acne
My daughter started w/ acne at age 12. MANY small bumps clustered together.(an occassional full blown large pimple) Forhead and sides of face around hairline the worst. Also on checks, chest and back.Forhead and sides are more hard with no real pus head, back, chest and checks, small with small pus head. Have tried every topical and combo, accutane 2x (ist time worked, came back 2nd time didn't but she fell in the depression/suicide category) have done microderms, peels and smoothbeam (total 10+ times). (laser woked pretty good durning 1st 3 treatments than nothing) also tried prescription nicomide. While all things seem to show improvement in the first few weeks, reverts back. She's now is eliminating all milk products.Currently on nicomide, tazarac and clydimicin. Switched make-up to mineral (only 3 minerals - so they so) I have spent 1000's of dollars and my heart breaks when I see her cry. She is now 21 and I'm running out of $ but know how important self esteem is and what the lack of it can do. Thank you so much for reading this and taking the time to respond.
Would you please send a photo of her skin so that I can better see the problem.
