Hello,
Welcome to health care magic.
Acne is a chronic problem and requires maintaince treatment even after all the lesions have subsided. You could continue to use topicals like clindamycin, clarithromycin with a benzoyl peroxide with adapelene combination. You could also try salicylic peels . Have a healthy diet rich in coloured fruits and vegetables. Drink plenty of water. Stay away from cosmetics with a creamy base and use water based ones. Hope this helps
Take care.
