How long does it take to see results on acne from doxycycline?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2-3 weeks: You may wish to add topical Clindamycin with or without a retinoic acid derivative. If you do not get a satisfactory result after 6 weeks, consider a dermatology consult for the big guns -- more unpleasant and more dangerous but hugely effective. This is the 21st century and nobody needs to have unwanted acne. Good luck.
