• You actually show partial improvement with adapalene + benzoyl peroxide (less inflammation in recent photos) • Current issue is persistent inflammatory acne + post-inflammatory marks, not treatment failure • Likely irritation + barrier damage + lack of sunscreen is slowing recovery Next steps • Continue adapalene at night (pea-sized, whole face) • Use benzoyl peroxide only as spot treatment (not full face daily) • Add gentle moisturizer twice daily (very important) • Start sunscreen (SPF 30–50) daily even indoors • Add niacinamide (morning) for oil control + marks • If still active acne → consult dermatologist for oral antibiotics (short course) or combination therapy Helpful tips / Words of caution • Don’t overuse benzoyl peroxide → causes dryness & rebound acne • Don’t expect full results before 3–4 months (you’re at ~2.5 months) • Avoid picking/squeezing → prevents scars • Keep routine simple and consistent • ⚠️ If acne becomes cystic, painful, or leaves scars → seek in-person dermatology care early Kindly consult with me via Practo for detailed evaluation and treatment
