"i&#039;ve only been on doryx for 5 weeks so far, but my face is completely smooth except for maybe 1-2 pimples. around the 3rd week though, my acne got sooooo bad!! my face was just purging all of the bad stuff out, i guess. but stick with it! my face is super smooth now, but i have a lot of scars (makeup can cover those up, but i really want those to go away soon). i didn&#039;t rate it a 10 just because i&#039;m not done with the drug yet."
