"about 5 months ago i had a major breakout on my chin. i&#039;m 27, never had a problem with acne before. i&#039;d been through a number of topical creams and antibiotics, without any result. if anything, the breakout was worse. i was a few weeks away from starting accutane, when as a last resort my doctor gave me atralin. it took about two weeks before i saw much of an improvement, but it works wonderfully. it didn&#039;t burn like any of the other topical creams and didn&#039;t make it worse before better, like most of the other ones. i&#039;ve been using the atralin for a couple of months now and my skin has cleared up completely. i have had maybe two or three very small blemishes since then, and even those are gone within a day or two. i highly recommend it!"
