Question 1

i usually apply uniflex-n cream (betamethasone 0.1%, neomycin 0.5%) to prevent pimple from growing bigger at my face. it works. is it actually safe?

Accepted Answer

No: This is not useful for acne. Neomycin is of no value for any use on any skin problem. Betamethasone is a potent steroid which should not be used on the face. It increases risk for glaucoma and cataracts. Repeated use on the face, especially young women, may lead to a condition called "perioral dermatitis". When this occurs it seems to get better when Betamethasone is applied, only to rebound when.

Question 2

it's okay to use celestone-m cream for acne right?

Accepted Answer

Terrible idea: Betamethasone will interfere with your body's ability to fight the bacteria that cause acne. The pimples may regress as the bacteria overgrow, but they will have won and your disease will get worse. You are asking for a secondary infection, and if you keep doing this, the skin on your face will atrophy. Benzoyl peroxide and your physician are your two best friends.

Question 3

can betamethasone dipropionate cream help acne?

Accepted Answer

Not a treatment: While Betamethasone may reduce very inflammatory acne temporarily, it a very strong steroid and should not be used on the face.  It can cause thinning of the skin, discoloration, small blood vessel formation, and even create more acne.  Try instead over the counter preparations with benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid.  If you still need more treatment, please see your dermatologist.

Question 4

do clotrimazole and betamethasone dipropionate cream treat acne?

Accepted Answer

No!!!: Topical corticosteroids will suppress the immune response, and enhance the production of sebum.  Systemically, this class of meds actually causes acne.  The only barrier to your being treated effectively is a dysfunctional health care system.  I start with cheap topical clindamycin; systemic tetracycline works for tougher cases; dermatologists must rx "the big guns" which are extremely good.

Question 5

i have oily skin. can i use any skin ointment to reduce my acne marks? or can i use adapalene 0.1% gel + (betamethasone+gentamicin) cream? today, it's 2nd day i used mixure of above mentioned gel and cream and then apply on my face. is it safe?

Accepted Answer

: I would stop what you’re doing and talk with a clinician first. Pursue a Telemedicine visit on HealthTap if you have no primary care physician. Betamethasone should not be used on the face without clear indication. Acne treatment takes weeks before clear effects, it’s best that you start on the right path early, rather than messing around for weeks on your own.

Question 6

i am 19 y / o female. i have acne+acne marks on my face. i think its because of puberty. i have oily skin and i am using pea sized adapalene 0.1 gel by mixing it with little bit amount of (betamethasone+gentamicin) cream. can i use it daily?

Accepted Answer

: yes.

Question 7

21yo female, std free. small pimple like sore on lower right vulva. was prescribed clotrimazole with betamethasone. its been 2 months and no change?

Accepted Answer

New Doctor?: A pimple like sore is not a fungal infection or something that a steroid cream would be best to treat.  Perhaps you need to tell the physician that the treatment plan failed or find a new physician with some expertise in diseases of the skin.

Question 8

sir is fairlite creams remove pimple's dark spot also ?

Accepted Answer

It may not: While Fairlite is advertised to treat melasma or the darkening of skin from the overproduction of the pigment melanin, this is likely not the mechanism for a dark spot scar from a pimple. The pimple dark spot results from inflammation. Another drug, topical hydroquinone is advised possibly followed by topical retinoids (Retin-A like creams)--may need prescriptions. Good luck!

Question 9

what creams can remove pimples scars the permanent redness on the face?

Accepted Answer

A few options: First, if the scar is red or swollen, use an over-the-counter cortisone cream to calm the skin. You can also do laser therapy or filler therapy, within one to three sessions, laser skin resurfacing using fractionated laser technology can even out the skin surface and increase new collagen formation to help fill in acne scars. Wear plenty of sunscreen, sun makes the scars worse. Hope this helped :].

Question 10

i have a pimples and their spots on my face which cream is best to remove this plz suggest i have a oily skin?

Accepted Answer

Wash or cream: I would suggest trying a wash and/or cream with benzoyl peroxide as it is easy (at least here) to obtain and tends to work fairly well. If not, salicylic acid works as well but not quite as well for more significant acne. If these don't work, I would suggest a visit with your doctor for prescription options such as a topical retinoid . Good luck!
