Hi, this is my first post so I don't really know what I'm doing lol. I'm 14 and I just got prescribed Epiduo by my dr today. I was actually on it two years ago for a short time but I stopped because my face was burning and peeling so bad.

My face isn't really bad, I get the occasional pimple or two on my cheeks/chin. My nose has tons of blackheads, though, and my forehead has a lot of little bumps that you can only see up close (but they're still visible sometimes).

How bad will the "initial breakout" stage be? I start school on August 22nd and I reeaaalllyy want my face to be clear and free of burning and peeling by then. I'm starting Epiduo soon as I can (within a few days) but I'm rely scared about breaking out really badly. Will it be worth it in the long run even though my face isn't that bad?
