#4Accutane is pretty miraculous, if you want to risk the side effects and can get it somewhere it's available. It worked for me (~ 10 years ago).

I had no motivation to try to bump this to the front page. Just wanted some input. I agree.

#7If only there was a simple way to stop sebaceous glands less toxic than accutane.
Washing with soap a lot throughout the day and applying moisturizer with a small amount of salycic acid liberally has helped me a lot to control it on my face.

#8Two ways.
One - cover your pillow with a fresh clean outofthefdrier towel every night. Acme nuked.
Two - goto the bathroom. Run the hot water until it is steaming. Fold up a face cloth. Soak in the running hot water. Press to acne. If your eyes don't water, you're not doing it right. Acme nuked again.
