Re: acne...
When I hit my mid 20s this happened to me....I did everything! I was even on the antibiotics..... it kind of just stopped on its own...but it take some time. See your dermatologist... I did get a lot of facials from my derma. office and that seemed to really help along with some creams they prescribed.

Have you tried Proativ? I never had acne before I left NY, but then I broke out a ton. I used Proactiv and it cleared me up. Now FH uses it and its really helping him too. Sorry you are having skin issues...those suck!!!

Re: acne...
if you go to your dermatologist you can get a shot that will help clear up your face in a few days and a rx to apply to your acne.

yea proactiv works.. my sister uses it... they have something out like it called acne free i think it's orange and white i saw it at CVS, and they compare it to proactiv... i dunno how good it is.. but i think it's a little cheaper, and i see it advertised.. hope that helps

Sometimes a cause of that is stress or the change in weather...I have heard of Pro Active really helping some of my friends

Re: acne...
Heres my story...
NO pimples through my teens and in highschool..
got into my 20s and they arrived. One product that worked wonders-Mario Badescu-cleared me up within 2 weeks; i still get occasional break outs but it clears everything up

Re: acne...
I would see a dermatologist if I were you. Its not bad that you havent been to one, but you really should go once a year to have them check your skin. I went for a rash and they found a bad mole which they cut out and sent off for testing. It turns out the mole was really bad (dont know exactly what it was called) and I had to come in and make sure they got the rest of it out. Well they cut me up and i got three stitches in my leg. The doctor said that if I let it go, it could have turned into cancer.
My mom works at one and the doctor is super nice. He has offices in Levittown and Oceanside. If you want his info just let me know

Re: acne...
Has anything changed? Your eating habits perhaps? Sometimes, it could be something as simple as you are eating too many carbs, or too much sugar...
and sometimes it can be from stress...
either way I would go to the dermatoligist to make sure....
