Vitamin a and e for acne effective?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: You'd make yourself sick if you took enough vitamin a pills to touch it. Topical agents related to vitamin a (retinoic acid family) help some especially if there are a lot of blackheads. You deserve better; your family physician has cheap and effective medicationsl.
