I get acne mostly around my mouth and cheeks. also have acne scarring.. what do you recommend to control breakouts, and help remove acne scarring?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Scientific Rx: If topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated has not cleared you in two weeks, get with your personal physician. Let the red and brown marks left after acne fade on their own. Depressed scars will require treatment using the special equipment of a dermatologist or plastic surgeon.
