Having acne is pretty inconvenient, right? It doesn't look good and it's uncomfortable and painful too. So what's a girl to do? There are loads of acne products on store shelves, but sometimes you need something stronger than that. Prescription products are much more intense and often have much better results. But that requires seeing a doctor. Not anymore!
