Many treatments avai: It is best to see a dermatologist so that they can evaluate the type of acne you have, and then place you on the appropriate medications. While waiting for an appointment, start some benzoyl peroxide cream which is over the counter, and try washing with cetaphil foaming face wash for oily skin..

See a physician: Your doctor will prescribe medications, creams, and laser therapies that can get your acne under control. You will need salicylic face wash, and you may want to consider avoiding stress and sun damage which cause acne to worsen. Get more sleep and know that male hormone also sets off acne. Although it is a life long disease it can be treated and gotten under control.
