Get seen again: You're on topical benzoyl peroxide and two retinoic acid derivatives and two meds whose names I'm not familiar with. You probably need something stronger. Go back and let the dermatologist know. Managing acne is a long-term project since it's not curable. He/she will probably want to see you and add any of the many possible stronger Rx's. If you're offered Isotretinoin (you have scars) consider it
