Anyone know what is a home remedy for acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Plenty: However, none of them work. Acne's a complex interplay of chemicals and bacteria that no home remedy can touch. This is the 21st century and meds such as topical Clindamycin (with a retinoic acid derivative if there are lots of blackheads) should be dirt-cheap. You owe it to yourself / your teenager to use the science that your tax dollars have paid for. Good luck.
