Oh, I am so sorry to hear about your condition. I also have acne for several years, but i have controlled it a lot. I can understand your situation. Dont worry about your face be positive anddont take tension. Tension is the main cause of increasing acne.Be positive and take care of your eating habbits, andbe clean. Use clean towels and change your pillow covers once or twice a week.There's so much bacteria on them you really should to prevent new acne. So I tried these disposable pillows covers from this website [Edited link out] These ones are actually disposable so super easy! They also have product in them that improves the condition of your skin whilst you sleep. So along with medication proper care is also important. Take care.
