This is not really an emotional effect of acne, but I noticed that the people on this topic are the most supportive and seem to reply the fastest. With that being said, I need some advice. I am curren...

Update: End of week 5. Well, I guess it was too good to be true. I am now starting to get an initial breakout. 4 new pimples on one side of my face and 2 large cysts on the other. I knew it wouldn't l...

I was on the regimen for 4 months and it cleared me up pretty well. I quit because it made me have terrible terrible terrible dark marks, worse than I have ever had in my life. Plus it was getting ver...

Update: Week 5. Skin is looking clearer than ever. I was at a camp for the weekend so I missed putting it on for 2 nights. I think that actually might've been good though....gave my skin a break. I ho...

Fun fact. Most attraction is based on attitude and confidence......just be comfortable. Think to yourself "I'm just fucking awesome". Because its true.   Yeah just be confident and be the per...

I need some quick help guys. I have a long distance girlfriend and I haven't seen her in over 2 months. Last time she saw me, my skin was pretty clear, not perfect though. She didn't seem to care then...

What do you guys think of antibiotics along with retin-a? It seems to be making the initial breakout not as bad. Are there any possible bad effects of taking them?

My skin broke out after 2 weeks I think. The first few days my skin became really nice and then the purging began its still going on but its calming down a bit. I think because your also on an antibi...

I really think acne has changed me for the better. I used to be a douchebag, jerk, player, whatever you want to call it. I was so mean to people and would use alot of girls. I started getting bad acne...

Update: mid-week 3. Skin is slowly getting better. I don't think the initial breakout is going to be bad because of minocycline. Again, I really hope it doesn't come back after I get off of antibiotic...

Wow, truly inspiring. I am on week 3 as of now. Skin isn't the best but it isn't too bad. This just gave me alot of hope

Update: Beginning of week 3. I am starting to see maybe what is now an initial breakout. Three new pimples on one side of my face and 1 under my nose. I really hope it doesn't get too bad because I ha...

I had the same problem. Now I'm on tretinoin cream and it seems to be working alright.   How long did it take for the marks to start fading after you stopped using BP?   Well I'm not ex...

I had the same problem. Now I'm on tretinoin cream and it seems to be working alright.

Update: I'm approaching week 3 and still no initial breakout. Do you think this stuff is even working or is it just the minocycline?

Thank God! I have started breaking out on my chin a little but nothing too significant. Yea you're probably right. This week is homecoming week and I'm having a lot of fun!

Hey guys! I've been using .05% tretinoin cream for about 2 weeks now and have seen great results! I haven't seen an initial breakout yet but I fear it may be coming... Anyways I tried the acne.org ...

What do you think is wrong with antibiotics?

I'm using retin-a and antibiotics as of now. Almost all the pimples are gone and I don't have to worry about red marks.

I did the regimen for 11 weeks and have a story similar to yours. All of my acne disappeared, but it didn't look like it. The red marks were so bad one night i just looked in the mirror and broke dow...

I don't know how to get rid of it, i tried benzoyl peroxide but it just makes my dark mark last forever. not worth it

Not too good, everything was going well in school but then some jerk asked me if I have aids. What a prick. I hate my life.
