A member asked:
Does drinking a lot of water good for your skin, and against acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: It won't help. As before, your best remedy by far is the topical benzoyl peroxide. If you can't tolerate it, a salicylic acid wash or a retinoic acid derivative may be an alternative.
