What can you do to prevent pimples before they start?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pimple prevention: In many cases, you cannot. Most people get acne due to hormones during puberty. In general, cleanse the face with a gentle cleasner, use non-comedogenic (ones that do not clog the pores) products, and try not to let the hair fall down onto the face. If one uses make-up, use ones with few ingredients and is oil-free.
