I've been dealing with butt acne and it's really bothering me. I'm thinking about using Neutrogena acne wash and Mederma for the scars it left. Do you think these would work? Or is there something else you recommend? I'm really looking for some advice on how to clear this up.

I've been through over 20 laser hair removal sessions on my face with two different doctors, but now Im dealing with even more coarse hair growth than before.

Could you explain the potential side effects or downsides of electrolysis treatment?
