BCP for skin

Hello,
I was wondering what would be the best type/brand of birth control pill for me. While I would need it for the obvious, I also have acne prone skin (cystic-mostly on my jaw line) and it was suggested to me that I try bcp because it would regulate my hormones. Thanks for your help!

Years ago, when I was a teenager with a face full of acne, my doctor prescribed a birth control pill called Diane 35.

I was stupid and did not use it.

Last week, I went to see a doctor to prescribe some suitable birth control pills for me, he gave me a free sample called ALESSE.

This doctor also mentioned that Diane 35 is the best for acne.
Hope this helps.
