Good day

I have been using the regiment for the past 3 years. I used to have bad case of acne on my back and especially the shoulders. I would get big bulgyred inflamed pimples that would just not go away. Some days they would not be so inflamed and some days extremelyinflamed. I have been battlingwith the back and shoulder acne basicallyall my life. About 4 years ago my derm put me on doxycycline which cleared my skin but my body developedresistanceto it after about a year and the acne came back with avengeance. The derm wanted to bump up the dosage bit I refused as I did not wanted to continue destroyingmy immunesystem for a temporary fix. So 3 year ago I found out about the regimentand started using it. Went troughall the usualphases (dry skin, scaling, acne getting worst in the beginningof the regiment). I stuck to it, applying BP twice a day and the AHA once a day and after 6 months my skin was cleared. I was exitedas I have been trying to find a solution for my acneproblem for years!! I have been followingthe regimentafter that religiously twice a day with BP application and once a day with AHA.Around 3 months ago I wanted to test how will my body will react if I will lower the usage rate to once a day, some days I didn't applied it at all and after about 2 months of that process my skin started to break out again. When I noticed that fact Istarted the regiment again and went back on the regiment applying it twice a day. Well, my acne came back with a vengeanceand basicallygotten as bad is it was before I started the regiment. Again the huge inflamedpimples as before I started to use the regiment. I would mention that for the last 2 monthsI went back on the regiment andusing it religiouslyagain. The acne is not as inflamed as before and starting to come down, althoughmy skinis far from being clear again but the inflammationgotten downand now the pimples are abig red scar (it happenedbefore as well when I firststarted using the regiment and with time the scars went away, especiallywith the use of AHA daily). Obviouslythis situation is stressingmy out and I want to get my clear skin back again

1. Has anyone had a similar experienceand if so, what was your solution forit and the results?

2. Can the acne developa resistanceto the BP with time? (maybe apply 5% BP insteadon the 2.5%)

3. Has anyone notices a formula change for the AHA? It used to be a lot ticker and now the last few bottles seems to me to be much more like a fluid.)

4. Any other informationthat you guys can share with me about this will be greatly appreciated (if you had a similar experience).

5. This is quite frustrating becauseI have alreadyachievedclean skin for years and I hope it came back just because I started to use the regiment less.

6. There have not been any major change to my diet, I do not take any medication and have been taking the same supplementfor years.

7. The only change I would mention is I stared to smoking avape instead of cigarettes(not sure if that could affect it somehow, been smoking for a while)

Thank you in advance and hope you guys can share more informationif you had a similarexperience.
