I'm feeling special at 43.

I'm 26, about to be 27 at the end of this month. Just finished 'tane, so I'm not currently acnefied, but there's always the chance that it will come back. So, I consider myself still an ance battler.

I'm 27 but look much younger....so the acne makes me look like a high-school kid, which you would think might be nice...but no...it's really annoying! hehe Getting carded is even worse because I used to have clear skin and my ID looks nothing like me anymore

I'm 29. I wish my acne hadn't just come back with a vengeance after 4 years of nearly acne-free bliss. It's been like a stealth attack, out of nowhere, suddenly it is all over my face.Thank God for this site...it is the best. You guys are the best - reading all these posts, I finally feel comforted, like I'm not the only one dealing with this...which is that it sometimes feels like, walking around...why does EVERYONE seem to have clear skin?

39 !

I'm 24. I never knew that acne could continue after puberty until I started reading on these boards. Finally I realized this is something I will never grow out of and I need to take action and get my life back again!

just turned 26 feb 24

Twenty-five, my acne started around age twenty-two or so. I never had probs in high school. At least not enough to warrant the concern I have now. Blah.

I'm 25 years old, had acne in varying intensities since my late teens. Usually pretty mild, but sometimes moderate and I have had some slight cystic acne as well. Currently taking Bactrim, Duac and Finacea. I haven't had an lesions appearing in about a month, so I am hopeful that I will be able to get off the Bactrim soon.

I hate acne so much. I keep hoping I will grow out of it eventually. I eat right, I exercise, and I rarely if ever miss doses of my medications.

21. mild/moderate acne

I might as well put myself in for 41. I will be in 4 days anyway.

I am, um, 30. Ugh!!!

25 going on 26 in June

ahh im 18, didnt think about us did ya

Hi BettyBoop,

I am 47, was on accutane 3 times and not sure if I should try it again. It helps for a while, but then it comes back. I keep thinking that this will go away. Have you always had continual break outs, or do they come and go? I had a long period of time with no break outs, and now they are back again. I am thinking of using BC pills because they helped in the past.

I am also checking into Fraxel for my rolling scars.

Don't want to upset anyone, but I'm going to be 60 next fall. It came back, and I'm on accutane again....

25 here, Sometimes I think I'm still a teenager as I'm still dealing with teen problems such as our common problem in here known as acne.

We need a cure for this acne problem sometime before 2020

Nobody likes you when you're 23
