What can be done about acne without medicines or creams?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Outgrow it: Until that time comes, your patient is going to need a real, evidence-based rx. Home remedies will disappoint you. Acne is a serious, chronic disease that often has a devastating impact on physical and emotional health. Benzoyl peroxide is the starting rx and if it fails, you have an obligation to get your teen to an evidence-based physician.
