Why Pimple Burns And More White Pimples Coming After Using Asepxia Soap And Lotion?
I bought this asepxia soap and lotion last week for my acne and I been using both.. I wash my face 3 times a day with the soap and The out on the lotion at night and morning.. But now I'm getting more pimples and they're white. Also when I put the lotion on my face it starts to burn the pimples for like 5 secs then the burning fades away. What do you guys think? It would really help if you could help me

Hello and Welcome to healthcareMagic
You seem to be suffering from inflammatory acne.
If I was your treating doctor I would have advised you to use a gentle cleanser for face wash twice daily rather than using a soap. Wasing face just twice daily would be enough, repeated washing giving no additional benefit for acne.
You could also use a topical clindamycin gel for day time application and Benzoyl peroxide gel for night time application along with oral doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for 4-6 weeks, under guidance of a dermatologist.
Salicylic acid peels can also be considered by your dermatologist in addition to topical treatment for acne
take care
