Asked for Male | 18 Years
I am 18years old and suffering from acne problem from almost 4 years . What should I do now?
Answered by Samruddhi Bhartiya
Medicated treatments such as following can help:
- Benozyl peroxide (main function of which is to kill acne producing bacteria), - salicylic acid (encourages exfoliation),
- retenoids (prevents inflammation and pimple formation),
- azelaic acid (anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory),
- topical antibiotics (destroys bacteria along with discouraging inflammation).
Caution: While easily available in the drug store nearest to you, but for other options you will require clinical prescription, and even for the ones mentioned above, a doctor will still have a more effective concentration available for same. They make your skin more sensitive, so with expert guidance you would know what kind of sunscreen to use and in how much amount to make utilize.
Advanced treatments: if neither OTC drugs nor stronger prescriptions of doctor works, then there would be advanced options available as well, such as laser resurfacing, chemical peel, dermabrasion and microdermabrasion.

As a part of basic skincare routine, begin your day by using either a face wash foam or gel which matches with your skin type, then apply moisturizer, followed with a sunscreen. Repeat the above steps at night, just by replacing sunscreen with a night cream - and for all these products, you need to know what ingredients they contain and which you are supposed to avoid while buying skin care products meant to cater people with your skin type and issues.
