I was prescribed azento for a month and application of benzac ac 2.5%gel and clinmiskin at night and morning. I wash my face with cetaphil . I am getting married in less than a month and I have 10 odd acnes on my face. It is scary .I am 25 yrs old
Hello, thanks for using Chat Doctor. I will be glad to be of assistance I can understand your concern. Acne is seen in individuals from teenage years till the age of 25 years. So do not worry, I will recommend a good routine.  Hope you have not been picking up on any of the lesions as that will lead to deep scars and pigmentation. You need to follow a routine of cleansing, sunscreen, creams daily. Cleanse your face with detail cleansing lotion for acne prone skin thrice daily. Sunscreen needs to be used daily, Neutrogena would be a good choice a course of tab. Doxycycline 100 mg once a day for a month will take care of the remaining acne. Also taking salicylic peels from your dermatologist once in 2 weeks will also help. In case you are short of time, you can use retinoid acid cream 0.025% and glycolic acid cream 6%on alternate nights on full face for 2 hours every night. And in the morning, application of Bengal ac and clinmiskin should be continued. And using atelier acid cream 10% for 2 hours every evening will also be beneficial. Please let me know your queries.
