Thank you so much for your great review. I have a similar story adult cystic acne and I'm 39. I hope your doing well.

Thank you for sharing. I have scarring and it's really depressing. I used to be called "Noxema Girl" in High School . Never even had a pimple until I hit early 20's. Now, at 33, I can't even bare to look myself in the mirror. I have had mild breakouts, but always squeeze and pick and I have scars allover my face. It is so terribly discolored now. Your posting gives me hope! You look great!!!

I fee for you Crystal22435, I suffered with adult acne too (18-30's). Have you ever spoken to your doctor or seen a dermatologist? Mine was diet related, I cut out all animal products and sugar and I am clear of cystic acne. I do have the scars that remain. Check this out, very informative:

Take dim by pure Encapsulations, works well for hormonal acne.

I love it, you look great, I'm like you, but mine goes to my chest too, I'm so scarred and guys are like, your boobs look good, but what's that (no more breakouts just scarring). I stopped dairy, I use doryx, epiduo and aczone combined with a decent cleanser from obagi. My body I use an oatmeal cleanser because it's gentle. Oh, I have eczema too....fun right? Now that I'm clear I want to do a laser treatment too, I still get one or two, but nothing like I used to. I can't do a treatment as strong as yours, it does look amazing though. I cannot afford the downtime on my face, chest yes, face no, any suggestions from your end? I figured I would ask since your skin looked just like mine does now. Thanks. Btw you look beautiful :D

Expect you skin to purge! I found a lovely girl to do extractions and we plan ok doing chemical peels as soon as Dr Marin gives the go ahead.

Takes up to six months to see results. I am already loving my skin. It hasn't stopped my breakouts but of course I didn't expect it too!
