What is considered the most effective acne curing stuff out there?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prescription: Be sure it's really acne. Benzoyl peroxide is the only stuff that works well without a prescription. Your physician can offer topicals but if the acne is severe, systemic rx with an antibiotic or even Accutane (not pleasant, some risks, but worth it) may be required.
