Persistent Acne
I have very sensitive skin and having acne problem since 3 years. I have tried various medications over this period, and while they have been effective during usage, the acne returns shortly after I stop the treatment. Currently, I am experiencing a significant flare-up, with acne appearing all over my face and spreading to some areas of my neck as well.
Given the persistent nature of this condition, I would like to discuss a potential long-term treatment plan or alternative options to manage and prevent these breakouts effectively.
