Don't Lose Hope! [Acne]

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I never had any major acne problems in high school until I started college and they hit me like an angry red freight train. All over my face and back, it was unbearable and nothing I bought would even begin to clear it up.Off to the dermatologist I went, and I assumed all my problems would be solved as most other people's problems had been, but after six months of 0.3% adapalene, birth control and 6% benezol peroxide wipes I was really starting to feel discouraged.My dermatologist told me that my skin would go through purges and that it things would get worse before they got better but for most people things were getting better by 3-4 months and here I was at the 6th month mark with no changes, I never even went through any purges it was just constant but consistent blemishes and cystic acne everywhere. Due to finances accutane wasn't really an option for me but I was honestly starting to consider what I could sell to finally be rid of my own personal plague.Patience pays off my friends, dont lose hope.Here I am at 9 months into still using the same 0.3% adapalene, birth control, etc and not one closed comedome, pimple or blemish to speak of. My skin finally began clearing up in month 7 and continued even faster in month 8 and finally here I am with skin that I though would never get better.Hang in there guys, sometimes these things take much longer than we would like but trust me in the end they're worth it.Edit: spelling
