Ok, so I have some back acne and stuff. I’m a girl, I’m 15 years old and I need a way t treat or take care of my acne of my back. I change my under garments daily etc. Since that most likely isn’t the problem is there any way to treat it? Like any body soaps or face acne treatments I should use? Or will it just get better as I get older?

I started having acne on my nose back in 03 and since then its been a nightmare. I just assumed it was reg acne at 1st but then it started getting worse, just fig’d out that its cystic acne last week. I never have them anywhere else around my face but my nose. It comes up like boils and clears up sometimes but now I have like permanent little ones that sometimes increases. I’ve tried antibiotics, birth control pills and a few prescription topical creams but nothing has cleared it up so far. Whenever I start a treatment it looks like it works at 1st but then the acne gets immune and just comes out again. I really need help its been 6yrs now and my dermatologists have not been of great help so far. Thnx

I have an acne problem on my back, and its very annoying.
It leaves blotchy scars and looks terrible.

I just wanted to know if there are any acne treatments for my back besides lotions and washes and laser treatments.

DO NOT suggest proactive solution, I have heard it makes it worse if you stop using it.
