    Dear Jill,

     

    You might find my blog, Six Strategies for Taming Teenage Acne, helpful - even if you are no longer in your teens! Proactiv is no stronger than the far less expensive zit creams you can buy in any drug store. It will probably give you some improvement in your acne, but it may dry or irritate your skin and, as I said, it's a weak treatment at a high price. You might wish to consider visiting a dermatologist for more effective treatment.

     

    Good luck with your move to DC; I'm a neighbor of yours, as my home is in Chevy Chase and my offices are in nearby Maryand and Virginia! 

     

    Best regards,

     

    Dr. Hema
