i also recommend you see a good endocrinologist and a naturapath. they can see if your hormones are out of balance and help regulate them if needed.

you might also want to boost your vitamin b levels. some people have found that an undetected vitamin b deficiency leads to acne. this may help a bit, not that it will be a cure.

I´ve had the same problems and when I got to an endocrinologist,I found out I had(and still have)PCOS.

Accutane did a lot of difference though,and using Paulas Choice 8%AHA gel and 2% BHA solution(I alternate between them)keeps my skin the clearest now since childhood.


Also,I´m on a diet that excludes many dairy products and keep my weight down with Metformin(Glucofag in the EU)
