A member asked:
I'm curious as to what is an effective acne treatment that also gets rid of balckheads?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Retinoic acid: A regimen that contains topical retinoic acid is the best start if there are a lot of blackheads / comedones. Get with your physician about this; an antibiotic may be a supplement to the retinoic acid if the acne is severe enough to require it. All acne is manageable nowadays by evidence-based medicine.
