Dentist Dr. Bibhu Dutt Nanda's  Response
hello and welcome to hcm forum,
faceclin-a gel has antibiotic and vitamin A supplement as its key ingredients,it is prescribed in patients with acne and acne marks on their face.
it is safe to use it over the whole face but certain percautions have to be followed,
like the amount of gel should not be more than the size of a pea,
gel should not be rubbed vigourously over the face,just pat it.
Also use of sunscreen is a must,as your skin will become sensitive to sunlight.
Also there might be slight drying and peeling of skin,
you can apply alvoe vera gel to overcome dryness and itching .
In case itching is severe and persistent then stop the application and visit your concerned doctor.
I wish you good health.
