      Hey guys, I am at school right now and going home this weekend to see a doctor for some acne meds. In case you are wondering why I am not going to a dermatologist its because I dont have time to get a referral and wait 3 weeks to get an appointment with a dermatologist. Anyway, the doctor I go to is willing to refill any skin medication prescription I have and I am wondering if any of you guys have tried anything and have been very pleased with it. I am not really in the mood to take accutane, but for a couple years now my neck has broken out constantly and I am forced to where shirts with collars that I flip up to cover up the acne. Anyone ever have this problem and anyone take any prescription medication I can request when I go to the doctor this weekend? Please let me know asap, thanks guys and girls.

      Retin A is topical. Only thing I know is Accutane. You need to clean your neck at least three times a day with an expensive cleanser. Go to a BloomingsDale and look for an IMAC counter. They have good shit. Also, try a tanning bed.

      Oh I go tanning all of the time and it helps, but I cant go tanning enough to stop this crap from killin my neck, its embarrassing. Is IMAC a company? Do they have a website?

      IMAC is the makeup worn by the stars. They have great facial products but are expensive. I pay $50 for a pore minimizer and moisturizing cream. They have counters in high end department stores.

      If you want to get rid of it forever than accutane is the way to go.

      doxycycline works really well but isnt nearly as strong as accutain. it for people who dont have it real bad. it doesnt dry you out like accutain but takes 8wks to be cleared up. its worth it though in my opinion not to be all chapped looking in the face.

      Accutane is top of the line in acne treatment.... Its not exactly easy to just ask for. It has many sides and most dermitologists will not redily prescribe it. only in extreme cases.

      Both of my brothers did the accutane when they were younger and they got those red and dry faces, real chapped lips. maybe if I was still a young blood in middle school I would do that but I would never do that nowadays, I got to keep it REAL sexy

      My dad is a dermatologist.... He perscribed me accutane when i was in highschool for my pizza face... it does dry the hell out of your skin and makes y our lips crack and bleed out of controll... there really is no way to prevent this...

      I recently asked him if he could set me up with another perscription because my back is starting to get bad. He told me this would not be a good option because back acne is much harder to treat than facial acne, and it would take more than double the dosage to effectivly treat the back acne..... Moral of the story... If your gonna do steriods, be ready to cope with the sides.....

      not to mention accutane is extreamely expensive
