I know i have posted before but im trying to find anyone who may have not been on my old thread about acne as i am desperate.

Had acne since ds born (19 mnth) mainly chin and jaw. Tried EVERY product you can buy including pro active and nothing has worked. Been on numerous anti biotics and topical stuff and seen 2 diff dermatologists and nothing has helped me. I have also seen dietician and had the york test done for allergies etc.

I am currently using agnus castus, natural witch hazel wash, cleanser etc and magnesium and drinking loads of water.

Nothing is helping me and it is getting me down. Doctor has more or less wash hands of me as none of them have anything to suggest anymore. I will not try roaccutane because we want to have another soon and also i have not long been off anti p's and have history of depression so am not prepare to risk my mental health on it and my gp agrees.

Anything at all you have/anyone had that worked i be so greatful

I've lost count of the times I've been told I'll grow out of it- I'm 26 and it just seems to be getting worse

I had it for a while, it cleared up with a combination of zinc pills, omega oil supplements and
this topical treatment set (which I chose because it's suitable for people with rosacea, which I am prone to)
