acne

my son continues to have a nasty break out through his entire face and we have tried every medication for acne yet it does not seem to go away and I'm wondering what else can be done

Hi. How old is your son? When you say you have tried everything, do you mean over the counter remedies or treatment on prescription? Shop-bought products are of limited use compared to what your doctor can prescribe and i would recommend a concurrent course of topical differin and oral tetracycline. If you have already tried this, has he taken accutane and how quick was his relapse? It is possible to take a second course of accutane if necessary. Loiloi x
