May need Med: At 20, acne can still be a problem although it should be slowing down."regular acne" is usually just on the face and tends to respond to washing, topical medicine like benzoyl peroxide and time. If acne is also on the back and breast area it could be a severe form called cystic acne.If you have cysts, scars, sore swollen nodules, please be seen as this may need strong medication.

Acne: Make an appointment with a dermatologist to try retin a (tretinoin) cream. Most importantly keep your hands out of face.
