products, regimen, etc. from the Philippines post here

I'm from the Philippines and I just thought of starting this topic to help those with acne problems in the Philippines.

If you have any helpful tips, new products discovered, kindly share them all here.

what my derma prescribed (I'm from the Philippines)

I came across Dan's website just yesterday (April 5), a day after I consulted with a dermatologist. Too bad, I should have searched the web first because the treatment that the derma gave me will last for 6 sessions (~1.5 months). And it costs a whole lot of money!!! I agreed to the treatment because I cannot help but hate myself when I look into the mirror.

After a very painful poking and pricking treatment, the doctor gave me a lot of topical solutions, creams, and an antibiotic.

AM: clear soap, clarifying solution, dermisol solution (don't know what this one is exactly), cream with glycolic acid/AHA, sunblock if I'm going out.

PM: clear soap, clarifying solution, dermisol solution, 0.025% tretinoin

And twice a day, I take 50 mg minocycline/minocidin.
