Try cutting certain things out of your diet to test if anything is causing your acne. I thought this was nonsense at first, but when I stopped eating dairy my acne went away almost completely after a week. It's not the same for everyone, it could be wheat, dairy, anything really. Plus it's not like you have to completely remove it from your diet. I still drink milk a few times a week and my acne is gone as long as I maintain good hygiene.

in one day.
doxycycline has some reported side effects like brain swelling, vomiting, nausea, and headaches, but I'm lucky and have gotten NONE of those after 10 hours. time will tell but i feel great.

what is your routine?

Doctors can prescribe pills for you to take if it's bad enough.
There is no excuse for your ugliness.

I'm gonna make an appointment soon
What was your breaking point?
>21 and no longer have acne
>still a recluse but at least don't have to see disgusting red bumps above my lip in the mirror anymore
Feels alright man. Acne is the worst. Ugly manlets are invisible, but acne makes you physically repulsive.

I had a moderate case of acne with 2-3 painful cysts at any given moment with papules and some pustules around my mouth, all of which gave the area around my mouth a really red and irritated color. the first thing i did prior to the derm was doing absolutely nothing to my face except letting water go over it in the shower (cold water) and not touching it for a week. my face calmed down and then the derm gave me my prescriptions. in a few weeks or so my acne is supposed to worsen and then fully clear.
keep in mind that antibiotics are sometimes a temporary solution, and that your acne may very well return after your round of antibiotics.
any more questions?
>>25325241
Am
Water
Clinique moisturizer
Pm
a glycolic cleanser
Clinique moisturiser
And of course all the change pillow case memes
>>25325442
so... you're not using any actual treatment other than the glycolic cleanser?
>>25325498
It's better this way bro
Any of that shit makes my skin really dry then really oily
You make a good point though
I'll probably start using benzoyl peroxide again
What do you do?
>>25325145

I used to be in the same boat OP. Recently I started drinking camomile tea. I've noticed that since then my acne has disappeared. I have searched medical literature for an explanation but found no clear explanation. Here is what I know:
>Camomile contains a few strongly anti inflammatory compounds
>Apigenin, a compound in camomile thins your blood
>Apigenin also acts on GABA receptors and helps you sleep (why the tea can make you feel sleepy)
>Apgenin is an aromatase inhibitor, it prevents other hormones from being converted to estrogen
Camomile tea is very cheap, widely available and studies indicate other possible beneficial effects. Please try it out save yourself from horrible scarring like myself.
Pic related is what I have, 2 teabags per day. I don't recommend more than this since it has given me headaches at 4 teabags per day. The half life of Apigenin is like 90 hours, so it might be a good idea to also have some days off or stop drinking it for a few days every week.
here is the picture, woops
Try using hibeclens on it.
