No surprise: Acne is a chronic, incurable, non-lifestyle-related disease that at your age is a serious personal and professional liability. If your present regimen of doxycycline, azeliac acid and benzoyl peroxide has not stopped a flare, it's time to think about the big guns. Isotretinoin is not for the faint-hearted, and is not without its own risks, but you owe it to yourself to weigh whether it's for you.
