Dear Rid Of Zits,

 

This is a very common concern for many teenagers. So common that FX has answered many similar questions. Please check out some of these links:

• Swimmer With Breakouts
• Oily Face
• Worried About Accutane
• Acne And Brown Spots
• Acne Prone Teen
• No More Zits
• Acne Problem

After reading these questions, you may want to speak to your doctor about treatments for acne. Your doctor may want you to see a dermatologist (a medical specialist that deals with acne).
