My experience with the pill is opposite from Zenpunk's. I had mild acne before I started the pill (probably about 1 or 2 pimples on my face). I had always wanted to try the pill just to see if it would completely clear my skin, but I didn't end up using it until I needed it because I got married. I have been on the pill for exactly one year now and my face looks so horrible! I have so many scars and get new huge pimples every day that take their time to go away! I have been on Ortho Tri Cyclen Low, Loestrin, and now Demulen within the past year and my face is still a wreck! If I don't see any improvement soon then I am probably going to stop taking it. Some people think that I would have acne this bad with or without the pill, but I know its not true because my face clears up the week I am off it.

I guess I am just saying that birth control pills are different for everyone.... hopefully you will be lucky and it will clear your face up!

GOOD LUCK!!!
