I'm 29 and still have acne on my face
Cheek, chin and forehead acne also some on the back. Have had since a teenager but still not resolved. Seen many dermatologists over the years. Do niacinamide, salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide products work?

No.. 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 me more photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Acne is not a disease. It is a skin condition. There is no treatment for acne. Acne has to be managed. Hence general measures, treatment and maintainance has to go hand in hand or else this will be the issue for long time. Many reach a stage of clear healthy skin after appropriate measures. To reach that it has to be handled by a dermatologist. Many actives can lead to skin purging. Hence do not use without consulting
