A member asked:
I have noticed that most of smoker people don't have acne at all, i don't think this is a coincidence ! any explanation please ?

Nobody knows: The relationship hasn't been noted by physicians and you may be right anyway. Even if it's true, taking up smoking is a terrible mistake. We can manage your acne -- if topical benzoyl peroxide doesn't clear you, then your personal physician can find the right Rx to add.
