A member asked:
I was wondering what are some good acne treatments?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Try first: Your single best remedy is topical benzoyl peroxide, strength and frequency of application as tolerated. If lots of blackheads, a retinoic acid derivative instead. Salicylic acid face wash is another option. If not clear in two weeks, phone your physician about adding something prescription-strength.
