Not like that.. treatment depends on the grade...Acne or  pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please  send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Isotretinoin can be used in severe grade of acne vulgaris and before taking some lab investigation has to be done and physical consultation is required to assess the severity and to have dosage accordingly.There are no long term side effects
