Severe acne

2022-05-12 06:35:28
I have suffered from acne for around 10 years initially it was mild and then it progressed to severe . I took a course of retinol around 7 years ago but did not complete it due to carelessness. I have acne on my body , scalp and face . It seems to grow more in hair be it face or body . I have been using topical clindamycin 1% to contain any severe outbreak. Please recommend a suitable treatment so I can be rid of once and for all.
