General & Family Physician 's  Response
Welcome to healthcaremagic,
Acne is a common problem specially among teenage girls. The treatment response in case of acne differs from patient to patient.
Treatment for acne includes:
1. Topical retinoids with an antibiotic like erythromycin or doxycyclin
2. Aloe vera gel
3. Keep you face clean.
You need to take the treatment for at least 8 weeks to get improvement. Many need treatment for a few months.
Hope that answers your question,
Regards, Dr.Imaad.
