acne stories if you have any!

You can mail order Arnica in the 87% Ethanol pack from the manufacturers in the UK listed below:
Ainsworth

Boiron

Hahnemann Laboratories

Helios

As I stated in my previous post, the pellets can be used but I have since found that the remedy in Ethanol is by far more effective in curing the ailment. You will only use 3 drops in a 500ml bottle of water to activate the remedy which you can use for a few months.
