For acne spot treatment which one is safer & better? Salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide?
I find things like benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid spot treatments aren't helping my pimples fade faster. So, instead I use drying treatments. This does kind of help my breakouts, although it sometimes makes my face dry and itchy; suggestions?
I have oily, sensitive and acne prone skin. I currently use a 10% benzoyl peroxide spot treatment - can you recommend a different treatment?
My doctor prescribe me the steroid cream clobetasol propionate to use has a spot treatment for cystic acne on my face and neck is this safe to use ?
I am not sure how this works but I would like to discuss my problem with acne. I have seen multiple dermatologist and have not been happy with the results. I am currently on doxycycline and I use a benzoyl peroxide wash with epiduo and an over the counter spot treatment. I have spoke with my Dr and he thinks I would be a great candidate for Accutane. He wants me to go to another dermatologist but I thought I would try this first. Acne?
