How would doctors recommend i treat pimple redness?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't try: The red after a pimple is resolving is the new vessels healing the area. You need to control you acne and prevent new lesions. If a salicylic acid wash or topical benzoyl peroxide hasn't cleared you in two weeks, get with your physician.
