An update... several months later and Diane is still working. This month I had a few small spots show up, one on my cheek and a couple on my jawline. All very small and went away quickly without devel...

I can speak from experience that the brand, Makeup Artist's Choice has very good products. I have used lactic acid on my skin and have "moved up" to glycolic acid. After a while of using lactic acid ...

@MoonlitRiver Hopefully this is just a minor setback, a random thing. Don't lose lose all hope!

Thank you

Oh, ok. For privacy reasons.

pretty please?

Third Week of Pack Four "Ovulation week" has come and gone and I had no breakouts! Let's hope reporting early doesn't jinx the rest of the month. Anyway, I'd say Diane is definitely working for me. I...

Well I started with lactic acid at 40 percent. This was gentle enough for my sensitive skin while still making an impact on my skin. So, it did exfoliate but didn't burn my skin off. I'd start with so...

glycolic acid or lactic acid are both amazing. my face was covered in very red marks and they are all quite faded now and many gone entirely after using these acids in the form of chemical peels done ...

Well if it helps, I've been on it nearly 6 weeks now and my skin *touch wood* hasn't been breaking out. I'm hoping this is a good sign because on Sertraline I was already getting massive cysts by this...

Mental health side of things is still absolutely abysmal and I've taken to barricading myself in my room and curling up in bed for hours on end whenever I feel that suicidal state come on because what...

Hi! I take diane35 and it's worked wonderfully for me. I was on an antibiotic as well but I've tapered off it and I'm still clear. I hope you have similar luck

End of Pack Three The ovulation spot is mostly just a scabby thing now. It'd probably be gone now if I hadn't picked it. One tiny tiny whitehead on my jaw and a suspicious under-skin bump on my fore...

Spotthedifference, your advice is always appreciated and I think that's a great way to constructively build your confidence up to a level you're comfortable with. Goes back to that old saying "fake it...

There's places online you can buy your own kits, rather than paying for one session at a spa or something. If you wanted to use one, go for a light concentration first of course, like maybe 40% lactic...

Hey! Chemical peels are meant to be good for fine line wrinkles... and I have heard that some believe certain things in glycolic acid (or lactic acid, I'm not sure) may stimulate collagen production....

Heitea, all the best with your new career and a happy marriage. It's wonderful that you've found your way to clear skin!

Hey MoonlitRiver! Dunno if this matters anymore since you've probably been on this drug for a while now and know what it's doing to your body. But, I wanted to say that I have started taking it. I'm ...

Could a mod delete all of my topics (with the exception of my latest one.. My Diane35 Diary). Thanks

I like MUAC peels. They're easy and inexpensive for what you get (a trial size is enough to last for a few months). Spot treating with the acid only on the red marks seems to be the most effective f...

Hi! I had super bad breakouts over the summer... spots upon spots upon spots, cystic ones too. I was left with very bad very red marks after this. I've been more or less clear for about 4 months now ...

Awesome! I'm happy for you

Do you have any before and after photos? I am thinking of starting Dianette as well. Before and after pictures from the first time I took this pill would probably show what it does for me better tha...

Don't worry about it, things seem to be much better now and over time they will be even better! Btw, i too love B'Elanna. Hi Maria, thanks for your comment THings are totally better, spots are def...

Third Month, beginning of week two. Stress/ovulatory spot on my right cheek right in the centre. And a healing one from around Christmastime from hormones/terrible diet. We're not out of the woods ye...
