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!

Right now though I have found something of a miracle in Bruunhause Acne Gel. It's the only thing I've ever used that has made my skin improve day-to-day. It's the only topical treatment that penetrates the pore and eliminates the bacteria on the site so it works on-contact. It feels really good and you can feel it working down to the pore. The first time you try it it's like nothing you've ever felt. It's expensive, but online they have it for sale for about 107 bucks. It's worth it. It should last about 2 months or more.

Almostclear, how are you getting on now with the Bruunhause? Also did you start Acnexus?
