I was constantly having new breakouts and as a 27 year old male, I started getting fed up with it. It destroyed my social life since I was 13. I never went on accutane because I didn't think my case was serious enough, even though it was bad enough to destroy my self confidence.

I never drank milk anyways because I don't like it, but I did always eat a ton of cheese, sour cream, etc. With my latest breakout, the worst one I've had in months, I started thinking back and realized I was eating way more cheese than usual. I never wanted to believe that dairy could be causing my acne, but I'm just tired of it so I decided to stop eating dairy.

No more cheese, no more sour cream, no more yogurt. After about a week my last breakout has gone away and healed up and such a fast rate that I'm surprised. I'm also noticing my face isn't as flakey/dry and my arms are getting smooth (have keratosis pilarsis). Could dairy cause this much damage? Anyone else have a similar experience.
