A member asked:

Hello, i'm 20 and i still have acne problem. doctors tell me it's hormonal but their prescriptions show no results?

See dermatology: A dermatologist would likely be able to help you find a personalized acne regimen to control or reduce your symptoms. Treatment of acne can be difficult and frustrating, but dermatologists are expert at this condition. Best wishes.
