Acne medications: Birth control pills can sometimes be used for minor improvement in acne. You will likely get better results from dermatology medications specifically designed for acne. There are many options. Consider seeing a dermatologist for an evaluation and recommendations. You can do a virtual visit on Healthtap today with one of our dermatologists
