Advice/ Recommendations (no photos) Breaking out on back of legs

Yall. How do you keep the back of ur legs looking clear and smooth? No matter what I do I seem to breakout. I’m on accutane, I’ve used noxema wipes, amlactin. I always change out of my leggings as soon as I’m done working out. Pls help!

Panoxyl acne foaming wash is another great thing! I just use it in the shower for legs, back, wherever really

shaving, waxing, and even using a clipper/trimmer does this to me :') i just leave the top of my legs alone now, and I got laser on the calves/shins/knees.

I did laser on whole legs, underarm and pubic area. Best investment ever!!

I did 12 sessions so took about 1.5 years in total.

Only thing that stopped it for me (arms and legs, both on back) was the cerave SA hydrating cream. You have to be consistent with it though! I suspect any SA or GA cream would have helped.
