Hi,
I have moderate/sever acne and 1 month ago my dermatologist put me on a acne regimen.

A little bit about me:
I've had acne since 5th grade
I'm 17
Female

Medicines I've tried:
Clearasil
Proactiv
Clean and clear, and many more I cant remember

My regimen is:
Day:
Equate oil-free face wash
epiduo
moisturizer
2 capsules of amoxicillin

Night:
Moisturizing wash
Clenia
2 capsules of amoxicillin

So far its worked really well, lately i've experience a little bit of drying, and like any female with acne knows, even being on an acne regimen, when that "special time" of the month comes you might experience a breakout.

One thing I did notice, was that my acne type changed a little. They tell you that in the begining it might get worse before it gets better and thats what happened to me. I got these bumps on my face that look like boils (gross i know), but i went to the epiduo website (the one for the doctors ) and it said that it would go away.

I think this is a great regimen, with very effective creams. Hopfully in 2 months I'll be acne free.




p.s. has anyone thought about post acne skin resurfacing?
