"i never had cysts, just mild breakouts and comedonal acne on my forehead and barely on my cheeks or on my chin. i can&#039;t believe how much i took my skin for granted. i asked my pediatrician for a medication to help my skin before freshman year. wow. my doctor gave me epiduo and by 8 weeks i knew epiduo wasn&#039;t working for me. i had cystic acne on my cheeks, which i&#039;ve literally never had before in my life. it wasn&#039;t something i&#039;ve ever been used to. my right cheek, which used to be the worst, it literally completely cleared after this 12 weeks, but i paid the price. my purge period was 5 times worse than everyone else&#039;s, and much longer. i had about 7-9 cysts on my freaking cheek at a time. try it out. i have much clearer skin but i paid for it"
