let me help reiterate
forget proactiv unless you want to try everything
there are little lifestyle habits you can work on as mentioned and whatever you try could have a minor temporary effect depending on how you implement its use
the only even remotely effective option is acutane but only for severe cases
everybody worries and complains about acne but a very small percentage of moderate sufferers actually find out they have a severe case of the disease
if theres a chance you have such a case you gotta look into it immediately
and youll find out that acutane has serious side effects some of which are not all that uncommon
there have even been various reports of chronic undiagnosable circumstances characterized by developmental attacks on the nervous system
like inexplicable localized permanent nerve damage of a debilitating nature
if you were to get a prescription from a qualified doctor not many have the time and interest to properly warn you
the general estimation is that you can survive a rigorous course of acutane completely unscathed without the slightest merely unpleasant of side effects 70-80 percent of the time
of course the absolute most serious side effects are very rare but theres a rather large gray area were dealing with concerning this drug
even after a lengthy course recurrent breakouts have been known to occur for as much as 35 percent of patients in some studies
some people will try anything to get rid of their acne but if you’ve got a hookup or something this is probably the last drug you wanna mess around with
