I haven't updated in a while, mostly because this treatment means I barely even think about my skin anymore! I am so happy! I've been taking this treatment for a bit over 3 months now and my skin is c...

Hi, yep I think I'd agree. When my skin is bad I would trade anything for it to be clear, but i'm sure if I had serious health problems I'd feel differently! I've been taking large doses of Vitamin B...

Hi everyone! I've been thinking a lot about this recently: how much health would I sacrifice to have perfectly clear skin? We all know that a lot of acne treatments have side effects but yet take the...

Almost 2 months since starting B5, and I'm really beginning to get my hopes up! I've had only 3 spots since my last update over 2 weeks ago, and my skin has just been generally pretty good for the las...

5 and a half weeks on B5! Still taking 6g B5, 500mg L-Carnitine and 600mg L-Cysteine + a zinc supplement each day. The breakout from my last update has cleared and my skin is looking pretty good, only...

When I was on Accutane my skin was awful all the way to the middle of month 5, at which point it started to clear really quickly and was almost perfect by the end of month 6. Just hang in there and ho...

Hello! 1 month since I started B5. I have had a small breakout this week but nothing crazy and it seems to be clearing quickly. I still think my skin tone looks healthier and again, not a huge lot of ...

Ahh my skin used to always do that before appointments, annoying! That's great about your appointment though! Good luck, really hope it works for you

Quick update! I've been using Vit B5 for just over 3 weeks now, and my skin is actually looking really good. I haven't had any new spots in about 4 days. However my skin does do this from time to time...

I second Jojoba oil, that's what I used for my flaky skin when I was trying the Regimen.

I don't want to try and worry you, but my skin was awful on Microgynon. I went back and saw a different doctor, and he said I should never have been put on it with my skin problems as it is known to j...

Hey! My experience may be slightly different as I went to a private dermatologist first and then moved to NHS from there, but could give you an idea! My derm agreed to prescribe me roaccutane on the f...

I'm currently trying the Vitamin B5 method. A lot of people have said it has been amazing for them! I don't want to recommend to anyone to megadose on vitamins, but maybe it is something you want to r...

No, L-Carnitine isn't an ingredient of Vilantae (I don't think!) and so I wasn't taking any. Maybe that will give it the push it needs now!

Dianette didn't do much for me either! I would have gone straight back on Accutane if I could but because I was 18 my doctor said she didn't want to risk a second course so soon when I was so young. N...

I know how you feel, my acne also returned after stopping Accutane and it is devastating As you mentioned you only get them around your chin and mouth area, it sounds like it could be hormonal... Hav...

Thanks! Been on this for just under 2 weeks and currently not seeing much of a different, either positive or negative. Will update again in a week or so! Also, just to note, when I was 17 (which was w...

Hi Guys! A bit of background: I'm a 22 year old female, and have suffered from acne since the age of around 12. I have tried pretty much every over the counter and prescription topical treatments av...

Has anybody used both acne.org's products and shop bought products and so is able to compare them? I'm coming to the end of my first acne.org set and have noticed amazing results, but due to the cost ...

It depends on the person but unfortunately it's unlikely. It took me 6 months to get clear. Fingers crossed for you though!

I was on Dianette and it didn't help my skin at all, but I have been on accutane. I'm not sure where you're living, but like LaurenHolt above has mentioned, it is very difficult to get in the UK. You...

sufferingwithacne- good luck with your regimen! I was very skeptical when starting it because so many things have failed but i'm so happy I tried it. I have my fingers crossed it works for you! AyeAy...

Hey guys, I've been on the regimen for almost 4 weeks and my skin is already clear! This is a miracle for me as I have literally tried everything (antibiotics, hormones, topicals) and was even on accu...

Hey guys, yes the flakiness is SO annoying but I agree with everyone else, stick with it as it will be worth it! I haven't been on the regimen long but it's already hugely improved my skin. For the d...

Worst was when I was 17-18 (2010/11) when my face was covered in cysts for about a year. I'd had acne before but never as severe and just hated even leaving my bedroom. Horrible time. My best skin wa...
