Please don't self treat. Zinc is not the treatment for cystic acne. Please send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment

Zinc alone will not help get rid acne.
You need topical medication or oral medicines depending on what stage your pimples are.
Please get your pimples treated else they leave behind pigmentation and scars.
Kindly consult online for proper treatment guide.

Hello dear. While yes, zinc is an essential part of the treatment, it is not sufficient to treat cystic acne. You will need additional medicines, even injections, depending on the grade of your acne.
For best results, share pictures of the face via online consultation and follow the prescription
