Hi Jinyee,
I have started ur regimen for more than a month and i am no longer having acne problem now. What i'm doing is simple, wash my face twice (morning & night) with Cetaphil and apply Panoxyl 2.5% on acne area (alternate days) To my surprise, within a week, my big acne started to shrink and didn't get any new acne (normally, will get 1 or 2 new acne in 4-5 days <big or small acne> My face is clear from acne starting from 2 weeks plus from the regimen. Of coz there is still acne scar/spot but i can tell, it's healing~
I used to have lots of pimples/ big bump on my face. I have tried many solution out there, expensive cleanser, toner, mosturizing, topical and even oral medications. Only oral antibiotics helped to control and cleared my face. However there was one big problem, my acne bacteria seems to be immuned over the time and fight back with even worse outbreak! I took antibiotics since 10 years ago, it reduced and cleared my face within a month. Took the antibiotics for a year and stopped, problem back after 7-8 months and i have to repeat the medication. This was what i do for the past few years, been upgrade/change the antibiotics, tetracycline>minocycline>doxycyline. All these oral capsules was prescribed by dermatologist/skin specialist.
Finally, i have reached the immuned stage for doxycycline too, and the doctor gave me stronger pills, accutane. Even though, the doc said the only side effect from taking it is that ur lip will be dry and chapped. But damn, before i start taking the pills,i found tons of side effects from the net and one of them which i afraid the most that it will thin or bald ur hair! I lose confidence and decided not to follow the doc advise or medication anymore cause the end of the days, i may cleared my acne, but taking another medication for my losing hair from the side effect. This is the situation they're facing from some of the people out there.
Luckily, i found this forum while i was searching for the accutane side effect. After reading through all the pages (100+ pages, don't ask me how i can do that XP) I decided to give it a tried and IT WORKS!! Now, without any oral antibiotics, with just practicing a simple step of the regimen, my face is getting better and free from acne.
For you guys whom suffering the skin problem, i think it's no harms for giving it a shot~ At least be patience with the regimen for the 1st two months.
Lastly, I hope this review helps and again, thank you so much, Jinyee!!!
