Acne Question?

I guess this question is for about some of the topic's
I just started taking Tri-sprintec it says it helps with acne but I see a slight inprovement
but I still get some zits and blackheads I can feel these tiny bumps all over my face I
wash my face twice a day but the medication's I have bought just don't seem to help
it either makes my face worse or really red and it hurts really bad I have bought several
of these kits that are out and spent over 100.00 in products im tired of spending my money
on stuff that just don't work .
Is there anything out there that you would recommend me trying
that will work ?

Thank you

Hi. Over the counter products are of limited use for anything more than occasional mild acne. As you have found they dry the skin out causing irritation and redness.
Talk to your doctor about more effective treatments. Changing to an anti-androgen birth control pill called Diane35 will help. Other good treatments include oral antibiotics like Oxytetracycline, or topical gels such as Duac, Differin or Dalacin.

Acne haunts me for years and I have been trying several ways to cure my acne problems.

Oral antibiotics for acne work very well. But when you stopped taking, you will have sudden outbreak. Long term medication is not the solution to the root problem.

I tried facial and chemical peeling. Condition did not improve much. Worst still, the treatment is too harsh on my skin and it weaken my skin barrier =(
Acne takes even longer time to heal.

Now i am using this product that is recommended by my friend. Within one week, I could see that the acne drying up. Overall my face appear less red and with less zits popping up. You can email me at ***@**** if you wish to know more details.
