I am a 23 year old male. I have had acne since I was 13. I was on Benzaclin for a good 2 years and then it stopped working. I had a full blown acne attack on my chest and face over the summer. I have severe cystic acne. I went to Dr. Jerald Sklar who is the best dermatologist in Dallas TX. He prescribed me Differin, Dorryx, Clindamycin. I use differin and take the Dorryx pill at night and apply clindamycin in the morning. I have been following this treatment religiously for one month now. I see some improvements on my face but not on my chest. Anybody know how long it will take until all of the acne clears up???

you know i still get breakouts on my chest all the time but i know that mine are related to working out. i even shower right after i am done and rinse with cool water and have tried various washes and scrubs but nothing works. if you ever figure it out let me know.

Looks like you have strong bacteria that became immune to Benzaclyn in two years. I would say look for other options instead of more antibiotics because the same thing may happen again.
