Ok im 18 now and i still have lots of acne im wondering if thats gonna end soon or at least calm down some since i guess im entering the last part of puberty im wondering if anybody might know when it will end

Most likely.

If not, you can always see a dermatologist and give accutane a try. You take it for 6 - 9 months and it permanently shrinks your oil producing glands causing you to not get acne.

I would guess it would end fairly soon. You could get a prescription from your doctor for an antibiotic that helps fight acne too.

For some teenagers acne will actually last a little bit past puberty, and I know a couple friends in university who still have acne. After around 21 or 22 it should go away though since you're definitely done puberty around that age.

Give benzoyl peroxide a try as well.

Don't bother getting the expensive proactiv stuff, just go to the pharmacy and get the something like Benzac, which is exactly the same thing without the marketing spin and $$$ around it.

The amount of acne will drop with age but most people still get acne throughout their adult life. Just clean your face with warm water twice a day. If you do buy acne medicine, don't get cheap stuff because a lot of the time the medicine will cause acne if you stop using.

Most likely... It probably won't all go but it will calm down a lot

It certainly will go away as time goes on, but you're going to want to use some sort of cream or something to prevent scarring and unwanted marks.
