Your right that Acne is a genetic/hormonal thing; but there is new found hope in the form of vitamin B5. I had Acne growing up, and was able to stop the majority of it with accutane. However, I still had an oily complexion. A year ago I discovered vitamin B5, and it has worked extremely well. People are taking 1-15 grams of B5 a day to get their desired results, and it's working.
