A member asked:

Can you tell me how i could ger rid of acne or pimples?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Scientific Rx: If topical benzoyl peroxide has not cleared you in two weeks, get with your personal physician. All advice about hygiene, lifestyle and diet are bogus, as are all pop remedies. Acne can't be cured, but can be managed until it self-cures.
