Hi Lauren...acne is a sever skin condition and you should ask your dermatologist about this. However i personally think to get rid of acne you need to relx, soothe and calm your skin. Get rid of stress, you'll have healthy skin.

If you do get a facial don't be discouraged if you break out at first, because that's what's supposed to happen. I agree with WebDesign that if you have already tried a lot of products and they're not working for you, you should probably see a dermatologist. Staying hydrated is also an important part in combating acne. Make sure you are eating a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables as well, or at least taking some vitamins, good nutrition can do wonders for the skin.
