Acne care: Acne care involves an entire regimen, not just one prescription.If your dermatologist told you to do a variety of things, then your optimal results will be if you do everything they instructed you to do. Using these medications often have side effects or only work if done together with other treatments. While the med alone may help,it will not be the optimal care for your acne unless you do it all
