How Can Acne On The Scalp Be Treated?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.
Clindamycin and retina A are usually given to treat acne on face, so you can use it again.
other precautions to be taken -
wash face frequently with facewash
Drink water as much as you can
Avoid oily foods
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
