A member asked:

Can you please advise me for the best face cream/gel to remove acne?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Consultation: The most effective way to treat acne is with a multi-attack approach. There are several treatments that can work together. An astringent to dry up the skin, medical grade skin care, check for hormonal imbalance, blue light, levulan, etc. consult a facial plastic specialist or dermatologist. Hope this helps.
