Acne
How bad does acne have to be for you to consult your GP?
I've had acne (on my chest, back and face) for as long as I can remember but it's never been horrendously bad. It gets worse just before my period and improves a little bit afterwards but it's always there.
Compared to what some people have, I don't suppose it's that bad so I don't feel like I have much of a right to complain. However, I'm 17 now and fed up of being a spotty teenager. I've become quite conscious of it lately even though I don't think it's gotten any worse recently.
I've used a lot of different things - from brands like Clearasil, Clean & Clear, etc. to Avon and Boots' own brand products - but nothing seems to have made much of a difference.
Can you recommend anything?
I suppose I don't want to waste anyone's time.

Visit your local pharmacist and ask for Quinoderm, 10% B.P.
Your G.P. probably will not hesitate to prescribe you anti-biotics; these are worthwhile, at least as a precursor (or pre-requisite) to more intensive treatment, but probably will not achieve lasting results.
