Have you been doing anything to try to stop the acne from coming? Diet change? Topicals?

I have tried antibiotics, topicals, and I am currently changing my diet. Do you have any other suggestions?

I was on antibiotics for about three months and it surprisingly kept me clear for 9 months. Sad thing is it was temporary because you build up an immunity to antibiotics that when the acne came back...the meds didn't work anymore. As far as diet goes, nothing changed for me so I eat normally and don't avoid any certain food in particular.

Topical treatment is where I saw the difference. I was on tretinoin for a while and though it did make acne go away a lot faster, it didn't stop it from coming. I currently do The Regimen. It is a 3 step process kinda like proactiv but this totally worked for me and my severe acne. It uses 2.5% benzoyl peroxide every day and night to keep me clear.

Did you have cystic acne?
