When Accutane is not a option for adult acne what are other options?
Accutane is not a option for me and I have tried many antibiotics. What are my options for severe acne? I have heard about laser treatment. Does it work? I am 29 and I have dealt with this for 6-7 years now. What can I do besides live on meds forever
