A member asked:
Can pimples or acne will be cured by time without doing anything on them or they will increse the problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No telling when: Acne is a chronic, non-lifestyle-related disease that eventually self-cures, but there is no telling when. I was able to stop taking medication around age 50. In the meantime, having visible acne is a sign of poor self-care in today's world. If topical benzoyl peroxide has not cleared you in two weeks, get a prescription from your physician.
