Hey Irma, even if your blood tests didn't show anything "abnormal" about your hormones it is still possible that they are out of balance. Mine are completely out of balance but my recent blood tests a...

Update on Current Progress For any of you poor souls who are remotely interested! Dianette: End of week 4 (last day of placebo week was yesterday, woop!) Lymecycline: End of week 3 Epiduo: Day 9 ...

Sounds pretty similar to my life Rosalie! Hopefully it will improve for us both soon   I have made some limited progress on this issue today. No, I have not actually left my house as of yet but...

I'm not going to lie to you: your skin will most likely get a bit red, dry and irritated in the early stages of the Regimen. This can be mitigated relatively effectively with the use of a really good ...

Feeling slightly better today! It's stopped hurting now which probably helps. My face looks quite red with hyperpigmentation but it's all gone flat now with the exception of my forehead where I'm stil...

Hey,   I'm from the UK and did the Regimen with all products you can buy from the stores or Amazon UK. I used: Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser   Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion (both can be fo...

Good, I'm glad to have helped! There is some truth to the cliche "nothing worth having comes easy". I'm sure if you persevere with it you will get the results you want in the end. Stay positive!

Hey lizardanne, sorry to hear you're having such a tough time with the Regimen at the moment. Unfortunately this is one of those teething problems that everybody seems to get. I'm sure you're probably...

Pictures could help you to see the improvement! Because, to be honest, we're all sociopath here, we stare at our face in the mirror very very close, several times a day (or maybe I'm the only sociopat...

Hi, I'm also on birth control and my skin/acne problems sound very similar to yours! Although I know we're all going through tough times with our skin it's actually nice to be able to relate to people...

It is 5:15am UK time and I have not slept a wink all night. I have to go to work today but after a nightmare CBT session yesterday (see the below link to a post I posted yesterday), I just want to cur...

Also just wondering, my skin loves Cetaphil for at night or when I'm not going out in the sun during the day, but does anyone also have any recommendation for a moisturiser with spf that doesn't break...

Have you tried Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion? It gives quite heavy moisturisation but has never caused me any problems with breakouts. It can look a bit shiny for using during the day but is great for ...

Thanks real maverick! All working fine now

I've never tried the acne.org products because getting them shipped to the UK is way too expensive. I used drugstore products and it worked for me. You just have to be careful about what you buy and t...

Yeah, they tend to stick with a few antibiotics for acne like keflex, erythromycin, and tetracyclines. But, it still promotes resistance. If they work for a few years, go for it. I don't think you're...

A lot of doctors are comfortable prescribing them indefinitely. That said, it's not a great idea for society overall, because the overuse of antibiotics promotes antibiotic resistance. Thanks! They'...

Hey, sorry I haven't checked on this thread in a while and wanted to reply to you all so this is going to be one massive long post! So an update to just provide an example of how difficult it is to...

Thanks for the replies guys Obviously a glitch. Hope they can get it fixed soon!

Once you stop taking antibiotics, it will come back. Hey Richard, you don't happen to know how long doctors are generally happy to prescribe you antibiotics for acne do you?

Unfortunately people can be quite judgmental about other people's appearances, including (but not exclusively) when people have acne. Most of the time I think comes from ignorance and a lack of unders...

  Well I was feeling more positive for most of the day. My skin is clearing up a bit with all the treatments I'm using and getting flatter and smoother everyday but it still looks absolutel...

Hello, Today all the buttons that usually run along the top of my screen including the New Content, Messages, and Notifications buttons seem to have mysteriously disappeared. I was just wondering if...
