For cryin' out loud, before you flail at your skin with whatever, go see a dermatologist first!
Husband had severe acne (like, cysts on his face and back) during his teen years, so I expected our son to have it , too. He did...I got him the Proactive stuff and it made the acne worse.
Dermatologist prescribed an OTC soap and a prescription ointment (which mostly just dried out his skin) and a low-dosage antibiotic. That helped, and time did the rest.
Husband had an early cryogenic peel (like 1973-74). It was amazing how it removed scars, but it was really not a good thing too do - too strong at the time, like 3rd degree burns.
