If I have insurance and it includes coverage for a dermatologist is it cheaper to go to a dermatologist to solve my acne problems or buy over the counter products?

i have some acne on my chest and near my upper back……do you know any home remedies to cure it? i dont wanna have to go to a dermatologist…
if it helps, i have long, curly hair….

it has 10 % benzoyl peroxide and says not to put it on your hair because it will cause bleaching
but i only put it in a couple spots to get a few streaks
and i was bored and got carried away and just bassically dumped the whole bottle on my hair and now i have these really ugly light patches all over my hair

what should i do ??
how can i fix this with out going to a salon ??

I’ve been struggling with acne for a while. Not major break outs, but some on my face, and it bothers me. Right now, I’m currently using Neutrogena Power Foam Wash. It works, but not all of it’s gone. What works best for you?

I’ve wanted to try proactive, but I heard if you miss using it, your acne returns, worse then before. & it also gets expensive.
Any information on how proactive worked for you?
