Default My cure for acne

Hello everyone. I don't post here too often, kind of sit back and learn from everyones posts but don't have a great level of experience with gear to help anyone but newbies here. Anyhow, i did a 15 week cycle of deca and sust, running only 500mg of each a week. I got really bad acne towards the end of the cycle and did not go away. Tetracycline didn't work. I tried everything over the counter topically and had very little success. Tanning kept it hidden better, but didn't help. I had large cystic acne on my delts and upper back, and some around my collar area and the center of my chest just above my stomach. The routine that started to work for me included starting with washing every night with purpose soap. I purchased some high dosage retin-a from an online pharmacy, .1% and applied that 30 minutes after my shower. The retin a also helps greatly with helping scars fade. In the morning after my workout i shower again and wash with panoxyl bar, which has 10% benzoyl peroxide. After this shower i apply vita-k on areas of my red spots/scars. This helps them fade as well. Finally and probably most importantly, I got a prescription for erythromicin. I took a dose of 500mg twice daily for a week, then went down to 250 twice daily. Gives some diarrhea but has worked amazingly well. I am considering trying moderma for scars but am very satisfied with my progress, just a month ago i had pretty serious acne and now i am probably at least 80% clear. That said, I'd love feedback from everyone and if any vets out there know any ways to stay on aas and minimize the risk of acne, please post it up. I have heard that underground gear is worse for acne than human grade. Also have heard that if test is not used as a base in a cycle there is less risk of acne. Hopefully this can give some of you a guide on how to deal with acne, and I would love any feedback.
