What can i do to treat recurring pimples on my cheek?

Scientific Rx: If two weeks on over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide doesn't clear you, get with your physician. You may be a rx for a topical retinoic acid derivative, the oral contraceptive pill (if you're female), topical clindamycin, a systemic antibiotic such as tetracycline, or a dermatology referral for possible isotretinoin. All acne is manageable today; it's not a hygiene or lifestyle problem. We can help.

Topical treatment : A number of different topical medications may help. Over the counter medications use contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. Prescription options include epiduo, benzaclin, (clindamycin and benzoyl peroxide) aczone and other medications. Sometimes a course of oral antibiotics is helpful. See a dermatologist for treatment.
