What to do if i have acne and i want to look pretty?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Treat the acne: Forget "pop" treatments. The disease is not related to lifestyle or hygiene. If topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated has not cleared you in two weeks, get with your personal physician for effective prescription-strength treatment. The illness cannot be cured but can always be managed.
