Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have acne on face and dermatologist advised you combination of Cap isotane,Emodel wash and Benzac which is a effective way to reduce acne on face. You should use it for short term basis. Apart from that cleanse your face with cetaphil cleansing lotion for acne prone skin thrice daily. Don't squeeze or pinch the lesions. You should use Clindamycin and Adapelene gel at night time. If condition doesn't get well in a week then consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like minocyclin , steroid ointment and may recommend chemical peeling for acne. Drink plenty of water.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
