Brief Answer:
Combined approach

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
It is better to go for a combined approach to get rid of acne completely.
Please do the following.
1. Use a combination of adapalene or other retinoid cream and clindamycin.
This will take care of blockade as well as bacterial infection
2. Use a water based sunscreen with spf 30
3. Use a drying face wash like tea tree oil.
4. Its best to keep face covered by cloth whenever possible to protect from dirt.
5. Don’t rupture or try to remove scabs from infected acne, This will lead to pigmentation and scar formation.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
Thank you
