Acne that does not respond to gels or isotretinoin may need a more holistic approach. Along with medication, lifestyle and skin care play a very important role. Please follow these steps:
• Diet & Lifestyle: Avoid oily, fried foods, dairy excess, and high
sugar. Increase water intake, fruits, vegetables, and good sleep. Stress management (yoga/meditation) also helps.
• Skin Care: Use a gentle cleanser twice daily, non-comedogenic moisturizer, and always apply sunscreen in the morning.
• Advanced Treatments: Chemical peels (salicylic, glycolic, or mandelic) and medical facials help reduce acne and pigmentation.
• Medical Evaluation: Sometimes blood tests (hormonal, PCOS,
vitamin D, etc.) are needed for resistant acne.
Don’t lose hope—acne is treatable with the right combination of treatments and lifestyle corrections.
