A member asked:

Are there some effective ways to clear my acne/forehead?

Dr. Coyle Connolly answered

Clear : A dermatologist will be able to treat acne prone skin with a combination of topical antibacterials and topical retinoids. At times oral antibiotics or oral vitamin a (accutane ) may be recommended.
