Does johnson and johnson's baby shampoo help clear acne?

Dr. Jerome Litt answered

Specializes in Dermatology

SHAMPOO & ACNE: Shampoos usually do not clear acne. Acne medications clear acne. However, with acne one should shampoo often and the shampoo doesn't usually matter. Just get the oiliness off you hair with your shampoo.
