Acne, Forming Blisters, Bleeding. Remedies?

My 13 year old daughter has bad acne and has been using Pro Active and the new version of Pro Active called XOut. She had a pimple on her cheek a few weeks ago that later started bleeding and turned into a big blood blister . It gets large and stays perfectly round and filled with blood. If it breaks open it bleeds a lot and then reforms the blood blister. What should we do? Thanks

Hi kharanshu,
Thanks for writing in.

Acne is caused by hormonal imbalance.
Blockage of sebaceous glands causes papules and pustule and cystic acne.
Hormonal work up is essential for proper treatment.

Acne is treatable now.With correct treatment all your pimples ,
scars and dark spots can be treated.

You have to stop using proactive. May be your skin is allergic to it.

Cryotherapy and chemical peeling can give you fast and long lasting results.They are available at dermatology clinics.

Discuss the option of Isotretinoin with your dermatologist.It will have rapid effect.

Hope this helps.

Regards.
