Facing acne since 10 years
I have been having acne since last 10 years and have done several courses of antibiotics and isltretinoin but my acne always comes back whenever I stop the treatment. I looking for a safer treatment this time if possible which would require lesser medicines so that I may use it for longer period of time. Can I use adapelene gel or benzoyl peroxide daily for years?
Acne vulagris is due to oilness and hormonal changes...we cannot disturb hormones but we can reduce oil production which leads to comedomes...it take a little patience....proper topical and oral Medication will give good results...do online private consultation and I will prescribe u treatment
