I know that hearing it doesn't always mean much, because how a person feels about acne is so personal to their own situation.. but your acne compared to a lot of peoples is not bad or 'extreme' by comparisons standard. I just thought I had to share that first of all~ As for treatments, you could consider using 2.5% benzoyl peroxide morning and night (like the regime suggests), I'm not sure how this would work with the antibiotics you're taking, but there's plenty of treatments that could supplement it if it doesn't give you the desired results. I really hope you work past the superficial part of acne and can work things out for you and your son. You as a person are much more than just acne! (:
are you using the regimen? I would use that to clear up your acne and I would try to drink a lot of water alongside to get skin tone more even. your acne isn't that bad, but I know the toll acne takes on your self esteem. just remember like the above person said you are more than just acne!!
