I am 23 years old and I still have bouts of acne. How am I supposed to grow up when I still have Oxy pads in my medicine cabinet? Anyone a little old for this affliction and still bothered by it? I am also looking for someone with an effective solution.

I had similar problems into my mid 20's. I went to a Dermatologist who diagnosed it as Rosceca. He put me on Acutane for about 6 months and now I rarely have any problems.

was that expensive? did insurance cover it?
I used to get breakouts into my twenties. I then gave up alcohol and drugs. Now I rarely get pimples but when I do, here is what I do. I use Clean&Clear Continuous Control Acne Cleanser by Johnso&Johnson. Only warning there is get a whole lot of white towels as that soap will bleach anything...:) Then at night just use Mint Julep Masque by Queen Helene. That's it. I know it may sound weird coming froma guy but I am the most shallow person on Earth, so i'm a lil crazy when I get a pimple. If that fails just do what I do, work from home and never leave the house...:(

At the time I was on it(1997) it was expensive and not covered by insurance. I would just suggest consulting a Dermatologist. You may not need something so drastic.

Are you overweight? Are you living off of an unhealthy diet? Those are usually the two biggest factors when it comes to post-adolesence acne...
