"after suffering from cystic acne my whole life (i&#039;m 33) and using salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide for years to manage it, i noticed my skin was noticeably aging more than my twin sister who wasn&#039;t on these products. after reading clear skin forever and the dangers of those products, i took myself off and immediately broke out. the breakouts got worse for several months until i saw a dermatologist who put me on spiro. i&#039;ve been on it for almost a year and it changed my life. it takes a while for everything to heal, especially cystic acne and scarring, but my skin looks amazing now. started noticing the benefits after a month and it&#039;s gotten continually better. stay away from clean and clear and clearasil products and see a dermatologist."
