Pityriasis Alba

2017-08-07 14:42:07
I was undergoing an acne treatment from a dermatologist past 2 months, i was on sotret and now i have developed dry white patches on the face. The doctor said its p.alba and its curable. But i never had this problem before this treatment. Is it normal to have this? and is it curable? How long will it take and what should be done?
