Doxycycline anyone?

i think tanning really just "hides" the acne, doesnt really clear it up (so i can still feel the nastieness on my back, and a few days later, you can see it again)....maybe it temporarily drys it out, but thats about it...for me at least.

UV light doesnt just hide acne (although it does help make blemishes less prominent, and hide deeper active scarring from previous pimples) it actually reduces the number and severity of pimples/pustules. it is a real treatment.

also, doxy works well on some people.

dermatologicals are funny, you have to tweak and try a few things depending on the patient. some benefit greatly jsut with sun. others need an accutane. others need a moisturiser. most just need to wash their sheets more often.

your doc is definitely on the right track, you dont have much to lose, and lots to gain.
