Extremely greasy skin

Hello

I have had this problem with greasy skin for a long time, 10 years plus. After washing, about 1 hour later there is a 'sheen' on my face as my skin becomes greasy. This is nowhere else apart from my face. I was prescribed a course of roaccutane which i stopped when i read about the side effects. My face is also red not to a great extent compared to the rest of my body skin colour. I am 34 and otherwise in good health. I did have severe acne and still get the occasional outbreak.
Can anyone suggest a treatment?

All the best

repeat this dose set after every 7 days.

Hi rishimba

Thanks for this. Does your reply mean take the dose everyday for 1 week, then take a week off and repeat the dosage??

Can you please clarify.

Best regards

just 3 doses on any one day of the week, lets say - sunday. then wait for next sunday and then take 3 doses if necessary.

hi chahat. im a 49 yr.old female with extemely oily (that soon turns greasy) skin. ive been to every derm. in my area with no results. ive been prescribed nearly every med. invented for acne. ive found that washing with 'Joy' dishsoap is the only soap that cleans most of the waxy grease off, and then i cleanse even more with rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball (the cotton ball is even filthy!) i only use a oil-free face powder for make-up and i use sheets of tissue paper (gift wrapping kind) to press onto my whole face to absorb the oil before i get into public view. i know how you feel... this 'disease' is absolutely devastating. without the oil, we wouldnt be breaking out. ive tried a product i found on the web called Evolution X that is supposed to reduce the amount of oil your glands produce (its mega doses of B-5) it hasnt worked yet but i have 30 more days to finish the course. my skin has for the past 3 yrs developed yet another embarrassing characteristic-it smells sour, like vinegar and later in the day will take on a foul putrid scent which in turn causes even more anxiety & perspiration.(it could be the 'grease' oxidating and going rancid)
