From a person who has suffered with acne for years, and used hunderds of dollars in different products, the only thing that worked significantly for me was a perscription medication called Acutane. I was perscribed it at the dermatologist, and there were no complications for me because I am a male, and most of the side effects are for females. As far as over-the-counter-cheap-fix medications go, any medication with benzoyle peroxide as the active chemical works better than most salycillic (sp?) acid medications.

My nephew use a brand that you get from Walmart. It tells you it is just like the expensive stuff they show on tv. Good Luck

use products like clearasil or seabreeze with a sort of cream that you put on your face or baking soda toothpaste.. but that kinda burns..
