Okay, so I've got some questions regarding Acne for you ladies out there... So far as what your perspective on it is. Right now, I've got like barely any on my face, or chest, but it's another story for my back. I've been on 1000mg's (Yes, 1000 with THREE zeroes..) of antibiotics a day, and some creams 'n' shit, and it's helped a lot, but I need a few questions answered...
For the record, I know how f*cking gross it is, lol, I get to look in the mirror everyday. So what my few questions will come down to is attractiveness.
How much of a turn off is it really? Seein' some guy at the beach with mainly red bumps on his back? If you were dating an otherwise attractive guy, and you saw him without a shirt on and he had bad back acne, would you break up with him? Hell, if you knew about it, would you even wanna date him?
Well I know I'm a guy, but I had the same problem as you got for some years ago, I also did antibiotics, but if it's making scars and it come back, and if it's really many and really big ones, you should try roaccutan, I did roaccutan and my back is nearly clean from acne, it's coming 1 or 2 sometimes, some scars, but otherwise it's completely clean.
If you think your back looks gross, and you don't think you're attractive, I think that's a bigger problem. =)
Ya, you hope it goes away eventually, lol. Noxema, huh? Well, right now like I said I'm on 1000mg's of anti biotics, and two creams. Well technically one. I have a friend whose 'poor' so to speak, and I'm letting him use the one that I don't. The I do use, however, is called "Retin-A Micro" Or something like that, maybe it's without the hyphen?

Sorry, I'm a guy, but I felt I had to answer. xD
I used to have terribleacne, but I went on a course of roaccutin and it did wonders. Its really, really good.
I used to have acne too, but then I started to take medication for it. The medication I took made my skin feel more fragile. That's when I decided to stop using it and just wait until the acne was over.
What I mean to say is, if you do have acne, don't worry...a lot of people have acne but it passes eventually.
