Hi there,

I am looking for some advice on how best I should tackle my Acne.

For the last year I have spend 100s of pounds on creams to fight it and really found no reward. My Acne is still pretty mild, not really bad though.

I am 20 and currently using a dermologica face wash and revitol acne tablets along with a acne cream, my diet is good and drink plenty of water.

What is the best thing to do to get rid of this as I feel I am running out of options? There are plenty of creams etc online but most of them will harm your skin more than resolve your problems.

Any guidance will be appreciated please.

Thanks
Robert

Ask your dermatologist about Accutane. It has some nasty side effects, but it damn sure works.

Accutane is a good,but I was told it would take care of the acne forever,however mine came back in about 8 months.It is also not the most pleasant medication to be on as it dries the hell out of your lips.If you do go that route though the results are great,and I found that aquaphor works well to keep the lips in good shape.
I also have had tons of creams from my doctor,and never really knew what worked so I recently got rid of them and just started using clean and clear face wash with 10% benzolperoxide and then putting 10% benzolperoxide on the visible zits.dries up your face,but just throw some lotion on in the AM and you will be fine.Hope this helps.

For acne i would highly recommend DDF Sulfur Therapeutic Mask. Sulfur is the next step up from benzolperoxide, yet this mask is good to use on your whole face or overnight spot treatment. Just make sure to use moisturizer because it can be a little drying. You can even purchase online from sephora or drugstore.com.
