Question
I currently use Differin in the morning and Duac 5% peroxide in the evening for my treatment for about 1 year now. I'm 19 in college and have had constant problems with acne no matter the season, situation or activity. I've started to look around at alternatives but through cleaver marketing, everyone claims to have the best product on the market. One product that has my attention is on www.acne.org. Do you have any experience with this product?
Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated. I'm just tired of having acne and am ready to try anything.
Thanks,
Nick
Answer
If the topicals you are using are not that effective, you should add an oral antibiotic like Solodyn or Doryx. If you see no improvement within 4-6 weeks, then you need to consider accutane. 80% of the patients that go on accutane never have acne again. The product you saw on the Internet is not better than differin or duac.
