I have been battling the acne a long time, too. I finally went to a dermatologist who suggested a skincare system by a company called NuCelle. I am 34 and have tried *everything*. Retinols, spironilactone, bcp's,tetracycline etc. The only thing that has worked is this 4 part regimine 2X a day. Took about a month, but my skin has been gorgeous since. (really!) The best thing I did was go see a dermatologist. His office also has an aesthetician so I can get laser hair removal there, too! Katherine
