How do you make pimples go away?

Acne therapy: Acne is treated with topical medications like prescription ziana or epiduo. For deeper lesions oral medication is used such as solodyn (minocycline) or doryx. See your local dermatologist for therapy.

Start with: Good at-home skin care. Wash twice a day. Use benzoyl peroxide cream on active spots. See a dermatologist and consider Retin-A cream.
