Acne, Microdox LBx, Scars
I am a 40 years male. I have been suffering from acne ever since my teens and this just does not seem to end. My son who too is 15 now has the same problem. I have taken everything even Microdox DT (now Microdox LBx) . The problem still persists. And the acne leave marks on the face too. Is there a solution which you would like to advise.

dear sir , acne in male is a part of genetic effect upon sebaceous glands of the body and as you are telling, your son also gets it. Have a zero oil diet, use salicylic acid face wash and do not pick your nodes. they give you scars. and the scars which are on ace would need plastic surgery in form of excision or fillers or dermabrasions depending upon their status. hope you move in right direction now.
