Severe acne
I've had acne on my face, on and off for 2 years. But they were never that severe or permanent. But since 2 3 months, my full face has covered with acne and I have tried many things to get rid of them. Home remedies and Retino-A Tretinoin Cream 0.05%. But it just got worse and now my entire face is full of acne and its red. Acne size is quite small and it's spreaded on forehead cheeks and sides of the face. Very small bumps all over the face. Please help me out with this. It's really irritating my skin and after the usage of Retino-A Tretinoin Cream my skin has peeled off a little and everything I apply, even moisturiser is giving a burning sensation.
