Pro Active skin care

Just wondering if there's anyone on here who's tried this skincare range for acne skin? More importantly does it work?!
I've tried the antibiotics from docs which work short term but body gets used to it. Tried medicated creams from doc & over the counter....
I'm 38 and it's just depressing to see bumps & spots all over face back and sides of neck.
If anyone has any new solutions I'd be really grateful. And yes I've tried tea tree oil, bathed in it and everything!

I haven't tried Proactive personally although plenty of products with the same active ingredient (salicylic acid) which doesn't prevent my acne.

Personally I would think about saving your money if other topical meds you have tried don't work and get your GP to refer you to a dermatologist. Sounds like you may have a hormonal imbalance causing your skin woes judging by your age (I have same issue). Skincare usually can't address the underlying cause of that. Neither do antibiotics really.
