Can you tell me what is the best acne treatment for 11 yr old girl?

Benzoyl peroxide: 5% 2x/day topically. If this is not enough, her physician needs to add something else. Being a teenaged girl is difficult enough without acne. I'm glad you are doing something for her. Best wishes.

Not without exam: Acne is a label that includes a variety of forms/intensities of skin change. The treatment of each type differs, so there is no single answer. Please discuss this with your kids doc at your next visit, or schedule one if it has become a problem.
