I don't visit this board much anymore because I "cured" my acne. Well you really can't cure it you just manage it. I went to the derm. and was prescribed doxycycline, yasmin, Klaron (topical antibiotic), and Differin. I used them religously like he said and going on 3 years now without acne. I do get one or two pimples every once in a while like everyone else but hardly ever. I exercise 5-6 days a week and I run so I sweat alot which is good for the skin. My advice is get a good dermatologist and follow their instructions. But you have to give treatment time to work. At least 2-3 months for most acne treatments. Hope I helped! :)
