i've tried proactiv too, i find it didn't work for me. apparently only like 40-70% of people respond to proactiv, and some actually get worse acne because of it. accutane is still the single best solution out there right now, because it leaves permanent aftereffects and usually pretty much "cures" acne unless it was very bad, in which case it might take 2 courses of 6+months to be "cured". i say cure to mean having practically no acne except for an occasional one, which is nothing compared to what you get used to before using accutane.
