Cut a long story short. I have acne. Particularly bad on the right side of my face. Been this bad since DS born 18 months ago. Have tried EVERY otc remedy, clearasil etc. Have tried about 5 types of anti biotics etc from the doc, topical and pills and NONE have worked. I can not take the combined pill so therefore cant take dianette etc.

Have recently bought proactiv off ebay which people rave about and even that isnt working! I take multi vits and eve primrose, good diet, excercise and drink plenty of water. Please can anyone help?! Im so desperate as really getting me down

this will sound mad but I guess you'll try anything now . Two things you could try - as it's more on one side of your face, could it be something you're putting on your hair that's irritating your skin (sometimes the cause of acne on foreheads). Second, try a really good moisturiser, my spots get really bad when my skin is dehydrated.
