What are the effective methods to treat my worsened acne?

Hello,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern.

Firstly, you need to consult a nearby dermatologist to assess the grade and severity of your acne. Alternatively, you can provide us with pictures for a remote review. If the acne is mild, topical anti-acne creams like Clindamycin and Adapalene can be beneficial. In cases of severe acne, oral medications such as Azithromycin or Doxycycline, with or without Isotretinoin, may be prescribed alongside anti-acne creams. As a general treatment regimen:

1. Use a face wash formulated for oily skin to cleanse your face.
2. Apply Clindamycin gel in the morning and Adapalene gel at night to the acne-affected areas.
3. If you have blackheads or whiteheads, consider getting them professionally removed.
4. Avoid squeezing pimples, as this can lead to scarring. It is important to emphasize that acne is a chronic problem requiring an extended duration of treatment.
5. Follow these measures for two weeks and assess the response. Mild-grade acne should show improvement, but severe cases might necessitate oral medication.

Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with them, and take the medicines with their consent.
