I’ve never really had skin problems until five months ago.. All of a sudden it was like I was full on pizza face. I finally went to the derm and she told me it was hormonal. Which I assumed that it was based on the location of the breakouts.  She told me it was good that I was on birth control, although it was not preventing it. She prescribed me Ziana face cream and Spironolact to take daily. I’ve been doing this for almost three months now and my face still is not clear.  I have really bad redness in areas from breakouts that I cannot get to go away. On my ‘check-up’ appointment, I told her I was not happy with the results and I still have a lot of redness.. she then told me that the redness is not going away because she did not put me on antibiotics.. and that the Spironolact takes 3 to 4 months to notice a difference… This does not work for me. My face is still breaking out bad… the only difference from when I started this process to now is my extremely dry flaky skin that I can not get rid of. So now I have redness, pimples and extreme dry flaky skin. If that wasn’t bad enough, I have to put more make up on to cover it.. but at the end of the day, my face looks so cakey from my dry skin. Something better improve fast or else Im going into hiding.
