Hi, I had moderate acne as a teenager and now I"m 23 and still have occasional breakouts. First of all it's not your diet, so go on eating junk food. My doctor prescribed me several kinds of anti-biotics. He asked me if I wanted to take Acutane when I was 18ish and I said no. Why? It has side effects like possible liver damage. Here in Canada you have to take monthly blood tests while on Acutane.
From a personal standpoint prescription medication + Vitamin A based cream works well. On top of that clean your face well and I find that using your hands to search your face for dried up oil clogging your pores and removing them also helps, usually acne face washes have an abrasive material to do this for you but going over with your hand seems to help.
