Taking apple cider vinegar for cystic acne, anything else I should be doing?

I’ve tried everything for cystic acne except estrongen-dominant birth control pills and Accutane, the latter which I refuse to try because my cousin had such a horrible experience with it.
I’ve gone the homeopathic route now. I’m taking two capsules of apple cider vingear three times a day and also putting the ACV on my face, back and chest directly in the morning and at night after washing.
I am cutting out dairy, too. Is there anything else I should be doing?

My dermatologist gave me a few other anti biotics before letting me try Accutane. You do know they first test for a lot of things right? If there’s any chance your allergic or in a condition where Accutane would cause a big problem, they simply won’t prescribe it.
I got Accutane except under a different brand name “Curacne”. I got 20 mgs a day which I think is a low dosage and I can honestly say I’ve experienced no side effects other than dry lips and my derma STILL insisted I go for the blood test. If they don’t prescribe Accutane to you, you could always try birth control as well.
Moving on to things you didn’t mention..
I’ve heard from a lot of people that spinach is good for your skin and will improve it if eaten consistently. Eat a lot of other leafy greens and drink a lot of water. Try not to touch your face either. I had an acne picking problem so I cut my nails and bought gloves and eventually got out of it.
Your best bet would be going to a derma and getting some medication. I still think you should give Accutane a try because it differs from person to person. Go on a lower dosage so that if you get a side effect, it’s minor. It might take a longer time to work than a higher dosage, but it eventually will.
Good luck! xx
