I was very excited when my friend Clara emailed a news article to me today about scientists finding a cure for acne.
Apparently scientists were doing a study on a drug that is used to treat another condition. In their research they discovered that the drug also reduces the sebum production in pores by 90% (this is similar to what roaccutane does). But, this drug is very different to roaccutane because they are yet to find any significant side effects. Wow, that’s great.
HOWEVER (and unfortunately there’s always a however), around three in every ten patients taking the drug did not respond to it, this means it will not work for everyone 
These things also take time. A pharmaceutical company is currently conducting trials on the drug and to make it into a cream form which they think will work faster. So, we may find that once this drug is made available, all of us reading this article will have been long cured from our skin condition and will no longer have acne!! Hey, but that’s great too.
In any case, this is promising news and I’m definitely going to keep my ears and eyes open for any further developments. Hey, it’s not a natural product and we don’t exactly know what it is yet …but if it’s in a cream form and there are no significant side effects, it sounds damn good so far.

Is this real or like a hoax
No it’s totally real. But it’s not THAT great because as you can see it will take years before it’s made available, AND it doesn’t work for everyone.
