Answer 1

Talk to your dermatologist about Accutane. It has a lot of side effects but it is really really effective and it has a 50% cure rate- meaning that 1/2 the people who use it for a year and go off of it never get acne again.
I took it- made my skin 100% clear. But, it does make your skin VERY dry, and you have to get a pregnancy test every month because it can cause severe birth defects.

Don't worry too much about the facial hair -- if there's not too much of it, do you really need to do anything? Most guys are OK about women with, for example, a slight moustache.

If you do decide you have to do something, then there isn't a simple answer. Have a read through what follows -- but to sum it up, the only method of dealing with facial hair that isn't likely to make the acne worse is shaving with a men's-type electric razor, of which the least irritant ones are the Norelco (men's) models.

Facial (and also body) hair on women comes about in the same way as on men because of

1) your body being sensitized, before you were even born, to testosterone -- doesn't happen to all girls, but does to many

2) your body producing high levels of testosterone

The growth rate and coarseness of the hair depends on just how much testosterone is circulating in your bloodstream.

Steer clear of bleaching -- when someone sees you against the light you'll look as if you have a glowing moustache and/or beard.

As far as removing it is concerned it's worth remembering that

* Waxing, plucking, threading, epilating all pull the hair out by the roots and where the growth is hormonally-driven can actually stimulate a dormant follicle into producing more hair quicker. They also distort the root if done repeatedly, leading to hair growing at strange angles. And you've got to let the hair grow to quite a length before you can repeat the exercise. It can also damage the skin and discolor it. Long-term use of waxing also causes bad wrinkles.

* Chemical depilatories strong enough to remove the hair are very likely to burn the skin, cause swelling and cause long-term discoloration of the skin.

* Laser is also liable to cause burning and discoloration and in any case only works effectively on a dark hair/light skin combinantion.

* Electrolysis is very liable to cause scarring and discoloration of the skin.

Which, like it or not, leaves shaving which does not damage the skin. Best done with a men's-style electric razor, the best of which, for women, are probably those from the men's range of Norelco razors (Philishave outside the US). Most women who try a men's Norelco wonder why nobody ever told them about it before.

Stop shaving your face as it hardens hair and cuts and bleeds pimples. Also stop using creme, lotions and soaps. Try a soft and good bleaching creme and not hair removing creme. The bleaching will remove the colour of the hair and it will match with your skin. So half the problem is solved. For the second half of the problem, eat a good meal of vegetables and fruits. Take juice of a lemon and a spoonful of honey dissolved in plain water first thing in the morning daily. Also eat oranges and Amla (fruit) raw. Mix gram flour with curd and rose water and apply on face every alternate day and wash after some time. It will certainly do the thing.

Go to the doctor they will try different stuff but there is treatments that they can give you that you can't buy over the counter. My borhter had really bad acne and they put him on some pill which made things worse before it got better, but he now has no acne and it has never came back.
