Question 1

cream for acne marks?

Accepted Answer

None work: The brown spots after acne fade with time, but only a dermatologist can make scars less visible. If that is what you want (most folks you meet won't care unless scarring is severe), lasers, fillers, and surgery are available. These work and you have a right to something more effective than an ineffective topical.

Question 2

does ice cream make acne worse?

Accepted Answer

Maybe : Some studies have shown that high glycemic index foods (high in sugar) and excess dairy may increase the number of acne lesions in some patients. Try minimizing these foods for 6 weeks to see if it makes a difference in your case.

Question 3

is elomet cream be used for acne?

Accepted Answer

Worthless for acne: This won't help. Your best friend is topical benzoyl peroxide, as strong as you can tolerate up to 2x/day. If this doesn't clear you in two weeks, get with your personal physician.

Question 4

is there a cream that cures baby acne?

Accepted Answer

Do nothing: Baby acne is a short-lived condition linked to mom's hormones circulating around in the baby.  And there are other acne-like conditions a baby can have that also resolve on their own.  So, just watching and maybe using a mild moisturizer would be a reasonable temp measure.  But most often nothing needs to be done.

Question 5

can i put some elomet cream on my acne?

Accepted Answer

I would avoid: Using steroids for acne. Focus more on mainstay of treatment, like keeping a cleansing regimen right for your skin type. Benzyl alcohol and other washes to start. After that I would seek professional help.

Question 6

over the counter creams for extreme acne?

Accepted Answer

Need prescription: Over the counter products are either benzoyl peroxide such as proactive or salicylic acid found in maxclaroty. These will not be very effective in severe acne. This will require a cpmbnoation of creams such as a retinoid, and possibly oral medications. This requires vist to dermatologist.

Question 7

do momate cream cures acne and acne spots?

Accepted Answer

Terrible idea: This is a glucocorticoid and will give the bacteria that cause acne a growth advantage. This is one of the worst things you can do for acne. This is serious business, not something for home remedies using prescription-strength medications. Please get with a competent physician for guidance.

Question 8

which pimple cream will stop acne for sure?

Accepted Answer

None: There is no one cream that works for everyone.  Usually we use combinations of creams and cleansers and sometimes oral medications to control our patient's acne.  See your dermatologist.

Question 9

what are some suggested skin creams for acne?

Accepted Answer

Rx: This is the 21st century and i would urge you to move at once to a prescription that actually works. The oral contraceptive pill if usable and acceptable for a young woman may clear acne. Otherwise i start with topical Clindamycin with a retoinoic acid derivative if there are lots of blackheads and benzoyl peroxide if not. If this fails, oral antibiotics; failing this, a dermatologist. Good luck.
