Isotroin and acne marks
Hi,
I had mild acne and my doctor prescribed isotroin 20mg. I had a lot of breakouts while on that medicine and now all the pimples have left black marks. Can isotroin fade away the black marks as well?

Isotroin will not do anything for scars and black spots. You will need some procedural intervention along with other special medicines.
Word of CAUTION: Avoid pregnancy while on isotroin. Use contraceptives

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.

Hello, Isotroin medicine needs to be taken as a proper course under supervision of a dermatologist or chances of relapse are high. It does helps a little for pigmentation but can not use it just for marks. There are many treatments available for acne marks and scars. You can contact us to know more or book an online consultation.
