I'm 23 years old and NEVER had acne a day in my life. After having my first daughter and getting an IUC, my face suffered from severe cystic acne that was almost painful. I had tried Differin Gel in many different strengths, chemical peels, "acne facials", Pro Activ, an just about every Neutrogena product out there. Five dermatologist later and a few hundred bucks, I was prescribed something that changed my life, Solodyne! The results were almost immediate and the pain subsided within and day or two.
My Doctor: Carolyn Pass, MD
My rating:
Overall, Dr Pass is very knowledgeable in her treatment plans. When all other Doctors let me down she came through with a very responsive treatment. No other doctor recommended Solodyne, and after being prescribed Acyne once, and Differin Gel twice, I'm glad I got the results I'd been looking for.
If I'm remembering right, Solodyne is a form of the antibiotic Minocycline. Is that correct? I'm so glad to hear it is working well for you!! Its always nice when you find something that relieves your acne.
I do know what you mean about it almost hurting. The really bad cystic ones kind of throb, especially when you bend over, or at least that is the way it is for me.
How long have you been on the Solodyne?
Oh wow, so you were able to go on and off it and still see good results? That is great!! I didn't realize that was the plan. I assumed it was a medicine you stayed on. How long has it been since your last round of Solodyne?
