How long did you stay on Ziana? I just started 3 weeks ago. I'm praying this is my cure. Have you been consistently clear? Did it ever stop working?
and when did you start seeing results? I am still breaking out :(

I'm not sure what is going on this website...
The website is being very buggy for adding photos on here. I'm going to try to attach again... it's only 275 kb!

Day 17
Redness over chest is not acne. I'm starting to think it's a mild reaction to the Solodyn. It is sometimes itchy and improves with hydrocortisone cream (regular acne would not). As long as it doesn't become terrible, I'm okay with this.
Texture changes have been much appreciated! Still a lot of work to go. I'm not sure if I've had the "initial break-out." Is it usually something hugely dramatic that I would know right away? I've had new break-outs appear in strange places, but nothing terrible. I'm not sure if it's my skin doing it's thing, or if this is the initial break-out. It has definitely calmed down. A get one or two each day that go away fairly quickly. I do have stubborn ones on the top of my right cheek that go away and come back.
No picking (well mostly)! Actually, since most of it is post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, I'm finding that there isn't much to pick at. Every now and then I see a clogged blackhead on my cheek that I "help" along, VERY gently with little pressure. They're gross little buggers. The others never rear their head... they just show up and go away.
Seriously, if anybody reads this... I'm going to have some serious anxiety if I don't find out when to expect this "initial breakout." I'm at Day 17 and suspect that I've had the breakouts, but they weren't hugely dramatic. When was yours?
