what to do with acne on my face

Hello Ethan Goh

Acne is an inflammatory skin lesion with some obstruction of the oil and dead cells in skin pore sometime infected with bacteria. There are many forms of acnes such as small spots, inflammation, swelling, redness or pus. The common areas of acne are face, neck, chest.

    There are also several ways to treat acne. Gentle washing, avoid further clogging of skin pores by using non comedogenic cosmetics and lotions are important. Additionally, some medications like benzoyl peroxide,topical or systemic antibiotics (by applying or taking by mouth), tretinoin or some hormonal drugs are used depending on severity of the acnes and suitability of individual person.

If it is not improved after initial self management, you will need to see a doctor for more advice and proper management. Hope these help.
