What is the most fool-proof acne treatment that doesn’t over-dry the skin and works quickly?

I am a 30 yr old female with combination/oily skin. i have never had problems with acne in the past other than an occasional pimple here and there. i have tried neutrogena, which is said to be better than proactiv, but it doesn’t work, and it over dries my skin. i usually break out around my chin, and on either side of my nose. these originate from under the skin. i need a remedy. any dermatologists out there with suggestions? anyone?

i’ve kept up with proactive for over two years and i think it is the best ever. i went from having 20 some pimples to like a few. Each skin is different and medcines work for some people and not others but i most definatly would suggest proactive if you havent already tried it. it might be expensive but to me it is worth it.
