oh gosh, acne was my worst enemy in high school. whatever i did it never went away. i tried spa treatments, drug-store treatments, and dermatologist treatments. what helped alot for me was being on birth control [lo loestrin fe] and using this product to get rid of the scarring: roc retinol correction deep wrinkle night cream. [dont be intimidated by "wrinkle" it works on scarring]
after the nightly application of this cream, i'd wait 10 minutes and them a little moisturizer after. weekly, or whenever i needed an extra boost, i'd use a mask--like queen helene mask that you can buy in a drug store. this regimen helped my skin A LOT.
having a lot of acne made me feel so self conscious and even made me not want a boyfriend. i believed that when you had a boyfriend he would have to see you without makeup at one point...and that scared me because i knew how many blemishes i was covering up. i feel your pain hun. don't worry getting rid of acne takes time. best of luck to you!
