Quite simply the best acne treatment is the one that works for you. There are volumes of treatments on the market today to treat and control acne. Billions of dollars are spent every year on products and that does not take into consideration the prescriptions. The important thing to remember when researching and trying acne treatments is that all treatments don’t work for all people. Some treatments work great on some people and not at all on others. Why is this statement true? Not everyone has the same type of skin or the same type of acne. Therefore what works best for you may not work at all for me.
Treatments modalities are over the counter topical solutions and cleansers, prescription topical and oral medications, lasers, chemical peels and microdermabrasion. It takes time for acne treatments to heal and clear the skin. Most solutions do not clear the problem in a few hours or even days; it can often take up to 2 months for real clearing to occur. Early treatment works the best to prevent lengthy healing times and to prevent scarring. |
