A member asked:

I keep getting pimples on my face, even after scrubbing and cleaning and moisturizing. should i avoid moisturizing creams , do they clog my pores?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Really treat it: Moisturizing creams aren't the key for managing acne. Hygiene, like diet and lifestyle, has nothing to do with acne despite what anyone else has told you. You're a man. Topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated and/or retinoic acid. If that doesn't clear you in two weeks, you need prescription-strength medications your physician can provide. Acne's not curable until it remits on its own. Manage it.
