Suggest Treatment For Blemishes, Pimples And Acne On The Face
Question: my facial skin has been blemished and I've had my share of acne bumps for as long as I can remember, until back in the early 2000s I went to a dermatologist that gave me a typical that I dabbed on my face and some antibiotics and in a months time my complexion had cleared. it was the last time I saw my face without blemish or break out. I've move to a different state and it seems that there is not one dermatologist that can help me, they all say the same thing "acne is for ever" which is not true. I don't believe that I need to drive 8 hours to get the cate that I need. I don't remember the typical that she gave me nor the antibiotics, but the typical solution was brown like, in a white vile it had a screen tip applicator, and at firstit burned like hell. I think cause if was summer and I wasn't supposed to be in the sun with it but I couldn't help going out to play ball, but after a week the burning stopped and my facial skin started to peel and within a month my complexion was clear and I had even skin tone. Do any of you know what she may have given me? ??
Brief Answer:
Might be Azelac or Vitamin C serums.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting the query,
It is a wrong illusion that acne is a life long condition. If you are having acne from long time then i would suggest you to consult a dermatologist and discuss about taking hormonal or oral retinoid pill so that you can treat the root cause of acne.
And the solution you are asking about cannot be specified as there are lot of solutions to treat acne like Vitamin c serum, azelac serum, saslicylic acid serum, benzoil peroxide lotion and retinoid lotion. Many solutions will come with with applicator hence it is difficult to tell exactly what your doctor had prescribed.
Any query do get back,
Take care.
